There is a theory that watching unbearable stories about other people lost in grief and rage is good for youâmay cleanse you of your darkness. Do you want to go down to the pits of yourself all alone? Not much. What if an actor could do it for you? Isn't that why they are called actors? They act for you. You sacrifice them to action. And this sacrifice is a mode of deepest intimacy of you with your own life.
Anne Carson, from Grief Lessons: Four Plays by Euripides; Tragedy: A Curious Art Form

That's not even all of them. I'm not a huge fan of the term fibre art but this really is it. Wearable art. Look at the geometry of it all! The structure, the chaos, the whimsy! God I love modular knitting
She has lots of very fun socks as well, and even a couple of cowls and fingerless gloves. Go look at her page immediately.

@the-darkness-does-not-bargain would you believe i'd tried before and it didn't work out? looks better this time around- glad i gave it another go!
*sees whatever the fandom is doing* there's a really good story happening on the actual show if you want to watch that instead
Queerness isn't inherently political, actually, it's politicized. I think that distinction carries weight because we often paint ourselves as a sign of a progressive society. But we predate progression and regression. We have always existed. The presence of queerness is primeval, part of the natural state of a species, even removed from our current position standing on the shoulders of giants. We just *are.* Which makes any action against queerness, any cultural upheaval against our expression, that more clearly absurd.

just idly musing
i've never been addicted to drugs or alcohol, so my perspective is quite limited here. but my grandpa was an alcoholic and the idea of an "addictive personality" got into my head after the first time i had alcohol at 13 and craved it every day, intensely, for like six months afterwards
didn't actually steal any alcohol or drink under my parents' noses because i just wanted nice wine, but
idk
- what is the difference between want and addiction
- what is the difference between lack of variety and addiction
- is novelty protective against addiction?
- novelty seems protective against a lot, actually
- some people seem to conceive of themselves as addicted to AI and it reminds me of porn addiction, where like--yes. i believe you are doing something more than you want to do it. but also that's not a chemical addiction and more importantly it is largely DUE TO YOUR MORALS that you conceive of your actions this way, people who use the same amount of AI and like it would not call themselves addicted, ditto porn, yes? i think?
- the gap between "science people" and "arts people," which is definitely false but go with me, seems so tied to perceptions of AI and also increasingly large. "useful, fun, fine" vs "the most evil thing on the planet, a corrupting poison." those aren't equivalent. i don't know any pro-AI people who think it's an unmitigatedly positive revolution and while plenty of my art friends are like "yeah AI is fine sometimes but i object to the labour/IP issues" i feel like more of them are in the "burn it with fire" camp
- a lot of this year has seen me reading books to the exclusion of all else, including food. i don't like that. but reading is Good and Healthful!
- something about, idk, ~all things are good in moderation~
- i prefer working on Large Chunks of a project as opposed to many small steps and having "this is X day" over "let's do X.1 for 20 minutes"
- the beauty of intense focus, the way words feel like fractals when writing is good, the utter hatred i have towards what feels like busywork and requires tiny task switching all the time
- rereading over and over and over and over
- none of us chose who we are; we all choose, every day, who we are
- the sum of your life is how you spend today, and the day before it, and the day before that. hopes and intentions are lovely but it's sad when they're all that's tallied. partially completed work is still done work. nothing is wasted.
- hawks are really pretty
- clothes are really nice
- i really love the idea of everything in my house being thoughtful, thought out, of intention and beauty balanced and bounding. and also sometimes you have an ugly notebook because there wasn't a better color and you needed a notebook
- "enjoy your time" is a damnably difficult instruction. simple, not easy, i think, but is it even simple?
- i'm really glad i'm alive. let's knock on B's door and then go shower

I honestly think Gen-Z and younger simply does not understand how recent widespread smartphone adoption is.
I am not that old, and I didn't have a smartphone until probably late high school. For most of my life, many if not most people were not walking around with a magic internet machine in their pocket that they pulled out and used constantly for everything.
reblog if you remember having to ration your text messages and accidentally opening the internet on your phone was the end of the world

hereâs another hot take you have to receive with an open heart because i have cancer. i think anyone who does anything with yarn but doesnât spin it has superficial knowledge. what is available to you to know without spinning is basically what is available to you at retail. this is the wellspring of many outrageously false commonplaces in the craft world, like âhandspun yarns are only for weft, theyâre not suitable for warpâ, or âthe best yarns for socks need to have nylon in them for durabilityâ.

my 100% failproof way to handle reactionaries asking why i donât shave at all is going âbecause i donât want toâ it works because what they really want is an argument about the merits of feminism, and theyâll draw it out and try to convince you itâs a cult or whatever, but you can avoid it all by sticking to âi just donât wanna. donât feel like itâ and if they argue with you about it you can use your ultimate ability, which is âiâm sorry i thought it was a free country?â which, believe me, they cannot come back from. theyâll either drop it or start harping on something you didnât say, and itâs important you donât take the bait at that point. when they canât argue with what you say, they assume your beliefs and attack those. and you crucially must be visibly baffled at their change of direction because it will make them seem and possibly feel crazy (which they are). âi donât want to shaveâ is a perfect response because truly it all comes down to autonomy and the ability to do what you want. theyâll try to say âfeminism makes you think you have to do thatâ and itâs important to not take that bait. to reiterate that you donât know what they mean and you just donât like shaving and that itâs really weird to look into it that deep. this works i promise
OH i just remembered i meant to ask you about this -- top 5 "waters"/hydrosols? rose water etc. The iranian grocer in my town has a much larger variety than I've ever seen before and I'm always standing there with big eyes
(I'm excluding rose water & orange blossom water because we all know about them, not because I don't like them!)
5. Chamomile water: chamomile tea is great but it can be a little bitter & can also lack some of the more subtle honey-and-apple notes that make chamomile feel so special. It also has a distinctly dried flavour, & sometimes that's what you want & sometimes it isn't. When it isn't, chamomile water is fantastic. Many people who thought they didn't like chamomile became friends with it after I gave them something flavoured with chamomile water. (The delicate, crystalline bitterness of the hydrosol is also a really good counterpoint to a lot of flavours.)
4. Linden blossom water: if you want orange blossom water & yet feel the itch to reach for something a little different, linden blossom water's your gal. It works wherever orange blossom water works, & it's just as versatile & easy to use. Big fan.
3. Ginger water: now, we love the hot, pungent qualities of ginger, but sometimes, in some recipes, that heat is not welcome, & that's when the hydrosol comes in. It's a little fruitier & more citrusy than fresh ginger, & I would describe it as "warm" rather than "hot". Very useful in cocktails.
2. Pelargonium graveolens water: I love P. graveolens as a food flavouring, especially in drinks and pastries. In France you can usually get it wherever Tunisian products are sold as "aterchiya". It's reminiscent of rose, but it's more citrusy & more herbal, with an amber warmth; when you eat it, it also has a cooling effect similar to that of mint.
1. Kewra water: classic for a reason! People often compare it to rose water, but while I agree it's floral & that there are rosy aspects to its scent, it actually reminds me more of jasmine sambac & incense, with honeyed & fruity aspects. Wonderful in rice dishes, & in a lot of other dishes beside.
