My dream house is a negative space of rock
My poem "Northern Comfort" has been accepted by Not One of Us. It was written out of my discovery over the last few years of the slaveholding history of Massachusetts literally under my feet and my more recent anger at the murderously terrified fragility of the current administration. Half my family turns out to be wound into these vanguards of American colonialism and I don't waste my time pretending that the other immigrant half bullied me into demonizing them to death. At this point I am moving past hundred-year tides and into glaciers.
I cannot promise at this stage to do anything more than admire them, but![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
thisbluespirit made me a pair of personalized bingo cards.
I got at least three songs stuck in my head from this card.
I really appreciate the inclusion of the bog body.
Having entirely missed the existence of Winteractive these past three years, I can see that I will have to visit the Kraken Crossing before the end of March. In even more belated fashion, I have managed to go more than thirty years without seeing the 1995 BBC Pride and Prejudice partly because nearly everyone I knew in high school was fainting over it and my reactions to most expressions of romance at that time could be described as allergic and bemused, but this interview with Colin Firth has gone a long way toward convincing me that when my brain has reverted to media capability, it too should go on the list.

You're welcome! I love that kind of subcutaneous acting. It accounts for a lot of people I enjoy.

I may have said this before, but I realized a while back that for me, it's the actors who manage a kind of full-body presence and physicality. I can forgive shortcomings of the facial and vocal acting if everything from the neck down is selling the part.
