I created the word ‘inter-membral’ as a way to break through the limiting boundaries of colonialist vocabulary. A conversation about “the refugee problem” set in the context of a country that delivers weaponry to aggressors to maintain exploitation that is beneficial to them, is an example of a conversation that can’t be held in a vacuum, but that needs to be discussed “intermembrally”.
“Precisely because they too are specimens of modern thought, the available critical tools cannot support an ethico-political intervention capable of undermining cultural difference’s capacity to produce an unbridgeable ethical divide.”- Denise Fereira da Silva
As the language these tools speak is created and pursued in and for a context of oppression, it is impossible to break out of them without changing our vocabulary.
And so I created a word that can signify that in a text or in an argument I am encompassing many truths and existants. As Da Silva says we; ´could image The World as a Plenum, an infinite composition in which each existant’s singularity is contingent upon its becoming one possible expression of all the other existants, with which it is entangled beyond space and time.´
If we can embody the belief that we are indeed connected to and entangled with all, we can start taking responsibility in our actions.

Being so in love with someone that you skip meals in order to spend time with them, or don’t eat until you’re with them. It also refers to being so full of life that you don’t feel the need to eat.

Person 1: " Why does every show have an inter-emission randomly thrown in? It kills the momentum."
Person 2: " I guess the producers expect you jack off halfway through the show."
