Marius Mason’s 2025 Statement for June 11
"So…these times are a challenge to any who desire real freedom, who passionately espouse justice and who honor and respect human dignity – and who persist in the belief that we are responsible for each other and to each other and our shared home, this Earth. The strength to face this challenge will come from solidarity…this is always our secret weapon against the venal brutalities of fascism."

🫘💚 In #Fermentorskab we have been playing around with the challenge of how to get more proteins - without relying on animals or ultra-processed monocultures 🌿
3 of the foods we presented in a workshop were: patties, patees and buns - all made with legumes 🫘
We also felt it was important to start discussions about food literacy: which legumes do you like? Which flavourings?
And instead of recipes, we gave intuitions for cooking with legumes, which people can then suit to their preferences 💚
An Obituary for Identity Politics by Flower Bomb
"Imagine what anarchy would look like if people refused to obey the condescending demands of identity politicians. Would people feel more free to explore their lives beyond the narrow limitations of prescribed identity? Would they fearlessly reclaim their power to formulate their own opinions? Is there a joy to be experienced in the hysterical mockery of academic elitism?"

Modern animal farming is polluting at levels beyond comprehension.
By Carey Gillam Iowa regulators are failing to properly penalize Iowa factory farms for illegally contaminating state waterways with animal waste, according to an analysis released Monday by a public health advocacy group. Between 2013 and 2023, the Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR) recorded 179 incidents in which livestock operators discharged manure in violation of the law, fouling creeks and rivers and killing off more than one million fish, according to Food & Water Watch, which based its report on a review of state discharge enforcement reports. The quantities of discharges ranged up to 1 million gallons, the group said. The findings show a “state in crisis,” according to the group, which said its analysis found “no area of the state is safe from manure discharging into waterways.” The group noted the violators have paid less than $750,000 in penalties for the illegal actions, despite the fact that such spills can carry harmful contaminants known to cause birth defects, cancers and other health problems in people. “While factory farms spur on Iowa’s worsening water pollution crisis, the state is letting corporate giants get off with barely a slap on the wrist,” Food & Water Watch organizer Michaelyn Mankel said in a statement.

I think little describes humanity as well as the fact that after Finding Nemo and Finding Dory were released sales of tropical fish skyrocketed. Literally two films about how horrible it is to keep animals confined.

The only bird endemic to the island of Bali, it is critically endangered. There are captive breeding and release programs on the island, but it is still under pressure from the caged bird trade.
