I’m 48 minutes early but happy birthday Nadia!! I am constantly amazed w/ your raw honesty, your zine, your blog, your activism, and your passion for media justice. Keep doing what you do, Nadia, you are shaping the world into a better place.

And Lex! Happy belated birthday! Your love, your questions, your vision brings a new kind of hope. I am glad to know you and call you my sister.

I love you both and am thankful for, your warmth, your friendship, and everything I’ve learned from you both… Happy birthday! See you in DETROIT! <3

i fell into a numbness
til the only tree i cd see
took me up in her branches
held me in the breeze
made me dawn dew
that chill at daybreak
- ntozake shange, for colored girls…

(okay is that not appropriate for a birthday? hmm. it’s beautiful though and everything yall mean to me *grin*)
