have any of you ever read this book, Cherríe Moraga's Waiting In The Wings: Portrait of a Queer Motherhood? because i love this book so much (am halfway through reading it) and yet no sooner do i start reading than i discover a long controversy around Moraga's later views about trans folks…

some July books (i wanted to read more Baldwin since the intensity of Giovanni’s Room, and stupidly missed out on most of Ferrante’s books while our kids were teeny, and Suri’s book is beloved by the local feminist bookstore staff, and Thom’s book comes via @mousyaesthete.bsky.social)

rediscovered this magnificent zine i got awhile ago in chicago, Dewayne Slightweight’s The Kinship Structure of Ferns, which seems to depict a whole lifecourse (love, death, sex, tears, confusion, so many feelings)

i am in awe of the Paul Reuben drag look from 1971

the reality of the current fascism has long since outpaced anything that satire could have envisioned. “please stop calling us the gestapo, says secret police whose behavior is indistinguishable from the gestapo”

In Riga where I’ve come for work, they put us up across the street from this heroic Soviet-era workers uprising art, commemorating a tsarist police massacre of protesters in 1905.

i started thinking i'm not quite sure what to write about here anymore — everyday life feels mostly indescribable, the awful political situation makes me ineloquent, and i'm unsure where to put myself in a world of so many discourses. it's not that i won't write anything; i'm just not sure what.

so i was looking for a romcom movie preview and instead i found this list of autocomplete options about, um, different ways that someone might want to be?

not feeling optimistic about a lot lately, but i do love my current set of books (the Earthsea one is what i’m reading to my kid)

i have this new reading corner where the sun shines in on winter days and it’s hard not to feel some kind of joy about it
