So, politicians want the ultra wealthy to pay less taxes so they can spend more money on buying their souls?

Mixing collagen into my coffee every morning realizing I am mixing potions made from the pulverized bones of animals in the name of longevity - my hair and nails growing at breakneck speed.
Witchy.

The City in Glass by Nghi Vo
A love story to a city that spans centuries through the eyes of an unaging - but not unchanging - demon. A perspective through time and immortality.
Loved it!

Just finished The Chosen and the Beautiful by Nghi Vo. Their writing is like a song peppered with jaw dropping analogies. As a magical realist retelling of a classic story, I was amazed at how dreadfully relevant the political clime in it is to ours today.
I also adore Vo's Singing Hills Cycle.

It was so warming to be able to share this poem at the weekend's past Winter Gathering.
I heard it from my girl @theferocity.bsky.social on Vibe Check and was like "oooh I am saving that for Winter Gathering jic" and guess what, it came up.
Read it out loud to yourself or friends for full effect.

I created this zine about weaving for an upcoming school makerfair I am tabling. Should serve well for years to come!
It is an 8-page mini zine made from a single sheet of paper.
