Amelia Gray On Placentas/Lunchables/Velveeta/Etc.
orangehunchback:
Amelia Gray was awesome enough to answer a few questions about a very serious matter.
Would you consider yourself an adventurous or a picky eater?
I’m adventurous with a caveat that if some unpleasant element of the food sneaks into my mind, I have to immediately stop. For example: my partner and I, dining on a plate of whole baby squid at our local Thai place, ink squirting,...

Marie's Rip Tide Lounge
(Please play this song while reading this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGWgZH41CVY). My friends, there is trouble in Bucktown. Two years ago, we lost a community leader in Marie Wuczynski. Now, we may lose the institution which she built. Legal costs, anachronistic laws, and a douchebag relative threaten Bucktown’s very way of life…or at least its way of life after 3 am. It is an...

Shit, I'm Moving to India
Yesterday was my two week countdown to India. I will be in Mumbai at this time in two weeks. No more cold. No more clean drinking water. No more toilet paper (ugh, the worst part of the transition). But chasing my dreams, and embracing the unknown.

If they answer not to thy call walk alone, If they are afraid and cower mutely facing the wall, O thou unlucky one, open thy mind and speak out alone. If they turn away, and desert you when crossing the wilderness, O thou unlucky one, trample the thorns under thy tread, and along the blood-lined track travel alone.

Follow Your Bliss
The divine manifestation is ubiquitous, Only our eyes are not open to it. Awe is what moves us forward. Live from your own center. The divine lives within you. The separateness apparent in the world is secondary. Beyond the world of opposites is an unseen, but experienced, unity and identity in us all. Today the planet is the only proper “in group.” Participate joyfully in the sorrows of the...
