One thing at a time, people. One thing at a time.

(It's me, I'm people. People with a to-do list as long as my arm.)

Yeah. 😒🙄😕

Israeli attacked a residential building in Gaza City and, according to Al Jazeera, killed and injured more than 70 civilians with most of them still under the rubble.

Please note re: today's ceasefire ⤵️

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says:

"Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

After school poetry class for 4th and 5th graders starts today. Hoping this lends some light amid all the terrible.

At the last second I pulled down the book of poems by my first ever 4th grade class and omg if my heart isn't melting.

I’m sharing a Palestinian account every day and today is Dina. Dina’s husband was taken by the occupation when the family was displaced from Rafah last May. She has two small children Jouri, 9 and Zain, 6. She is all on her own trying to keep them alive in a shoddy tent.

Yeah this is not normal. But remember the cops bombed a building full of US citizens in Philly in 1985. MSNBC is only talking about this fascism now because it's affecting white people

Yesss, this has gotta become standard

--> (see quote.) If art has helped me feel more alive, then let my responsibility be to help others feel more alive (through art or any other means), & to turn this aliveness I'm grateful to access towards our collective thriving. (fin)

(also ty @guante.info for inspiring a little Sunday musing 🙏🏻)

--> I supposed I'm mostly paraphrasing Howard Thurman (had to go look up the quote as it floated around my brain), just adding on the idea that ONCE people come alive, it's our responsibility to turn our aliveness toward some part(s) of the struggle for justice... & now I'm thinking of Morrison. -->

--> & I have to relearn over & over how that cynicism is the opposite of the earnestness we need for solidarity and revolution.
I keep making art bc it makes *me* feel more sane & more human. The way we're headed, we're going to need people grounded in their humanity. -->

--> beyond the artmaking itself. Writing / painting / carving keeps the wolves of my brain at bay. I am more grounded and resilient and less prone to despair. Which means I'm able to show up for neighbors, community, world.
I get judgy of mine & others' creative projects sometimes -->

I've been thinking about this (creativity / meeting the moment) a lot lately, especially in these past 2 years of livestreamed genocide. I've realized that even if art isn’t life-or-death, I would say for me it's a matter of "alive-or-death." It's about what an art practice enables me to do -->

I have a full day today, but I woke up early to put this edition of my newsletter together because I need you all to have this rundown of what we've been up against this week in Chicago as the federal assault on our city continues. To ignore these developments would be a damning mistake for us all.

Yup!

Correct QT lol

Remind me, are privacy screen protectors woke, or gay? It's gotta be one of the two, because every single one of these fuckwits refuses to use them.
