The joy of mending lies in its act of persuasion, not protest.

Street Stitching isn’t just about the repairs; it's about showing alternatives to the throw-away culture.

Together, we are building a movement, one stitch at a time.

#StitchItDontDitchIt #ActLocal

Apparently this is quite real. We all need to stop looking away, and act. Even if you live in a progressive state like MA, it's important to contact our representatives to make sure they know we are awake, and we care.

You can call them, you can fax them, you can even go down to city hall and lobby them.

Write to your local city, county and state government officials. It's time to remove links to Twitter from their web pages. They shouldn't be supporting a tool of fascist propaganda.

#Resist #AntiFascist #ActLocal

On days like today it is more important than ever to think global, but act local. Case in point is this amazing story from Scone: https://www.thecourier.co.uk/fp/news/perth-kinross/5165267/scone-siblings-recycling-business-expansion/
We can all make a difference in our own communities, not matter how small.

Looking for hope at the start of the new year. Just created a website and this is one of the first posts. Empires and trees grow and die. Let's plant seeds in the decay.

The Internet is a microcosm of human interaction. Media companies gorge on the competition, growing ever larger. Walmart sends independent retailers into obsolescence in 100 different marketplaces. Megafarms buy vast swaths of land with their supercrops that encroach on the organics, denuding the seed library. #EatLocal #ShopLocal #ActLocal #VoteLocal

Other causes close to my heart are:

My partner and I are also talking about starting a nonprofit to provide technical services to marginalized communities.

Some values we see the org having are:
#collectiveaction
#collectiveownership
#safespaces
#ActLocal
#ShareOurLearnings
#transparentgovernance
#dataprivacy
#nolockin
#righttorepair

This would likely provide hosting, automation, technical assistance and training at first, and possibly branch out into providing video production and streaming services later. / 4

Es ist vollkommen gerechtfertigt, @Senficon für ihre großartige Arbeit zu loben.
Ich möchte aber auch die Gelegenheit nutzen, um an all die hunderte Piraten in Kommunalparlamenten zu denken, die sich da den Arsch aufreißen + für die Bürger da sind. Vielen Dank!

“C’est dans la pratique qu’il faut que l’homme prouve la vérité.” – Karl Marx

l'action est le seul et unique engagement réel, universel... et donc l'outil principal d'une démocratie.

l'échelle locale garantit à chacun la possibilité de faire, de construire, et de transmettre.
