Time Capsule #11: grieving lost art, BANNED BOOKS, and 2-for-1 margaritas

Come join me for the time capsule!

Welcome to my Time Capsule project, where I save and reshare old pieces of writing, art, and other creations. The purpose behind this project is so that created pieces don’t live and die by the algorithm, and live on continually to be enjoyed by others without forcing creators to be on the hamster wheel of creation.

Don’t be shy and drop something in the time capsule! This week, I’m calling for items related to pride — what does it mean to you?

I grieve all the art that isn’t because of the algorithms.

and so I act & amplify.

This one’s from me! I often make a “hot pot dump and go” noodle bowl for dinner each night, to keep things simple but also delicious.
