Resonating 🎶
I really like that I found Moondog "Bird's Lament" again. I wanted to find it again a while back. I didn't want to look back through a lot of old posts to find it. That's not my favorite thing to do. Tonight that one seems good for everything! It's good for remembering my younger self, who was kind of discovering a world of more wealth and privilege sometimes, and who used to wonder if she would create something important in the future. It's good for the part of me that gets into a weird headspace in wanting to know more about what Anne Frank was reading, including gossipy teenage novels. It's good for the part that thinks about Christine de Pizan. It's good for the part that wants to escape and the part that wants to tune in. It's good for the part that thinks like the placement of the planets and the stars can affect things. It's good for the mystical part. It's good for the part that wants to be more centered and grounded, too.
And then, what else is there to listen to...

My brain's going into a weird area where I might either want to watch "Hedda" again or read that "House of Dolls" book again. But I hate to say it. But I'm probably going to choose the dinner party. Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why? Why....
It's so thoughtful of you to consider others.
And encourage them to take a break from all that stressful worrying, right?
There are changes in attitudes underfoot.

And by the way, I have acquired some pretty clothes this year.
And yet, having more pretty clothes still does not seem more important than having human rights.
Thoughts?

Sometimes when rich people are making excuses for selfish behaviors and attitudes, it kind of reminds me of the practice of killing human beings and calling it "collateral damage."
Why? Why are they doing this?

Can sing it to the cat who also napped all day.
Today needed to be a day of rest.
It's just so nice to be able put the shades back up again after a day of keeping them down and napping and drinking liquids and taking supplements and fending off the bad headache and having other weird dreams but I forgot to record them.
Hello again, world.
Just had a have to take care of your health now dream.
I admired a big cloud outside. Then I got a headache and had to draw the shades and I fell asleep. In my dreams I passed by a sick dog and I felt a lot of empathy for it and it followed me and it kind of latched on to my body. It followed me to a new house and there it was running around and acting healthier. But it was chasing other cats and dogs and I was getting warnings about that dog and then I had to rescue a cat from it and I thought I was rescuing a black cat but when I took it upstairs away from the dog it was orange and also started having a seizure so maybe it needed extra medical attention. It is still true that vulnerable creatures need help. Sometimes the vulnerable creature is a human being that needs help. Sometimes you need help. Sometimes you have to help yourself first.
But I do think some of them used to care.
And sometimes they show their potential for being caring.

"Citing ICE Threat, Global Friends Will Not Feature Refugee Students" | KNOX News Radio, Local News, Weather and Sports
"Citing Immigrations and Customs Enforcement as a threat, Global Friends Coalition has chosen not to feature refugee students at a special day this weekend.
The Downtown Farmers Market is set to feature World Refugee Day Saturday, June 13th.
Global Friends will feature art an six-word essays from refugees, but an annual performance by refugees will not take place.
Cynthia Shabb, Global Friends Executive Director, says gathering refugees in one place may invite them to be targeted by ICE. She spoke of citizens being frustrated that the event has to be approached in this way with the climate toward immigration in the nation."
Hmmm, Biblical Womanhood.

When I looked up "Tiger, Tiger" by Margaux Fragoso, I found this review for another book instead.
"Confronting the Silence: a Review of 'Sad Tiger' by Neige Sinno, Translated by Natasha Lehrer"
"I wouldn’t say that there’s some sort of evil, instinctual or articulatable impulse to rape that everyone is struggling to tamp down at all times. Rather, I think what Sinno is circling here is closer to Hannah Arendt’s observations at Adolf Eichmann’s trial, the writings in which the philosopher coined the famous phrase 'the banality of evil.' I think evil rises under circumstances and systems of power that allow, nay, want it to flourish; systems in which losers and egomaniacs are rewarded for trampling and transgressing upon those smaller and weaker than themselves."

Now I am remembering when I met a compassionate young man who was very fond of this song.
The Wallflowers - "One Headlight (Official Music Video)"
https://youtube.com/watch?v=Zzyfcys1aLM&si=XNC56DySkiTm6T9p
He helped me and my sister. We went out to eat with him, and he told her things would get better. That was great. I feel appreciation for how that happened. I wonder what else happened with him.
He was a very tall and good looking and fit and blond. But apparently, he'd undergone a transformation after going through some really traumatic things and taking some antidepressants that had made him gain weight. He got mad that people treated him better after he got better looking, when he was the same person inside. Yeah, he was kind of cool in that regard, too.
I never knew somebody like him was going to help somebody like me! And not just me, but my sister too! He didn't look at her with disgust just because she was taking medications that had side effects. He was way nicer than most guys.
I think actually, though, that some people are raising the bar for what's expected of young men nowadays.
What did you learn about what Patriarchal Society believed the ingredients to success really were?
Obviously, abusing and abandoning the vulnerable was QUITE high on the list. And as far as taking care of the environment goes...🥀
Might want to think about wising up.
"I'm going to enjoy myself no matter what." Feels kind of like what they'd want you to do to justify rape culture, honestly.
Hey!
So, how come you didn't end up medicated in an institution or homeless???
Or did you???
Actually, a lot of people have had those experiences!!!
Patriarchal Culture must fizzle out for our survival.
The man I live with has been so much more tolerant of a neurodivergent woman than the average individual in today's society. Not perfect, but probably a lot of the reason why I didn't end up medicated in an institution or homeless at any point was because he was tolerant enough of someone who's different from him to have more compassion than the average individual. But he was made to feel different at a young age, too, for other reasons.

O Friend, I have to heal from this experience of knowing we weren't expected by our Society to be very good to each other, or to ourselves, not as much we could be, and all that's unresolveable in this lifetime, like inequity, can be so much to grieve. So I will ask the universe for more help with turning over a new leaf.

Soup and so much more...
"Pepper pot stew was survival food for the poor and a path to freedom for Black women in early Philadelphia"
I can change. I can change. I can change.
I can remember that I was really great about tapping into spiritual stuff and I read lots of spiritual books as a young person and then when I began to be a teenager there was lots of turmoil. And during this time as a young teenager, I remember hearing about the Los Angeles riots, and it felt like we were far away from that stuff in the Pacific Northwest. Well I guess something in the universe saw me ask the question. Why would people be so violent and riot, and the adults around me at the time said they didn't know. But I suppose part of me needed to know. I feel like I know more than enough about that now. So how about I get back into enjoying some cozy spiritual stuff again? Well, that's what I'm thinking about at this time.
I'll figure it out. I'll figure it out. Of course, I'll figure it out.
Right now, I don't care if I never have kids or a career because I have so much trauma to heal. That's how much I have to heal. That's how big it is. It's a big project. I'm not like those other people. I have to heal my trauma more than they have to heal their trauma. It's in my body.
I'm worried I don't cry enough.
I wonder if I cry a lot more if that could be super good for my internal organs.
It's about healing trauma in the body. And elsewhere, too.
I feel kind of like I'm a sick person in need of healing. And sick people just need calm energies and friends and healers. They don't need too much extra crazy stuff going on.
It's Waterloo / Alamo stuff!
I'm sorry, I'm so busy learning how to be a better human being to myself. I am just so completely caught up with this project right now. Someday, maybe you'll understand better how challenging it was.
Maybe it's the next step on the healing path.
Maybe I'll try to be really, really good to myself everyday. I'll make a big project out of it. I'll make a diary of it. What nice things did you do for yourself today? I can ask. I'll learn how to self-love in a way that's good for humanity. And then if things get weird and if I get thrown off course either because oh something triggered a trauma or oh something's going on with the PCOS or perimenopause or whatever I'll just practice the art of radical self-forgiveness. And self-care. What about that?
I used to be a fun, younger person who liked to take road trips. 😭
Too bad some people weren't at the babysitter's house in upstate NY with me to see what that felt like. Oh well, I guess then there wouldn't be as much interesting adult conflict to resolve now. Ugh! I'm so tired. Jesus, take the wheel! As some would say. I can't believe things used to be so different. And not as stressful, in my opinion. But then, there were still some big problems to deal with back then, anyway.
It's pretty to be able to imagine things like that sometimes.
Maybe some people can work with you in the future if they are interested in creating something new. Maybe some kind of mutually beneficial creative project could happen when certain kinds of still triggering things are feeling much more healed and just better in a lot of ways.
Best wishes for better health.
It's been quite a lesson to learn that some things which can feel quite normal and enjoyable for others are just not going to be the best way for you to be able to heal and feel more balanced. And that what you may need to heal won't be very easy to get when you're around certain people or in certain environments.
I think tea and prayers are a kindness.
I can't work with some kinds of people right now. I have to deal with my own stuff and heal more trauma first. At least now it's more about present life stuff instead of past life stuff. I guess.
This is good.

And I hope you meet people nicer than you. If you end up reincarnated in the kind of situation where you get kidnapped and put in a facility.

Sung from a younger point of view...
Weezer – "Go Away"
https://genius.com/Weezer-go-away-lyrics
Songs like this. But instead of just being addressed to a boy who cheated on a girl, its addressed to the older people who cheated the younger people by aligning themselves with toxic Patriarchal values which were very discriminatory and harmful and now of all times they should know better and they don't, and they act like they're still stuck in some kind of childish stage of emotional development, and now they're making the younger people, including children, do all the work that they should have been doing a long time ago.
Contributing to more suffering out of cowardice and selfishness is not admirable.
Assuming you don't want everyone to die like some sort of horrible genocide is unfolding on top of all the other stuff that's happening, which, it already does kind of feel like a genocide is unfolding, you know people who suffered more than you are going to remember how you acted in this time. Just because you have a bunch of people surrounding you right now who are making you believe that it's okay to be insensitive about what is going on doesn't mean that it's going to look okay in the future.
You could have looked like a helper instead of another hurdle.
You could have been so different. It actually would have been really easy for you to just tweak things in the most minuscule ways and you still could have had a pretty cushy lifestyle and you wouldn't have had to keep on doing the same old oppressive propping up toxic masculinity crap.
It's not my fault if their descendants think they look like Nazis.
After all, if a lot of the narcissistic show business people want to have more in common with the narcissistic Show Business Predator who's in the White House, and they're blatantly acting like it, while immigrants and children are being corralled and and mistreated in the worst ways that they probably can't even bear to bring themselves to imagine...

"A Test of Conscience: Who Would Betray Anne Frank?"
https://cloakinginequity.com/2025/10/09/would-you-tell-them-where-anne-frank-was-hiding/
I think that exploitation of human beings which also results in the harm of children is not very good and should be addressed.
And it's also very bad for the environment. The Mother Earth, which is supposed to nurture us all, and the climate, is not being respected enough.
When some men and women have to prioritize masculinity in order to have a career, and when they act irresponsibly, they are forcing others to play the role of big sister in order to try to do some damage control.
It's extremely painful to see how much other people keep getting knocked down, and are suffering very dire consequences, just so that the irresponsible ones can still "succeed" and play at being the king or the queen in the unwell patriarchal society.
It makes you wish that some of those irresponsible people would start using their imaginations more and start listening thinking a little bit harder about some other alternatives.
Why are we supposed to prioritize masculinity?
The femininity that prioritizes masculinity is the femininity that upholds the patriarchal structure, which makes life so much worse and so much more unsafe for so many kinds of people. But we don't want to think about those kind of people. Why not? What if it would enrich our lives to acknowledge that more kinds of human beings actually exist?

"I GET IT!"
tanishalavernegrant
Honestly, there's this part of me that thinks the successful lifestyle people who've never dealt with any significant problems until perimenopause came along may need to watch themselves extra carefully. So far I think PCOS combined with some other stuff has been worse than perimenopause.
Especially when the whole "You're worthless. Unless you give birth!" Kinda energy is ramping up.
But I do appreciate how the two of them together (PCOS and Perimenopause) have made certain things a little bit extra challenging. Like, I didn't realize how good my metabolism actually was when I was younger, even when it wasn't as good as I wanted it to be.
I'm going to see if I can try think about gardens and not about bad pedophiles who were good at land-owning and gardening and fitting in with sexist people and being worshipped by sexist people. Some of them are probably the same kinds of people who voted for the very ill predator who's currently running things.
It's too bad though.
Also, they have these studies out now that say that spanking children affects the same part of the brain as sexual abuse does so I don't know what they're going to be saying about video games in the future.
Blessings be upon our heads. Instead of more beatings for having a "smart mouth."
"If you raise a child in an environmentally conscious garden that's free of child abuse, you might have the ability to produce a less mentally ill mother!"
Gardening! You can do more of it when you have...
This is such a great segway into environmentalism.
How can you not be smart enough to know this?
Obviously it means that owning land and a house equals child abuse. Oh my gosh these people love the Bible, too. Landowners who abuse children love their Bibles and church attendance. That's another thing they really love. Clearly we know what we I mean they love the most, but we also know what we love, I mean what they love, the second most.
Anyways, I wonder what he's learning about in his next life.
Anyway, you know how there was another uncle who didn't want to visit you but always went up to visit the white people who owned a house and land in the other part of California, and might be reincarnated as a really different person now? Uncles love land and houses a lot, but aunts love land and houses a lot too. And they love the ones who own the land more than they love the ones that don't own the land. So if you happen to be a child who doesn't own land, but gets abused by one of the uncles, who does own land, guess what that means?
Prevention is key!
Anyways, now that we've established that you and your friends think a whole lot of humanity is way less important than the "genetically superior" people and the houses and land that they own, we're really getting somewhere, finally.
You know what, the land looks so much better when people care enough to take care of the climate too.
Isn't it nice to think about the land? And to think about taking care of the climate?
I should reread her book and find out if her guy owned LAND.
We all know that house and land-owning pedophiles are more important than the non-land or house owning pedophiles.

"I'm entitled to treat People Like You VERY Badly, and I received that message many, many times as I growing up in this Patriarchal Society, and so did most of my friends, so this is why we are the way we are. You need to deal with it."

That's your inheritance!
Anyways, enjoy another day of feeling like you're psychologically trapped in a torture cage. Where the facilities are inadequate to meet your needs. Where the most desperate, racist, chauvinistic people of color and the equally sick white people all want you locked away!
You're not even worth as much as a high-heeled shoe.
"You and the brown kids who are locked away in the detention centers are like dirt and trash to the Superior Rich People who really matter. Maybe that's why you felt so Brown even though you're such a European Heritage Person. You must have some weird, 'other' stuff hidden in there somewhere."
Oh my gosh, but you really shouldn't have.
"I made sure to pick the kind of female friends who would let you know that if you were a man they would have a lot more empathy for you."
Haven't I told you this over and over and over again?
"God hates you and he hates your body and your existence because you are an inferior being according to God."
I don't understand why you keep lying to yourself!
"My female friends and my boyfriends are all about how my chauvinistic dad trained me to treat women."
"At least you're not in a concentration camp in this life. Be grateful!"
"Maybe if Your Genetics were more Superior like the genetics of my Fortunate Friends, I would have treated you better."
MY GOD IS COLD AND MATERIALISTIC
"But my heart is as big and special and important as my splendid house on my special and amazing land which I specifically made sure I could own so I could treat the humans I was trained to hate like garbage. That's why my friends and I constantly demonstrate that need to act like we are superior and entitled to shit on people like you, and act like your existence, and your experiences are not important to us, because that's how we get to feel so high and important and beloved by my COLD AND MATERIALISTIC GOD in this patriarchal society!"
Queasy. Emotionally. Upsetting. Rich. People.

You're too depressing to look at right now, so I'm not going to do it today.
Sometimes the way you act makes me feel as though the really bad guys are just symptoms of a lot of people like you being stuck in your own survival strategy.
Of course no one else can be like you.
Especially when it's literally impossible for somebody in my kind of body to do that s***.
That's why it's good that other people are putting more stuff out there now.
I cannot wait for the exhausting people to let their survival strategies run the course so then they can finally start acting like human beings who learned how to deal with their own feelings.
Do you know anybody who likes little towns or babies or toddlers?
What's so great about little towns where babies or toddlers might live that bigger human beings needing a paycheck can't ruin it for them?

I don't think you're as in charge of your family as you act like you are.
Your spouse is still acting like a callous, shallow, racist, sexist, insensitive, selfish, materialistic jerk, and so are you, and so are your kids, too. Thanks to the standards you set for them. I don't understand why being so bad for other people's health has to be so integral to the way you choose to live your life on a daily f****** basis. Why should I want to replicate that stuff? Why. Is there truly no better version of success than the toxic one that you've been putting out there???
How's your brain and your heart holding up?

And I wish their upbringing hadn't made them discriminate against certain people, but...
Look! There's something very unsacred about the whole thing. Well, I hope other people's kids don't inherit the "wrong" kinds of genetics or have to get drafted. That would be so not ideal. And how very exasperating to have to deal with their attitudes on top of all of that, too.
How annoying that is, eh???

It's painful to know that this is normal behavior for you to be around.
And also.
What about the whole idea of certain children getting treated better by Society than others.
That is blatantly happening right now.
What is the deal.
When do people want to have conversations about that.
When is it the right time.
Never?
Tomorrow?
Next Thursday?
People being discriminatory hurts.
I do not have the capabilities of turning myself into a landowning man so sexist women or men will start treating me better.
They can go find my untrustworthy relatives and be friends with them if that's the way they want to be.
There's much to get over about human beings being jerks to other human beings in this lifetime.
Wow! This did make me uncomfortable.

Feeling judgy.
There should be more songs about how glad people are that they could manage to pull off a normal friendly conversation. "That was the best karma ever."
What about this idea...
Maybe humans are meant to pay more attention to what feels sacred. Maybe when there are other forms of love that feel very important to experience but either they seem tempting but then too scary, and then tempting again but then too scary again... Maybe it's because that's not the most important one to pursue and there's something else that's more important instead.
Here's a new idea of something to do with the time remaining on Earth.
There could be many years left yet, but maybe time goes by very quickly too?
The creative project of meeting with another at a holy place like a monastery, or in the mountains, or by a lake or somewhere else, can seem very appealing sometimes. Anyways, there could be something holy or significant or spiritual about meeting in a special place. Something where it feels like some kind of higher guidance could be helping humans with communicating better.
Because there's lots of conflict going on right now, and I suppose when people are very sensitive to certain topics, sometimes conflicting points of view can make it more difficult to have the more enjoyable kinds of communication. That might be talking or might about music or might be about silence. I sometimes wonder why there are so many ego struggles and where they've come from.
I feel like I was able to feel very spiritual at a young age in this life, so it's been interesting to notice how easily I have been knocked off of that path when certain human behaviors triggered some kind of pain, and I have maybe not been as spiritually guided as I thought I would have been when certain challenges arose during this time of being on the planet.
Oh, just these small steps towards progress...

I'll just try to be a little bit more soothing from now on, I guess.
People could play in gardens and be in nature more and I feel like it would be so balancing and so healing. Instead of trying to fix all the problems, just try to remember to feel what it's like to be in a state that feels more balanced and loving, and get used to that feeling.
Hahaha...this needs the deep creepy laugh to make it feel more comical.
Something that's really cool about getting older is: you realize that you can make all kinds of plans and try to make yourself "safe" from something happening to you that you don't want to happen to you; however...
(I watched a video earlier where a young woman was explaining why she was planning out her life in a certain way so that she would never end up in a particular way when she was older, and it just made me kind of wince / smirk. )
Because it's true that you don't know what's going to happen. Something could still happen to you or somebody else, and you're just going to have to deal with it when it does, if it does, but maybe it won't, but it could. I mean, I've certainly seen that that kind of scenario unfold plenty of times.
Anyways, maybe I'm going through another transition now.
I have empathy for people who don't freak out as much about all the stuff that's happening.
It's too much. Plain and simple. They have other things to do with their time.
It's easier for me to freak out about it because I don't have to work full-time right now. Or raise kids that are my own.
I can worry about the children that I don't have to raise because I have time to do so.
But at the same time, it seems like it was sort of my unpaid job to do it.
I don't know. Maybe I need to end my unpaid job.
I think it is ending actually.
I kind of want it to.
Enough.
Calm afternoon mode has arrived.
Today's satisfying "normal person" moment:
A crocheted hat I made and a package of tea I sent over yonder to South Carolina was well received and looks good in the pictures, too.

"So, how come I didn't have the empirical experience of a hippie home birth and get to reap the benefits of all the Mother Earth healing herbal wisdom."
"Because enduring the symptoms of the metabolic disorder and banal Facebook posts was a tougher ordeal and you volunteered for the challenge."
What a brilliant insight! So true.
Quote of the Day by Henry David Thoreau
His famous reflection, “'How vain it is to sit down to write when you have not stood up to live,' remains a powerful reminder that real wisdom comes from experience, not just observation."
Do you think I planned this?
I have wondered about this, and I'm starting to formulate a theory. I have a theory that the Universe needed me to feel more pain about what happened between Beatrice and Ludovico than about what happened with Diane and Henri because look at the Dynamics of Our Time, Man. Look at what they're doing! Hardly anybody gets to be like Diane. Way more Beatrices out there. And yet it seems like it was an incomplete project if I didn't get to acknowledge that other pairing.
Raspberries for lunch. Did my digestive system some good.
How anyone can conduct an either very private or very public rendezvous in a tea garden or coffee shop under these conditions is beyond my capacity at the moment. Sigh! It's probably because there's more good stuff that needs to be discovered.

God might love some witches more than you think, if you're religious.
Some people need feminism more than other people. Some people need poetry more than other people. Some people need more help than other people. Some people just have more needs than others. Some people don't fit in as well as other people with the way the Patriarchal System's been set up. You know, it's like the opposite of poetic Justice, but some sort of poetic Perseverance comes out in place of it: you make a friend, and the friend relies on you to help her make important life decisions, and then you get disconnected from the friend, who writes a book which turns out to be a memoir instead of a novel, which is what it was originally, and the friend's abuser has a certain first name and then years later you find out someone who had a bad impact on your life also had the same first name. What the hell. And your friend dies before you can even tell her about that. But who knows what goes on in the afterlife?
Femininity in flux!

Republicans are great at acting like such corrupt rich people wannabes sometimes.
"Republicans ignore public calls for reforms, throw another $70 billion at ICE and CPB"
https://www.ms.now/rachel-maddow-show/maddowblog/republicans-ice-reform-70-billion-budget
'In a written statement, Rep. Jamie Raskin, the ranking Democrat on the House Judiciary Committee, said, “House Republicans are choosing to hand over $70 billion more in taxpayer dollars to fund ICE and Border Patrol’s chaos in our communities. This is on top of the $140 billion they already gave ICE in their ‘Big, Ugly Bill.’ MAGA Republicans refused to negotiate on popular and essential reforms to responsibly enforce our immigration laws while respecting the civil liberties of our people. I voted hell no.”
“ICE and Border Patrol aren’t targeting ‘the worst of the worst.’ College students, nurses, babies and children, pregnant women, cancer patients, and even American citizens have been rounded up in their lawless, brutal raids. This corrupt agency is making all of us less safe. We need affordable health care, not an open money spigot for ICE corruption and masked federal agents killing American citizens and disappearing our neighbors from the streets.”
Everybody's coping with this type of thing happening to human beings who deserve so much better in a different way these days.
"Marsha Griffin, a pediatrics professor and co-founder of the executive committee of the American Academy of Pediatrics’ Council on Immigrant Child and Family Health, called the period of infancy and toddlerhood 'probably the most harmful time of their lives to have them in detention.'
“'Our immigration system is breaking children,' she said."

Cheese and crackers probably wasn't the healthiest breakfast for this type of female genetics; however...
I remember when I was at the poet Ruth Stone's house and she had a big slice of white bread and a hunk of cheese and a glass of wine and she offered me some and I declined it because I was trying to be good and only eat like hummus and salad that day. Because of PCOS, but it was also because of menstrual cramps which she probably didn't suffer from because she had different genetics from me. But said, with exasperation, "So healthy!" and it was not in a complimentary way. So anyways. She probably would have liked that I ate cheese and crackers. And chocolate. For breakfast.
