On 23 December Oaxaca’s central square transforms into a glowing open-air gallery filled with sculptures carved from one of the most unlikely art materials…radishes. La Noche de Rábanos (Night of the Radishes) is more than 120 years old, but its origins go back further. m.youtube.com/shorts/-7r2j...

These Scots pines look just like Christmas trees, but their gift isn’t wrapped or waiting below.

It’s nature itself – bringing life to our landscapes through every season.

All we need to offer in return is space to let nature grow wilder.

Wishing you a festive season rooted in renewal.

My therapist and I had a nice conversation about me living a life of a creative and the only thing I really took from it was the need for Universal Basic Income.

There's a lot of stuff out there marketed as

"you're always connected! 🤩"

that people are now realizing is actually

"you cannot disconnect 🥸"

@kennytorrella.bsky.social is the only one covering this very important story!

I know Americans really like to eat meat but allowing the meat industry to contribute to the ruin of miracle antibiotics really strikes me as an irrational trade.
At the end of each year, FDA releases data on antibiotics sold for use in livestock.

It usually changes a few %. This year, it went up 15.8%.

I was shocked & emailed experts/industry groups. Likeliest explanation per a source: industry is not "being good stewards of antibiotics"

Thanksgiving: A story of celebration and pain, in maps
It's a day to give thanks. But for millions of Indigenous Americans, it also serves as a reminder of loss.

Good reading from @rebeccanagle.bsky.social. A moving reflection on how we got to where we are, what it cost and still costs, to create memories that are comfortable for some. As a newly-minted citizen I’ll take this as my Thanksgiving meditation. 🦃

If you’re a settler on these lands like I am, one small way to be a good guest is by giving to trusted Native organizations on Thankstaking! Here’s where I’m donating this year: Tribal Elder Box Food Program, led by Loka’s advisors, Gary Besaw & Dan Cornelius! 🙏🏽 feedingamericawi.org/tribal-food-...
