Fefu and her friends by Maria Irene Fornes
Cecilia: We must be part of a community, perhaps 10,100, 1000. It depends on how strong you are. ...A common denominator must be reached. Thoughts, emotions that fit all, have to be limited to a small number. That is, I feel, the concern of the educator--to teach how to be sensitive to the differences in ourselves as well as outside ourselves...Otherwise the unusual in us will perish. As we grow we feel we are strange and fear any thought that is not shared with everyone."
The play was written in 1977 and set in 1935. It speaks to me in relation to the battle for connection to other people, women specifically. Connection to a female community.
My brain thinks of facebook, social networking. Somehow I feel the feelings are parallel.

Delight in the Appaulling

I have a maniacal love for ads that today are just SO wrong.

Fifty Dangerous Things (You Should Let Your Children Do)
Fifty Dangerous Things (You Should Let Your Children Do)
I saw this guy on TED. He talks about how we can't shelter our kids as there are dangerous things worth learning to do.
I have no kids, so I don't understand the fear a parent has for their children, but I think kids should learn these things.
