Oh hey so this morning we were on top of a magical mountain but now we aren’t anymore? WHAT HAPPENED WHERE ARE YOU WHAT ARE YOU PLANKING
All quinoa, all the time.
See, swirl, sniff and sip!
I wanted to create these mini shrines devoted to the badass bitches, feminists, queers and women of color, who’ve paved the way for us, so that we can be inspired and empowered by them everyday.

Let’s take a bath!
We walk through the valley in the shadow of A-Camp.
While people were probably trying to figure out how to get it on in the woods, I was reading Habermas in the library. Come internet with me!
