One of the most outrageous cases of femicide in Italy. I suggest you search for the full story in case you haven’t followed. Abominable doesn’t even begin to describe it.

Merci ♥️ @carolinehamelle and @beaulemagazine for such a lovely and intimate piece on my crochet and me.
And especially thank you to @damienfcuypers for the adorable illustration - I see myself.

More about my “later on” clothes. Items kept waiting for when I know I will like them. This was my granny’s, worn by my mum, lives in her wardrobe. Every time I come I try to love it but something’s amiss. Next year, next year. #lovedclotheslast

Me + You = better than Me - You. This post of mine (originally a video) is doing the rounds on IG. Reposting part of it in here too. Also: finally this place is alive to the sound of words! Thank you and hello to new followers and new community opening up. Fuck the Billionarses.

“…divert money earmarked for green investment in the UK to the defence industry”. Sometimes anger chokes me.

Our evolution. Our layer on this planet. Our manual dexterity gone rogue: we make too much. What a shame.

Celebrating the kind of aggression that will wipe us and several other creatures off the face of planet earth?

Look!!!!! 😁😁😁 the second question: I am the answer!

The way we buy and care for our clothes is our responsibility, our decision, and we should take it with people and nature in mind.
Our modern day ready-to-waste has an undeniable effect on our planet and other people’s wellbeing, and even if no longer ours, we should share that burden.

All I wanted for xmas ….

It’s that time of the year again, when we are asked to buy and spend without stopping to think.
Resist!
Show your support to the causes and organisations that matter, avoid all brands that disregard the health and wellbeing of our planet and all its creatures.

Billionarses taking over the world. It pains me to say that I thought we were better than this at being people.
