on community.
I should have a lot to say right now but I don't.
I made new horns for my helmet last night. They're sparkly. One pair is sparkly AND it glows in the dark. Take that, patriarchy.
OK, look. There's a lot of rape culture. We all grew up in it and we live in it, and I like to think that we do what we can to help shift our collective course in a less rapey direction, but that's a tall order and it's not easy to shift something so large. It's not easy to be 'mean'.
What I'd like us to do instead of worrying about being mean: be supportive. Figure out how to earn, deserve, and keep the trust of the people we love. Figure out how to build supportive environments full of consent and a network of support and affection. Don't tolerate mean and abusive bullshit. Have hard conversations, but also go for picnics and go skinny-dipping at Walden in the middle of the night just because it's summer and it's hot and we're alive.
We all have power, people. Let's use it to keep building this awesome world we're in.
