Cancer is a full-time job and requires a lot of daily graft to keep going. If no one is going to tell you, award yourself the recognition you deserve. Repeat every month!

Peatlands are critical ecosystems which contain more carbon than all the world’s forests... despite covering just 3% of the global land surface.
But new research shows that vast areas of the UK’s peatlands, are, due to climate change likely to become unsuitable for peat accumulation.

Peatlands in the UK are suffering from the effects of climate change. We need local and international measures to protect them

Lymph Node Magic for me,
The cording around my neck that caused seizures in December — it ripped off yesterday. Lymphatic drainage is magic.
As a result, a chest frozen to my ribs is unadhering. I had to be careful to support my lymph nodes in my armpits. It’s surreal, uncomfortable, & a big win.

I’m terrible at positive self talk, so sometimes when I’m feeling bad about myself I imagine what my dog would say about me at a dogs-only cocktail party where everyone is standing around talking about their owners, and honestly it’s just the best little life hack

The Dewey Decimal System used to only have two classifications for Black people: 325 (colonization) & 326 (slavery). Each book by a Black person was put into one of these classifications. A book of poetry? Classified as colonization.
