- loved this! has me thinking about BLUEY as a model of utopian storytelling and how i could draw on it for some of my own utopian fic efforts (and of course, hit hard in the feels with the reflections on trying to be more present for kids and my own wrestles with that)

- 2023's bday wishes from me to all of you: 1. Make a little peace (could make a BIG peace, but that feels a lil' overly ambitious) 2. Watch/read/listen to something you’ve been longing to check out forever 3. Tell an artist/writer/creative/filmmaker you appreciate their work and why!

- loved sam brown's thoughts on grief for Wayfare (challenging, moving, devastating, worth your time) "Grieve too much, and you will lose your mind. Grieve too little, and you will lose your soul. Such is the balance of life and death in the ICU." www.wayfaremagazine.org/p/a-grief-sh...
