Meri, I met you at #atmosphereconf and I feel like there’s more conversation between us. No pressure.

As #ATmosphereConf draws to a close, this is a good time for me to let folks know that I'm looking for paid work!
I have a strong background in project management in tech, and apparently am decent at event planning too now!
If you need help with a project, let me know!
(reshares appreciated) 💚💜

Next year, we will be even more present, and I’m going to plan something for us to do together!
Thereby making themselves irrelevant to the future of medicine 🤷🏾♀️
This + the AI-ification of biomedicine education underscore the myriad ways in which biomedicine is breaking with humanity.
Public health practitioners & K-3 educators share a problem: their expertise is institutionally undermined.

@caramida.bsky.social Just sent you an email. It may have shown up in the aggressive spam filter our email service employs 🫠
Take care of yourself out there ✨️
Screenshot of a quote post by my main account which is for Black and Indigenous followers Only. See my bio if you need it. The post I'm quoting is by user Gwen Snyder is uncivil whose profile is gwen snyder dot bee sky dot social. Gwen wrote: I am once again begging big account folks and especially media folks to take the five seconds and copy/paste into the alt text field. Come on. It is not a heavy ask. To which I added: This is praxis. Slow down. Why are you rushing? When you rush, what are you actually serving? Is it a good world, better present, or hopeful future? Slow down and enjoy how it feels in your body as you take the steps to fill in that ALT text. Thank you, praying hands emoji in dark brown skintone, beads emoji, and sparkle emoji. My profile is labeled Ethnobotany and Geobiology. Gwen's is labeled she her and they them.
I used the Copy Post Text feature on both posts to make it easier to alt text.
You could just paste that right in the alt text field but I have my own style in there. We just ask that you develop the habit of alt texting.
Thank you.
Oh neat, March 28 is national "Smash Your Amazon Echo Devices With A Hammer" day.
We will see you tomorrow with week 14 of our Hopework series! Taking a one day delay to restore our health. 💙✨️💚
Thank you for this continued labor 📌

I'm not okay sending money that is shared to terrible people.
Susan Kaye Quinn is writing solarpunk @susankayequinn.bsky.social Well this is brilliant! 💚🌱 Details my brain adds: USE WHAT YOU HAVE: repair, reuse, upcycle BORROW: BuyNothing, friends, neighbors SWAP: clothing swaps, seed/tool libraries THRIFT: BuyNothing, craigslist, thrift stores, free stores MAKE: craft, garden, create BUY: local, non-corp, co-op, farm shareThe Buyerarchy of Needs (with apologies to Maslow) by sarah lazarovic Colorful pyramid like Maslow's with the following layers, bottom to top, going from largest to smallest (in quantity): Bottom Use what you have Borrow Swap Thrift Make Buy Top
I'm seeing folks talk about boycotts, and that's fine, but if you want real structural change, start following the buyarchy and shift the way you consume. I've been doing this for years, making more progress all the time.
Start right now building systems of care outside of capitalism.
Powerful #hopework #HopeworkSet13
Deferring this week's originally scheduled work on Creativity and Connectedness to ask you to set aside 15 minutes for each post in this thread to journal about:
A. How did it feel to read the post? What thoughts did you notice?
B. Your answer to each question ✨️

Why I followed my fellow alumni but did not immediately point them at @stemlabels.xyz ?!! Have at it if you haven't already ✨️
🙏🏾📿 Appreciate the reporting. This is solvable and we can work that solving immediately.

You close one door and another opens.
I've made new friends at a local grocer. I garden. We cook together more as a family. We are diving back into family recipes. We are sharing our cooking and baking while enjoying the good stuff from other families and small businesses. It's heartwarming ❤️🔥
Consider organizing a small grocery/mealshare co-op in your community. You have neighbors, students, colleagues, friends who don't have access to bulk foods or cooking from scratch. Pooling resources - a car, a Costco membership, a kitchen - can make a huge difference for everyone in the co-op.
I hope someone picks this project up. It's great for cognitive load balancing:
