things that give me hope:

the five mice and counting that i've seen at the amsterdam airport are kinda cute ngl

i'll be visiting #amsterdam for 21hrs (!!!) during a layover, any tips on where to visit? 📝

staying over at someone else's really makes me appreciate my routine, especially the one where i don't wash produce with bleach!?

how inclusive is a human rights activism group that excludes cis men, and only includes "girls, gays and theys"? i understand the need for a "safe space", but such spaces can only be built when everyone learns to coexist... can we ever learn to coexist if we don't engage with those we are "wary" of? i think it is realistic to include the almost other half of the world in conversations of rights and activism, we're all human. exclusion limits our understanding of each other, thus exclusion divides and deters. i saw a video on how countries that fail women fail. imagine if it was the other way around. failing half of the world’s population means slowing progress at twice the normal rate. separating knowledge from people makes no sense... whatever identity, everyone should be invited to conversate on increasing human rights. #seattlestruggles

i bought secondhand a NYT copy released june18, 2023 to read their main story. in it, i encountered a beautifully raw collection of diary entries illustrating the struggles of resistance by iranian women. i encourage anyone to read it, their words are soul-inspiring. @roya ୨୧ @Pegah i thought of y’all too :) <3
