i've been thinking a lot about what i have the capacity to do, what my relationships with different pieces of the world can do to change the possibilities around me.
i don't know the language to describe my changing beliefs about the world and the powers inherent and immanent to it. i feel like a lot of my work reading has been trying to discover the language i was looking for, and it has gotten me closer but i still feel so far....

Narada Falls from the last day of my trip to the mountains!

@pinkprius no, im new to mushrooms in this area and i didnt want to disturb too much. once i get more comfortable identifying them and finding spots that seem good to take from i will.

this cauliflower mushroom was by far the coolest find of the day though!

and more shroomies!

i was mushroom hunting today! heres some of what we found!

a new day of hiking!

i want to try to write some while i'm out here. i always feel closer to a power i can identify with out here

and this afternoon we went to a nearby creek!

this morning's walk was beautiful

im back around rainier for the next couple days. im excited to walk through the forests and i think im going to try to forage a little while here.

i started the book Dark Ecology by Timothy Morton. i'm not sure what i think about it yet. it's been wrong in frustratingly obvious, glaring ways a couple times, but i think it says something important to a particular kind of "rationalist" maybe... i gotta get further in it and mull it over still.

i rewatched Pig tonight. it was maybe my 4th or 5th watch and it still makes me cry. it's slow, and it likes to sit in its own emotions, but i think what it has to say about Names, Families, and Connections is unlike most stories, and worth hearing out.

@roundtit it was hard to accept this morning that what my dog did was, in fact, pretty cute.

@pie @FinalOverdrive studies tend to show that when people feel like they're stealing from a person it feels different than when you're stealing from a faceless corporation. but, politically i agree that in class war, businesses are businesses and they are predicated on exploitation and the violent upholding of their power, and as such, the non-propertied can't really treat them differently.
