ojalá sepamos sobrellevar la confrontación s i e m p r e 🌱

¿Se acuerdan del eclipse de sol del 30 de abril del 2024?

La idea de que los árboles puedan comunicarse entre sí (intercambiando nutrientes, enviando señales de alerta y compartiendo lo que tienen)me despierta un asombro profundo y una ternura difícil de explicar.

Trabajar menos, trabajar todos, producir lo necesario, redistribuir todo.

De mujer a mujer: construye una vida que no se derrumbe si un hombre se va.

Si el empresario pudiera, te esclavizaría a ti y a toda tu familia.

También recuerda que aunque tu trabajo sea “intelectual” eres clase obrera

Alzheimer hastalarının üçte ikisi kadındır. Bunun nedeni kadınların daha uzun yaşaması değil, östrojenin beyni korumasıdır. Östrojen aniden ortadan kalktığında, beyin kelimenin tam anlamıyla küçülür. 40'lı yaşlardaki beyin sisi "sadece stres" değildir. Bu bir uyarı işaretidir. Ancak hormonlara değinmek yerine, kadınlara antidepresanlarla manipüle ediliyor veya meditasyon yapmaları söyleniyor. 20 yıl sonra ise bir huzurevinde kalıyor ve kendi çocuklarını hatırlayamıyor. Bu "normal yaşlanma" değil, tıbbi ihmaldir. Ve Alzheimer hastalarının çoğu kadın olmasına rağmen, araştırmaların çoğu hala dişi fareler yerine erkek fareler üzerinde yapılıyor. Bu bilim değil, ihmaldir.

amo como una cita con tu amiga a la que amas mucho te puede hacer restablecer tu fé en la humanidad y recargar las ganas de vivir

Anoche hombres armados asesinaron a cuatro mujeres en el Mercadito, en pleno centro de Culiacán. Dos eran madre e hija, las otras dos estaban fuera de una veterinaria, una de ellas, de apariencia mayor, sentada en una silla plástica, tomando el fresco.

Escribo porque me necesito dimensión tangible.

A 9-year-old in India saw two peacocks walking through dawn fog. She ran to her dad, grabbed his camera, knelt on the dirt, and took one photo. It placed at the BBC Wildlife Photographer of the Year, picked from almost 60,000 entries across 117 countries. The photographer is Shreyovi Mehta, who was in fifth grade at the time. The award is run by the Natural History Museum in London, the same museum with the giant whale skeleton hanging in the entrance hall. The competition has been running since 1965. People in the wildlife world call it the Oscars of wildlife photography. Shreyovi placed Runner-Up in the 10-and-Under category and her photo was hung in the Museum's 2024 exhibition. The shot was taken on a misty November morning in 2023 at Keoladeo National Park in Bharatpur, Rajasthan. The park used to be a royal duck-hunting reserve before becoming a UNESCO-protected bird sanctuary in 1985. Around 370 species of birds live there. Shreyovi was walking through the forest with her parents. Two peahens, female peacocks, came into view on a sunlit path under a tunnel of trees. She ran back to her dad, grabbed one of his cameras, dropped to the ground, and shot the picture from a low angle. An antelope walked into the right side of the frame just as she clicked. Look closely and you can see it. Her parents are both wildlife professionals. Her dad, Shivang Mehta, is a photographer; her mom, Kahini, co-founded a wildlife travel company called Nature Wanderers. That made Shreyovi the rare kid whose playground was a national park. Her first time holding a camera was at age 2. By her fourth birthday, she had already been to Kenya for a wildlife safari at Masai Mara. Even with that head start, the bar is brutal. Out of the almost 60,000 entries, the Museum picks 100 to display. Shreyovi was 9. The translated tweet calls her the winner. She actually placed Runner-Up in her age category. The overall 2024 winner was Shane Gross, a Canadian who spent hours snorkelling among lily pads to photograph tadpoles. But Shreyovi was a fifth grader from Faridabad, walking on a dirt path with her dad's camera, and she knew when to crouch.

Pero imaginar me redimensiona (en) el mundo.

pero sobre todo gracias por existir sombras de los árboles bailando con la luz del sol que entra por la ventana

Personas que acontecen como ecos del presente.

No vas tarde, vas al ritmo que los ultra millonarios promueven para poder acumular capital de forma todavía más desmesurada. La culpa por pausar también es una trampa capitalista. Soltemos la culpa, regocijémonos en poder ser, aunque sea a ratos, inútiles para el capitalismo.

Basta ya de la estafa de los "recursos naturales". Esa palabra es el mayor insulto que hemos gritado a la Tierra. Un bosque no es un almacén de madera. Un río no es un suministro de agua. Un animal no es una unidad de biomasa. Son VIDA, y la vida no es un recurso para nadie.

Que nada nos arranque la posibilidad de habitar, cuidar y defender la Tierra.

Hablan de que los jóvenes que mueren o son reclutados en este país es porque “ellos quisieron dinero fácil”. La realidad es que hay un rancho Izaguirre, una Edith y cientos de desaparecidos que salieron a buscar trabajo y eso les costó la vida.

No entiendo por qué lxs usuarios de la vía pública que no usamos automóvil nos estamos peleando por las migajas de espacio público que nos dejan. No cabe duda que la batalla más grande que ganó el neoliberalismo fue la cultural porque no concebimos ciudades sin autos.
