Being aware of micro plastics in blood brain barrier is a scary indicator of an imbalance. + Plastics in our natural external environments...

Low Earth orbit is filling up. Not just with #satellites, but also with dangerous, tumbling debris. As they collide, they multiply. If we do nothing, satellites will crash, creating chaos on Earth below. Meet the people trying to prevent this disaster. spectrum.ieee.org/kessler-synd...

The thing that is most devastating to me about the ongoing evisceration of the public health infrastructure in the U.S right is how little awareness of what's going on the majority of people in the general public have and the impact this will have on their health and safety.

Despite covering just 0.2% of the sea floor, seagrasses account for an estimated 10% of all the carbon stored by the world’s oceans. They are also able to capture carbon from the atmosphere up to 35X faster than tropical rainforests such as the Amazon.

Feel-good story! No pay wall.
A 'Secret Weapon' for Fighting Climate Change Comes Surging Back
Capturing carbon 35 times faster than the Amazon, seagrasses have faced centuries of decline. Now restoration projects across North America are seeing their meadows quadruple in size.

It’s Indigenous Peoples’ Day in my home. Period.
nytimes.com
Three years after Joe Biden became the first president to formally commemorate Indigenous Peoples’ Day, more than a dozen states and many cities recognize some version of the day either alongside or instead of the federal holiday Columbus Day. Here is what to know.
Indigenous Peoples’ Day, Explained
Many cities and states are observing the day. President Trump has declared himself a supporter of Columbus Day.

Don't forget that your homeless neighbors, the people living in the streets & out of their cars around you that you see every day, are part of your real world community.

If you can you should…

if you can’t don’t block the generosity of others

Giving is how we get through
chantalalive.blacksky.app
If you're comfortable, & you have everything you need taken care of with a little extra, you don't have to give to mutual aid, but why wouldn't you? The hoarding mindset is capitalist. You can easily be part of the community that supports real life vulnerable folks. We're all we got. You gon learn.

Autistic decision-making isn’t just mental.

It’s sensory.

It’s relational.

It’s embodied.

Every option is a whole landscape we feel in our bodies - and sometimes, that’s too much to walk through alone.

We need support.

Trump govt did not reverse these firings out of goodness or self-owning a "mistake." They would have been happy to get away with it. This reversal is the result of strong opposition. We undercut our own power when we give them the credit. Resistance matters. And remaining cuts are still devastating.

Authoritarians will make any excuse to declare martial law, to "postpone" elections, to seize more power than they already have. They don't care if their excuses make no sense or don't reflect the reality of a situation. It is good to call out their lies whenever possible.

yes this is so important to understand from this OP’s POV

It’s important for us to keep educating ourselves on intersectionality within disability

Black & POC disabled folks have a whole other set of barriers than white disabled folks do that we’ll never understand - so we gotta listen to them

DEI was literally introduced cause being marginalized was made illegal, think about that lol.
itsafronomics.bsky.social
lol gentle reminder that DEI is not illegal. Supporting marginalized groups is not illegal. Anyone reneging on support is making a CHOICE to do so.

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

My “don’t worry about China, it will all be fine” shirt has people asking a lot of questions that are already answered by my shirt
A tweet from Donald Trump that reads “Don’t worry about China, it will all be fine! Highly respected President Xi just had a bad moment. He doesn’t want Depression for his country, and neither do I. The U.S.A. wants to help China, not hurt it!!! President DJT”

The reason Mike Johnson is able to keep the House closed and not pass bills to pay the military or fund the government is because Trump is going to circumvent congress and illegally steal that money from other government programs. All to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

Every day that passes I am more convinced of two things:

1) This regime’s attempt to consolidate and hold power is going to collapse in truly spectacular fashion

2) That collapse is going to be astoundingly dangerous and destructive

With tear gas cannisters being thrown by feds like Mardi Gras beads, it's critical to understand that if you want to grab one and throw it back or off to the side, they are hotter than anything you've ever touched. You HAVE to have proper hand and arm protection.

A few hours before troopers started dragging protesters away, another reporter asked if we've seen a lot of feds kneeling on people "like George Floyd."

Told him on any given day in this country, a cop is doing that. That's policing. Of course the feds are, too. This is mundane for them.

Fun fact about the Salvation Army: they use a form of substance use treatment called work therapy. Oh, and by treatment, I mean they have people who have been convicted of drug charges work for their stores & warehouses in exchange for room, board, around a $1 a week, and minimal actual therapy.
