adjusting to a new bedroom is always weird (putting furniture and things where and whatever) but at least we've all already lived together. that part of it i know and i'm not anxious about. getting the bedroom ready takes me forever and i mostly never feel like i'm finished. like, where do all my ducks go?
here is this week's radio program:

i started numbering the episodes based on what i have a record of. podcasters often do it so i thought i would try it too. this one is episode #748. it's probably a little higher than that but wow. each show is one to two hours long. and all the time that goes into making them. that's a lot of hours! wild.

i feel really protective of diy when i see things that feel like a cooptation of the ethos and values. but i know i can get cynical too. i guess if people seem to be having an okay time then who am i to say anything. they could have it so much better though, and i just hope that they know that. i'll keep trying to provide and example and folks can make their own decisions.
anyway, here's the radio show for the week

okay so, it's been one week since i shaved my beard off and i've had a lot of feeling about it. i'm not going to share them now - enough about the beard okay. the one thing i did want to share is that i found these tiny glass bottles and i was thinking about putting the hairs in them. would you like one? make it into a necklace or fridge magnet or something? a gift for a friend you secretly have a crush on? here... have this jar of my friend's beard hair p.s. i love you.

okay i'm a few days late on this but i have good reasons. on saturday i went estate saleing and took a nap (it was so hot!) and watched a bunch of steven universe and then went to see barbie. and then on sunday i did food not bombs and took a long nap again and watched more steven universe and then finally got back out of the house after like 7:30 once it cooled off a bit and just hung out on the food co-op patio. very important thing to do. and then it was hard to find a chance to do it yesterday because i worked most of the day and then cooked dinner for like the first time in a while and then i had to watch wall-e for the first time. can't believe i never saw it.
but here ya go - radio program for the week. enjoy!

i've been in my summer home for a week. it's cool, it's just quiet. i've gotten so used to a crowded house. but maybe it makes sense to hibernate a bit during the summers here. lay low. ride around sometimes after the sun goes down. and during the day you keep the blinds drawn to keep the cool in. maybe in that darkness i could try making my own sounds, practice drawing, etc. i hope the quietude allows for some creative moments that just didn't have a chance against the constant activity in the old house. i wouldn't trade the past year at all, but i could perhaps work towards more of a balance moving forward.

i'm moving in the next month and it maybe hasn't totally hit. as in, i'm not panicking yet. but i'm going to slowly move all my stuff back into storage for the summer and live without all my junk until around mid-september. i may spend this weekend packing up a lot of non-essentials. craft supplies, books, vhs tapes. don't tell my vhs tapes that i called them non-essential! they would be so bummed. but i have to start somewhere. i'll keep a few tapes behind that i'd like to watch with people before we move. i'll move the bigger tube tv into storage but i'll keep my tiny 9" tv/vcr combo. i'll move the cassette tapes. i've already packed up my sweaters and jackets for davis summer. my long pants and long sleeve shirts too. will store the keyboards but i'll bring them back out in fall to try my keyboard square project again. extra shoes and camcorders will go. for whatever reason i've so many collected bags, so i'll throw them all into one giant bag and store those too.
i have so many ideas for projects that i may never get to, but i lug this stuff around from place to place regardless. i'm not saying it isn't worth it. i love having these things around because it keeps me working towards something. keeps my imagination running. but i wonder what it would be like without it all. what else could i be getting into that didn't require so much physical stuff?

i've been leaning into relinquishing power over things recently that i once would have preferred to have more control over. not resisting when the universe acts upon me. and although things may not be going quite how i would like them to, i wouldn't change it. let's see where else this goes yah?

i went to an estate sale last weekend and i bought two jars of rubber bands. one had red rubber bands. the other had green rubber bands. they were so neatly organized. so pleasing to look at. someone, and presumely this person is now dead, took the care to organize these jars of rubber bands and i knew immediately that i had to have them. it was sunday and in the last hour of the estate sale. everything was cheap and whatever was left over was probably destined for the landfill. is it my job to save all the treasurers of the recently deceased? no. but maybe. and i've saved other objects before. notebooks. homemade fridge magnets. odd collections of useless items. at least, the items are useless to me, but they were meaningful to someone. and that's what draws me to them. i hope that some day someone decides that my trash is worth preserving. and in that trash, i will live forever.

my mom gets so sad when she sees holes in my clothes. i have these favorite boots, and they both have holes in a spot where it makes sense for them to wear out with regular use but the rest of the shoe still works fine i think. but mom gets so bummed when she sees them. she's like "what did i do to deserve this?" and "oh god, what did i do wrong?" even though i'm like a pretty okay person and do some cool things in this world, and my shoes have nothing to do with her. is this just a common mom reaction? or like, an immigrant parent thing?
i did a lot of research the past couple months and got a nice new backpack because my backpack was also one of the items that made my mom sad. and yah, i agree that it was disgusting, but it still worked fine. but i showed my mom my new backpack tonight and she was so happy. i've been looking forward to showing it to her. and i'm going to try really hard to keep it nice, though often life happens so no guarantees. mom loved the backpack but told me i still better not wear the shoes with holes next time i see her hahaha.
i'm 37 and i wonder about if/when any of this will change with age. like, at some point will i start caring about whether my clothes have holes in them? would it have happened already if it was going to? or, will my mom stop caring about whether my clothes have holes in them? generally i don't understand how age works and what if i never have kids of my own? will i just be treated like a child forever? or, for those of you with kids, do your parents still infantilize you anyway? obviously all parent-child relationships look different, but i just don't feel like i have any reference points.
mom, i know you see these posts and i love you and i know that we share many of the same values. and i don't want to ever make you sad. and i will try to remember to wear a costume if you need me to but i will also continue to challenge you because i think that, too, can mean love.

i hate the way wearing a mask makes an indentation in my beard. and then my beard looks weird until i shower and brush it out. and so sometimes i've not been wearing a mask indoors. like, when i know i'm going to be inside the store for a short time i just go without. but i've been thinking about how dumb that is. the vanity part. but like, being vain about something that i'm sure other people find gross hahaha. it doesn't make sense. so i've been thinking about trimming my beard and keeping it trimmed. this probably seems trivial to you, but it feels like a big decision to me. i've had a full natural for like 18 years. that's half my life. but if it's causing me to take risks, then maybe it's worth a trim?

i've been doing religion a little bit recently. well, not religion but ritual. it's been a way to share a cultural experience i had as a kid with friends who had other experiences. and to connect and commiserate with friends that have had similar experiences.
and maybe it's also been an attempt at reclaiming the years of my life going through (what i've learned as i reflect were) meaningless ritual. family time felt significant but the rituals feel meaningless devoid of any larger critical context. i'm very very thankful to folks who have written thoughtful and radical haggadot. here's the anti-zionist haggadah we used for passover this year: bit.ly/40xX3d0.
this isn't a part of my life i'm looking to cultivate much more than an excuse to prepare a seder and make and share food with friends a few times a year, but reflecting on my position as an american jew while palestinians live under violent occupation in my name can be a daily ritual.

i wrote a whole thing but i deleted it. the words in your head feel so important one moment and so trivial the next. i'm going to try to spend my day outside. minimal words. and maybe i'll come back to it another time. byeeee!

i went to a book sale today and i judged all the books by their covers. or more specifically, their spines. i chose the books based on the lettering on their spines and i guess we'll see how it goes! but wow, ugh, some book covers are so ugly. i'm just hoping that if i'm drawn to the aesthetic of the cover art then i may be drawn to the content or style of writing?
i judge people based on their aesthetics also (it's a shortcut we all take, yah?) but it gets confusing because of places like urban outfitters and also because some of my favorite people have truly upsetting fashion sense.
but like books, and people, i love a good recommendation. that way i don't have to make time-saving judgements based on aesthetics. so what/who would you recommend to me?

it's been a few months since i broke up with my therapist and i've been doing pretty well. really well, actually. there are some things that it would be nice if they were going a little differently but none of them are high anxiety situations. everything has been manageable. i've been able to check in with people when i have something to think through. i don't feel like i'm holding too much in - just enough. i'm not feeling too stressed. my days are full and i'm having a nice time.
i'm not sure how to account for it all. like, i want an explination. why. but maybe that's all it is. i ride this moment and if things change i adjust. and that will be fine.
i wore white pants all day yesterday. i can do anything.
