« It is foolish to let a young redwood   grow next to a house.

Even in this   one lifetime, you will have to choose.

That great calm being, this clutter of soup pots and books—

Already the first branch-tips brush at the window.   Softly, calmly, immensity taps at your life. »

— Jane Hirshfield, “Tree”, in Given Sugar, Given Salt

Who would have thought I'd come back to Tumblr after all these years?

I asked my friend, after the recent OnlyFans news, whether he reckons the site will meet the same end as our once anointed Tumblr. No porn, no point, right?

I have since scrolled through the skeletal remains of my dashboard and found that, through the dust that the pornography left on it's departure, there remains something quite beautiful.

The art; illustrations, poetry, art history, prose, short stories, inspirational quotes and messages, etc.

So, here I am, proved incredibly wrong.

No Venlafaxine day 5, attempt 2 in the past year to try and get off them. Lots of thoughts, lots of noise, only one place for them...
