Here’s a link to a petition to protect Native American land in NC from a gas station chain which poses immense environmental threats, has violated workers rights, and will destroy land with historical significance to natives. My ancestors traveled the trading path they plan to build over. Please sign if you have a moment

Donkey Skin (1970) dir. Jacques Demy

i finished watching this and an absolutely haunted by what i've seen. the fairy godmother songs a song to explain that incest is unwise. the king's throne is a giant cat. no one ever really explains to the princess why she needs to wear a donkey skin but that's ok because no one ever asks her what's up with that either. all the horses are painted blue or red. the prince's romance is conducted mostly in a dream sequence. the globe in the wizard's study prominently displays north america.

there's a helicopter.

Throwback to when I took painkillers and woke up with Photoshop open on my computer to this image I had made

Today, please take a moment to remember that there is still so much beauty and complexity and amazing, inexplicable wonder in the world. We are not lost. The Earth is not lost. There is still so much worth fighting for.

“The climate crisis is ongoing. And, also, a bird is building a nest in the eaves outside my window. Come spring, there will be new birth. In shaky hands, I hold these two truths together.”

Garlean pizza for Kayla!! 🍕

thinking over and over and over of that clip from a maya angelou talk about the importance of knowing one another's history. no matter how brutal no matter how bleak no matter how despairing no matter anything because the only way through it is to go all the way through it. and the only way to build anything with one another is by having gone all the way through it because otherwise there is no connection. whats a connection worth that's built on ignorance? sustained by ignorance? "only equals can make friends" she says. only equals.

clip here. full talk here.

and is your shame helpful? is it inspiring goodness and change? or is it keeping you frozen in time unable to move on and be everything you have expanded to be?
