Dandelion News - November 1-7
Like these weekly compilations? Tip me at $kaybarr1735 or check out my Dandelion Doodles on Patreon!
1. Climate Initiatives Fare Well Across the Country Despite National Political Climate
Tumblr media
“[California voters approved] a $10 billion bond measure to boost climate resilience across [the] state[…. Hawai’i] voters cast their ballots in favor of establishing the [climate] resiliency fund, with money for the project coming from existing property tax revenue.“
2. ‘You have to disguise your human form’: how sea eagles are being returned to Severn estuary after 150 years
Tumblr media
“[… To avoid imprinting,] the handlers will wear long robes and feed the young eagles chopped rabbit and other meat with bird hand-puppets. […] Williams hopes that restoring eagles to the top of the food chain in the estuary will create a more balanced, thriving ecosystem.”
3. 10 states voted on pro-abortion referendums. 7 of them passed
Tumblr media
“New York voters overwhelmingly approved the Equal Rights Amendment, adding [… among other characteristics] gender expression, pregnancy, and pregnancy outcomes to anti-discrimination laws. […] In deep-red Missouri and Montana, voters also enshrined abortions protections in their state constitutions.”
4. Giant rats could soon fight illegal wildlife trade by sniffing out elephant tusk and rhino horn
Tumblr media
“”Our study shows that we can train African giant pouched rats to detect illegally trafficked wildlife, even when it has been concealed among other substances[.…] They can easily access tight spaces like cargo in packed shipping containers or be lifted up high to screen the ventilation systems of sealed containers,” Szott explained.”
5. Sarah McBride wins Delaware U.S. House seat, becoming the first out trans member of Congress
Tumblr media
“McBride spearheaded Delaware’s legislation to ban the “gay and trans panic” defense as a state senator [… and] helped to pass paid family and medical leave, gun safety measures, and protections for reproductive rights.”
6. Critically endangered Sumatran elephant calf born in Indonesia
Tumblr media
“Indonesian officials hailed the births and said they showed conservation efforts were essential to prevent the protected species from extinction. […] Sumatran elephants are on the brink of extinction with only about 2,400-2,800 left in the world, according to the World Wide Fund for Nature.”
7. Sin City is Going Green
Tumblr media
“[Hotels there] have conserved 16 billion gallons of water since 2007, thanks to […] replacing grass with desert-friendly landscaping, installing water-efficient taps across all properties, and reusing water at aquariums and in the Bellagio Fountain.”
8. Gray squirrel control: Study shows promise for effective contraceptive delivery system
Tumblr media
“[… T]he feeders have a very high level of species-specificity. […] The bait and monitoring system developed and tested in the study demonstrated that […] “spring was the only season tested where female squirrels were more likely to visit bait feeders than males. Spring coincides with a peak in squirrel breeding and is therefore a good time to deliver a contraceptive."”

Tumblr media
“Approximately 31,000 bison are currently being stewarded by the United States, Canada and Mexico with the goal of conserving the species and their role in the function of native grassland systems, as well as their place in Indigenous culture.”

I am fully acknowledging that X-Men '97 may have flaws. I just can't see them right now because the first episode has healed so much of my Bad Scott Summers Representation trauma I'm sobbing on the inside. And a little on the outside. (That theme song legit made me shed tears.)
I am trying to be cautious, and remember that Ororo, Hank and even Logan didn't have much time to shine (and, boy, do I miss Bobby a lot from the lineup) but... :3 My boy got to be strict and cool and smirk-y and a great leader and vulnerable and respected and approachable and awkward and "No, but have you met my wife" levels of proud of Jean.
I'm just going to sit here and bask for a while.

Sometimes I think about those posts about how people w adhd or autism would be better in a preindustrial (usually western european) lifestyle and they’re always talking about like. Being a shepherd or living alone as a woodworker or some shit and forget 99% of people slept on hay mattresses riddled with mites and insects. “Don’t let the bedbugs bite” was 100% literal my dudes. You want to get poked and bitten all night? While you’re already overstimulated because your socks Feel Wrong tm? Sure it’s quieter and slower paced but my god at what cost.

Finally some progress on the knee, still waiting for worker's comp to approve everything but finally setting up for an exploratory/corrective surgery. If things get moving with some speed I MIGHT be walking again in February. Which means going through the first half of winter five miles south of the Canadian border on crutches. :)

ok because i’m on the train and i just bought some what do you think the best post apocalyptic rugelach filling would be. (if you don’t know what rugelach is, click that wikipedia link, or the truncated version is it’s a filled small pastry originally from jewish communities in poland but now it’s made all over the world and people put all sorts of fillings in them. the filling can be jam, nuts with spices, flavored pastry cream, or even savory fillings. the kind i just bought are chocolate, in case you’re wondering.)

Veles, the Slavic god of Death, Water, and Livestock. Created by the Supreme god: Rod, Veles was seen as the chief god: Perun’s opposite and greatest rival. This is accentuated by the pair’s most popular myth, in which Veles in the form of a dragon steals a prized possession of Perun (typically his cattle, but sometimes either his wife or daughters). Because of this theft, Veles brings the cold seasons upon the world. But Perun chases Veles across the mortal realm, attempting to slay him with his thunderbolts, and when Perun eventually succeeds, the warm seasons return to the world. Veles’ abode: Nav, lies within the roots of the Slavic World tree. Veles guides recently departed souls through the watery realm, with Veles’ throne lying in the center atop a swamp.
Contrary to modern day consensus, Veles as a death god wasn’t believed to be evil. Even in his prominent myth of fighting Perun, he’s sometimes been displayed in a positive light, protecting Farmers and their cattle from Perun’s lightning. This adds to the belief that ancient Slavic spiritualism never had any overtly good or evil spirits, as universal good and evil weren’t a concept in Slavic mythology. It’s because of this that the speculative chernobog is so highly contested, as in a spiritual system where there is no universal good or evil, there could not be a god of said evil. Instead it’s posited that Chernobog was just a reconfigured Veles, much like the belief that Belobog was a reconfigured Perun. Their Dualism doesn’t end there as in the modern day it’s survived in the body of Santa Claus/St. Nick. Like the myth of St.Nick protecting livestock from St.Elias’ thunder, to the concept of Santa and Krampus. Veles’ role connects him with many different deities like the Norse Odin and Loki, to the Gaulish Cernunnos. He’s even sometimes likened to the Wiccan horned god.

Dogs, Kids, and Gender in the Patriot
One of the most grating minor storylines in The Patriot for me is General Cornwallis’s fickle Great Danes Brandon F offers a fascinating reading of these scenes on Youtube]), addressing the ways in which Martin’s control over Cornwallis’s dogs functions as another way for him to emasculate the general. But also, as a dog lover, I find it incredibly stupid. The dogs seem perfectly alright with Cornwallis the first time we see them is in the officers’ tent after the Battle of Camden.  While relishing in Tavington’s embarrassment at his icy reception, Cornwallis is feeding his dogs cold cuts from the table.  They’re not shut away in a kennel, neglected.  There is plenty for both of them (clearly they are having Tavington and Bordon’s shares!), and they show no hesitation at eating the strips of meat directly from the general’s hand.
Contrast that with Martin’s first meeting with the dogs, who are barking their massive heads off after all of their caregivers have just been shot by strangers coming out of the woods.  Martin diffuses this highly stressful situation by snatching a half gnawed bone out of the hands of one of his men and throwing it to the dogs.  One (1) bone for two spoiled officer’s dogs?  What are they going to do with that, idiot? Share? But it isn’t really surprising that Martin would know nothing about dogs. In all the scenes we see of him on his farm early in the movie, there is never a single dog on screen.  Not for hunting, birding, ratting or protecting his livestock.  (Honestly, what kind of South Carolina farmer doesn’t have a dog?  This freak, apparently.)  But none of that matters.  The dogs love Martin.  They obey his every command without hesitation, look to him for approval before they let their former guardian approach them, and even then refuse to let Cornwallis touch them.  Let me also point out that this scene is the first time Martin has interacted with the dogs onscreen since the gnawed bone sharing incident.  I hate it!
What is far more troubling, though, is that almost the exact same thing happens with Martin’s younger children and Charlotte Selton.  The situation Martin throws this woman into should be quite overwhelming.  She is unmarried and childless; for all we know she has never had any children of her own.  Without warning, she becomes the guardian of not only five children, but five traumatized children.  And yet not only do they survive under her care--which is more than Martin can say for the two older boys--but she fixes them for him!  The first time we see the children and their aunt together, she remarks on how much they’ve grown, and Ben replies, “They come from good stock.  On their mother’s side of course.”  In a parallel scene when he visits the family on Gullah Island, he exclaims “what have you been feeding them?” and she replies, “They come from good stock.  On their father’s side.”  This is how they flirt, apparently.
But seriously, what has she been feeding them?  Mood stabilizers in wee fistfuls? There is not a hint that anything bad has ever happened to them. They’ve had their brother murdered in front of them, their house burned down, another house burned down by same people who murdered their brother.  They’ve been brought with their enslaver aunt to a settlement of free Black people (a complication that is certainly never addressed by the movie).  And we’re meant to believe they’re no worse off than they were just before the start of the war? Susan is even better!  Charlotte informs us that she, after spending the first half of the movie mute, has been “speaking for weeks now.”  “Full sentences.  Almost like she had never stopped,” Gabriel reports to his father.  What kind of rich White lady magic does she have that allows her to form a stronger emotional connection with this child than a man who has been a parent for 20+ years?
Unfortunately, rich White lady magic is the only answer we’re given.  As little interaction as Martin has with the dogs, Charlotte has even less with Susan.  As big a deal as Susan speaking is, as obvious as it is that this change is owing to her living with Charlotte (the single positive change in her life), there is not a single moment where Susan speaks to her.
Ultimately, these moments tell us absolutely nothing about dogs or children, both of which require patience and, you know, actual effort to earn their trust. What it does make clear is the story’s lazy reliance on gender essentialism to accomplish what the script does not.  The dogs, which are certainly Martin’s now given that they are trailing behind the wagon as he brings his new wife home at the end of the move, yield to him because, as A Man, he exudes authority.  He need do nothing to earn their respect.  Because Charlotte is A Woman, children just blossom around her like spring flowers, no explanation needed.  If a person is just Gender enough, dogs and children will respond accordingly. This is also why not being in control of his dogs makes Cornwallis an object of ridicule, but that Martin’s daughter does not speak for three years--and still will not speak to him initially after she starts again--is never presented as a failing on his part. Obviously, we can’t expect of A Man what only A Woman can accomplish.
I think Tavington had the right idea. Fire is the only cure.

Learn to be More Self-Sufficient:
Consider this: Living things, like humans, consume food and water to survive. When we can no longer buy what we need to survive, will we revert to savagery, die or peacefully and lawfully raise and gather our own? With each passing day, the world gets crazier and more volatile. In a serious national or global food shortage, where will you get your food when your sources and stockpile have been depleted? When that last "straw" breaks the camel's back, don't be caught unprepared. It is not enough to hoard food and water and supplies. They won't last forever. Applying methods to self-replenish these resources is necessary for anyone serious about emergency planning.
