STAR CAT?
QUESTION FOR LAURA =>
should i STARt CATergorizing the blog
I don’t know how I feel about the word “categorizing”
the only benefit would be to find things, but am I just limiting the blogs in that way, and now I feel like I am talking about the blogs as if they shouldn’t be defined. My friend yesterday quoted a saying that goes, we still brush our teeth knowing that we’re all going to die or something like that… and the saying gives licence to so many things so many good things and so many bad things… what is the benefit and destruction of categorizing my thoughts. Would I thrive from it, or would it limit the creative spontaneity that happens from finding things that I’ve forgotten about, those moments that seem serendipitous, that help spur on more life…. but when it comes to sharing this knowledge, when it comes to writing essays that are accepted by peer reviewers and what not I must tryyyyyy my best to conform to those indoctrines whilst still remaining tied to my world, and just acknowledging how I really don’t care for the current structure all that much. reminds me of the discussion within the book club organized by petals yesterday - about talking about what do we do about things in the world how do we live in our truths about the world and face fascists (response that emerged when discussing early chapters of Love In A Fucked Up World by Dean Spade)
I could try and see if it helps, and if it fails then I can also change it. but ya, anyways, why do I care so deeply, I have never before been so zealous for the rights of pieces of writing,
how would I even go about categorizing?

this is about art
this could also be about art if you think about it
filler
filler
filler for people who only like the major bits of story and don’t care about the real mundanity of life
filler who actually love the mundane parts of life
filler because no one really cared to go in and actually categorize it properly

etc.
what if the story was just all of the filler. I like a story that is just about the excess parts of a thing
