Walking, reading, riding, loving San Francisco and actively hoping towards a better world.
I know just enough to get in trouble in far too many fields. Jack of all trades; Jill of the critique. Master of none, because mastery without consent is fucked up.

So I just added the to my account because I welcome feedback, critique & whatever.
I have a lot of takes based on my individual privileged experience, and I've changed over time because one of my privileges is amazing people who have taught me better and taken time & energy to discuss & teach.
I intend to discuss & teach the same things I discuss here in the future, passing along that privilege. if it offends or is incorrect in either direct or nuanced ways, I want to hear it.
I can't guarantee I will agree, but I promise others have changed my mind and I promise to continue to change going forward.
If I'm disrespectful, I want to know not just do it by accident.
So - I'm thinking of it as the proactive consent seeking

I'm back from winter social media break and I noticed a change in my mental health and habits. I also noticed a lack of local news & community in my life.
So I'm going to stop following some people, start following others and trying to simultaneously include more international and local people (& politics inevitably) while excluding and removing more national political people & especially politics.
There's plenty of expert coverage on the American national political front - I don't need or want that in my face on social media. It would be irresponsible to block or hide it all, and reprehensible as a beneficiary to not engage with those harmed by it, but those fighting to maintain or extend the status quo of white, wealthy supremacy aren't getting more attention here.
