I have just been given some truly disgusting details about what vomit day will be like, and I am weirdly giddy about it in a “little boy who loves gross stuff” way

I have a podcast with my friend and imaginal practice teacher Rosa Lewis in which we're watching movies as if they are portals to a psychedelic and imaginal realm. In this last episode of Nouveau Shamanic Cinema we talk about her favorite ever movie: Moulin Rouge! open.spotify.com/episode/3M4n...

You can literally just water the seeds the gods planted in you,, it's free and no one can stop you and it'll transform your life and why is basically no one doing this?

Just finished the notebook I've been journaling in since the end of last year! let's make that a wrap on the "river's life falls apart piece by piece and he's forced to confront every dark shadow and grimy corner of his life" era, now starting a GLORIOUS FUCKING PHOENIX FROM THE FUCKING ASHES era
