My sister trains with a Boot Camp on Bristol Downs but the council want to put up the license fee which could put some out of business. Would be GREAT if you could sign and share a petition to stop this. They’re a really important health benefit. chng.it/mvybffML6j

Is a visible show of support really less important than ‘investment’, though, which literally means fronting money with the expectation of eventually extracting profit? If every United fan paid for their seat but didn’t turn up, would they have done the most important part? Billionaire logic

Jung was not concerned with repairing broken lives to fit into an insane social order, but had to reverse the directions of psychiatry and argue that society was mad and, as such, individual madness is to be expected as a product of a more general madness.~David Tacey

doodle. write poems you never show anyone. make banana bread. take pictures of birds. grow a plant. the goal isn’t to build job skills or “become a creative” it’s to just fool around and experience yourself and the world around you

this is maybe trite at this point but it is in your interest to find ways to create things. basically everyone wants you to be consuming nonstop. making stuff, from cooking to photography or whatever, can help you feel more in control. doesn’t even have to be something you share with other people
