DID YOU KNOW…. #Humans are not innately flawed animals. What we call “Humans” (The Homo Genus) evolved at least 2.5 million years ago. Our current species, #HomoSapiens, hasn’t changed significantly in the last 200,000 years. If humans were innately flawed we would not have #survived this long.

Many #ancestralskills today are created with an individualist mindset, #frictionfire being one of them. But in older times, people worked together to create fire, understanding that #community and togetherness was an important part of their #survival. www.patreon.com/posts/149272...

As someone who was there it was clear that ICE intended to fire teargas on the labor march, directing shots over the heads of those closest to the building and firing munitions directly at the crowd. They even chose munitions that would have the widest possible effect.
Shameful that the Portland Mayor said that “outside agitators” were responsible for triggering ICE’s assault on thousands of union members last Saturday. Then @pdxoregon50501.bsky.social threw out the ED of @jwjpdx.bsky.social for holding the mayor accountable.

DID YOU KNOW…. #Rewilding doesn't mean going back to living as #huntergatherers. Well, maybe for some! But not for most of us. That way of life is and was dependent upon a plethora of #megafauna that are now all but extinct in most regions of the world. www.rewildportland.com/rewilding-101

It’s a really weird thing to have lived for over 25 years in an #existentialcrisis that just keeps fucking going. When you kind of have this understanding of systems #collapse and #diminishing-returns it’s simple math to understand society will collapse hard at some point.

Did you know "agriculture" probably doesn't mean what you think it means?... The word #agriculture is two parts: agri + #culture. The word "agri" means #field and "culture" means to cultivate. Agriculture is literally "field #cultivation."

Finding inspiration in other organizations that are keeping ancestral skills alive is an important part of running your own organization. In this episode I chat with Neal Ritter of the Laughing Coyote Project, a non-profit teaching earthskills in Colorado since 2007. www.patreon.com/posts/runnin...

#Rewilding reconnects people to a #regenerative relationship with the lands where we dwell. #SolarPunk offers a transitional type of living that could help soften the blow of a collapsing industrial technological system–or may even represent a kind of #sustainable #futurism. tinyurl.com/4udrm7pc

The Rutgers TPUSA chapter — whose characterization of a historian there as a “outspoken, well-known antifa member” led to death threats and moving his family to Europe — think *other* people are being “blatantly defamatory.”

Not them, though. They’re doing politics the right way.

Friends and comrades made a crowdfunding page for my family.

It’s really hard to post this. I know that there are a lot of other important issues asking for money but things have gotten to the point where we need to open ourselves up to your support.

Thank you for your consideration.

20 minute clematis basket. A great little “survival” basket that I usually teach with English ivy. It’s a great lesson in all the important parts of weaving a basket: the start, the walls, and the rim. ❤️🧺
