@compost_funeral yes very much. I have noticed that kids very much love these kinds of stories! often alongside the sweetest of ones, like Little Bear or Winnie the Pooh! I think some of the best storytellers for kids are people who fully remember what it was like to be a kid in the world... @AdrianRiskin

and an adjacent ugh is for all the adults writing about kids lib or being a rad parent/teacher/etc who are keeping the conversation about themselves, evoking adult supremacy constantly-- the adult gaze is a mofo.

@grayhaven i'd have to think about it more.... but off the top of my head. all kids books by (or illustrated by) Julie Flett, and these are more all ages but books by Shaun Tan.

so many of the kid books that are geared to teach kids about radical politics suck hard. they're didactic, ageist, & filled with propaganda crud.
and most kids are like wtaf.

@adamgreenfield at first i was in love with the Kintsugi cover but ofc Kintsugi is about so much more than maintenance... and sounds like especially this person's take on it.. so given what you're saying the cover is perhaps a warning 😛

As the United States races toward authoritarianism, it is using the word “terrorist” on practically everyone, making most of us potential targets of state violence.

"the deepest ideological structure that can be an obstacle with sharing money though is the idea of property. When people don’t actually own property as land (or house), then their money is the property they do have. Property is completely bound up with selfhood (in French you can see the ideological tangle quite clearly in the etymology: the root propre can work as an adjective to mean one’s own or to be clean). Property creates privacy, a sense of one’s self, and it also protects us from the uncleanliness of not owning. Money becomes an object that stands in for this–even as a total abstraction, like a number in a bank account. " -- Stone Telling, aka ghost writer for CAW

there are problems with this city, but the way daffodils roam free here is inspiring... and they are damn mighty too -- they stand tall at the edges of cliffs where they are constantly met with gusts of fierce westerly winds and ocean spray, and yet they thrive.

nothing like writing about joy to help you find your way out of the darkness...
(at least a tiny bit).
joy is such a little trickster!
