The Bright Side

As conservation burial sites multiply, this movement challenges the funeral industry's environmental footprint.

The Campbells' vision? To restore and rewild a million acres through conservation burials - reconnecting us with death, one burial at a time.

Want american Democrats to ACTUALLY DO something already?

Consider Direct Action instead!
But as well as that, we *do* need a non-corrupt (yet! there's always time, ofc) replacement party that is ACTUALLY left-wing.

Tea Party and MAGA supporters did it. Don't follow their strategies completely, but DO LEARN FROM them. We All deserve better, even the Leopards Eating People's Faces party.

How many of them would have supported having their faces eaten if they KNEW it wasn't hyperbole or something?
Or if they took time to imagine and plan for the risks: their or loved ones' faces being eaten by leopards?

Mass U.S. #Labor #Strike -Sign Up

generalstrikeus.com/aboutus

There is a growing #movement calling on #Americans from every walk of life to join forces for a mass #generalstrike. This isn’t just about one group or one issue—it’s about #uniting as a #nation to #demand the #change we deserve.

Our #goal is bold yet achievable: we aim to gather 11 million pledgees—representing 3.5% of the U.S. population—to refuse to #work until our collective demands are met. Why 11 million?

The General StrikeWho Are We? — The General StrikeThe General strike organization is dedicated to creating real change by striking against The System. This country still does not work on behalf of its people. By striking we deny the corporations their greatest power - IT's labour.

Meet the stand-in "#dad" who made sure 1,000 #LGBTQ+ #people had a "parent" at their #weddings

In 2021, #DanielBlevins posted a #TikTok #video which sparked his #global #movement.

NewsflareMeet the "dad" who made sure 1,000 LGBTQ+ people had "stand-in parent" at weddingsMeet the "dad" who has ensured more than 1,000 LGBTQ+ people have had a "stand-in parent" to stand by their side during important life milestones." In 2021, Daniel Blevins posted a TikTok video which sparked his global movement. Inspired by his upbringing in rural East Tennessee — where he said LGBTQ+ representation was nonexistent — the 48-year-old offered to be a "stand-in dad" for LGBTQ+ people whose families wouldn't attend their weddings. " "I was always looking for ways to be the representation I didn't have growing up," Daniel, a hair salon owner and founder of the nonprofit organization Stand in Pride, shared. " "I was also inspired by Sarah Cunningham, the founder of Free Mom Hugs, who offered to do something similar as a mom for LGBTQ+ weddings." The idea quickly struck a chord. "The video got some traction," the Oneida, Tennessee native recalled. " "A lot of people in the comments said, ‘I would love to do this.' Others said, ‘I'm not getting married, but I would love to have a parental figure in my chosen family.'" " Recognizing a need for connection beyond TikTok comments, Daniel created a private Facebook group in February 2021. "It quickly grew. We currently have 26 Facebook groups and well over 300,000 members around the world. " "And we just launched our very own app, so now we're transitioning from Facebook to our own platform." Through Stand in Pride, people offering support can post about themselves, their interests, or their families, while those seeking support can connect privately. To date more than 1,000 people have acted as stand in parents for people who didn't have a mom or dad to stand by their side, during important life moments. "It works both ways," Daniel explained. "Someone offering support might post, and someone looking for a connection could reach out — or vice versa. " "It could be as simple as saying, ‘I'm here, I'm looking for this.' Then a conversation starts." For Daniel, being a stand-in dad is more than a symbolic gesture. He's personally stood in at two weddings and been a "virtual dad" for countless others when they need me." "I flew to California last summer for one and drove two hours in Tennessee for another. But the support goes far beyond weddings," he said. " Although he has "no way of knowing" how many stand-in moms and dads Stand in Pride has provided because "those connections happen privately," the benefits of his organization have been apparent." One story that stood out early on involved a young trans man preparing for a job interview. "He couldn't tie a tie, so some dads jumped on FaceTime and taught him. " "We've had parents help with buying homes or cars, sharing recipes, and even just texting or FaceTiming to check in. " "It doesn't always have to be in person — it's about showing up however you can." Stand in Pride has had an immeasurable impact. "I've had people tell me, ‘Thanks to this group, I'm still here.' It saved my life," Daniel shared." "I never imagined a small gesture could turn into something like this." " The group has even played a role in helping members escape dangerous situations. "We've had members rescued from domestic violence and homelessness. Those are their stories to tell, but I can tell you they happened." For Daniel, it's all about the small acts of kindness that build meaningful connections. "A lot of us take having affirming families for granted," he said. " "For so many, it's the difference between feeling alone and knowing someone has your back. A small gesture can truly change someone's life." Today, Daniel continues to grow Stand in Pride, working tirelessly to make sure no LGBTQ+ person feels unsupported. "The feedback has been amazing," he said. "What started as a simple idea has become a global community of love, acceptance, and support."

#Somatic #Dance: Liberation Through Expression and #Movement

This technique aims to help you reconnect with your body and gain self-confidence. Rather than focusing on your appearance, you should focus on what you feel during the dance."...

Gosh, its 25 years that the #Seattle #Protests , the #BattleofSeattle happened…

The birth of a new wave of a #global #movement called #antiglobalisation

That went on in #Prague 2000 until the meetings had to move to remote places to be guarded by armies from the people they decide for…

It hit me like a rock that it is already a quarter decade. And made me write a short article: katika-kuehnreich.com/en/2024/

@CrimethInc did a post on it

29 Nov99-Seattle,WA: Five activists from the Rainforest Action Network climbed a giant crane and unfurled a 2000 square foot banner just before dawn today, protesting the World Trade Organization’s anti-democratic policies. The action marked the first day of the WTO ministerial meetings. “Using a celluar phone to talk to the press while hanging from the crane, climber John Sellers said: “The WTO is a threat to democracy and our hard-one environmental, labor, health and safety laws and must be abolished.” The activists remained high over the Seattle skyline until just past noon when they voluntarily surrendered to the Seattle police. All five climbers plus one support person were arrested.

Kann #Cannabis oder umgangssprachlich #Hanf ein kleiner Baustein sein, um das #Klimakippen zu verlangsamen? Und ihr wisst ja was mit einer Tasse oder einem Glas passiert, wenn es über den Kipppunkt [Tischrand] dann schlagartig fällt 😭

The metal framework above represents the prevalence of urban life, while the person below walks with a sense of purpose. I aimed to capture a moment in a bustling city, where human life interacts with industrial structures, creating a narrative of daily routine against a backdrop of resilience.

The image shows a person walking along a paved surface beneath an elevated structure. The person's casual clothing contrasts with the industrial surroundings, which include rusty metal beams and a concrete wall. An area of yellow paint on the ground and some vegetation suggest the presence of nature despite the urban setting.

Farbe oder s/w?

Was eigentlich eigentlich als Flüchtigkeitsfehler begann, hat sich für mich als interessant entpuppt (und ist natürlich nicht reproduzierbar).
Ich kann mich nur mal wieder nicht entscheiden: Farbe oder Nichtfarbe?

Im Übrigen darf das Foto auch als nichtleuchtendes Vorbild für die Radfahrer gelten.

Nachts, leicht beleuchtete Straße. Ein Auto mit Bewegungsunschärfe auf der Straße, davor ein schwarzer Radfahrer mit Minilicht, auch in Bewegung. Foto in Farbe.
