🚨 Israël violente et humilie les activistes de la flottille. Greta Thunberg a été traînée par les cheveux, frappée, forcée d’embrasser le drapeau. Le silence des gouvernement est révélateur de leur complicité.

Instead of reporting outside in a hurricane to show viewers how windy or wet it is, TV journalists should report from an oil refinery and explain why the world has become so dangerous.

Here's a structural inequality in data information:

We report how many people die from extreme events like hurricanes, but will never know how many lives are SAVED by advanced #weather and #climate forecasts from NOAA and the National Weather Service, the very organizations the Republicans are trying to eliminate or privatize in #Project2025.

watching this talk @kissane gave for @xoxo and its really one to blow your hair back. I didnt realize the americans had it quite so bad and its an unfortunately frequent bittersweet flavour of hope I get from the stories of community and volunteerism that rise out of being so unsupported and underresourced

Gives me fuel in the tank. I want to be a Builder.

Once in a while, you come across something that drastically changes the way you see the world, and the change is irreversible.

Sex, drugs, and quantum mechanics come to mind.

It's like a window being opened, that lets you see outside the box you've been in. And it has a one-time latch: once open, this window will never be closed again.

Last night, @DarkOptimism opened such a window for me, by posting an article.

A conversation with Daniel Christian Wahl, about his work on regenerative bioregions, and his thinking on what science should become 👉https://overcast.fm/+2tlX-iVuo

For him, his current path began with *unlearning* at Schumacher College. A place of education which has now closed, as @DarkOptimism wrote about last week https://mastodon.social/@urlyman/113083760690897370

Bioregional Futures: Reconnecting to Place for Planetary Health with Daniel Christian Wahl — The Great Simplification with Nate Hagens

(Conversation recorded on July 24th, 2024) In the past century of abundant energy surplus, humanity’s globalized, large-scale approach to problem-solving has yielded remarkable benefits and innovations. However, as we face a future with…

It’s funny how
when we think of a grape hyacinth
(if we think of one at all)
we think of it as a “flower”—
a reproductive organ—
blushing for a season,
and then gone,

the leaves
lasting
just a little longer…

and the bulb
might as well be part of the dirt
for all most care,
when that is actually
precisely
the part that persists,
the part that holds
the essence
of spring
down
in
the dark
down
in
its
quiet
cloistered
heart.

How amazing
to think in BIO 101
we were taught that we are nothing
but battle tanks
to carry around our sex organs in,
giant talking bulbs,
with thoughts,
with wheels & wings
and weapons
and
feelings
and
things
