These exist, if you’re into folk dance and traditional music! (Eg pinewoods.org stocktonfolkdancecamp.org and more)
Pinewoods Camp, Inc.Pinewoods Camp is a dance and music camp venue in Plymouth, MA where people of all ages can experience the joys of traditional dance, music, and song.pinewoods.orgMelody SchreiberEvery year that goes by, I'm increasingly convinced that adults need summer camps too
When I was mugged, the police (who were perfectly polite to me) suggested that I use Find My iPhone. My insurance company paid for full replacement value of everything I lost, immediately and without question.
Em, midlyIt’s so funny when people are like “sure you’re an abolitionist now but wait until you’re the victim of a property crime.” Buddy, the most useful thing the police have ever done for property crime is put the form you need to submit to your insurance online.
This thread is AMAZING (headcanon accepted)
madeline odentHappy Friday everyone, as promised, here is my personal theory on this. I think Redwall takes place in our world, after an apocalyptic event of the nuclear variety caused rapid but varied growth of all animals, including humans, leading to our extinction and their mental development. Okay? 🧵

OK but this explains so much about anti-vax thinking to me, because it makes it clear that their objection is: "vaccines are girly."
Fancy Pants 🎩Fauci has never seemed more relatable than this image and now I want to hang out with him. Also vaccines ARE cool.
Also a reminder today that we have a meditation on the Revised Common Lectionary in view of migrant justice every week: episcopal-migration-caucus.ghost.io/mwe/
MWD Lectionary: Proper 13Genesis 32:22–31
This passage from Genesis finds Jacob meeting God on the move. He is returning from the land of his father-in-law Laban with his wives, back to his ancestral home, where his brother ...episcopal-migration-caucus.ghost.ioI am seeing “is prison abolition feasible” discourse today and so I want to contribute that I have tried to answer the question of what we do about violence in an abolitionist future, in my FAQ here: christiansforabolition.org/faq/
FAQBut what about “violent predators”? This is the question we get most often. “What about serial killers? What about murderers? What about rapists and abusers? How do…christiansforabolition.orgMore essential reading! "Detention is an institution of social control," @silkys13.bsky.social reminds us. And "There is so much emphasis on improving conditions when the answer is actually to release people. The best way for people to have good… health is not to be in these institutions"
Puff the Magic HaterIn my latest, I talk with @silkys13.bsky.social about the struggle against ICE. How are the government’s tactics shifting, and how must we respond? We also discuss the tremendous victory of fighting off the warehouse model for the regime’s concentration camps, and where the fight goes from here.
As usual, essential reading from @prisonpolicy.org. Particularly of note is their explanation of how "ICE detention" can't be easily separated from local jails, which are contracting to house immigrant detainees all the time. It's all one, awful, hellish system.
Prison Policy Initiative🚨NEW: Pres. Trump's belligerent use of policing and prosecutions has already left its mark on the federal system. Over the last two years, federal incarceration and detention have grown by 12%, with immigration detention and prosecution being a main driver. 🧵
Great thread (and her Beowulf is the BEST)
Maria Dahvana HeadleyIn truth, if you're not going to piss anyone off, you probably don't have enough passion to do a translation or adaptation of said famous epic. it's totally normal & appropriate to feel passionately about other people's versions of an epic. It's part of the tradition to shout about epics in public.
