as nazis descended on our capital la tormenta descended on our street (i use the spanish "la tormenta" because it's so much more dramatique than the english) la tormenta tormenting street trees grabbing by trunks shaking like a baby discovering banners whipping the big ones the ones someone maybe should have gotten trimmed all those big old limbs away from each other just the way the arborists say they whip away from each other when they finally break until CRASH branch after CRASH branch after CRASH litter yards and streets and bend the hydrangea branches down to the ground but still YOU came out right on schedule floating up from aromatic earth despite still heavy rain despite the wreckage singing in bodily glow to comrades to community to friends to mates, and maybe haters say you’re just trying to get laid but there are nazis descending on the capital and some of y’all are f*****g, sure you’re finding joy in this moment but also some of y’all are hunting luring unsuspecting males with mimicked blinks or maybe you’re just eating dinner raising children making a life building a world amid the ruins so go on little role model let your little light shine

Earth Clouds Are The Best Clouds
Title
Earth Clouds are the Best Clouds: How Cosmic Daydreams Increase Empathy
Description
Seriously, other planets don’t have it so good.
As we anticipate a near future in which human civilization is dispersed among multiple planets, let’s reflect on how great we on Team Earth have it. The biggest thing those suckers on other worlds are missing out on? The mthrfckn WATER CYCLE, yo! We have, like, PUDDLES! And RAIN! And holy crap, OCEANS.
When the settlers of other worlds look up from their new surfaces, there’s one thing they definitely won’t be seeing: CLOUDS. Or, they’ll ALWAYS see clouds, and never the stars! Let’s celebrate our home planet and learn how dreaming about The Great Big Out There makes us better citizens of The Teeny Tiny Right Here.

Tell me your Scientific Animist reading list! (now with more collaboration!)
Scientific Animism is happening. It’s out there.
Let’s build a reference library together.
→ check it out → are.na/scientific-animism (https://www.are.na/scientific-animism)
This is a living resource that we can all create together,
to document the large and growing
mycelium network
growing between all these things that seem
maybe separate
but once you have the label you see
they’re all one organism,
we’re all growing together
we’re growing it together
Let’s trace the contours together
of this emerging philosophy
this spiritual pathway
this hopeful lifeway
this inchoate superstructure
Let’s play.
Let’s have fun (https://www.are.na/scientific-animism).
