Yes! Plus crossover to light industrial, with the title song sung in reference to those who sew, and accompanying a crafting weekend

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

A very small splitgill mushroom bursts from a stick like a tiny firework, held up above a wet forest floor. There is another even smaller mushroom next to it

Listen, things are fucked, but that doesn’t mean your accomplishments don’t matter. Wrote a book? Got accepted to a program? Recorded a song? One year sober? Whatever it is, share it. Maybe your joy will bring someone else a bit of joy, and we all need that.

Starting the week off in the right frame of mind. Acts of kindness as #resistance. We have to remind each other of our humanity.

Not tracking yet but clearing out, mending, and tidying. It feels good to look at my clothes and know that I want to wear them all.

Holding space for possibility requires continually and consistently choosing to believe and to imagine.

It’s an active state, ESPECIALLY in the face of disempowering factors and ESPECIALLY if you’re part of marginalized communities.

In fact, it’s a lot like active hope married to imagination

Local woman wakes up, screams into the void so loudly that the void is like what the fuck, local woman, tone it down over there please, makes oatmeal.

🧵 1/3 Hi. Advertising background here. Since we all care about this Canadian origin of products all of sudden here's a very short thread about how to parse labels and stickers. Certain labels mean very specific things with regards to origin and the Competition Bureau is fussy about it.

The best traditions have that magical element of “but how did…?” And tasty snacks.
