So, as y’all may have noticed, I’ve not posted much lately. While this sort of silence on my part is hardly unusual, I thought I’d go over why exactly it happened in this case.
Simply put, I’ve been busy. Two conferences/convergences in two weeks (both of which, by the way, were awesome), work, and some significant mental health issues. Which last, let me tell you, are not at all fun.
Two weekends ago (as in, not the one that ended yesterday) was QueeRIOT, a radical queer anarchist convergence, here in Guelph. Friends of mine put it on–this was the inaugural year. I was a volunteer, which while a really positive experience, was also, well, tiring.
Then this past weekend I went to the Allied Media Conference in Detroit. This was also excellent. I went to a number of workshops, and met a couple of people I know from the internet in person. But again, it was another four days of fairly high-investment activities, less than a week after I had finished…four days of high-investment activities.
I’m spent. I hope to write more about, in particular, the AMC at some point soon. But for now, I need to recharge.
dont even pretend you did not go searching to find eminem while you were in detroit.

I had zero interest in Eminem, I am afraid. Less-than-zero, even.
Also, I doubt I would have had time, honestly.
I hope you had fun! It sounds like a well earned silence (not that yo uhave to actually earn silence. Hrm…)
