Anyone wanna see my practicing?

I've been working on the flexibility in my thoracic spine as part of my 2009 goal of getting my foot to the back of my head whenever I want it there.

We're getting there. Also, apparently my ass is getting too big for my shorts. Thats nice.

This is my new tattoo. I'm in an awkward position with my shirt half over my head, but whatever. Its not my sexy back you're here for, anyway.

I want the the poster on the right hands side framed. It's such a misappropriation of Keith Haring's style that it has gone past offensive and back into powerfully positive. Totally subversively awesome.

I realize that art isn't always created by well adjusted, goodhearted individuals... but is it okay to purchase that art if you know the money goes to line the coffers of a bigot? A hate instilling advocate of injustice?

The art itself is just phenomenal. The collaborative process was such that I got exactly what I wanted-- and could never have created myself. And after 10 hours of sitting, I could have come back just to hang-- the company was that good.
The story of my college roommate becoming a meme, then becoming a functional component of his favorite art through his own spectating fills me with joy.

I've been sharing Hatha Yoga techniques with the office of Housing and Urban Deveopment for almost eight years.
Their depth and skill grows, consistently. The staff changes, and there is always someone new. I love meeting people where they are (metaphorically and literally) and gesturing them towards better health of body, mind, spirit. I'm so enriched when the gesture becomes action and the action becomes ... Something greater.
I feel privileged to watch consciousness expand in unexpected places, with unsuspecting people.
Three things I've been told this week:
"I'm not scared anymore" "I was able to use what I learned during labor" "I didn't know I could do that."
I'm sharing tips, tricks, drills, and more next weekend from my journey into an open heart, strong legs, and distress tolerance.
My experience is not unique. Over and over, I've seen people flourish and amaze themselves.
It's all about breaking it down into pieces... And then putting it back together. I mean, who doesn't want pain free backbends?

Sound useful?

in imageWhy these
stories?
The stories and events featured in this exhibition
are both important and familiar. The three episodes-
the life of Pocahontas, the Trail of Tears, and the
Battle of Little Bighorn-remain an active part of
national life and conversations. They have unique
staying power.
Each generation of Americans decides all over again
what the events mean. George Armstrong Custer
was a hero until he wasn't. Andrew Jackson and
Pocahontas are not the same people our parents
and grandparents remember. History keeps
changing because Americans keep changing it.

Hey fellow authorized ashtanga yoga teachers! y’all gonna go to “Bill Cosby school of comedy” or “the R Kelly Institute for Balladry”? What if they gave you your degree with the guys face on it and made you hang it up in your class room? Are you going to do it? If you wouldn’t do it, why not? Could you support an organization that demanded you do?

2. We're All Gonna Die
2020
117 homeless Washingtonians have died in the last year. This is up more than 100% compared to the previous last year.

2 million dollars was spent on an art installation designed to keep homeless people out of an underpass— not for safety, but because of community aesthetics.

The building the crew club is in on 14th street sold for 2 million.

I’m all for public art commissions— but c’mon. We can hang shitty LED lights, but not help our most vulnerable at the very least stay safe from the elements?

How much housing can 2 million buy?
I worked at the improv during that impressionable 21-28 time frame. I am so grateful for that time. Night after night i got to watch masters hone their craft. Words, wit, and dynamic performance art... all at the same time. The relationships forged there— my friends, my own art, and with incredible artists... Wow. Please help if you can!

"I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season." Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection."

Print is not dead, and those who create zines
know this to be true. In the D.C. area, zines
are an outlet for personal passion projects -
and they continue to thrive in the region,
decades after they proliferated during the
height of the District's punk music scene.

Now my feeling is that our hope lies in reality
because the culture of empire - the capitalist,
hedonistic patriarchal culture is driven by fantasy -
an addiction to fantasy. To the extent that we can
encourage and promote facing realty we have
concrete reasons to hope.

in imageHere's this man, for example, that most people remember by what
is a very poetic " Have a Dream" speech, but not by the deep,
penetrating social and political analysis he had about
imperialism. And why? Because, in a sense, we censor that

constructed to make him more palatable.

in imageI think one of the most wonderful books that Martin Luther King
wrote was "Strength to Love."I always liked it because of the
word "strength," which counters the Western notion of love as
easy. Instead, Martin Luther King said that you must have
courage to love, that you have to have a profound will to do
what is right to love, that it does not come easy.
@savedbythebellhooks
in imageI'm an artist. I'm not your plumber, pastor or therapi
I don't owe you my services and I don't always need to
care about your feelings. If I write, I don't need to tell
your story. If I sing, I don't always want to sing for my
supper. My comedy doesn't need to make you laugh
and my music doesn't need to make you dance. If my
art makes me wealthy and famous, I don't owe you a
discount or collaboration. If my art is unknown, you
don't get to measure its worth by audience size. My art
may talk about love even if I've never been in love. It
may preach kindness while I still learn to be kind. My
art may be flawless but I'm still imperfect and human.
I don't owe you anything other than your time if l
asked for it and your money's worth if you paid. My
debt is to myself, for the time of my life I spent
learning my craft. My gratitude belongs to the
universe, for sending itself a message through my
creations, for making me a vessel of the divine.
