Long-term plans are actually really important here.

That all sounds fine. 👏

I’ll have to look that up. Is that like the barter economy? Or more like the *apocalypse economy?

I love this idea.

Hi, may I try an experiment here? (It’s okay, it’s not a real experiment). If you could heal our Planet tomorrow, what would that look like? Be as specific as you’d like. What would you want to unfold, and what or who would benefit? Thanks. ❤️🌸

I’m not even sure how to thank you for this comment. A million stars.

I literally am going to pray that everyone reading this will look up Agroforestry and food forests. It can be done anywhere. Stockbridge School of Agriculture in Massachusetts is starting an Agroforestry farm. Oh, and please buy shade coffee. Again - begging. 🙏

They should have called it his teenager touching habit.

I hate to automatically blame the teacher, though her English doesn’t look that great on the questions. Don’t the head admins screen this stuff beforehand?

I would love to see a Jezebel story on ESPN, CSN (a Connecticut station where, hand to god - being female and wearing sleeves is a fireable offense) and other sports networks reluctantly hiring women and POC then constantly throwing them under the bus and treating them like dogshit.

Thanks for the update - do you all have a good relationship with the islands? Here in the US most of us aren’t really involved in the USVI goings-on. Sadly.

I’m curious how Brits are reacting to reports that May didn’t call enough support for BVI?

I only scanned the article for fear of vomiting. Please, someone tell me that celebrities raised money for hurricane victims. I can’t stomach reading that they “raised money” for the Red Cross. If you really want to help, walk up to a hurricane victim and hand them cash. Can’t get to Florida? No problem - neither can…

Well said because I think the bigger picture here IS about community. Have to avoid apps that harm our neighborhoods and our ability to interact on a human level.

Who is Hurricane Urmur?
