  • Wait! What if I Am Sitting on Gum?

    Hey again!

    We have to just come to the best part of the week haven’t we!

    Haha!

    The part of the week or the weekend when you can watch or you can see and hear more of the conversation that Heather Zinger and I did continue to have at Lindenwood Park in Fargo, North Dakota!

    We did talk about so much, like our identities and our strengths, and who it is that we are supposed to be spending our time with and whether or not every single person you do see is supposed to be loved!

    Hahaha!

    And that was not all!

    No!

    No!

    Do give this upload or this video a look and discover just we had to say to each other about if being disabled is a good thing!

    Do!

    Do! https://youtu.be/-P_wHzpdtvM

  • You Know I Probably Could Offer to Help

    Hey!

    Oh hey!

    So were John and Heather Zinger being too, too literal by sitting themselves next to a fountain at Lindenwood Park in Fargo, North Dakota and discussing their own experiences as neurodivergent members of the community?

    Whether they do consider themselves “fountains of knowledge” or of inspiration or ideas is entirely, entirely up to you but they talk and talk they did with their own backs on the ground and their eyes pointed right towards the sky, and to the future!

    Haha!

    Do find out what they did have so say today! https://youtu.be/NSZ2JfzZqeQ

    Here in this third episode of the second season of Where Are You From? the informative and the impassioned and vehement discussion with good, good friend and artist Heather Zinger does come to a conclusion at Island Park in Fargo because, well, it did have to end at some point right!

    While sitting together and sharing our own thoughts and our own views Heather did plug a book titled No Hugs! that had been written by Deirdre Prischmann and illustrated by Sarah Jennings!

    And you can see more of Heather and me going on and on and on and on about mental health and about the artistic process and when it may be proper or necessary for activism and for advocacy to be paused or to be halted, and about just how much it is that a diagnosis does or is supposed to define a certain person and so much more so very, very soon y’know!

    Oh!
