THE FIRST KĀKĀPŌ CHICK IN 4 YEARS WAS HATCHED ON VALENTINES DAY !!!!
OH MY GOD
welcome to the big crazy world, you!!! oh my goodness, so ugly! so sweet! so so special! thank you to ngāi tahu and DOC for all the ridiculously hard work over the past 30+ years to save kākāpō from the threat of extinction. and of course thank you tīwhiri, who laid the egg, and yasmine, for fostering the egg!
why go to the grocery store or to a restaurant when you can just get food delivered why go to the mall when you can get same day shipping on amazon why go to the library when you have kindle why make art when there’s ai why go to the cinema when you can stay at home and watch netflix. we are in a loneliness epidemic btw
Why did we move the buttons around, tumblr??! This was not needed! Stop trying to fix what isn't broken, you're just making it worse! Especially when I'm already overwhelmed being forced to deal with the fact that I once AGAIN can't have the man at work that I want and now have to let another crush go while dealing with the fact that I'm so wholly unwanted by men I ACTUALLY desire because I refuse to fucking settle for the creeps that want me
The Choctaw-Irish Brotherhood(via)
I love stuff like this. Didn’t a tribe in Africa send America some cows after 9/11? Like this is holy and the most valuable thing we have. We hear your suffering and want to do anything in our power to help
It was not a potato famine. The famine didn’t happen because of the potato yeald failing. Ireland was actually producing more than enough food. However it was almost all land owned by Brittish landowners, who took all of the food out of the country to sell in UK. Potato was what the Irish farmers ate, because it was cheep and could be produced in worst parts of the land, where more profitable food couldn’t be grown. When there were no longer potatos, the decision for the farmers was to either starve and sent the food as rent to the landlords or loose their homes and then starve.
The Brittish goverment was unwilling to do anything for two reasons. First was the laissez-faire capitalistic ideology, that put the rights of property owners to make profits above human lives. Rent freeze was unthinkable and they even were unwilling to do proper relief efforts as free food would lower the cost of food. The second reason was distain for the Irish, and the thought that they were “breeding too much” and the famine was a natural way to trim down the population, aka genocidal reasoning.
This is why it’s important to stress it was not a potato famine. The potato blinght was all over Europe but only in Ireland there was a famine. The reasons behind it had nothing to do with potatos and everything to do with the Brittish.
Apparently what made Choctaw want to offer relief to Irish was the news about the Doolough Tragedy. Hundreds of starving people were gathered for inspection to verify they were entitled to recieve relief. The officials would for *some reason* not do that and instead left to a hunting lodge 19 kilometers away to spend the night and said to the starvqing people they would have to walk there by morning to be inspected. The weather conditions were terrible and many of them died completely needlessly during the walk thoroung day and night.
This apparently reminded the Choctaw of their own very recent (and much more explicit and bigger scale) experiences of ethnic clensing, where they were forcibly relocated. It was basically a death march and thousands of Choctaw died from the terrible conditions also completely needlessly.
In 2015 a memorial named Kindred Spirits was installed in Southern Ireland to commemorate the Chactow donation.
Then in 2020:
Navajo Nation say Irish generosity is the ‘good in all of the bad that is going on’
Choctaw Nation has now added a monument of their own:
A sculpture honoring the relationship between the Choctaw Nation and the people of Ireland will soon be erected on the Choctaw Capitol groun

oh,
oh this is absolutely beautiful
I saw some James Webb Telescope scientists give a talk and one of them said this was her favorite image because she had waited and worked 25 years to see this.
200k notes is insane who the hell are u people
TIL (probably for the second time cos I remember next to nothing from my childhood) that Neptune has rings!?
That's so dope!

Can't stop fixating on Daniel Jackson going from fragile, long-haired, nerd to military beefcake over the course SG1. Like he really went from Milo Thatch to Lietenant Rourke.
Same character.
I know a lot of this was probably just Michael Shanks being sick of playing the resident dweeb and wanting to be a cool, action guy. But, I feel like it makes sense if you step back and consider the character journey.
Go on a trip with the military as the resident archaeologist, fall in love, wife gets kidnapped, essentially join a war effort to get your wife back, wife dies, stay with the war effort for revenge and because it's all you know now. Die a few times. Makes sense that would change a guy.

men talking about feelings and emotions
@enigmatic-mystery-777
I think what I love most about Jack asleep in the chair and Daniel sticking his toe in the water is that the roles could be reversed, and it would still make just as much sense.

a phrase that kinda bothers me when talking about women's historical roles in europe is "cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children." you hear it so often, those exact words in the same order even. and once you learn a little more you realize that the massive gaping hole in that list is fiberwork. im not an expert and have no hard numbers, but i wouldnt be surprised if fiberwork took up nearly as much time as the other three tasks combined, so it's not a trivial omission.
it's not a hot take to say that the mass amnesia about fiberwork is linked to the belittlement of women's work in geneal, but i do think there's a special kind of illusion that is cast by "cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children." you hear that and think "well i cook and clean and take care of children (or i know someone who does) and i have a sense of how much work that is" and you know of course that cooking and cleaning were more laborious before modern technology, but still, you have a ballpark estimate you think, when in fact you are drastically underestimating the work load.
i also think that this just micharacterizes the role of women's work in livelihoods? cooking, cleaning, and taking care of the children are all sisyphean tasks that have to be repeated the next day. these are important, but not the whole picture. when we include all kinds of fiberwork—and other things, such as making candles or soap—women's work looks much more like manufacturing, a sphere we now associate more with men's work. i feel like women's connection to making and craftsmanship is often elided.
Nah pop off queen you hit it.

#this is what the quote "well behaved women rarely make history'" actually means #it's about the fact that things like fiberwork were not and are not seen as important #and are rarely mentioned in historical record #and that this is directly related to the fact that they are considered to be Women's work #it's about the fact that this work which is both an art form in itself and crucial to daily life were not seen as important because women #were the ones expected to do it
