Ver important to counter the fascists tomorrow, so if you are near Belfast please join!!!

The Derry fascists might have cancelled their hideous march, or they just pretend to cancel to avoid counters/ or they will join in with their Belfast fash.

Either way: please join the counter 💚

When northern bogs first started forming following deglaciation, they caused some global warming. However, for the past many thousands of years they have cooled our climate. We need to save bogs and protect peat by keeping it mucky, healthy, and wet.

Tao Te Ching – Verse 8
The supreme good is like water,
which nourishes all things without effort.
It is content with the low places that people disdain.
Thus it is like the Tao.

"If you talk all the time, you will never hear what anybody else has to say, and therefore, all you'll have to talk about is your own conversation.
The same is true for people who think all the time."
