Ep. 1 of @hallierubenhold.bsky.social’s #IntimateHistories podcast really resonates. “History is the story of people, & people’s lives are meaningful & profoundly messy.” Social history, she says, is the counterweight to ‘great man’ history — I think family, local & house historians would all agree.

Hallie Rubenhold challenges the ideas of what history is and the stories it can tell.

@sunaura.bsky.social book 'Disabled Ecologies. Lessons from a Wounded Desert promises to be one of the books that changes my thinking & life trajectory. Grabbed it at library & only on pg 12. Blown away. Fellow #tucsonans - you need to read this. I'm already planning to buy a copy. Damn it's good. 🌵

Yesterday at Tucson Botanic Gardens they had a female mariachi & puppets. Reminded me so strongly of getting the first Covid vax here & there was a mariachi playing. Wept from joy & relief. Enjoy the video.

“like a tree undressing”

‘The Bush’ - #RSThomas
(Later Poems, 1972–1982, Macmillan London)
Text of poem - The Bush. I know that bush, Moses; there are many of them in Wales in the autumn, braziers where the imagination warms itself. I have put off pride and, knowing the ground holy, lingered to wonder how it is that I do not burn and yet am consumed. And in this country of failure, the rain falling out of a black cloud in gold pieces there are none to gather, I have thought often of the fountain of my people that played beautifully here once in the sun's light like a tree undressing.

Biodiversity, justice, beauty & love come together in the fight against the horrors of the Border Wall. The remote San Rafael Valley is an enchanted grassland on the border of Arizona & Mexico. Please help us fight back!
