Moonyeka ✧ nawa angel a.h. ( they/them )

i don’t seek to exile my disabilities, but rather, rage and love with them so i no longer approach my body as a gentrifier (forcing my spirit to inhabit when my flesh when my body says no).

a hypermobile-fibromyalgia gym-babe guide to building strength training to be apart of the swoletariat

open.substack.com/pub/moonyeka...

if you are a babe with fibromyalgia and/or hypermobility and you have tried and tried and tried to figure out how the fuck to cope with the limitations and hyper extensions of the body and the flares and the bed rot and you go to the gym and maybe you do the chronic pain no-no thing of going hard cause you felt 1% less pain and then you’re laid out on the bed for a week.

i got thighs like Lapu Lapu and wanna make sure, when the time comes, I can employ such defense strategies against any fool :))))))

not all art and expression cares or makes change. not all madness is holier than thou. how can you be with and channel madness so that we aren’t using madness and art (see: Hitler) to create propaganda to make it okay to kill, hurt and harm people?

I envision a future where children are not required to speak the pledge of allegiance ever

restock coming for personal signed copies Jan 15! in 2025, i molted so hard i wrote my first book as biomythographic artifact & 200+ of you bought a copy. as a first time indie published book author this meant the world to me.

stay away from the idea of grasping / gripping. think more a gentle hug

to try this i recommend sitting with your orifices and sitz bones to the ground. when you breathe in let your inner walls and muscles pour open to the ground. i like to imagine a taproot to the soil. when you breathe see if your inner muscle walls in your pelvic floor can move towards eachother.

ideally… when we breathe our genitals and pelvic floor should be butterflying in and out.

keep going

this past year my pelvic floor has been unburrowing from dormancy / i have felt presence and self holding from my pelvic bowl maybe the first time ever!!

(&& i have done a million and one dance/pt/wellness classes-- some of which have added to the traumatization)

I started doing pelvic healing work on myself 12 years ago as a dire expression towards wanting to be more alive/not so hijacked by harm done

I bring this image up because in my own self work and in my client work there has been more disconnection to our literal musculature/nerves of our pelvic floor bowl than I have ever seen before.

the operculum is sometimes described as a “trapdoor

(& if I may i shall extend this to the b/pussy)

the pelvic floor is that of a operculum to a oceanic gastrapod

OG quote by Working Girls Press

am i hot enough to kill? D17

All workers deserve dignity in labor and a life free from criminalization, stigma, and violence. We remember those we’ve lost, especially within this last year, and continue to honor their memory. 🪽"

just wrote about 'am i hot enough to kill?' on substack, read here:

Today we share an excerpt from the beginning of Moonyeka's “am i hot enough to kill?” from - a piece that’s like a dance and an elegy, a tribute, a question, a deep howl of grief and power. It contends with this specter of violence and shows the strength and solidarity within our community.

"D17 ❣️ The day to end violence against sex workers. First commemorated in 2003 as a day to honor and hold vigil for the victims of the Green River killer, we now read out and remember all the siblings we’ve lost to violence, and we hope one day there are no new names to read out.
