People live there, too.

A manga page from Tongari Boushi no Atelier. During the Silver Eve festival, Nornoa warns Coco to stay away from the muckpool, a ghetto where magical detritus is dropped and undesirables live. She thinks, "If only he knew... I've already glimpsed down those dark paths, just beyond the sun's reach, and I know... people live there, too." She pictures her friend Custas, one of said undesirables, and his father Dagda, a traveling musician that took him in.

It may be time to say some words out loud to another person

Stop! Are you operating on an arbitrary set of terms and rules known only to you? Have you created an ultimatum or specific if/then scenario for someone else without communicating it to them? Have you considered making a decision and calculated all the consequences, potential reactions to those consequences, and consequences for those reactions before you actually made the decision? IT MAY BE TIME TO SAY SOME WORDS OUT LOUD TO ANOTHER PERSON!

Cotton Field Einsteins

I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

We are a living biology

We break our story into eight parts because there are eight of us to tell it tonight. It is our job to be one-eighths of ourselves. We break our audience into eight clusters. We shift from cluster to cluster. We don’t do rows. We don’t do circles. What we do is cellular structure. We are a living biology. Every part is different each time. Each cluster is different every time. The story is the same. We have been broken so many times we are unbreakable. We have been forced apart so many times we are always connected. That is our story. We are growing smaller and smaller and larger and larger at the same time. It doesn’t matter in what order we get everything. It only matters that we get everything.
