Grief
Planting trees, shrubs, herbs, roots, vines for food, medicine, fiber, fuel, as many hours per day as can.
Tending the sick, wounded, broken.
Triage. Hospice.
Finding out what stuff we are made of.

@breadandcircuses It's even worse when you realize that the companies behind the ads that promoted these stances were the ones causing the biggest problems in the first place. I was alive for all of those and I followed all of them.
