I agree, I’m just not sure how they’d go about it.

There’s so many options they could take.

for several years of my life i assumed (and was told by adults) the severe pain from the muscular compensation chain caused by my bilateral limb difference was just from carrying my schoolbag around all day. and like yeah, we should talk about the obvious medical negligence there and dismissal of disabled experiences by healthcare providers but can we also talk about how fucking terribly we treat 11-15 year olds? the fact that you have to carry around a bag half your weight (and punished for bringing the wrong books or equipment) for 8+ hours a day, and it's normalised that that often results in chronic back pain or injury? waking up at 7am and getting home at 5pm just to do another 2+ hours of unpaid work? i'm 21 now and i haven't forgotten how bad it was

This comment was left on a post about making the most of the Libby app. "Excessive use of generous lending policies" is the most absurd phrase I've ever seen anyone use to discuss libraries.

I’ve started using chewing sticks to brush my teeth and tbh I’m surprised that zero waste people aren’t all over these things.

Chewing sticks are basically sticks from specific trees that you strip some of the bark off, chew to loosen up the inner fibers, and then brush your teeth with said fibers. You cut off the fibers every other day and strip off more bark so the sticks also force you to keep replacing your toothbrush a bit better than normal ones do because you’re literally whittling them down to nothing over time.

No toothpaste required because the sticks naturally have fluoride in them and being, you know, sticks, they’re biodegradable by nature. So no plastic from the toothpaste because there is no toothpaste and no plastic from the stick because it’s a stick.

Some brands sell them wrapped in plastic but you know, not all of them do that. And you can get a reusable container to put them in when you’re not using them.

But because zero waste people are super into finding complicated ways to reduce plastic usage I was surprised I’ve never heard of these things being discussed in the zero waste YouTube channels I’ve watched. They talk about like bamboo toothbrushes and refillable toothpaste and whatnot. Not chewing sticks.

I’m using them because I can just keep one in my pocket in its little container and they’re super stiff and my gums need strengthening according to my hygienist. (Note if you decide to use these things your gums might bleed the first few times because the fibers are so stiff)

I’m not really using them for environmental reasons but they seem like the sort of thing that extreme tree huggers would like. But no, the only people using chewing sticks seem to be me and people trying to make sure they don’t accidentally swallow toothpaste during Ramadan.

Being unconscious is so good. Literally one of the most healing things you can do. But only when you do it on purpose. Being rendered unconscious is usually pretty bad for you.

So, you know, watch out for that.

the replacement of websites with apps sounds so backwards when you actually describe it. like hmm you have to download an entire program onto your device each time you want access to a portal, where it takes up storage indefinitely. somebody should invent an app where you can "browse" any portal just by typing in its address... 🥴

everybody talking about the lack of spaces where kids and teenagers can just "hang out" is really coming together with all my thoughts on ecology, lawns, and the way land is used

Many outdoor spaces are not functional for human life. Concrete and no trees makes the world hostile for humans the same way it does other creatures.

Suburbs where every house has a lawn that is basically decoration cause the houses to be spaced far apart, which makes walking very difficult...

The harder to exist in the outside becomes, the more people become focused on the virtual world, which causes the outside to become treated as less important, and people have less ability to imagine an outdoor space that is nice to exist in

The trouble ultimately is that the earth's surface already exists and is free. Simply being in a certain position in three-dimensional space is something that you inherently can do as long as you can walk there, unless someone stops you.

But our system is that a person has to pay someone money for every aspect of existence, in both space and time, even though space and time are both inherent qualities of the fabric of the universe.

So, spaces that someone can exist in for free are kept hostile to human life
