the boys chat is talking rings and swapping jewelry and diamond shape inspo photos and being “one of the boys” has never paid off so much in my life

Taking action and Doing The Right Thing is often difficult, always exhausting, but it is what we must do, together.

I can't stress enough how important it is to make an example here. Take all the money from these companies. Find alternatives.

Vote with your pockets because fundamentally money and power is everything to these insufferable pricks.

getting really tired of people slowly coming to conclusions that loads of people who know how a computer works could have realised a very very long time ago. instead we are sinking obscene amounts of capital into this useless technology with awful side effects

a black and white photograph showing a monolith standing in a field, in front of a dramatic landscape beneath roiling clouds

a black and white photograph showing a small ring of standing stones, within a larger ring of standing stones. in the background is a mountainside, partially shrouded in thick grey cloud, a streak of sunlight striking it part-way up.

a black and white photograph showing the entrance to a stone circle: two monoliths stand about 12 feet apart, framing a vista off into the landscape. in the distance, a valley between two steep hills. the clouds above are dramatic

a black and white photograph showing five small monoliths in a field. there are rugged hills in the background which sortof line up with the the monoliths in the foreground. the clouds above are dark and heavy

I got some really lovely birthday emails. I will reply to each one individually.

Getting letters is the best. Honestly.

Send emails. Send letters. Send thoughts directly from your brain to another.

Email is the future.
