“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

Things to consider:

Document the violence & violations--on camera, w/photos, saving images--any way you can. Speaking as a historian- it will matter

Point out violations--w/images & text--even if you think it won't matter. It will. It needs to be called out & exposed

You are a witness.
Expose it.

In a world full of mirrors, we often measure ourselves against reflections that aren’t ours. But beauty isn’t found in comparison. It’s in the flower that blooms without asking if another is taller, in the ocean that doesn’t compete with the sky. 🌿 #RealBeauty

Screen time causing disconnection? Why not use it to reconnect with nature?

Phones and other tech can enhance teens’ connection to nature

It is not realistic to suggest that the answer to modern difficulties lies in restricting technology or framing time outdoors as a replacement.

What is the most likely outcome here?

Environmental groups are 'cautiously optimistic' about judge's 'Alligator Alcatraz' ruling

The injunction is expected to stay in place while the lawsuit challenging the detention center is heard, according to the ruling.

Great points. It’s not that “normalized” nudity wouldn’t be great!, it’s just not realistic in most parts of the world.

I’ve been struggling with finding consensual spaces closer to home, and have found that I may have to build them if I want them.

Non-landed clubs are a good starting point.

Yes! Spot on.

It’s way too easy to get caught up in the hype of the naturist non-judgemental space. It’s just different judgement.

And speaking of judgement! While I enjoy the pictures of Corin, my wife would appreciate more of Kevin, to balance it out a bit.

Agreed, Denny Blaine beach in Seattle is in jeopardy of losing its long fought status due to those that continue to push the boundaries and give those who want to shut it down a reason. It’s not legal, there are laws against lewd behavior, but this is the ammunition used to try and shut it down.

Thank you for this discussion. Great article as usual.

One question I have is where do you feel this discussion is most applicable? Where do you see the most pushback on naturist values?

This is an issue online for sure, but naturist clubs have rules that must be followed. Public spaces too.
