firm believe that not everything happens for a reason, sometimes things are just cruel. and they shouldn’t have happened and it’s not supposed to be a lesson because we never deserved such thing.
hm some people in my inbox got really mad at this specifically. nothing you can say will convince me that some of the pain and suffering we go through is our “fate” no, it isn’t

settlers are always so enthusiastic about ''foraging'' and then you'll start talking to them about indigenous horticulture & sustainable harvesting practices and they quickly reveal that they're more interested in the aesthetic of being a Crunchy Woodland Creature than like reducing their reliance on exploitative industrial agriculture or rebuilding their local foodshed
This is not true and it is in fact neither very simple nor very plain to forage sustainably. This kind of flippant "it's such an easy hobby" attitude when it comes to harvesting is exactly *why* there are so many problems with once-abundant traditional foods being depleted. Every plant is different, has different needs, and can support a different intensity of gathering. Foraging isn't just some fun hobby, and shouldn't be treated like one. It is a method of intentionally working land to gather resources meant to sustain oneself, whether those resources be food, medicine, or something else. It requires conscious maintenance of the land you are working, and active monitoring of not just your own gathering, but the gathering of your entire community. It requires experiential, often generational knowledge. You cannot boil a resource-gathering operation down to a simple truism and expect others to be able to do it respectfully and sustainably.
This seems like a take from someone who is looking for fault within people. It’s very likely that they were on step one of a foraging journey and you, in your eagerness to connect, gave them pressure and information overload from someone on step nine or ten of their foraging journey. Let people be new at things and don’t pressure them to go all in too quickly. Sometimes people start with the crunchy woodland creature aesthetic and develops into an indigenous horticulture hyperfixation. But it’s never gonna get there if you try to force it or shame people for being new and inexperienced.
this is a take by an indigenous woman tired of settler foraging destroying the world I live in. don't tone police me with your "let people enjoy things" bullshit. "trying to find fault within people" stfu and go back to self help tiktok.
"Let people be new at things" and the thing they're doing is damaging their local ecosystem and spreading misinformation that will lead to more ecological damage.
This isn't sewing or some other hobby where if you fuck it up its "just a learning experience :)"

I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with relating to characters, “they’re literally me” etc but if that’s the only way you engage with stories you’re kinda missing the whole point of Characters being vehicles through which we can see perspectives outside of our own. and also you’re going to get upset when the Character acts in a way that is not Personally Relatable to You
doubly for shipping. at risk if biting the hand that feeds me, a well written fictional relationship should ideally be more than a didactic template for how to have a nice relationship
do not forget the patron saint of these weeks that we celebrate ourselves proudly and openly in the streets
her name was Marsha P Johnson, and we have her to thank for so much.
remember, the first Pride was a riot, and she was one of the brave souls who endured it to help carve the path which so many of us walk today. she helped found several activist groups regarding LGBT safety and wellbeing. and she was absolutely radiant, too.
thank you, Marsha. we remember you.
my fav calvin n hobbes joke and no one ever puts it anywhere
“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

all the “peer pressure is bad” education we give kids is practically useless because all it cares about is telling them that Drugs Are Evil rather than the much more useful lesson of ‘the person who responds to you saying you don’t drink by telling you they’ll find a way to get you to is also going to be shitty about all your other boundaries’.
god forbid you teach kids that their consent should be respected rather than about the inherent immorality of all the sinful actions of their peers

The mere concept of a resident evil male nude mod is so funny to me. Boy put that boaner away lest a sloppy little critter grabs hold of it
I have lots of opinions about the "Maker" culture of the 2010's but I think the one that comes up the most in my day to day life is how they failed the concept of 3d printing.
3d printing had the potential to change so much about how everyday people interact with stuff. I mean stuff like a technical term, items, things, whatever. The ability to make whatever, rapid prototyping, fabricate spare parts, etc. It could have changed so much. People are used to buying a thing, using it, and replacing it when it breaks. Nobody knows how to do preventative maintenance, and no one knows how to fix anything. If you can make spare parts in your own house in a matter of hours, it puts so much power back in your hands
But a majority of the people who got into 3d printing are also the kind of people to collect Funko Pops and the culture around it became much more focused on gadgetry. Most people's interactions with 3d printing now are fidget toys and those stupid 3d printable dragons you see at every convention. It's mass produced boring plastic slop.
Honestly I think the people closest to using 3d printing to its full potential are the 3d printable firearms enthusiasts. That's the tip of the spear when it comes to putting the power of fabrication back in the hands of people. And of course there's legislators trying to get eyes in every 3d printer to somehow detect if the thing you're making is a gun. Which won't ever work, there will likely always be some way around it, even if it's just building your own printer. It would hamper the more casual hobbyist from getting into it and force anyone participating to be very paranoid about who they talk to about it. But the point of that isn't even guns. I don't think it's any wonder that this stuff is cropping up today, given that 3d printable whistles have been mass produced and distributed to be used against ICE. The point of that kind of legislation is to let the NSA look at what you're making. They don't care about guns, the guns are a cover story to get liberals to vote for it. The ability to near-autonomously print off hundreds of something has the potential for a revolution of thought and action on par with the printing press of the 1400s. They want to know what you're making in case it's something you can use against them. Whistles, guns, whatever.
So yeah the maker culture of the 2010s tarnished the reputation of 3d printing and might have squandered the one chance a culturally redefining technology had before the government locked it down on fidget toys and dragons.
