    hell yeah
    self-love self-love self-love

    Concerning suggestions (not to be prescriptive): I. Becoming Lost and Losing Your Way; in a era where nothing seems to work; is a positive vector, even when it feels scary. II. The lens of [fight, weapon, enemy,] collapses be-ing into something binary, which is well understood by apparatuses of oppression. Inhabiting the cracks in crumbling systems allows for ternary evasion: Every day, black slaves fought by singing to each other.
    Concerning self-love: crimethinc-Ferdinand tackles love well; I think you are right. As for self, a non-alienating reconsideration of what the self is may lead to wonderful developments. We are more than just minds, or bodies, or gut biomes.

    Perhaps unrelated thought: When Martin finally called it quits with Dora, he acted in an direction of self-love that encompassed his entire community (& comic & readers & author) as the self, even if everyone was fucked up over it

      Ooh, that’s a lot to think about!

      I’m still working through the links you sent in that other post you deleted (not sure why you did). Mind-altering stuff…
