Meet Exec - Caleb '19.5
| by Caleb Green
loves of my life
hello! my name is caleb (but I also go by C) and I am your social
media manager for the fall semester. I am a super senior feb-dancer-queer-type
A-highly stylized-leo squish ball of a person. I speak (and think) almost
exclusively in run on sentences which makes ‘and’ one of my favorite words of
all time. I love star trek and spent this summer finishing deep space 9 so if
you are also in love with jadzia dax we have a lot to talk about. I also
performed professionally(????? ish) for the first time, was the MiddSafe summer
advocate for language schools and did my first fast ‘n loose radio show
I am also a leftist and aspiring communist so I spent a lot
of this summer thinking about ownership and possession. I read ‘The Dispossesed’
by ursula le guin, where one of the spoken languages, pravic, had no words to
describe the state of possessing something else. so for example children don’t have
the words for “my” mother there is only “the” mother. so I spent this summer
turning that into a concrete, everyday practice
so here are 8 songs I have been jamming to this summer and 8
organizations I have donated to. because redistributing your wealth to people
who need it ??? that’s PURAHXIS
