Fuck. Enough.

One feels powerless. For a year already. You murder people and decimate both culture and nature. You cause irreplaceable damage. You have dug yourself a hole from where it's impossible for you to get out of. But you are still a human who can stop the war and start the healing process.

Would it not be time for you to choose the only correct path - the path of peace?

Finlayson 200th Anniversary Exhibition

At The Museum of Kyoto

Finlayson is the oldest textile brand in Finland. Since the establishment in 1820, they are known for quality and fashionable design and products such as bedding and interior decor textile, in Japan. The history of Finlayson started in Tampere, the second largest city in Finland. The majority of employee was local, furthermore, it became the first company in Finland which hired female workers. They also had exceptional talented designers and they created lovely products which have been illuminating people’s homes and lives in Finland.

Design of North Europe is quite popular in Japan. IKEA is the first place to visit for filling the imagination for new house decoration, and Arabia and Iitala are always true choice for gifts. I guess the simple design in North European design is a common point with Japanese view of value, like Zen. On the other hand, vivid and cheerful color combination in North European design also stimulates interests in Japanese people’s mind which got used to conservative colors in daily life.

After I enjoyed the exhibition, I decided to get this pattern’s duvet cover someday…🥺💛🖤

You can be a girlboss if capitalism deems your skills valuable

Cases like these underline to me how unnatural the gender inequality we face in the modern world is. Today we largely devalue feminine hobbies and activities, including weaving and spinning, because we implicitly associate them with homemaking and being a housewife. But weaving within Palmyra was not only “an economic necessity” both also “carried with it cosmic associations to the roles of powerful female deities” (5). The author notes too, that there is a strong indication of “indigenous Palmyrene wealth,” underlined by local wool and textiles production that existed outside of silk production. Forming a strong basis for their economy, it makes sense that those who had the largest monopoly on silk production would also be those who had the most power within society. If the main source of wealth within a society is something shared mostly amongst women, then of course that society will organize increasingly around them. Ultimately, it seems like gender inequality falls largely on the division of skills conducive to accumulating wealth, and that in the case of Palmyra, traditionally feminine skills came into use.
