My #1 advice for people moving out is to NOT buy nonstick cookware... not only is the lifespan of nonstick a MAXIMUM of 7 years (usually more like 2-5 years) but teflon, aka Polytetrafluoroethylene-- the plastic coating that makes the cookware nonstick, infuses microplastics into your food.

New cookware sets can cost hundreds of dollars so my advice is to look for 100% stainless steel cookware in thrift stores. Safer, cheaper, & instead of needing to replace every 2-7 years they can potentially last you the entire rest of your life AND they won't start shedding plastic into your food

I picked up a stainless steel pot & skillet at the thrift store yesterday for $25. In all likelihood they will last for at least a decade (but probably much longer) regardless of how long they were used before I picked them up.

The two nonstick casserole dishes I had to throw in the trash yesterday due to the Teflon coating peeling off costed $30 + tax and lasted less than 4 years.

When your partner has a praise kink but you're Montessori trained so you know that praise is an ineffective way to encourage development and it's much more productive to acknowledge their effort so that they learn to effectively give themselves feedback so they can develop a healthy intrinsic motivation instead of deriving their self worth from labels put on them by other people .... "baby it's amazing how much you could last today compared to last week"

daily reminder that boycotting is not a moral stance but a political strategy, so the whole “there’s no ethical consumption under capitalism” argument is not the gotcha you think it is

you can refer to BDS if you’d like a list of companies to focus your efforts on. you can refer to this website if you’d like to become more conscientious about what you’re buying and check for brands/products to avoid.

*please note that i am a palestinian who has been boycotting my entire life. do not try to explain to me in the tags or reblogs or replies what a targeted boycott is or complain about giving up your comfort for something that you (incorrectly) believe does not make an impact. being quiet is free. exercise your right to remain silent today.

LISTEN: "Keep It to Myself" by Sadye

Sadye returns with her third infectious track of the year, and it’s an absolute banger. Produced by Slush Puppy (known for working with artists Leah Kate and Nessa Barrett), “Keep It to Myself” is a lively alt-pop smash. Filled to the brim with infectious beats, the song is and will be an anthem for those who are infatuated or in situationship. If you’re blessed to not be either, then “Keep It…

I love Matilda because it's a story about a child who sees injustice around her and gets mad about it and questions why things aren't fair, and instead of the ending being that she learns how the world works and that life isn't fair, she catapults one of the adults who abused her out of a building with her mind
