Now streaming: some hot takes from your solarpunk aunties. Ariel and Christina consider why wallowing in negative feelings is just so delicious ... as opposed to wallowing in, you know, acts of kindness and feelings of compassion, which are just a bit more solarpunk. We live in an age of outrage, it seems: cancelling, social media mobbing, cyberbullying ... but also drawing attention to human rights violations, or dodgy political happenings, or just straight-up illegal goings-on! How can we tell whether our outrage is justified or not? How can we avoid emotional manipulation? Can we think of outrage as a solarpunk tool?

ANGER . I have been told my whole life that I am too aggressive, too much for people to handle. . Society loves to teach men and women alike that feminine anger is something unseemly, something to be hidden. . The thing is though, there is righteous anger. There is anger that is useful. . So often society would rather see women sad than angry. I’m calling bullshit. . There are things in this world that should make us angry. There are things in this world worth standing up for...passionately. . Anger is also a really useful clue as to what you’re feeling. It’s a clue for when boundaries are crossed. It’s a clue for when something is wrong. . Anger calls forward the part of us that stands up for ourselves. I’m not saying we should all run around screaming all the time, there is also such a thing as unprocessed rage. . What I am saying is women shouldn’t be afraid to be angry. We shouldn’t be afraid to stand up for what’s right. We shouldnt be afraid to protect ourselves, our boundaries and our people. . . #righteousanger #angerisanenergy #emotions #emotionsmatter #divinefemininerising #divine #divinefeminineenergy #divinefeminine #divinemasculine #energyiseverything #energy #energyhealing #energyhealing #feelingsad #growthroughlife #growthmindset🌱 #wildwomansisterhood #wildwomanrising https://www.instagram.com/p/CDfF7CejEza/?igshid=15wfasuvuolvf

“Militant” by Langston Hughes Hughes was quite the socialist revolutionary but we didn’t talk about that in school-we talked of his calmer, prettier poems about rivers and mothers and dreams and those are important poems! But I feel cheated that I wasn’t also introduced to his more violent and angry poems. Both are important. It seems it is ok to express longing and sadness and disappointment but not of action and anger. In reality I am a physically nonviolent person but I do want to cause violence to white supremacy and capitalism and heteronormativity and sexism and ableism. It is good to feel and express and act on anger, anger tempered with love is righteous anger and it is how we change towards something better. Hughes was also gay and of course, that was left out too. Let us celebrate black lgbtq people this pride. My sexuality and my anger and my creative love is a part of my recovery. #langstonhughes #anger #poetryheals #writingheals #righteousanger #artheals #bethechange #blacklivesmatter #poorlivesmatter #disabledlivesmatter #queerlivesmatter #allmustchange #changeordie #poetrymovesmountains #loveheals #liberationtheology #alifeworthliving #hopeisreal #recovery #pressforward #expressyouranger #transformation #comealive #recovery #expressyourself #poetry #harlemrenaissance #pride #lgbtq #blackqueerpride #sexuality https://www.instagram.com/p/CB_MrbQl3Qf/?igshid=b8xsvzclx5mz

Father @jamesmartinsj provides #wisdom to us regularly. #righteousanger about the #stunt #trump pulled by #gassing #peaceful #protesters so he could have a #photoop in front of a #church holding a #Bible. He almost never goes to #church and should #open the Bible up to see the #teachings run #contrary to everything he is as a #person. Yet #maga #evangelicals continue to support the #amoral, #despicable man. #religion is not a #political #toolx. #god is not your #plaything. https://www.instagram.com/p/CA-LcNIAJse/?igshid=n1h8xvtduk71
