snow falls down and covers the town

Weather is cray y'all! A foot of snow yesterday, bloody cold today, in the low forties by the weekend.

The only resolution I'm making this year - I never make resolutions, it's a self-love thing - is to try and get more words out. I'm having them all the time, but they get stuck in my fingers. Finishing is a consummation devoutly to be wished.sn

Georgia, Georgia, no peace I find

Effing cold. A big-ass tree fell on my roof last night, thankfully not doing any damage other than startling me out of my wits. Think I will not leave the house today.

What I am doing, though, is watching 12 Years a Slave. It's been high on my list since it came out; unlike Django Unchained, it's a film about USian slavery made by POC, albeit British POC in key positions, and that makes it need watching. Didn't want to see it in the cinema, though, because I need to be able to step away and digest. Don't see much point in getting blanked out by fear and pity. Aristotle was no revolution's friend.
