I just NEEEED to walk barefoot through the dirt in a soft yellow dress, wandering my big backyard garden while I leave the dough to rise in my warm kitchen. There are hummingbirds coming and going from the feeder, and small white butterflies fluttering from the flower patch. I pick tomatoes ready to make for dinner. I close my eyes when the Sun touches my bare shoulders. Everything out here is alive.
“overpopulation” refers to a real problem but it does it imprecisely. the problem doesn’t actually have to do with an over-abundance of people, it refers to the geography of capital which leads to overcrowding in certain areas, the inaccessibility (and waste!) of means of subsistence due to the market mechanism (if you can’t afford it you can’t have it, if it’s not profitable we won’t make it, etc), and the chronic underemployment of people (which supposedly has a “natural rate”) that is intimately bound up with the inflexibility of capital under conditions of full employment, which is obviously unacceptable. basically “overpopulation” is a bad name for a genuine issue that’s internal to the logic of capitalism and which would be totally resolved through socialism, not population control.

Rosalina commission! I tried some new things with this and played with color. I think it turned out quite nice. <3
