Be gay do picnics is my conclusion about this video, which I love. By the end I was in tears, moved by the mom moral. Lately I’m trying to see art that makes me laugh–I need more ways to relax. Laughter is a remedy to stress response. I need it for my health. I wanted… Read More »
Last year I knew I needed to cut back on my responsibilities and activities, but I didn’t know how. Everything I did felt crucially important. But I needed to give more energy to myself, work on my health, and lower my stress. It could be a matter of life and death. I want to tell… Read More »
Hey, how are you doing? Thought you might like this Japanese Funk and Soul on Vinyl (Late 70’s, early 80’s.). I thought it might be fun to dance to–youtube showed it to me. Thank you, algorithm! Yes, I was right. It was fun to dance to. I like that the music was very new to… Read More »

Good morning. I want to tell you why I like radical mental health people best. The question has been intriguing me for some time. It’s no coincidence that most of my closest friends and the people I fall in love with or otherwise share my life with are radical mental health people. So I wanted… Read More »
Oh hey. Happy new year. I’ve been working on this cat. I decided all cats are psychedelic. That’s just how they exist, by default. Meow? I call this All cats are psychedelic. It’s art embroidery. Funny how if it’s done with needle and thread, it’s just a craft. It’s just a stupid lady thing. artists… Read More »
Lately I’ve been using the hashtag Many Gods No Masters. It makes me giggle–it’s a spoof on the common anarchist phrase No Gods No Masters. Yes, I’m a bad anarchist, for being religious. I see God everywhere. She is my favorite. Here’s an arati for the sect of Hinduism I did for 20 years. I… Read More »
