Also:

* Growing almonds for almond milk damages ecosystems and uses a *lot* of water. 80% of the world's almonds come from California, where severe droughts can be a problem

* Soy farming drives deforestation in South America. Tofu can have twice the carbon footprint of chicken

* Fish populations are dynamic. Sustainable fishing leaves land open for reforestation

* Bioplastics are not necessarily better than recyclable plastics like PET

* Industrial cooking is more efficient than home cooking. Tinned tomatoes, chick peas, etc can be a good option

* Cling film is plastic, and plastic is not good. But if you use it carefully, you can prevent food waste, which is worse. Beeswax wrapping is ideal

* Leather can last over a decade, and is biodegradable. Fake leather is made from short lived plastic

* Cotton production is energy intensive. A cotton bag needs to be used 149 times to be more carbon efficient than plastic. Get a good one. Use it often

@velexiraptor @Aleums my wildest thought is that the moon landing is fake conspiracy and flat earth conspiracy were also started and seeded into the populace by the CIA in a wide-reaching plan to discredit people actually naysaying government info

this less of a specific artist & more of a tragically unheard of digital watercolor program called Expresii (expresii.com)

it was originally developed for calligraphy, over the years it's been exanded to be just the BEST digital watercolor app/program there currently is on the market

cons are: it's Windows only, and it because it was made in Japanese first, the translated English menu might be confusing

the pros? endless!! AND IT'S GOSH DARN BEAUTIFUL!!!

if she's ur jackdaw how come she's on my big sphinx of quartz

believe the priorities tell you with their actions, not the ones they tell you with their words

Dang, I guess Ed was right this whole time

Apple's hardware aesthetics have an almost terraforming effect: the sleek MacBook makes the rest of your desk look cluttered and irregular, their stores feel like alien temples you must assimilate into the customs of. I would like technology to feel more like going down to a local co-op hardware store where a lesbian sells you a hammer you will own for 30 years.

wow I had no idea that arctic birds were all communists. they even have a common tern
