vintagewitch I have felt the overwhelming urge to document my life lately.
On paper, here, in voice notes, in emails and text threads and photographs.
I know that this urge is somehow related to the striking rise of fascism in the United States. I've been obsessing a lot. There are so many reasons for that. My partner and I are actively looking at leaving here. I'm hoping we'll be gone by August 2026. And I also think that a big part of it has to do with how much truth is getting erased right now. I just don't want all of our stories to be disappeared. Just like the people.
I turned the camera on yesterday, and I haven't been obsessing as much since. It was like I was finally able to let it rest, because I was doing something about the madness. My brain has been able to settle a little bit more.
Who knows, I might just be able to make something beautiful
