Preverbal, love is the smell of a known body, the touch of a recognized hand, the blurred face in a haze of light. Words come, and love sharpens. Love becomes describable, narratable, relatable. Over time, one love comes to lay atop another, a mother’s love, a father’s love, a lover’s love, a friend’s love, an enemy’s love. This promiscuous mixing of feelings and touches, of smiles and cries in the dark, of half-hushed pleasures and heart-cracking pain, of shared unutterable intimacies and guttural expressions, layer in embellished bricolage. One love coats another, like the clear pages of an anatomy textbook, drawing pictures of things we can only ever see in fractions. With the coming of words, love writes and is then overwritten; love is marginalia illegibly scrawled in your own illegible hand. In time, love becomes a dense manuscript, a palimpsest of inscrutable, epic proportions, one love overlaying another, thick and hot and stinking of beds. It’s an unreadable mess.

Honestly, if you care so much about human suffering, I really recommend just like… helping out locally.
And I’m sure there are ways to frame this like “Maybe the homeless person you help feed at the food kitchen will be the person who figures out how to stop the next global crisis” or some shit but like… really I just mean… if you’re against human suffering, go help some humans.
They might not ever be helpful in a global or even national or statewide or local crisis but… they are suffering and need help, so help them.
The effort to help things at home goes much, much farther than your guess works attempt at help for a crisis brewing elsewhere.
I feel like a lot of y’all hone in on crises that are so large you cannot actually do something because it’s a way to prove you have empathy and care but know you don’t have to actually do any sustained work for. Like you CAN’T help, you can ONLY care.
With local things, the only way to prove you care… is to actually do work and not just post about it. And it’s sustained work that never quite stops. You can reasonably make a huge difference.
But you just won’t get attention for it. It’s all the work and none of the validation. Whereas posting about world crises is all of the attention and none of the work.
