The focus of our March 2nd Grief Retreat stemmed from a poem by @atenaoyadi.bsky.social called Mending. Around a fire we wove w dogwood & on looms, mended clothes, had foods/teas made w care, and reflected on rest & community care. It was such a thoughtful lovely day! Our next one is on June 22nd

I think if you don't want to buy things from major retailers today or any day that is great, and I would also love for everyone to remember that successful movements usually need to involve labor, and to start thinking of yourself as a worker first and a consumer second

We got to look at abeaver lodge up close today. We also got to see several muskrat lodges as well. Beavers are a keystone species because their habitats support so many other species. We love our beavers at Wonderland and yes, we make a lot of inappropriate beaver jokes. 😜🦫❤️

Saw someone say, "End your friendships with people who are going about life like nothing is wrong." I will never understand people who think that further isolating ourselves from everyday people who don't get it is going to save us. It's not. Your judgment and disdain will not save us.

The smell of molasses cookies & lilies. Time spent w/ cats, dogs and very loved humans. Foraging with birds. The feel of cold cheeks and warm thrifted LL Bean sweaters. Hands busy with puzzles. Minds busy cracking jokes. Hearty stews steaming up the kitchen. Planting and plotting for spring.

The barrage is dizzying. They want us disoriented and in despair. To defend ourselves and others, focus is key. Play by play reactions to every harmful act and utterance won’t help you or others. Focus on what you can do (& where you can be most impactful), and remember that you can’t do everything.
