reflecting on the bear-or-man discourse

and thinking about how my good dog protected me, over the years, from both bears and men

she faced down my violent ex-husband when he tried to kick in the door of my house

and a bear that tried to walk through our camp one night, up the Skok

and this makes me think that really what women need isn't an array of bad choices

it's to be supported so that we have the freedom and resources to be out in the world safely

also, dogs are pretty great

@sarae this made me think about how I feel so inundated with the array of bad choices that I forget the dogs. It's one thing to be informed, but I often feel it's to the point of hopelessness instead of remembering there is still good worth fighting for.

@squizzleflip it's really easy to get thinking that all our choices are shitty

I get stuck in that myself sometimes!

but lateral moves and unexpected directions and alliance building are super powerful

@seachanger she was the best

and it's pretty wild this went viral today: this afternoon I had my appointment to get a memorial tattoo

she was always so great at making friends and it makes me happy she's still winning people over
