Love my fairy garden 😍

🧚🏻‍♀️🌸🧚🏻🌼🪴

It’s really grown in nicely 💚

Some close-ups of the lovely portulaca and decorations 🌼

An apology to the sweet cherub 👼 decoration that I didn’t realize had fallen off the bench, because normally I’d fix that before taking any pictures 😂🙈

But the cherub is happily relaxing on the bench and enjoying the view in this one 👼🥰

Some adorable decorations I got from Dollar General!

They have a great selection of affordable fairy garden decorations, and I love the design of them ☺️

Hope you enjoyed these photos and this post 🥰

A Bedtime Story

I *knew* that companies have been trying to shift blame for damage to the environment onto regular people's buying habits, but it has still somehow been a shock to research a topic and find the internet totally dominated by the narrative that "consumerism" and the desire to buy more stuff is entirely responsible for pollution and landfill waste, instead of factors such as planned obsolescence.

It's insidious—this widespread idea that average people are too greedy, and that's what fuels climate change and pollution. Not greedy companies.

"Consumers shop for clothes to stay on-trend and throw away perfectly good old clothes." "Consumers only wear clothes a few times before throwing them away." "A huge amount of landfill waste comes from clothing that consumers throw out." "Consumers replace their wardrobes arbitrarily to stay on-trend." "Consumer demand for 'fast fashion' is rising spite of the environmental impacts."

Statements like this make it sound like regular people want to buy and waste vast amounts of resources, and normal people's unchecked addiction to shopping is causing environmental devastation. It's horribly misleading when products are being deliberately designed to break or wear out within one or two years and to be impossible to repair.

Instead of "Americans are buying way more clothes than they did 20 years ago, causing lots of landfill waste!"

Where are the articles entitled "Clothing brands are selling poorly-made clothes that have to be replaced much more often than 20 years ago, causing lots of landfill waste!"

*banging on pots and pans*

THE NEED TO REPLACE ESSENTIAL NECESSITIES MORE OFTEN WHEN THEY ARE DELIBERATELY DESIGNED TO FALL APART OR BREAK QUICKLY IS NOT CONSUMERISM

[headspace-hotel]

*speaking into megaphone*

stop calling it "fashion" and making it sound like a frivolous luxury, people need clothes to live

[the-techie-unicorn]

Very true…and the clothes that do last well and not affordable for plenty of people!
