The Raincoat (2018) by Ada Limón
In Episode 148, Rachel shares an emotional poem.
Rachel: The experience of parenting has made me look back at my experience of being a child more. And I just found that such a powerful way of phrasing that; this idea that there is so much that exists within your own parent’s life when you’re a child that you know nothing about. (...)
Rachel: I feel like her approach to writing is very similar to Billy Collins in that, like, I am just telling you a story and then I am revealing to you as it revealed to me, like, what the significance of this story is. (...) She said, “Your writing wants you to widen your gaze and see the world fully. Your writing wants you to be tender and vulnerable to the world.”
40 episodes ago, Rachel brought to RPC Mother and Child by Louise Glück, which also bears the theme of motherhood. Yet, the way in which each poet handles this subject differently is fascinating. While you read Gluck’s poem, it feels as if the narrator slowly lays onto your back the crushing and suffocating weight they’re experiencing. Meanwhile, Limon’s poem invites almost the exact opposite sensation: the narrator places their experience over your shoulders as well, but this time it doesn’t feel like a heavy burden at all, instead, it feels like -you guessed it- a raincoat.
If you’d like to hear more, you can do so here: Gak Chat, from 3:58-11:19

“…I never asked her what she gave up to drive me, or how her day was before this chore. Today, at her age, I was driving myself home from yet another spine appointment, singing along to some maudlin but solid song on the radio, and I saw a mom take her raincoat off and give it to her young daughter when a storm took over the afternoon. My god, I thought, my whole life I’ve been under her raincoat thinking it was somehow a marvel that I never got wet”

Ada Limón - The Raincoat
When the doctor suggested surgery and a brace for all my youngest years, my parents scrambled to take me to massage therapy, deep tissue work, osteopathy, and soon my crooked spine unspooled a bit, I could breathe again, and move more in a body unclouded by pain. My mom would tell me to sing songs to her the whole forty-five minute drive to Middle Two Rock Road and forty- five minutes back from physical therapy. She’d say, even my voice sounded unfettered by my spine afterward. So I sang and sang, because I thought she liked it. I never asked her what she gave up to drive me, or how her day was before this chore. Today, at her age, I was driving myself home from yet another spine appointment, singing along to some maudlin but solid song on the radio, and I saw a mom take her raincoat off and give it to her young daughter when a storm took over the afternoon. My god, I thought, my whole life I’ve been under her raincoat thinking it was somehow a marvel that I never got wet.

Week 7 @daycarefriendpickup magma art! 🐸🌧
Decided this week to doodle up some art of @crabsnpersimmons raincoat Sun and Moon designs from their Rain or shine AU! The designs are super cute so I just had to doodle something up for them!
I wonder if they would make some little froggy friends while splashing in puddles, I can sure imagine they'd have fun hopping along with them!

In honor of a bunch of my friends being served iris rhizomes instead of daylily bulbs at a skills event and puking their guts out all night, here is a friendly reminder about wild edibles:
Do not eat any wild edibles that are at all new to you or you are even a little uncertain about without double and triple checking the ID with a trusted, professional resource. ABSOLUTELY DO NOT feed wild edibles to anyone else that you haven't repeatedly IDed and eaten yourself with no problems.

Little Nightmares characters as Tinkerbell Fairy Talents! 
After speaking over it with @ciipher-arts (who knows more about the Tinkerbell movies than I do) With her advisement, I decided to assign talents via colorscheme instead of any other truer association with their darker original powers. 
I caught COVID this past week and sketched these out while I was sick in bed. It was therapeutic. 
*Mono's color scheme is a fight between olive green and brown depending on the lighting, so here I decided he'll represent brown.   *Noone, the last character, is from the Sounds of Little Nightmares. We don't know what she looks like outside of having a dress and a head silhouette. (And the silhouette has a purple background) So It's likely this depiction is inaccurate, but there were no other orange-schemed characters that fit the "animal" talent. Plus, Noone always loved moths as a child, so it may as well be her. (I'll make an official design page for her at some point, but I heavily based her design off of Jane from Peter Pan 2) 
Six, Mono, the runaway kid, the girl in the yellow raincoat, the pretender, Noone, Low, Alone (C) Little Nightmares
