while playing lava tag in the fifth grade, I was balancing on the wood border of a rock enclosure part of a jungle gym. I was maneuvering away from “it” when I slipped and a jagged rock split my knee open! I remembering looking down and wondering if I was seeing my own guts or if some rocks had fallen in.

The staple injury of being a kid and having fun. I never grew out of it, and life is still exhilarating.

it’s not bed rotting to rest when you’re tired, run-down, or sick. I can feel where capitalist dogma has seeped into me every time I feel doubt or shame for how much time I’ve spent in bed or doing very little, or the fear that I’ll never be motivated to do anything again. it’s not true! inevitably after only 3 days of solid rest I naturally crave activity, projects, organization, work, and not as penance. rec for rest: screen time of any kind is not the rest I’m talking about… we’re talking rest as a monotask.
