I hate that when youβre stressed enough your body just starts falling apart. I think it should realize youβre already stressed and donβt need that and start functioning better actually

We don't even know if "Saturn Devouring His Son" is depicting Saturn devouring his son.
People just assumed the painting is of Saturn, but the painter Francisco Goya never gave it a title or left any notes. It could be any random cannibalism.
He didn't even paint it for public display, he painted it directly on the walls of his house.
its probably a normal sign for the economy that all of my adulthood fantasies are like "imagine having your own kitchen living room and bathroom to decorate" "what if i could get on a train" "maybe one day i could purchase a sturdy pair of shoes" "i should save and invest in a single bicycle"
βI want you to do this with me for one month. One month. Write 10 observations a week and by the end of four weeks, you will have an answer. Because when someone writes about the rustic gutter and the water pouring through it onto the muddy grass, the real pours into the room. And itβs thrilling. Weβre all enlivened by it. We donβt have to find more than the rustic gutter and the muddy grass and the pouring cold water.β
β Marie Howe, Boston Universityβs 2016 Theopoetics ConferenceΒ (via mothersofmyheart)
I ask my students every week to write 10 observations of the actual world. Itβs very hard for them.
Ms. Tippett:
Really?
Ms. Howe:
They really find it hard.
Ms. Tippett:
What do you mean? What is the assignment? 10 observations of their actual world?
Ms. Howe:
Just tell me what you saw this morning like in two lines. I saw a water glass on a brown tablecloth, and the light came through it in three places. No metaphor. And to resist metaphor is very difficult because you have to actually endure the thing itself, which hurts us for some reason.
Ms. Tippett:
It does.
Ms. Howe:
It hurts us.
Ms. Tippett:
You naming something.
Ms. Howe:
We want to say, βIt was like this; it was like that.β We want to look away. And to be with a glass of water or to be with anything β and then they say, βWell, thereβs nothing important enough.β And thatβs whole thing. Itβs the point.
Ms. Howe:
Itβs the this, right?
Ms. Howe:
Right, the this, whatever. And then they say, βOh, I saw a lot of people who really wantβ β and, βNo, no, no. No abstractions, no interpretations.β But then this amazing thing happens, Krista. The fourth week or so, they come in and clinkety, clank, clank, clank, onto the table pours all this stuff. And it so thrilling. I mean, it is thrilling. Everybody can feel it. Everyone is just like, βWow.β The slice of apple, and then that gleam of the knife, and the sound of the trashcan closing, and the maple tree outside, and the blue jay. I mean, it almost comes clanking into the room. And itβs just amazing.
Ms. Tippett:
In some basic level, what theyβve done is just engage with their senses.
Ms. Howe:
Yeah, and have been present out of their minds and just noticing whatβs around them, which is β we donβt do. And again, not to compare it to anything. Theyβre not allowed. And thatβs very hard for them. And then on the fifth or sixth week, I say, βOK, use metaphors.β And they donβt want to. They donβt know how. Theyβre like, βWhy would I? Why would I compare that to anything when itβs itself?β Exactly. Good question.
So then you think, why the necessity of a metaphor? Why do you have to use a metaphor now? Not just to do it to avoid it, but to do it to make it more there. And itβs very interesting.
The words and silences we live by. The rituals that sustain us. The poetry of ordinary time.

I am so sick and tired of having to charge stuff every day of my miserable life!! My phone, my watch, my headphones, my vibrator, my backup vibrator, my emergency vibrator, the ancient cursed amulet of darkness that whispers to me....it's too much!!!
even when I draw skinny people I make a point to draw rolls and folds and a little bit of skin if nothing else spilling out from the belt line bc like everyone has these things and it's important to me to include that. I also do this for pervert reasons but that's beside the point.

The thing about how you will talk like a tumblr user for the rest of your life is that usually people wonβt clock it but sometimes youβll meet someone and youβll actually be able to see a look of painful recognition in their eyes when you say some tumblypoo bullshit while everyone else just thinks you had an epic original thought. And itβs gonna make you a little bit sorry you were born
