Gregor busking in Regalia

gregor in the meetings with his hood on, socks and slides, slouched with his laptop on the stone table like if he were in lecture. his ass is NOT listening.

Asking Aurora and Luxa for a lift to Ares' cave and Greg pulling out his phone, "This is for you Ares" and plays Dragula by Rob Zombie

Underland tattoos- its free for the warrior

Gregor showing Luxa ramen upgrade hacks

Luxa filming a tiktok saying she has been recently been diagnosed with Alexandria's Genesis

gregor finding a cd player and giving luxa cds (some thrifted, some he burned himself with songs she might like- what would be her mix??)

howard gotta free pen collection like luxa has a free sticker collection

greg has an anime night and someone becomes a fan of the art style with a free notebook, misc pencils, and the unlimited printing for art inspo at gregor's college

all roaches come up to gregor in college, do a little spin as a hello, and then leave. because greg always rescues or stops people from killing the roaches, his roommates tease him. next evening they find roaches doing geometric dances on the way to class and gregor pretends he's controlling them just to fuck with them. roachgod gregor

Despite making this post in August, this post spikes in brief periods throughout the year, depending on when folks like to start.

Reading all the cool costume projects people are working on

While this isn't news to anyone who works in this space, it is useful to have this water-is-wet research to affirm that Indigenous knowledge and land management are extremely effective at storing carbon and protecting biodiversity.

I want to draw special attention to this part of the article:

I get a fair number of asks and comments on my posts expressing sentiments like "human beings are a plague on this Earth", "humans ruin everything, we deserve to be wiped out", "humanity is inherently selfish, evil, and irredeemable".

I don't think the folks saying these things have bad intentions, I know their words come from a place of very understandable pain, fear, and anger. But to act as though humanity's impact on nature is inherently damaging and extractive is to erase thousands of years of Indigenous stewardship of nature. These ecosystems are thriving because there are humans living there.
