Lately I have been obsessed with zines. Zines, if you don't know, are small hand-made magazines. Often political, they can also be informational, autobiographical, literary, or filled with visual art. I want to make several zines if I can figure out how to get them out there where people can read. Zine subject ideas include: … Continue reading Zines I Want to Write

My Planner!
I am back to using a planner again. I'm using one that was custom designed for me several years ago by an Etsy shop owner who has since closed. It isn't completely perfect for me now. Because I could use more space in the homeschooling columns for next year, and I want the cleaning section … Continue reading My Planner!
Radical, Sweet Softness
I have decided to embrace a radical softness. I want to be serene, gentle, and sweet. No more harboring anger or getting stressed out or being impatient. Obviously I don't mean the feminist form of radical softness. I don't believe in toxic masculinity for starters, and furthermore, this is all about femininity. I want to … Continue reading Radical, Sweet Softness

As it stands, I just do things as I can when they need to be done - like picking up before my husband gets home, cooking dinner, or mopping floors. But a schedule might help me keep the house extra clean and inspire me to … Continue reading Cleaning Schedule
Collage Art in Color
I love collage art, and I watch a lot of collage content on Youtube. A couple of things catch my eye. One is that every popular collage artist I come across or collage artists on lists of accomplished artists has in common is doing paper collage. I am the only one I know doing digital … Continue reading Collage Art in Color
Public Vs Private
Today on Instagram I wrote about how masculine the public sphere is. From work to politics, public life is filled with conflict. Fighting through that conflict is masculine. I prefer the gentle, serene, and feminine. I have a fiery personality sometimes, but I like to stay at home and be at peace. I'm not saying … Continue reading Public Vs Private
