For some reason, these three leaders wanted to be photographed with a very big Picasso sculpture at Chicago City Hall. It’s not interesting, I said. Then it started snowing, so we went outside and I took this.

How To Tell If You Are In A Shakespearean Comedy:

You bring news from Venice!

— aliza and i were talking about the way the patriarchy works: they wound you, but they don’t even know they did it. it’s not that you’re sensitive; it’s that they’re insensitive. and it’s their privilege not to know what they did while you carry around the wound. and then what do you do? it might make you feel better to just get over it, but… aliza devised a better strategy; we just haven’t figured out how to actualize it yet.
