#recycling products

[clonerightsagenda]

Ok genuine and mildly upsetting question, for at least some of the surgeries large portions of the subjects' bodies are being removed and replaced (pretties get new teeth and their fat sucked out, iirc specials get entirely new muscles and bones) and the cities are very eco-conscious with a goal of recycling and not leaving much of a footprint on the planet so...... what are they doing with all that

I can't switch this part of my brain off now.

I was happily watching the trailer for The Heart Killers earlier this evening, not recognising any of the clothes and therefore hopeful that we'll be getting an 'original' costume design...and then I watched today's ep of Kidnap and as soon as I saw the trailer for ep 10 I knew I had just seen this lime green and white striped polo shirt 🤦🏽‍♀️

I got around to doing some soapmaking last night, finally! :)

Made 1 batch of shampoo bars and 1 batch of soap bars.

Rosemary mint shampoo bars. I want to see if I like the hand feel of the smaller bars compared to the donut size.

Made some larger size ones too.

I'll clean them up later once they've cooled and set. I let it go to trace a little too thick because I didn't have the molds set up proper before hand and panicked a bit haha

Almost castile soap bars (olive oil, castor oil) i added in some red mica soap coloring.

As well, Thought I'd share a small update on the shampoo bars themselves,

This is what's currently left of the first batch i made, I quite like it so far and am at this time planning to fully switch permanently. Switching again to bar was a bit weird cause most other shampoo bars have really dried out my hair Within a fairly short time.

This so far hasn't done that. There's still that weird feel between wet to dry, but once dry, hairs nice and soft. Not to snarly and is managable.

I did stop using the conditioner bar, it is nice on occasion but not quite manageable with my hair type. Made my hair brush very very linty and my hair more snarled the day after even with rebrushing and braiding the night before. I did find i liked the conditioner bar a lot for dry cracked winter skin so I suppose that's a win and a future gift idea.

Bonus, I've been able to work on some quilt repair the last couple weeks.

i like to use blue thread and scraps to repair quilts.

Its been a bit challenging doing this by machine, but it has gone by a lot faster than by hand. So for now, I'll keep rolling with it :) after this repair work is done i intend to start binding the next quilt I'm working on.

Thanks for stopping by!

🧼 🌱 Happy Homesteading and Skill working 🌱 🧼

Sometimes, reused and recycled props, sets and assets are just that and nothing more.

We consecrate the gods to the Luxon. So the Luxon can transform the gods truly into mortals. And they can have An End.

"Why are you burning the body?"

"You must burn it. Otherwise it comes back. Yes, we must burn the bodies of the damned. He had met the sentries who guard the great secret. They would have reclaimed him after his death."

Rethinking Our Disposable Culture: How to Spend Wisely and Sustainably in the 21st Century 🌍💚

As we delve deeper into the 21st century, our society stands at a crossroads. The path we've been on—characterized by a growing throwaway culture fueled by increased disposable income—is unsustainable. It's time to consider how we might turn the tide.

The Economics of Disposability

Disposable income has undoubtedly improved living standards for many. Yet, this financial flexibility has also led to an increase in disposable products, fast fashion, and rapidly obsolete technologies. This trend is economically beneficial in the short term but environmentally and socially detrimental in the long run. 📉🌎

Rethinking Consumption

To mitigate the impact of throwaway culture, a shift in consumer mentality is essential:

Value-Based Spending: Align your spending with your values. If sustainability matters to you, support brands that prioritize eco-friendly practices.

Invest in Repairability: Choose products designed for longevity and that can be easily repaired, reducing the need to buy new.

Community Engagement: Get involved in or start local initiatives that promote sustainable living, from community gardens to tool-sharing libraries.

Policy and Change

Policy change can also drive significant shifts. Advocating for regulations that require producers to be responsible for the lifecycle of their products can decrease the volume of waste generated.

By adjusting how we view and utilize our disposable income, we can combat the rise of throwaway culture. It's about creating a future where we value what we own, understand the true cost of disposability, and choose a sustainable path forward. 🌍💚

Each of these posts could be adapted for platforms like WordPress, Medium, and Tumblr, considering the audience's preferences and engagement styles on each. For WordPress and Medium, a more formal and informative tone can be used, while Tumblr allows for a more casual and direct conversation style, incorporating relevant images, gifs, and interactive elements to engage the readers effectively.

upcycling

hey there! glad you’re back. i see you've got an interest in upcycling – it’s a fantastic hobby that’s both creative and eco-friendly.

why upcycling is a great hobby:

environmental impact: upcycling helps reduce waste by transforming old or unused items into something new and useful. it’s a great way to contribute to a more sustainable world.

creativity boost: it allows you to express your creativity and make unique, personalized items. every project is a chance to try something new and innovative.

cost-effective: often, you can use materials you already have at home, making it a budget-friendly hobby.

sense of accomplishment: completing an upcycling project gives you a sense of achievement and pride in creating something with your own hands.

step-by-step guide to start upcycling:

find inspiration: look around your home for items you no longer use or are thinking of throwing away. common items include old clothes, jars, furniture, and cardboard boxes.

plan your project: decide what you want to create. it could be turning an old t-shirt into a tote bag or repurposing a jar as a candle holder.

gather materials and tools: collect all the materials you need for your project. this might include scissors, glue, paint, and any decorative items.

learn basic techniques: familiarize yourself with basic upcycling techniques like sewing, painting, and gluing.

start small: begin with simple projects to build your confidence and skills. as you get more comfortable, you can take on more complex projects.

embrace imperfections: remember, upcycling is about creativity and sustainability, not perfection. enjoy the process and don’t worry if things don’t turn out exactly as planned.

I love how we were all expected to go all in on paper straws, when Hemp plastic is biodegradable. Just one more example of conservative prohibitions holding us back as a species.
