If I had a penny for each time this gif was used, I’d have 56 million dollars. Alas.
The thank you cursive gif is one my team created circa 2021.
I celebrate Christmas and Kwanzaa. The principle of the first night is #Unity.
An excerpt from Toni Morrisons Beloved:
“Here,” she said, “in this here place, we flesh: flesh that weeps, laughs; flesh that dances on bare feet in grass. Love it. Love it hard. Yonder they do not love your flesh. They despise it.
They don’t love your eyes; they’d just as soon pluck em out.
No more do they love the skin on your back. Yonder they flay it. And O my people they do not love your hands. Those they only use, tie, bind, chop off and leave empty. Love your hands! Love them. Raise them up and kiss them. Touch others with them, pat them together, stroke them on your face ‘cause they don’t love that either. You got to love it, you!
And no, they ain’t in love with your mouth. Yonder, out there, they will see it broken and break it again. What you say out of it they will not heed.
What you scream from it they do not hear.
What you put into it to nourish your body they will snatch away and give you leavins instead.
No, they don’t love our mouth.
You got to love it.
This is flesh I’m talking about here. Flesh that needs to be loved. Feet that need to rest and to dance; backs that need support; shoulders that need arms, strong arms I’m telling you.
And o my people, out yonder, hear me, they do not love your neck unnoosed and straight.
So love your neck; put a hand on it, grace it, stroke it and hold it up. And all your inside parts that they’d just as soon slop for hogs, you got to love them.
The dark, dark liver-love it, love it, and the beat and beating heart, love that too.
More than lungs that have yet to draw free air.
More than your life-holding womb and your life-giving private parts, hear me now, love your heart. For this is the prize.”

Listening to this interview on 2x speed. Difficult listen for multiple reasons. Worth the time though; diversifying perspective.
Lots of CR surfers on Nostr. Would love to see more CR Merchants on Nostr. What’s being sold in the community and how Bitcoin is utilized for overall gains 🌐

Watching #Netflix with the fam and a Superman commercial comes on.
Dad: “a Super dog named Krypto?”
Me: “Crypto? Like Cryptocurrency?”
Brother: “No like Kryptonite.”
Dad: “🤦🏿♂️Oh my baby. Someone please get her a book.”
Power Nap.
We put a lot of energy into certain days in the year and my strength always goes out to those grieving or having a hard time coping. ❤️🩹
Words are just words in all sense of the, word.
