When it comes to boycotting, just a thought. It’s okay if you can’t quit a company cold turkey. In Master Gardeners, when we encourage people to switch to native plants, the goal is 70% native, not 100%. If you were shopping at a store 80% of the time and cut it back to 60%, that 20% still hurts.

HEADLINE: CDC posts, then deletes, data on bird flu spread between cats and people. The data which appeared fleetingly online on Wednesday, confirmed transmission in two households.

It is evident the CDC is being muzzled SO let’s talk about what YOU can do to PROTECT yourself AND your pets. 🧪🧵 ⬇️

have been thinking a lot about how convenience robs us of community in the last few years — if we are to get through whatever may come, we must learn to prioritize & utilize community
If you want a better world, you must be OK with inconvenience

Mail will be slow, we won't be able to buy stuff from around the world 24/7, we won't always have the newest tech and upgrades won't come out every year, environmentally friendly products might be clunky. Embrace slowness!!!

Creativity is like a houseplant, not an endless well. You need to seek out sunlight, water, and nutrients in art, shows, music, experiences, and more to tend to it. And just like plants it has its dormant and active periods and you may not seem improvement for some time.

You won't be any better at fighting what's coming if you burn yourself out and spend all your time feeling bleak and hopeless, and the people telling you that it's all despair now probably don't have anyone's best interest at heart.

Sometimes you pour pancake batter onto the skillet and realize immediately “wellp, that’s gonna be an ugly one.”

I think art and writing goes the same way.

you can try to fix it while it fries, learn and pour a better one next time, or find the person who wants to eat it in all its ugliness
