Lunar Sand taken from the rim of the Shorty Crater by the Apollo 17 Astronauts. This “Orange Soil” is a result of volcanic activity on The Moon 3.8 billion years ago. It is so spherical and smooth due to the lack of gravity - pulling the molten substance in towards itself at the time of eruption and thus creating these round particles. ⠀

“At its most basic level, all of this emotional labour is saying to another human being “you matter. I will take my time to show you that you matter.” And maintaining that glue is something that devolves mainly onto women, 24 hours a day. It feels like most men are taught (ex- or implicitly) to do emotional work only when it gets them something they want now, whereas most women are taught to do emotional work as part of an ongoing exchange that benefits everyone.”

“Your old name is not your king.

I rename you ‘Everything.’”

““Some problems we share as women, some we do not. You fear your children will grow up to join the patriarchy and testify against you, we fear our children will be dragged from a car and shot down in the street, and you will turn your backs upon the reasons they are dying.””
