Thank you, @gendersauce 🥹🐸 Today, I am giving a 3-hour Reparenting círculo this morning to a group of 30 or so Latine diaspora Spanish-speaking childcare providers and parents and this is the message. Children in colonized cultures are often treated less respectfully because our parents were operating from survival strategies that were adapted from colonial oppression. Their needs were not met, and because of that they could not meet ours. Healing our Inner Niñes is resistance and justice for our lineage.
Beyond grateful that I get to do this work and remind people of their sacredness and their worthiness, as my teachers have taught me to do and to live. (Bring the work to your comunidad 🩷)
“You’re not the exception. When I say all children, you are included. 🐸”

"live every day like it's your last": scary. weirdly foreboding. not a good thought process if you get anxious easily. stressful. so much pressure that it loops back around to making you do nothing.
"live every day like it's your FIRST": everything becomes fascinating. renews the excitement of discovering things for the first time again. makes you feel like exploring stuff. #mywisdom source

we seriously need to stop conceding to the personhood trap when it comes to abortion rights. is a fetus a person? thats a spiritual question. i dont care about the answer. should another person dictate what someone can do with their body? simple answer: no.
Tumblr user petewentzisblack1312:
like if a fetus isnt a person it has no right to my body and if a fetus IS a peson it also has no right to my body because there is no other context in which we are required to put ourselves at risk of physical harm to preserve another persons safety or even life.
you dont have to save someone from drowning even if youre a strong swimmer. even in death youre not required to donate organs and that could save several people. you can kill someone if you truly believe your safety is at risk. we dont mandate preservation of life over autonomy in any of these circumstances.

How did humans survive for the last 100,000's years without vaccines and modern hygiene? It's either a bloody miracle or the human body's immune system is perfectly fine and naturally effective.
Tweet 2/2: Mikel Jollett (@Mikel_Jollett):
The kids died.
That's what happened.
People had more kids because half of them died.
Tumblr user orcboxer:
Global child mortality rates hovered around 40-50% throughout most of human history, right up until the introduction of hygiene and vaccines, both products of medical science. Now the global child mortality rate is 4%. source
