TWO THINGS: Can everyone just focus for a second on the fact that you aren’t voting for Biden as much as you are voting for RBG’s replacement? I realize there are ample divisions in our social fabric right now but can we on “the left” please just agree on that? And masks duh.

I am SO VERY TIRED of misogyny. Thank you Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for standing up for women. I hope my daughter grows up to be even a fraction as brave and bright as you are.

A friendly little reminder from the wise bell books: “The ability to critique oneself and change and to hear critique from others is the condition of being that makes us capable of responsibility.”

“Just days before her death, as her strength waned, Ginsburg dictated this statement to her granddaughter Clara Spera: 'My most fervent wish is that I will not be replaced until a new president is installed.'”

Yesterday I found a dead owl in the yard. It was really beautiful & sad. Felt strangely symbolic. Then I thought... RBG’s death...on Rosh Hashanah...Followed by an earthquake... Wisdom (the owl), death, & a rumbling of the earth. Renewal. Rage. Movement. A reminder to keep going.

There are currently 12 open positions posted on MOCA’s website. If you are thinking of applying to any of them and would like some free advice, feel free to hit me up! A few folks have already reached out, so I figured I’d just go ahead and offer this to others…

“we have a rampant belief in our sector that people from outside our organization/community/geographic area are somehow more knowledgeable and effective than the people in it. I am calling it the Outsider Efficacy Bias (OEB)” nonprofitaf.com/2021/11/outsid…

Forgot to share when this dropped because it was my birthday and I was busy celebrating myself (lol I was actually alone looking at art but hey, that’s celebration to some of us!). Anyway excited to share a bit about the work I’ve been doing with Museums Moving Forward…

"Museums are undergoing a major identity crisis — possibly the biggest identity crisis since their formation — a lot of this is stemming from a culture of fear, and a total dissolution of trust." – Mia Locks, Episode 1 of #HopeAndDread bit.ly/3vfHWZ8
