It’s a text I wrote for a special issue of a Ukrainian gender studies journal, exploring feminist solidarity. In it, I critically analyse dominant Western and global feminist responses to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, “anti-war” manifestos and contemplations made by Judith Butler and Jasbir Puar

it’s quite insulting actually …. what about people who want to genuinely interact and just post their contemplations and ruminations for the day. how does the system determine they are genuine vs “engagement farming” or “spam.” you don’t train a machine unless you feed it keywords. curious.

Was a musical high-flyer.
But his religious contemplations
Led to Andalucinations. 🙂

You couldn't be more mistaken. He is harboring a trove of deep contemplations. And he is keeping it all to himself. Outwardly pretending there is nothing there.
Thus protecting it from the unworthy. Food wardens.

Rewatching I am Not Your Negro, the James Baldwin documentary. His contemplations on being an American are still so relevant (which is a fucking tragedy), and his analysis of the moral depravity of white people- whew. Moral monsterhood.

looking at my bed when the sun is not out: Dread. That is an evil place. When you lay down your mind will be assaulted with Contemplations

Les impudeurs de mon vide
Les interlude lumineuses de mon cœur déchirent la nuit
Que ça me tord le bide
Ces contemplations d’étreintes en silence qui me fuient

"The Cosmos is all that is or ever was or ever will be. Our feeblest contemplations of the Cosmos stir us—there is a tingling in the spine, a catch in the voice, a faint sensation, as if a distant memory, of falling from a height. We know we are approaching the greatest of mysteries."

With all his recent contemplations about death, Donald Trump has come up with his epitaph, to be placed on his tomb: "Here lies the greatest creature that ever walked the Earth".
Er. No. Sorry. That was Benito Mussolini.

Some contemplations and indulgent arts of Sheep, my Faris from Blades in The Dark.
I keep finding good references for their physique and never acted on it, so I decided to bite down and do something about it.
Also fighting to keep my art pace.

Waking to my bellwether thoughts
Attempting to reset them with snooze
Persistent contemplations
Convicting me before the floor and feet
But I laugh it off
Predictions are a guess
Time to live and really find out
