Tally's version of Skyrim:

One of my friends is doing a project where she plays through Our Life: Beginnings and Always, which is a visual novel that follows a character through different stages of their life, at age 8, 13, 18, and 23 (I think?) and we've made it into a whole production where we're voicing it as she plays along. We started last weekend, it's mainly just being dorks with fun people I know.

The tweet has got our little introduction video, and the Youtube link to the recording of our first episode. We ran into a few technical issues, but we're working on it!

Going live here if anyone wants to hang out and listen.

andrew ramer, from tribal wisdom, from gay soul: finding the heart of gay spirit and nature, edited by mark thompson, 1990

transcription:

Q: Your father was apparently an extremely sensitive man. If only all fathers could be as perceptive about their gay sons.

A: I had a solid foundation of acceptance. I still remember him saying the one thing that has been utterly critical to the work I've done as a man who loves men. One day we went to an exhibit of cave paintings, which we both loved. At one point he turned and asked me who I thought had created them. I said I didn't know. "It had to be the fags," he explained. "All the other men are out hunting and killing. There's a bunch of fags sitting in the back of the cave, complaining about how ugly it is, wondering what they can do to make it look better. So they decide to paint some bison on the walls." I never forgot that conversation. Years later, I realized that my father was consciously trying to say to me, "I want you to understand that you have roots, you have a history." I grew up being told all these stories about being Jewish. That's part of my tribal consciousness. But except for a few things my father said, like that day at the museum, I realize that no one tells our gay stories except for ourselves.

Q: Is this how you regard yourself, as a gay storyteller?

A: Thousands of years ago people were sitting around a fire, telling stories. And here we are today, sitting around a tape recorder with two little red lights glowing like embers. It's all that's left of the fire, but that's enough. There's somebody who asks, What happened? And there's somebody who tells why what happened happened. And the rest of the tribe is sitting with us.

Thought I’d try something a little different for a February tarot challenge. No need to do something everyday. Do as much or as little as you like. 

Shuffle + Search - is a technique where you shuffle, turn the deck over, and look for a specific card. Then you read the cards on either side of it as significant in some way. Can be read intuitively. 

Pull Out + Draw - remove the card in question, shuffle, then pull 3 cards. Can be read intuitively. 

Card Study - pull out the card and jot down notes of your observations, what it reminds you of, or journal on it generally. 

Feel free to download the bingo card, cross things off, and upload it so you can show off what you did at the end of the month. Hit me up with any questions and I hope you enjoy!
