+ i didn’t mean 2 indicate that ur laptop/travel situate[s]d u in a top privilege_bubble; more 2 push out there the question of just how elastic r notions of “wealth”/consumption/experientiality?

I completely understand that you think flying internationally with a laptop reeks of priviledge…but all is not as it seems. It is absolutely wonderful what I do, and what I have the opportunity to do. But don’t assume for one second that these items and events are bundled together with a whole *priviledge package*. That is not the case…and is part of the difficulty I find in keeping multiple realities together.

when u begin 2 describe ur reaction 2 the two-tone bag + how it’s indicative of certain str[uts]ains>thought processes>constructs u’ve de[n]veloped during thesis time, i thought u were going 2 launch elsewhere…namely, 2wards a desire 4 reorientation of ur need to match outfits in terms of established pre-patterned schemas [ie matching implying an adherence 2 pre-set fashion/design standards?]. which leads me 2 ur idea of “thrift[iness]“…the 1st association that jumps out from my perceptually-filtered version of _Christy Dena_ [:)] is techne. u mention a laptop + flying back from london; in my [often whack-job-mezangelled] sphere these 2 mentions indicate a certain amount of privilege + resource-allocation away from bar[aw]e subs[ex]istence. it’s interesting how notions of wealth/monetary values/ shift according 2 circumstance, context, and experience.

looking 4ward 2 observing [+ commenting_on;)] the various psychological/internal_screens in motion during these casts, christy. this type of reveal/unravel has wunder.full potentiality:)

thx!
