And I think it will be really good.</p><p>2) I want to work in animal assisted education later, but since animal assisted intervention is more of an advanced education I want to get a basic education in education too. My plan is to start both social education and environmental education in the fall. Social education is, I believe, the thing that most people working in animal assisted education have in their curriculum, so it's probably a good thing to have, while environmental education is rather rare, so it might give me an edge for job applications. But mostly I'm just convinced that both will teach me a lot of great skills and knowledge.</p><p>3) I've started taking my dog Platon to work (personal assistance for a woman with MS) and since its going well I think I can take him with me every time in the future and that means I can work more (because my mom can't always take Platon) and might finally get out of the monthly red numbers that I'm in for many years now.</p><p>4) We're also close to getting the house ready to rent out a few rooms for a little side-money.<br>That will be another relief financially, but mostly I hope it will mean I have some cool roommates. And maybe some people who can take Platon sometimes.</p><p>5) I came out of a depression more than a year ago and kept still taking one of the meds, as its supposed to help the brain get used to how the internal chemistry should be. But it really messed with my memory. Now that spring is coming I'm reducing and eventually getting rid of the medication and I can already tell that my memory is getting a bit better again.</p><p>6) I randomly met a friend from school the other day and we started going on walks together regularly and have great talks. That's a kind of friendship I've been missing for a long time.</p><p>7) I'm quite proud of what we accomplished at the :FediverseFoundation: lately. We finished 2024 almost in the black figures, finally created an account (<a href="https://fedi.at/@FediverseFoundation" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">fedi.at/@FediverseFoundation</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>), are regularly posting on our blog (<a href="https://fediverse.foundation/en/blog/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">fediverse.foundation/en/blog/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>) and will launch a Pixelfed server tomorrow (<a href="https://instapix.org" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="">instapix.org</span><span class="invisible"></span></a>).

knizer<p>I implore you - go find some joy and a way to thrive and recharge despite the chaos. </p><p>This resonated: <br>"Here’s my pep talk after studying authoritarianism:</p><p>1). They never truly expect a long-term resistance movement bc they think people are a collection of trauma triggers who are easily controlled thru terror</p><p>2). If they can’t terrorize you 24/7 in your mind, they have already lost the war</p><p>3). The single best way you can resist fascism is to not let them terrorize you constantly. Protect your mental health to ensure you are not constantly in a terrorized state</p><p>4). Keep connecting to who you are at your core. Your values, preferences, ethics, and beliefs. Build up capacity to resist</p><p>5). Remember they are like abusive parents: they only see us extensions of them. They have no clue how powerful joy and community and self-expression can be. We can use this to our advantage — we can be the strong-willed child they never saw coming.</p><p>Spending time connecting to your true self is not selfish in these times — it’s intricately connected to a resistance movement that is tied to honoring our bodies, our communities, and to the land. We have to build capacity to resist by being exactly who we are!"</p><p><a href="https://toot.boston/tags/uspol" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>uspol</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/resist" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>resist</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/fascism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fascism</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/Boston" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Boston</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/boycott" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>boycott</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/MH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MH</span></a> via <a href="https://substack.com/@dlmayfield/note/c-94417388" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">substack.com/@dlmayfield/note/</span><span class="invisible">c-94417388</span></a><br><a href="https://toot.boston/tags/BostonWeekend" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BostonWeekend</span></a> 21/x</p>
