![]() Through her books, which include Kindred, Fledgling, Parable of the Sower, and Survivor, Butler tackled issues such as climate change, gender inequality, and racial injustice. A Black woman writing science fiction-a genre typically dominated by white men-she became the first science fiction writer to win a prestigious MacArthur Fellowship in 1995. Butler was one of the most significant literary figures of the 20th century. She was the recipient of a MacArthur Award and a Nebula Award, and she twice won the Hugo Award.Born in Pasadena, California, on June 22, 1947, Octavia E. Butler (1947-2006) was the author of many novels, including Dawn, Wild Seed, and Parable of the Sower. John Marshall, Seattle Post-IntelligencerĪbout the Author Octavia E. Lynell George, Los Angeles Times This powerful novel about a modern black woman transported back in time to a slave plantation in the antebellum South is the perfect introduction to Butler's work and perspectives for those not usually enamored of science fiction.A harrowing, haunting story. Style One of the most original, thought-provoking works examining race and identity. In a field dominated by white male authors, Butler's African-American feminist perspective is unique, and uniquely suited to reshape the boundaries of the sci-fi genre. The Washington Post Book World Her books are disturbing, unsettling. Dorothy Allison, The Village Voice Butler's literary craftsmanship is superb. real women caught in impossible situations. She is a realist, writing the most detailed social criticism and creating some of the most fascinating female characters in the genre. Essence Butler's books are exceptional. ![]() Do not, I beg you, deny yourself this singular experience.-Harlan Ellison Truly terrifying. the novel one returns to, again and again, through the years, to learn, to be humbled, and to be renewed. Octavia Butler is a writer who will be with us for a long, long time, and Kindred is that rare, magical artifact. It is an important novel, filled with powerful human insight and the shocking impact of the most commonplace experiences viewed in a new way, and it demands that once begun, the reader continue till it has done its work on the heart and mind and soul. Kindred is a story that hurts I take that to be the surest indicator of genuine Art. To express my total admiration and wonder for the originality of this surpassingly compelling novel, I am driven to a despised cliché I could not put it down! It is a book that simply will not be denied its power is hypnotic. It overwhelmed me, dominated me, drew me on page after page. ![]() It is a shattering work of art with much to say about love, hate, slavery, and racial dilemmas, then and now.-Sam Frank, Los Angeles Herald-Examiner Like emotion that uplifts and enriches, like exquisite music or the taste of some special candy remembered from childhood, I never wanted Kindred to end. It is everything the literature of science fiction can be.-Walter Mosley Butler's characters are so vivid and the racist milieu in which they struggle to survive so realistically depicted that one cannot finish Kindred without feeling changed. ![]() In Kindred, Octavia Butler creates a road for the impossible and a balm for the unbearable. Dana is drawn back repeatedly through time to the slave quarters, and each time the stay grows longer, more arduous, and more dangerous until it is uncertain whether or not Dana's life will end, long before it has a chance to begin. Rufus, the white son of a plantation owner, is drowning, and Dana has been summoned to save him. Dana, a modern black woman, is celebrating her twenty-sixth birthday with her new husband when she is snatched abruptly from her home in California and transported to the antebellum South.

![]() I’d rather make out with a Gemini and feel fucking insane. Have you ever tried to be friends with someone who’s a saint? It’s so boring. What attracts a Gemini to a Sagittarius is their love for life and its messiness. Geminis are magnetic and various and sometimes a little bit cold (which is kind of hot, actually). They remind me of bathroom graffiti which I take very seriously because it’s a mix of raw truth and some other wild shit you don’t even know how to process. I have a great affection for how they get themselves in trouble but truly mean well. ![]() We love you.)Īs a Sagittarius, I’m always defending Geminis. (Aries, I see you shaking your heads yes. The stage is where they become themselves. But acting is real to a Gemini and Sagittarius. In the morning you’ll actually remember how you had this one intimate moment with both of them, smoking a cigarette in passing, listening to them tell you something really personal in an understated way. Someone else will say they had the best night of their life. They will say a lot of things they don’t mean. They love to make people feel good and they love to be grandiose. This is part of why they’re drawn to each other. Both of these signs are natural entertainers. If you show up to a party with a Gemini and Sagittarius couple, good luck. This is important because both of these signs feed off of each others’ spontaneity. So basically, lots of talking, lots of hand gestures, lots of “I forgot to tell you about this one time…” and three hours later you’re on a plane to Saint-Tropez drunk on gin & tonics. I want to point out that Gemini is ruled by Mercury, the great communicator. They want everything to feel like a beginning.īut hold on. Number nine on the karmic wheel, moodiest of its fire siblings and ruled by lucky Jupiter. The only direction it knows is everywhere. But does it keep things exciting? You know it does. Whatever! Sounds a little terrifying, yeah. What does mutable mean? Well, it really just means that anything can change at any moment for no apparent reason. Let’s get some basic things out of the way. The vibe you get when you put these signs together. It will remind you of freedom, chaos, and chasing a downer with an upper. But I’m here to tell you that if you have to hang out with a couple, a Gemini-Sagittarius situation won’t make you feel bad or bored. That place we’re all sold that’s not as fun as friendship but supposedly better than being alone. Annoying if you’re trying to choose where to have dinner, yes, but amazing if you’re looking for someone to bounce creative ideas off of.As a single person, if you’ve ever had to do something with a couple-dinner, drinks, orgy, whatever-you know that inevitably there comes a point when you either feel bad about yourself or just bored. It just takes them a while to decide what they think because they’re so careful about it! And once they do finally make a decision, they’re open to changing their minds. ![]() They aren’t decisive as the other signs, but that doesn’t mean they don’t have opinions. Think of them as open-minded philosophers. These deep thinkers withhold judgment until all the information is presented, and even then, they won’t be mean about it. They work hard to prepare us all for the transformation-they have the flexibility and open-mindedness to understand situations from all different angles. They mark the end of the season or the completion of a cycle (depending on how you look at it): Gemini season begins when spring is ending, Virgo season begins when summer is ending, Sagittarius season begins when fall is ending, and Pisces season begins when winter is ending.Īppropriate for signs that fall at the end of a season, mutable signs know change is coming. So, let’s get into mutable signs! The mutable signs-again, that’s Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces-are the thinkers and philosophers of the zodiac. That means there’s only one cardinal air sign (Libra), only one mutable water sign (Pisces), only one fixed earth sign (Taurus)…you get the picture. Notice something? Each sign in the same modality has a different element, and vice versa. The four mutable signs are Gemini, Virgo, Sagittarius, and Pisces the fixed signs are Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius and the cardinal signs are Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn. The three modalities are: cardinal, mutable, and fixed. The modalities also describe where each zodiac sign falls in the season-at the start, middle, or end. Well, that’s not the only way to divide the zodiac signs into groups! In fact, all 12 signs are also divided up into groups of what’s called qualities or modalities, which is another way to describe each zodiac sign’s personality and vibe. If you’re an astro fan, you might know that each of the 12 zodiac signs has an element-fire, water, earth, or air. ![]() Not only that your messages are protected at all times, but you can easily access them from any mobile or desktop device, no matter where you are.

![]() Some gyms have one trainer while others have several. If you have a few bags, an area for exercise, and a place to spar, all that you are missing is a knowledgeable trainer. You had good sparring available whether you were big or small. The best equipment in the gym were the fighters. We may not have had a ring, but we had some fierce sparring sessions in that basement. In other words, if you were in that gym, you were there because you wanted to fight. What I loved about that gym was that it was so crude that only a highly motivated fighter would journey down those basement steps. After the initial clean up, we brought in a few lights, hung a few bags, and got back to training. Fortunately, like most boxing gyms, we operated like one large family so everyone helped out to get our new home ready for action. When we first set up shop, it was nothing but a dark and dreary basement. My trainer at the time did not want to lose his boxing program so he decided to move the gym to the projects. We began training in that basement after our community center gym was forced to shut down. I still vividly remember my very first day there. We didn’t even have a ring, but it was one of the best gyms I ever trained at as a young fighter. The image was taken in the basement of a housing project. In the picture above, you will see an old photo of me sparring back in the 1990s. The flashiest exercise machine in the world cannot teach you how to jab. Some of the best boxing gyms in the world operate on minimal budgets with minimal equipment. Just as you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, you should not judge a boxing gym by its equipment. In all my years, I’ve yet to see a heavy bag throw a punch a back. If you don’t have anyone to spar, there is only so much that you can learn. As I have said many times before, sparring is essential for any competitive fighter. What has kept other fighters from choosing the gym?Ī gym without fighters will always be limited. And if he doesn’t have any fighters there, you’d have to wonder why. The most knowledgeable trainer in the world will be limited if he does not have any other fighters at his gym. Ultimately, the end product will always give you a good idea of what you can expect from the gym. What fighters train at the gym? What fighters have been developed there? Does the gym have amateur fighters who compete locally and nationally? Are there any active professional boxers who currently train there? Take a ride down to the gym and see who is there. Perhaps most importantly, the best way to determine the quality of a boxing gym is by observing the end product. The natural question therefore is how do you know if you have found a good boxing gym? It is essential that you learn from a knowledgeable trainer and spar with experienced fighters. As mentioned previously, you cannot teach yourself how to box at a high level. In my last entry, I stressed how important it is for an aspiring boxer to train at a real boxing gym. ![]() Maybe if you actually say what you want and make a move for it, without always worrying about how they would feel, you’d actually have a shot at things. Just because you’re nice enough to be considerate of their feelings does not mean you always have to step on your toes and hold back on saying/confessing your feelings. The most important thing to keep in mind here is that your feelings matter just as much as theirs. Cold hands are often a sign that your body is trying to maintain its. It’s okay to help out, even feel generous a few times, but it’s never a good idea to establish that they can take you for a ride. Cold hands may be caused by simply being in a cold room or other chilly environment. One of the best compliments for a girl that guarantees a red face with a big smile is that you tell them how much she makes you smile. Every Time I Look at You I Have to Smile. Those are the kind of words she will love you for. Stop giving the other person an opportunity to take advantage of you and hold back on that urge to offer your card EVERY SINGLE TIME. Tell her that she is more caring, more intelligent and more eloquent than other girls. Stop Paying For Everythingīeing chivalrous is always received well, but what isn’t, is being an ATM to your potential partner and letting them know that they can exploit you left, right and centre. ![]() I get it, you’re a good-hearted person who seldom likes to enter a conflict, especially when it comes at the cost of upsetting the other one.īut agreeing with everything the other has to say might turn you into a pushover, and I can tell from experience, that road never ends well. Not to forget, the chances of you coming across as 'desperate' also go up by that much. It doesnt make you a bad/weird/gross person. We were prepared for a girl, had nothing at all for a boy. That same study found that 98.9 of male participants have masturbated, starting around 12 and 13. You don’t have to go over the top and try too hard to win her interest or validation because that would only increase her expectations, putting more pressure on you going forward. With my 5 yr old I had 3 U/S’s with 3 different techs, all 3 said it was a girl, some of the U/S pictures even say its a girl on them but he is a handsome little boy.
