While she was already the goddess of food, Uke Mochi's death guaranteed the world would be filled to the brim with food: for from her body came fish, wild game, and all the grains that make up the Japanese diet. #FairytaleTuesday 🖼️: Soragami

Uke Mochi, supposedly by artist Soragami according to reverse image search, showing a beautiful Japanese woman in an orange kimono with a red obi, rising out of a bowl of ramen full of the usual fixings but with food of all kinds pouring into it from her left hand; steam rises from the ramen. Her hair has leaves of lettuce and cherry tomatoes, as well as sushi, for hair ornaments.

Sometimes you see a thing very much of the present moment, of that time/place & it reminds you of a similar thing from a time past. I saw this party bus at the Golden Gate Bridge vista point & my mind immediately went to bus rides on the Green Tortoise in the 1980s. #SanFrancisco

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’ —Alice Wong

We often see comments on dashcam videos blaming the crash on a seizure, but the percentage of accidents caused by #epilepsy is dwarfed by drunk, distracted, or drowsy driving. Unfair assumptions fuel stigma and distract from the real biggest threats on the road. #EpilepsyAwareness

In these times, I think it great to revisit “La Femme Fatale” by Digable Planets from 1993. It is still THE most powerful, concise and clear discussion on abortion and choice that I have ever heard. It helped me shape my own views. AND it’s written by a black man 🦋. youtu.be/3DfMksmOIME?...

I finally made it to Kehinde Wiley's "An Archeology of Silence" show in San Francisco. Wow, I can't possibly begin to describe the amazingness. It felt so sacred I couldn't bring myself to photograph any of the art... But when I saw the shadow of the giant bronze horse head I snapped this pic.
