Soviet poster of 1978, criticizing the aggressions of Israel against the Palestinian people. Drawing of Evgeny Abramovich Kazhdan. In the text in highlight at the top of the work, it reads: "Those who fight against oppression are maintained in imprisoned in the Palestinians occupied by Israel.

everything everywhere all at once is about intergenerational trauma. about depression and passive suicidality and the gravitational appeal of nothingness. about aging, getting older in your twenties and getting older in your fifties. about the specific hurt mothers can cause their daughters and daughters their mothers. about the harsh reality of the immigrant experience and the american dream. but it’s mostly about kindness and family and it’s about choosing to sit at home talking about taxes with someone who loves you, and it’s about telling your daughter that you’d choose her over the entire universe, and it’s about how even in the universes where life didn’t form, love can still exist. and it’s really all of that at once.
