We're ready, Yes, it's time for listener questions. Okay, 256 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:07,640 Speaker 1: So the first one is being the mommies of myth 257 00:14:07,720 --> 00:14:11,080 Speaker 1: and bullshit and allusion to one of Sandra sis Nettle's poems. 258 00:14:11,400 --> 00:14:16,520 Speaker 1: Now it is Zdinding correct, So the very first capito 259 00:14:18,559 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: no local epistemologies we actually discussed like the poem Loose 260 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: Woman by Sandra STOs, which is where the mommies of 261 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:29,920 Speaker 1: myth and Bullshit comes from. She says, I am a 262 00:14:29,960 --> 00:14:34,400 Speaker 1: woman of myth and bullshit, and she also in the 263 00:14:34,440 --> 00:14:36,960 Speaker 1: poem goes on to talk about how like I'm a 264 00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: woman of myth and bullshit and yes I authored some 265 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:43,040 Speaker 1: of it, right, So our whole idea and We've talked 266 00:14:43,080 --> 00:14:46,640 Speaker 1: about this before in the podcast. The idea in creating 267 00:14:46,680 --> 00:14:49,640 Speaker 1: an audio archive and creating a radio phonic novella in 268 00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 1: which we and our friends and our folks are at 269 00:14:52,560 --> 00:14:56,560 Speaker 1: the center, right, is like we are writing our own mythology. 270 00:14:56,600 --> 00:14:59,360 Speaker 1: We're creating our own narrative and like our own archive 271 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: of our lives, and we're documenting our bullshit ourselves, you know, 272 00:15:03,600 --> 00:15:06,880 Speaker 1: like you can't rewrite our history because we're writing it ourselves. 273 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,239 Speaker 1: We're documenting it as we go. Absolutely from the podcast 274 00:15:10,440 --> 00:15:13,760 Speaker 1: to the Instagram and the selfies and the stories and 275 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:17,600 Speaker 1: the posts and the tweets, like it's all documentation, you know, 276 00:15:17,680 --> 00:15:22,080 Speaker 1: like we have written what's happened right, right, And if 277 00:15:22,120 --> 00:15:25,760 Speaker 1: you think about like ancestry and like communities, right, a 278 00:15:25,760 --> 00:15:27,720 Speaker 1: lot of stuff gets lost and a lot of stuff 279 00:15:27,720 --> 00:15:31,000 Speaker 1: isn't documented or archives. So it's really important now. Like 280 00:15:31,320 --> 00:15:34,240 Speaker 1: now I think about, like, um, like what does that 281 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:37,120 Speaker 1: queer ancestry look like? Like a lot of our elders, 282 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: Like we don't have a lot of elders. Like if 283 00:15:39,280 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: you think about like the queer community or even like 284 00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,880 Speaker 1: fem fem elders, so like thinking about that and honoring 285 00:15:44,920 --> 00:15:47,440 Speaker 1: like what what legacy are we leaving for, like the 286 00:15:47,560 --> 00:15:51,680 Speaker 1: queer fem women of color folks that are to follow us, 287 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:54,040 Speaker 1: you know, like what are we leaving behind to keep 288 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: building off of? So I think that that's something that 289 00:15:57,080 --> 00:15:59,360 Speaker 1: we're doing, and like that is where where mommy submit 290 00:15:59,440 --> 00:16:02,160 Speaker 1: and bullshit from and like mommies because we're mummies, because 291 00:16:02,200 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: our mommies, because why not because mommy and for me too. 292 00:16:06,480 --> 00:16:09,040 Speaker 1: I think there's a part of what we've done with 293 00:16:09,080 --> 00:16:11,600 Speaker 1: the podcasts and with just our social media is like 294 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:14,360 Speaker 1: creating your own hype. You know, you gotta create your 295 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:17,480 Speaker 1: own hype. You gotta you gotta name yourself and tell 296 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: people that your bomb right right right, you know. So 297 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:23,120 Speaker 1: we named we named ourselves the mommy's ad myth and bullshit. 298 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:26,200 Speaker 1: Nobody like bestowed that upon us. It's not like we 299 00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,480 Speaker 1: earned it and somebody recognized us with that. No, we 300 00:16:28,600 --> 00:16:31,280 Speaker 1: created that for ourselves. We made that, you know, we 301 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:35,440 Speaker 1: became it. And so just for anybody who's interested in, 302 00:16:35,680 --> 00:16:39,360 Speaker 1: you know, pursuing some type of a creative project or 303 00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 1: if you yourself are the creative project, not being afraid 304 00:16:42,200 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: to hype yourself up in those ways. Yeah, And I 305 00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:48,200 Speaker 1: mean I think everything that we do is like not 306 00:16:48,400 --> 00:16:51,320 Speaker 1: for the mail gates, right, And that's what like being 307 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:53,520 Speaker 1: like fem is right. You're doing it for yourself and 308 00:16:53,560 --> 00:16:56,400 Speaker 1: you're doing it to be empowered and you're like owning 309 00:16:56,440 --> 00:17:00,160 Speaker 1: this femininity and it's not because you are doing it 310 00:17:00,280 --> 00:17:02,040 Speaker 1: for the mail gays, you know what I mean. So 311 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,080 Speaker 1: there's so much power in doing it for yourself and 312 00:17:04,119 --> 00:17:06,440 Speaker 1: like doing it in community, which is what we do. 313 00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,199 Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, yeah, and we do. I think the 314 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:13,800 Speaker 1: myth part is important for us because we talk about 315 00:17:13,800 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: going back to look at pistemologies. We will look at 316 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:21,600 Speaker 1: historical traditional cultural myths and mythologies and unpack it and 317 00:17:21,600 --> 00:17:23,520 Speaker 1: look for the survivor narrative. A lot of what we 318 00:17:23,560 --> 00:17:26,320 Speaker 1: do is counter narrative, Like our podcast is a giant 319 00:17:26,320 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 1: counter narrative. So I think that for us that tagline 320 00:17:31,320 --> 00:17:33,480 Speaker 1: ties into it too. We don't need to be like, 321 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:38,119 Speaker 1: we don't need to be useful in a utilitarian way 322 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:40,560 Speaker 1: or academic in a useful way. We can we can 323 00:17:40,600 --> 00:17:43,320 Speaker 1: bullshit and still do it and it still counts and 324 00:17:43,359 --> 00:17:46,800 Speaker 1: you still want to listen to it and it's fine. Yeah, absolutely, 325 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:50,199 Speaker 1: so yeah, yeah, good question, great question. Thank you to 326 00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: whomever submitted that one.

I feel like, um, 335 00:18:22,960 --> 00:18:25,560 Speaker 1: maybe I don't know, but I'm gonna make this guess 336 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,439 Speaker 1: that maybe this woman, this twenty four year old is 337 00:18:28,640 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: um has kind of like outgrown her older friends or 338 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:34,639 Speaker 1: her friends that she's had for for an x amount 339 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: of time a significant yeah, yeah, so she that she 340 00:18:37,760 --> 00:18:41,080 Speaker 1: may feel like she doesn't have any friends, you know 341 00:18:41,119 --> 00:18:43,600 Speaker 1: what I mean? UM? And that's okay. I think we've 342 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,879 Speaker 1: talked about that in another cap where you will it's 343 00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:50,520 Speaker 1: natural to outgrow people and having someone be in your 344 00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:53,360 Speaker 1: life just because you have histories and necessarily the right 345 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,520 Speaker 1: reason to have them in your life. If there's you're 346 00:18:55,560 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: not um really like if there's no like neutral, like exchange, 347 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: like effort, and like all these things that go into 348 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:05,560 Speaker 1: being a good friend. Um, then I mean there there's 349 00:19:05,600 --> 00:19:07,680 Speaker 1: really no point in them serving I mean, being in 350 00:19:07,680 --> 00:19:10,399 Speaker 1: your life that they're not serving anything beneficial for you, 351 00:19:10,520 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. Um, yeah, that is what 352 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: I think about that. It's definitely twenty four is very young, 353 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:22,280 Speaker 1: like you're little, You're little somebody. I'm twenty six and 354 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: someone told me that I was little the other day. 355 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:26,960 Speaker 1: I feel like an older woman was like you're little. Um, 356 00:19:27,000 --> 00:19:29,200 Speaker 1: but yeah, you're really young. If you're twenty four, you're 357 00:19:29,200 --> 00:19:32,959 Speaker 1: really young. And um, you know my mom being an 358 00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:36,280 Speaker 1: older woman, my mom still makes new friends and then 359 00:19:36,359 --> 00:19:40,040 Speaker 1: like like solid friends, like good friends, not just acquaintances, 360 00:19:40,160 --> 00:19:43,800 Speaker 1: you know.

First, I think 468 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:12,520 Speaker 1: it's so fascinating because I don't know that there's like 469 00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,359 Speaker 1: an English language equivalent to the concept. I don't know 470 00:26:15,359 --> 00:26:18,359 Speaker 1: who there is. Like literally, you're a core, you are 471 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:22,800 Speaker 1: co mothering, Yes, you're a co mother and like in 472 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:26,280 Speaker 1: Latino communities, as we all know, to be a mare 473 00:26:26,600 --> 00:26:28,919 Speaker 1: can take a lot of different forms. There can be 474 00:26:28,960 --> 00:26:32,560 Speaker 1: the formal, like you're literally the baptismal like godmother to 475 00:26:32,720 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 1: someone's child, like I have my have that um and 476 00:26:37,760 --> 00:26:40,800 Speaker 1: I baptized her, So I'm like formally, like you know, 477 00:26:41,000 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 1: like my uncle is my mi compadre, you know what 478 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,240 Speaker 1: I mean. And then like the baby's godfather is Michempare 479 00:26:47,359 --> 00:26:49,080 Speaker 1: and then her mom is Michael Madre. So there's like 480 00:26:49,119 --> 00:26:51,920 Speaker 1: that literal way of doing things, and then there's the 481 00:26:51,960 --> 00:26:54,800 Speaker 1: less formal way of being a Yeah. Yeah, and like 482 00:26:55,080 --> 00:27:00,159 Speaker 1: I like, so my Mina is like my mother. So 483 00:27:00,240 --> 00:27:02,159 Speaker 1: like when you're talking about like co mothering, it's like 484 00:27:02,280 --> 00:27:05,919 Speaker 1: absolutely absolutely, Like I think being a Nina is like 485 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:08,320 Speaker 1: a very very big responsibility. It's a very big role 486 00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:12,240 Speaker 1: because she like she mothers me and like all the 487 00:27:12,280 --> 00:27:14,840 Speaker 1: fun ways, you know, like she doesn't have to like 488 00:27:15,280 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: deal with my bullshit, you know, like the way my 489 00:27:17,680 --> 00:27:21,159 Speaker 1: mom had to, right right, but like my Nina like 490 00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:26,320 Speaker 1: she gets to spoil me and like we get to 491 00:27:26,520 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 1: have all the fun you know, and and then that's it, 492 00:27:29,640 --> 00:27:31,359 Speaker 1: you know.
