Brief interruption - buy this now
My friends,
My biannual infusion is almost done. I have four minutes left before I head back to this glorious exhausting FULL OF LIFE time of year.
Can I gently recommend you buy these custom bespoke handcrafted zines by https://www.nadineannehura.com/ (you know they're fancy b/c I said bespoke)?
Limited time, limited availability, all well-earned $ goes straight to author.
In How To Live, Helen Rickerby https://www.rnz.co.nz/national/programmes/standing-room-only/audio/2018709223/where-are-the-women-philosophers-poet-helen-rickerby reminds us of the legions of lost work of female philosophers.
She lists example of the voluminous writing by famed males KEPT FOR POSTERITY (including, I'm pretty sure a recipe for beans? maybe it was an ode to beans?) as females' work is erased, buried, and gone. (I wish I could give you the full quote but I don't have the book in front of me.)
Let's create art houses for what we love. Let's fund it outside algorithms.
Let's bequeath these art pieces to our children, an inheritance of love and hope and publishing in it's most indie.
Aroha, Kerry
