Graph of Desire by heather galaxy

INSTRUCTIONS: Generate a graph of your desires.

I just went through a rather intense breakup with someone who was basically genetically engineered to be perfect for me in a million different ways. This reminded me of the other person who I felt I was truly in love and had a million things in common with which also ended in quite an explosive manner. Hence, this graph:

I like the way the slope is navel-sensitive. The smart SFZerians could get into the calculus of it, a minimum, your best bet, etc.

yeah I love xkcd. I can't believe a web comic can so often make me cry, dance for joy, ponder important questions, etc.

I really like praxes that come from strong emotion, especially when that's expressed beautifully. Even when that strong emotion comes from pain and nearly hopeless frustration. I'm often amazed by what people are willing to reveal here.

I'll admit, I don't know how much of this is because I'm affected by an attractive body with little clothing--but I think that framing it on your body was very cool, visually and contextually. It seems to me like a good use of sexuality to make the point much more strongly.

Sadly, of course, this could just be my thinking brain trying to justify my monkey brain. Feh. :p

kapow!

Meh FF3 is not being my friend when it comes to the reply button.

Yeah, I'm glad you liked it and got it.

I wouldn't have done a barely clothed praxis if it wasn't appropriate here in that emotionally I have been stripped down and am clearly seeing how my life and my desires play out. Also that all this comes from the self and the body anyway and it was just important for this to be written on that space in a very explicit way.

Maybe it'll make me remember next time.
