There is nothing to celebrate today. If you are one of the lucky few with today off (as I am), take some time to learn why.

There is no pride in genocide.

As the U.S. celebrates Independence Day, we cannot dismiss the continuous acts of injustice against Black and Indigenous people.

"You know, those single-use masks everyone is wearing in the pandemic are made of plastic too,” my friend Imani Barbarin said to me. Imani is a talented disability advocate who often speaks about the intersection of disability and environmentalism. She pointed out that the acceptable use of plastic is always set according to what a healthy person needs to be healthy (think masks, gloves, plastic prescription bottles, kinesiology tape… even home delivery supplements that individually package your daily vitamins), but when it comes to someone with a disability using plastic, everyone wants to shame them for killing the planet. “You need what you need,” she said to me in a gentle but firm voice. She was right."

The images are screenshot of two graphics. The first has a beige background with black text, certain words highlighted in blue, reading: "1. Care Tasks Are Morally Neutral

2. Rest is a Right, Not a Reward.

3. You Deserve Kindness Regardless Of Your Level Of Functioning

4. You Can't Save The Rainforest If You're Depressed

5. Shame Is The Enemy of Functioning

6. Good Enough Is Perfect"

The second image is plain white background with gray text reading:

"Care tasks are morally neutral. The way you do them, how often you do them, whether you can keep up with them or not. It's not a reflection of whether or not you're a good or bad person, whether you're worthy of love, whether you're a success or a failure. They truly are not moral obligations. They're just functional tasks. They serve a function and that function is to care for you. And the only reason to do them is because you're a person that deserves to function and you don't have to do anything to be deserving of function. And regardless of your level of functioning, you do deserve kindness."

I've seen people talk about what course kabru would be in a collage, and Im tired of it. Guys. He'd be an environmental social science major.

The Brooks Range is essential for the Alaska Native peoples who live, hunt, and fish in Northwest Alaska. It's home to the world's only remaining populations of migrating caribou, and dozens of migratory and boreal bird species, from Blackpoll Warblers to Arctic Loons. The Ambler Road proposal puts the Brooks Range and everything within it at risk. If built, this will not be a simple road, but a 211-mile industrial corridor that would threaten North America's largest protected and roadless region, as well as the food security and clean water of Alaska Native Tribes. It will cut through 1,200 river crossings, thousands of acres of wetlands, and migration pathways.

Something I think many people forget is the power of numbers.

The world doesn't need 1 person doing everything perfectly. It needs thousands of people doing what they can, a little better than before.

Do what you can. Don't punish yourself for that which you cannot bear the burden of. Trust that someone else will come by and pick up what you had to leave by the wayside.

“The land and waters are our sustenance and way of life — without them, we have nothing.” Ksi Lisims LNG project and Prince Rupert Gas Transmission (PRGT) line face fierce opposition from local Indigenous populations.

ik mac n cheese is a big comfort food for a lot of people so let me provide you with a quick vegan recipe so you may still enjoy your comfort foods

ingredients: any box of plain pasta, non-dairy cheese, non-dairy butter

1. cook regular pasta

2. melt vegan cheese and vegan butter

3. pour pasta in and mix

tada 🎉

and this will likely be cheaper for you anyway because you'll get more out of it rather than buying those mac n cheese sets, even the vegan ones are scammy. way healthier too!

plain pasta is super cheap and vegan butter/cheese should last you a while since you don’t buy it in single-serve

Dear comrades,

pick the left side that fights for human rights and want nature that lives,

not the capitalists who are destroying us,

who are taking our homes, our healthcare,

who want to enslave us until the last river gets polluted and the last plant destroyed,

until the diversity gets murdered and noone survives their regime

A whisper, a slight sound, something that would show, that you feel the warmth, or the cool breeze. Silence can be tormenting when nothing dominates. Yes, the need to read, hear, or see has taken the day and its needs.

Nestled between the Rio Grande and Santa Fe, the Caja del Rio in New Mexico is an incredible landscape with major cultural and ecological significance. Named after the titular plateau, the resource-rich region has been home to diverse people and wildlife for countless generations.

It's hard to understate the importance of this landscape. It offers cultural and natural resources for many Pueblos—who consider it a sacred place—as well as traditional Hispanic communities. It's also a major wildlife corridor, supporting vulnerable species like western burrowing owls and gray foxes.

But now, the federal government is trying to rapidly force approval of an electrical transmission line that would carve up the Caja. The proposed project would not only erode and fragment the sensitive landscape, but also open the door for further destructive development. We can't afford to lose this precious landscape!

Tell the government you oppose transmission line construction through the Caja!
