(no subject)
this week has been lots of the people's market. two collective members are gone for awhile and i am getting the opportunity to be responsible and informed which is really, nice. somehow it is not so overwhelming because i've gotten the space to get my own handle on it. and it's great. and things are organized and hopefully a little more accessible.
had a freak out earlier this week when a couple friends got arrested and i realized i have distanced myself so much from one of them that there is no way i would know what was happening to them. and i was worried, a little panicked, and more than a little surprised by my reaction. feel like i almost don't have the right to ask to be informed, but also i care. and that is genuine, if at a distance. always has been. they are ok and safe.
watched obama's speech. hard to get over my skepticism and disillusionment, and sometimes hard to distinguish those things from the radicalization i've developed since that last general election. didn't hear much of anything controversial. a little freaked out by the fanaticism i saw, but i think i get it.
