@ShadSterling @jwcph @Remittancegirl I don't expect you or want you to believe anything. I just told my experience into trying to get large groups of people to make decisions to change the way this world works, together.️️♾️

@Remittancegirl Sidebar, I thought of you and your kimono sewing yesterday, for reasons that should be obvious

I cannot think of many other garments that are so respectful and economical with woven fabric. Perhaps the sleeves might seem a little opulent, but hey, they double as very large pockets. I have indulged in flights of fantasy of conversations between kimono tailors and silk weavers:Weaver: "what's with those fucking enormous sleeves."Tailor: *shrug*#Kimono #kosode #rethinking #sewing

@apenkop @Remittancegirl But the thing is, they are also doing a wrong job. There is a sense that politicians rhetoric needs to be explained and understood. Because they are experts at waffling non-statements.But also, it is important that people see when politicians are blabbering incoherently. Because that is also part of the message these people are presenting.In Trumps case, of course, that he is utterly batshit. A fact that some people are not really getting yet.

@emc2 i am so very sorry life went skew whiff for you. Your description of living in a campsite amidst ruins is a powerful one. It must resonate with many, if not materially, then emotionally.

@emc2 Exactly this...If there's a problem, then it lies with the institutions who exclude. Not the excluded.

@Remittancegirl Might get a bit crowded on the window sil, but we'll figure that out.
