@sadie I do this sound constantly, it drives people nuts 💛

Maybe it's because I love hearing artists talk craft, maybe it's because in spite of being HoH I grew up in a family of musicians, I love hearing people talk about the music they make and how they make it, or other people breaking down a musician's work to its principles. Strong Song's episode on Andor and Friends at the Table Post-Mortems are great for this.

To me being a butch ain't about blue jeans and black tee shirts, flannels and boots, it isn't about fixing cars and woodworking either. Being a butch is about integrity, it's about considering others in all we do. It's about opening doors and uplifting others, it's about being the solid foundation and the rich, fertile soil in which others grow.

People aren't used to that, they aren't used to being considered, it's often scary to them. But I hope that someday everyone gets used to the feeling.

My baseline should not raise people's standards. Everyone deserves so much more love and care. And by everyone this also means you, reader

They were coming, I felt them since Sunday. Something about them makes the poetry flow a little easier

@sadie oh yes I'm sure this friend has experienced this before and can relate

I made a ton of drinking valves for my community to be able to install in their masks and I'm really proud of that

injury as metaphor for an open heart 

Being a loverboy will forever be a cavernous wound in my chest, always fresh, always bleeding, always tender

Anyone have recommendations for leather poets or poetry about leather culture/history?

Working out for the first time in two months after breaking my foot and finding relief in the fact that I haven't atrophied nearly as much as I feared and am in fact actually able to progress.

@TheJen I had to do this last year on a flannel that luckily I had a scrap that was of the same palette. I ended up patching it and using the patche's pattern as a guide to blend the two patterns together in (my own opinion) a way that looked most pleasing.

Every time I read a poetry connection half a dozen new poems grow inside of me

Why mask?

Before covid i used to get sick 2 or 3 times a year, knocked out for a week or two each time.
Since then i've been consistently masking indoors and on public transit. It's been about 7 years since the last time i was sick. I think i gotten sniffles twice since then, barely lasting a day, and that's it.
So this little habit have accumulated me about 6 months of extra quality lifetime, and counting.

That's one reason.

I thank G-d every time you tell me how to help. I thank G-d every time I can make it a little easier for you
