#GriefWork

2025-06-01

Between the irises transplanted from her garden blooming and refinishing her tool chest, my mom is here in spirit. She was a complicated human, but she sure knew plants and antiques, and she taught me about them.
I hope I get to feeling less complicated about her. I guess that hope -wanting to hold what was good and let it be larger than the painful stuff- is what love is right now.

I'm contemplating putting something together for Jan 20. I want to have a gathering that day for like-minded folks to chat about ways to keep our hearts and humanity intact in the coming years. I'll include WTR, mindfulness, grief and grounding practices. I think firming our commitment to community right now is the way forward. I'd love to hear your thoughts. Is this something you would attend? #workthatreconnects #GriefWork #climate #climateaction #community #resilience

This is mostly copypasted from my other #introduction post, since I think it's the bestest one I've written thus far :)

I'm a #writer. I like to write about #grief, #QueerIdentity, #hope, #praxis, and #harm + #reciprocity. (my websites are in my links!)

I have trained as a #DeathDoula, and I engage in #GriefWork & #DeathWork with and for my best beloveds: the #LGBTQIA2S+ community.

In my spare time you can find me hyperfocusing on whatever it is that I can't stop thinking about. I love a new game, a new favorite song, a new project management solution, and thinking about my chosen family and intentional community.

I'm #pagan, I am training in an old mystery tradition of pre-Gardnerian British traditional #witchcraft. We are from a long time ago and we are doing what it takes to support, love, and keep safe the people in our communities.

I will always fight for your right to #choose. I believe this right is a fundamental human gift.

I'm here to do an #introduction post since my nicest one went down in flames when firefish.lgbt disappeared, god rest her soul

I write about
#QueerIdentity, #Death, #Hope, #Praxis, & #SongLyrics at the Infinite at https://nixkelley.com. My inspiration to write usually comes when songs and poetry remind me what is true.

I currently live on Anishinaabeg land in what is called Michigan, in the lower half of the mitten, between the Great Lakes.

I am a trained
#DeathDoula. I engage in #DeathWork and #GriefWork for my community, using a reciprocity model rather than a capitalist structure. I write Paths That Lead Home, essays for the dying and their loved ones. You can sign up for it at https://everonandon.com, my deathwork website.

I'm currently training in a pre-Gardnerian Celtic oathbound lineaged oral mystery tradition of
#BritishTraditionalWitchcraft. I serve the community wherever I live (and wherever I can travel digitally), as a layperson for now and as clergy once I reach an appropriate level of training.

I am a
#pagan #polytheist and #animist. I live in an intentional community with my #ChosenFamily, and we are learning how to do this as we go, taking inspiration from indigenous Celtic tribe-based communal living.

I'm a
#gamer. My current rotation of PC games is #IXION, #MaskOfTheRose, #OxygenNotIncluded, & #LOTRO. I have a deep love for #DeathStranding #Fallout4 #ESO #Skyrim & #Frostpunk. On the Switch, I'm playing #CozyGrove #OregonTrail & #NotTonight.

I'm a
#knitter & my Ravelry profile is https://ravelry.com/people/nixkelley

I am a
#polyam person and I currently have two partners. I watch queer media whenever possible. I love ridiculous #paranormal media. My favorite kind of humor is dark.

#AltText is the rule: my avatar is a selfie I took, framing my face and one of my tattooed arms. I have pale skin and in this photo my hair is dark.

I was at a funeral last week where the person conducting it referred to us - all of the people who knew the person who had died - as their eulogy, more than any words could possibly be.

That idea felt beautiful and profound and true and I keep thinking about it. 💜
