leave something on your windowsill on the night of a crescent moon. it can be anything, but it has to have been loved, at least for a time. when you wake in the morning, it will be replaced with a spoon. eat with the spoon 16 times and you’ll find that those who dislike you seem to like you a bit more. but, those who love you love you a bit less. love is a currency. the ravens know that.

“The most anti-capitalist protest is to care for another and to care for yourself. To take on the historically feminized and therefore invisible practice of nursing, nurturing, caring. To take seriously each other’s vulnerability and fragility and precarity, and to support it, honor it, empower it. To protect each other, to enact and practice community. A radical kinship, an interdependent sociality, a politics of care.”— Johanna Hedva, Sick Woman Theory, 2015 | Mask Magazine
“Sick Woman Theory maintains that the body and mind are sensitive and reactive to regimes of oppression – particularly our current regime of neoliberal, white-supremacist, imperial-capitalist, cis-hetero-patriarchy. It is that all of our bodies and minds carry the historical trauma of this, that it is the world itself that is making and keeping us sick.“
