Yes I have seen the Hogwarts legacy discord screenshot and I have a question. Why tf are y’all in Harry Potter discords? Especially for a game that’s openly antisemitic by a person who’s openly a transphobic nazi. There is no reason for you to be supporting HP in any capacity. Why the fuck are people still joining communities built by/for the people who want to hate crime them? Obviously fucking transphobes and nazi just shouldn’t fucking exist and deserve to fucking die miserably but why tf are y’all still involved in their spaces??? And Hogwarts Legacy is a recent game, it does not have the support of you love it because of childhood memories like you might argue for the books. it’s been an openly antisemitic game from the get go with no attempt to disguise any sort of bigotry and released long after we’ve all learned that JKR is a horrible person.

Like can we just fucking stop building more communities for Harry Potter shit??? It doesn’t deserve a fucking platform

Sincerely, a pissed off nonbinary jew

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Senegal, Mauritania, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger, Nigeria, Chad, Sudan, Eritrea, Ethiopia, and Djibouti. Those are the countries. It will be drought-resistant species, mostly acacias. And this is a brilliant idea you have no idea oh my Christ

This will create so many jobs and regenerate so many communities and aaaaaahhhhhhh

it’s already happening, and already having positive effects. this is wonderful, why have i not heard of this before? i’m so happy!

[jenniferrpovey]

Oh yes, acacia trees.

They fix nitrogen and improve soil quality.

And, to make things fun, the species they’re using practices “reverse leaf phenology.” The trees go dormant in the rainy season and then grow their leaves again in the dry season. This means you can plant crops under the trees, in that nitrogen-rich soil, and the trees don’t compete for light because they don’t have any leaves on.

And then in the dry season, you harvest the leaves and feed them to your cows.

Crops grown under acacia trees have better yield than those grown without them. Considerably better.

So, this isn’t just about stopping the advancement of the Sahara - it’s also about improving food security for the entire sub-Saharan belt and possibly reclaiming some of the desert as productive land.

Of course, before the “green revolution,” the farmers knew to plant acacia trees - it’s a traditional practice that they were convinced to abandon in favor of “more reliable” artificial fertilizers (that caused soil degradation, soil erosion, etc).

This is why you listen to the people who, you know, have lived with and on land for centuries.

“lack of empathy doesn’t mean you can’t show compassion,” is a good and important take, but let’s talk about “high empathy doesn’t mean you are compassionate”

I’m highly empathetic. I know that this doesn’t equal compassionate action. Because empathy just means that you feel what other people feel. Being around someone who is in pain is painful when you have high empathy. Others’ distress affects you profoundly.

This doesn’t necessarily translate to a desire to help relieve others’ suffering. High empathy can be prioritizing your own responses to others’ feelings instead of others’ feelings. High empathy can be getting upset and blame-y with people for needing or wanting your support. High empathy can be making others’ hurt all about how hard it is for you to witness it.

Also, having high empathy is exhausting. It means listening and learning about bad and harmful things that are happening burns you out very fast. It means that you can’t function well when surrounded by pain and stress. I’m struggling with it. I’m struggling with it a lot.

High empathy can mean you spend a lot of your life defensive and numb to the needs and issues around you because openness takes such a toll. It can even make it harder to be compassionate, because it can condition you into shutting down when people need your openness.

I know we joke about how we all used to know that One Person who made a big deal about being “empathetic” but were completely self absorbed, but consider: being empathetic and being self absorbed aren’t contradictory characteristics. They possibly were extremely empathetic—they just evaluated the importance of others’ feelings based on how they themselves were affected.

Empathy is nothing without sympathy and compassion. I try to remember this. Being highly empathetic doesn’t make me a good person.
