The role of the artist
is to terrify the
oppressor.

Winter Solstice


I don't know when
your darkest day was
this year. I just hope
when you look back
you remember the stars.

Watch carefully,
  the magic that occurs,
when you give a person,
just enough comfort,
  to be themselves.

People be like
"that's not realistic"
as if the entire universe
is not a living miracle
beyond our wildest imagination.

Everything is on fire,
but everyone I love is doing beautiful things
and trying to make life worth living,
and I know I don't have to believe in everything,
but I believe in that.

here's to loving the parts of ourselves we don't want to see. happy new year, friends. 🥂
Love yourself when you fuck up,
when you make mistakes or when you talk too much.

Love yourself when you lose your way, when you
react to things that don't deserve your attention, or
you forget your intentions.

Love your shadows, your wounds,
and especially the things you don't want to see.

Love all of it.

welcome to winter citrus season, friends.
Capricorn

I'm an extroverted introvert.

That means I'll either talk your ear off like
I've done 4 lines of coke, taken 30mg of 
Adderall, and drank 7 cups of coffee OR
I'll be Buddhist monk vow of silence mute.

There is no in between.

Expectations are planned resentments and nobody's got time for that.
black text in the lower right corner on an ivory background reads:

I don't have expectations
anymore. I have requirements.
Respect my time. Match my 
effort. Keep your word. Always be 
honest. Live through the heart.
Stay consistent. Those are my 
requirements.  Not expectations.
Requirements.

have a peaceful Tuesday, friends.
black typewriter text on cream background reads: 

"On Earth, everyone loved
butterflies, but I trusted
the caterpillars more.  I
trusted the ones who knew
they were not done growing."

white text on a black background reads:

My favorite spirits are the ones who get a bad reputation for luring men to their deaths when really they usually just take the form of beautiful women standing alone and men think that, in and of itself, is an invitation so it's really on the men.

@helen-marie.bsky.social moving my way through all my emotions.
black text on an ivory background reads:

notes from a therapist : 

give movement to your emotions – write them out, dance them out, walk them out, sing them out, talk them out, scream them into a pillow, & then take a moment to notice the tiny shifts of calm that your nervous system feels – repeat.

Here's to saving our love from the perpetually burning building. 🧡
a black and white photo of Tennessee Williams sitting at his desk, in front of his typewriter, smoking a cigarette.  underneath the photo are his words:

"The world is violent and mercurial–it will have its way with you.  We are saved only by love--love for each other and the love that we pour into the art we feel compelled to share: being a parent; being a writer; being a painter; being a friend.  We live in a perpetually burning building, and what we must save from it, all the time, is love."

I hope today is gentle with you.
black text on a white background reads:

"Your fatigue is real.
Your overwhelm is real.
Your exhaustion is real.

Don't feel guilty about needing breaks from a world that was never set up to protect your mental health in the first place."

black text on a white background reads:

"heal yourself, but don't rush
help people, but have boundaries
love others, but don't let them harm you
love yourself, but don't become egotistical
stay informed, but don't overwhelm yourself
embrace change, but keep pursuing your goals"

a black and white sketch of a mother and child in conversation:

"What's that mark on your arm, Mama?"

"My smallpox vaccine scar!"

"Why don't I have one?" 

"Because it worked."
