incivility is a bug.

Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole,I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul.In the fell clutch of circ*mstance I have not winced nor cried aloud.Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbowed.Beyond this place of wrath and tears Looms but the Horror of the shade,And yet the menace of the years Finds and shall find me unafraid.It matters not how strait the gate, How charged with punishments the scroll,I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul.invictus by william ernest henley

#taketheflower 🌷"The Art of Asking is a book about cultivating trust and getting as close as possible to love, vulnerability, and connection. Uncomfortably close. Dangerously close. Beautifully close. And uncomfortably close is exactly where we need to be if we want to transform this culture of scarcity and fundamental distrust. Distance is a liar. It distorts the way we see ourselves and the way we understand each other. Very few writers can awaken us to that reality like Amanda. Her life and her career have been a study in intimacy and connection. Her lab is her love affair with her art, her community, and the people with whom she shares her life. I spent most of my life trying to create a safe distance between me and anything that felt uncertain and anyone who could possibly hurt me. But like Amanda, I have learned that the best way to find light in the darkness is not by pushing people away but by falling straight into them."foreword by brene brown to amanda palmer's book 'the art of asking'

amen 🙏"- How do you know if an idea is worth pursuing?- I don’t for a long time. It takes a lot of conversations. If it’s an idea that leads to good conversation where people can have different intuitions, their intuitions can differ from mine, and we can think of a lot of different angles to the idea, that makes me think it has long legs."

If freckles were lovely, and day was night,And measles were nice and a lie warn’t a lie,Life would be delight,—But things couldn’t go rightFor in such a sad plightI wouldn’t be I.If earth was heaven and now was hence,And past was present, and false was true,There might be some senseBut I’d be in suspenseFor on such a pretenseYou wouldn’t be you.If fear was plucky, and globes were square,And dirt was cleanly and tears were gleeThings would seem fair,—Yet they’d all despair,For if here was thereWe wouldn’t be we.if by ee cummings
