Bird backs
can be very interesting because they reveal the beautiful patterns and textures of feathers. Here’s to a happy Friday!

Yesterday's incident was important. It happened because of the shameful system of arranged marriages, because of the darkness of the social system, the negation of the individual will, and the absence of the freedom to choose one's own mate. It is to be hoped that interested persons will comment on all aspects of this affair, and that they will defend the honour of a girl who died a martyr's death for the cause of the freedom to choose her own love. ...
even if her parents and the family of her future husband had refused to accept her free will, if in society there had been a powerful group of public opinion to support her, if there were an entirely new world where the fact of running away from one's parents' home and finding refuge elsewhere were considered honourable and not dishonourable, in this case, too, Miss Chao would certainly not have died. If Miss Chao is dead today, it is because she was solidly enclosed by the three iron nets (society, her own family, the family of her future husband); she sought life in vain and finally was led to seek death.
Mao Zedong, Miss Chao's Suicide (1919) One of Mao’s earliest published writings. A woman committed suicide after being forced into a marriage and he dropped an entire dialectical analysis on this injustice. https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/works/1919/miss-chao.htm

i found my OLD TUMBLR ERA poems let me share one: Beau Soir I remember those French paintings of oils and stains on the canvas up high. Stone vaults in the design of converging arches. The architecture was divine and you were too. And the candles ran down the aisles, some waiting to be ignited by the saintly or by the passionate. I cannot forget the voices. The night sang and the cobblestone was wet; the snow had melted. Maybe the candles had softened it.
my roommate was mad that my friends were over and directly texted THEM to leave LMAO
