A few weeks ago, I was in a grocery store (in a small town in the middle of nowhere) minding my own business. All of a sudden, this song is playing and I find myself floating through the aisles. Who could this band be? Was this from the 60's? I quickly pulled out my phone to use a song identifier app.

Turns out, it's a Swedish band and the song was released in 2010. What an unanticipated setting to stumble across this gem 💎

You can do the same with miso paste, or,
if you buy garlic on sale, crush it with the flat blade of a knife and portion it onto parchment paper, freeze , bag, and return to the freezer.

Have leftover tomato paste after a recipe? Of course you do! Here's a smart way save it to use later.

-Take a piece of parchment paper.
-Place on top of a plate.
-Drop tablespoon blobs of tomato paste on top of parchment.
-Put the plate with tomato paste in the freezer.
-Once frozen, remove from parchment.
-Put frozen blobs in a freezer safe container or bag and put back in the freezer.

Voilà! Recipe friendly, waste free 🍅

It is bravery
To feel deeply
In a world
Perpetually
Numb.

Please boost to make sure that everyone who’s on mstdn.ca is aware of the current situation with their instance so they can prepare. I see so many people who are still unaware even that the State of the instance event was cancelled, let alone that their instance is currently at risk.

Without sharing the reading list I just emailed to a friend, here's what various feminist writers/thinkers have posited as ways to smash the patriarchy.

IOW, we *have a roadmap.* We don't need to flap our hands and say, Oh noes....the Patriarchy is too bigs!

intersectional collective action.
align feminism with global anti-capitalist movements.
build power through difference, not by flattening it.
abolitionist frameworks as gender liberation
integrate feminist choices into everyday life.
reclaim maternal power while rejecting compulsory roles.
collectivize care; de-privatize parenting
wages for care, refusal of unpaid reproductive labor.
reproductive justice = autonomy + material conditions, not just “choice.”
chosen family as infrastructure.
abolish biological family as destiny; redesign kinship.

This isn't your normal "looking for work" post.

I've decided to shut my business and do more volunteer / community work.

If you know of an organisation which could use a board member with strong digital skills, extensive experience in open source and open standards, or cybersecurity please let me know.

Nothing full time. Personal recommendations preferred. Feel free to share.
