resources

Hmmm. Looks like there is a drive here containing practical resources on

gardening and small scale agriculure;

foraging and preserving;

knitting, crochet, and sewing;

organising!

AND more theory-ish readings on:

Sustainable development;

Ecological imperialism and food sovreignety;

climate grief and the psychology of sustainability.

& also there is a ko-fi link attached to it.

How cool!

summer activities WITHOUT screens⋆.ೃ࿔*:･🍹

this post is inspired by THIS ask from my inbox and all about activities that u can do this summer that dont include staring at a screen…💬🎀 (@aanglebones)

ON UR OWN ;

start a coloring book

find a craft tutorial on youtube and follow it

try thrifting and flipping clothes

buy urself some books and read

currently im reading crime and punishment, psycho cybernetics, and madness and civilization…💬🎀

learn a new skill (like doing ur own nails)

try ur hand at writing a book/poetry

use air dry clay/arts and crafts in general

WITH COMPANY ;

if ur trying to stay off ur phone, do so with company! doing things with ur friends is such an easy way to stay off ur screen because you guys can interact with each other and you won't feel the desire to get on ur phone/computer because u have their company.

have a picnic with ur friends

do any sort of challenge with ur friends (for example the deaf, blind, mute baking challenge)

go places with ur friends (trampoline park, the beach etc)

some more horror movie goosebumps covers

sometimes you need dialogue tags and don't want to use the same four

if sinners (2025) taught me anything, it's that it IS actually always about race.

you can be oppressed, and still promote and maintain the very same systems of oppression onto other marginalized people. being oppressed in one dimension doesn't allow you to be exempt from oppressing in other dimensions. the "villain" of the movie, remmick, being from the time period of the english colonization of ireland, all the while wanting to take a piece of sammie's own culture from him, use him for it. and this plot point coming after remmick witnesses the significance of sammie's playing within his culture, for his ancestors and how it would shape Black culture in the future.

even in today's society, ive noticed that people treat Black people like a commodity. our worth is only as much as other people decide it to be, and that's usually dependent on how much the oppressor can take from us. for example, the controversy of"internet slang" and how it is blatantly just AAVE with a bad disguise on

do you listen to Black musicians? do you watch Black movies? do you engage with Black creators? do you defend the racist tendencies you notice in your friends, in your family, or do you stay silent? do you listen when Black people tell you you've said or done something racist? do you actually care about not being racist, or do you just not want to look like you're racist?

i just think people have a very specific take on what racism is, and that if they're not committing KKK-levels of violence on people, then they're not racist. or if you've experienced oppression in one form, you cannot possibly be engaging with oppression in another form. but the ways in which we interact with other people and the world will always be through the lens of race, because that is simply what it means for oppression to be systemic, especially in the US and our current political climate

anyway 10/10 movie. highly recommend
