all poems are interviews with yourself where you ask "good god why" and you reply "the moon, the birds"

I made this plot to convey how humans are changing the climate. This plot shows 35,000 years. Future projections are from a SSP2-45-like trajectory. The pink band shows the fossil fuel era, which will last just a few centuries — just a brief spark in the history of humanity.

Hey creative friends! Feeling stuck? Come to class: Oct. 12, 21 and 24 linktr.ee/theamandafletcher I designed these virtual workshops to help us process #burnout, #creativeblocks #grief, #anxiety, etc. in pursuit of joy. Just set your intention & show up willing to try.
If you start to feel stuck in your creative projects, how about this: dress up real nice & take it on a date. Why not employ a little seduction of the Muse? Go big, be fancy, delight in her company. Don’t expect her to put out. Just have fun. (From Elizabeth Gilbert, Big Magic)
