I think #AgentOrange/#Krasnov just jealous about his bosses parades in Moscow!
But maybe we can help him because of our long democratic #traditions!

“Even though we're impacted so much by fire, we're often left out of decision making. So, there's still that real kind of patriarchal, that the parent, the government, will come to help and you just kind of sit there and accept that.”
“Through this partnership, we are ensuring #Indigenous voices are recognized and respected in national conversations about #agriculture and #food. This collaboration with #Canadian Food Focus allows us to highlight the rich #food #traditions and agricultural practices of Indigenous communities across the country.”

> Chaque année, le dernier week-end d’avril, la ville d’Hammamet organise la Fête du #Printemps, un #événement destiné à rassembler habitants, visiteurs et artisans autour des merveilles de la nature renaissante.
@owiecc Apropos #baselineShift: I dream of connecting #climateScience, #ecology, and #culturalHeritage knowledge for communication.
Volunteering in a museum and cultural heritage centre, I once compared the #traditions of a public holiday, old chronicles, and nowadays #climate / #biodiversity change of our region: https://www.cronenburg.net/magic/
This makes the topic tangible for people and shows the deep cuts in the well-known.

"The Right’s ‘Natural’ Meat Obsession Is a Regressive Fantasy" by @sentientmedia
<>
Another component for Kennedy of what constitutes “natural” is taking on things like red food dye, seed oils and ultra-processed foods — while promoting tallow, raw milk and grass-fed beef.

Vegans often are faced with fallacious arguments, and one of the most common is the Naturalistic fallacy.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalistic_fallacy
However, this is often a bad faith disguise. The use of naturalistic fallacies in these contexts, such as the claim that consuming animals is "good" because it's natural, is a disguise for another more insidious fallacy: the traditionalist fallacy or "appeal to tradition".
https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appeal_to_tradition
The traditionalist fallacy is, in this context, the argument that "consuming animals is good because we've done it for thousands of years".
Traditionalism is heavily political, as the people are finding out again in places such as the US. It's sometimes known as "paleoconservatism", and it should be no surprise that the popularity of the "paleo diet" culturally connects to this.
Conservatives, ever since the rise of modernity (end of 'traditional' society, end of monarchism and feudalism) have been trying to reinvent the past through pseudointellectual and pseudoscientific efforts. This has been at the heart of incredible amounts of suffering and horror since then. I have some notes on that on my pinned thread: https://veganism.social/deck/@veganpizza69/110813538364525265
Bullshit & snake oil are not vegan.
We, #Appalachians, love our #holiday #traditions.
While many customs align with broader, modern Valentine’s Day practices, there are unique #Appalachian twists—practical in decades past and still cherished today.

She's in Tokyo, and her local tenmangu shrine (shrine to Tenjin--Michizane in god-mode) is having its uso-kae later this month. She'll take hers along and exchange it! (6/6)
The uso are carved in a stylized manner: a cylinder of wood, with a deep notch in it, then painted with a pattern of the bird's colors. Here's one that one of my Japan-living offspring made:
(5/x)
More from the shrine in Dazaifu:
"The ceremony begins with participants gathering around a large wooden bullfinch in the courtyard. They then circle the bullfinch to rhythmic drumming, chanting "kaemasho kaemasho," passing the small carvings from person to person. The process is repeated a number of times.
After the ceremony ends, you can take one of the wooden birds back home with you for happiness and good fortune in the year ahead." (4/x)
The Japanese word for an untruth is uso--a homonym for the name of the bullfinch (but written with a different character). But Michizane was honest and upright, not a liar! And the birds are his messengers. The shrine to him in Dazaifu says in its English-language page,
"as Sugawara Michizane was esteemed for his sincere, honest nature, the exchange of these wooden carvings symbolizes exchanging your untruths for the blessings of the deity."
