Pisces

gregarious, talkative (perhaps a little too much), very dry
sense of humor, political zealot and proselytizer for the
erosion of white supremacy, patriarchy, and homophobia,
i.e.-those everyday things that kill people's souls. A music
fanatic-I listen to music for the joy it brings but also
because it gives me reason to go on living. I'm a fairly
anxious person but not as joyless and grim as the above
suggests! My favorite quote is James Baldwin's
unforgettable statement, "the despair among the loveless is
that they must narcotize themselves in order to touch any
human being at all"

someone with similar political convictions who is also aware
that 'absolute refusal' is impossible in a late global
capitalist world. hopefully someone who is a moderate music
fanatic and critical thinker. a person who understands that
the perpetuation of the heterosexual nuclear family and all
its vicissitudes is a guarantee that patriarchy will persist
ad nauseam. in other words, family in the widest sense of
the term is something that matters to you. If you are into
hard left critical theory and jumping up and down while
listening to music, we'd get along quite well.
