@dragon I've got a full day of using my limited and antique conception of gender to dehumanize people ahead of me tomorrow, going to head to bed in a bit and dream of the comfort of binary absolutes.

This is your periodic reminder that any "ethics research" funded by Gates is funded by the profits of company that helps run concentration camps.

colonialism wiped native knowledge from existence that could have been key in the development of better production practices because they believed they were just naturally better and never thought to consider non white people could do something so complex due to the ideology of white supremacist colonialism. so sure, white boy keep going on about how much white people have given to history

like just read this
"The three crops benefit from each other. The maize provides a structure for the beans to climb, eliminating the need for poles. The beans provide the nitrogen to the soil that the other plants use, and the squash spreads along the ground, blocking the sunlight, helping prevent the establishment of weeds. The squash leaves also act as a "living mulch", creating a microclimate to retain moisture in the soil, and the prickly hairs of the vine deter pests. Corn, beans, and squash contain complex carbohydrates, essential fatty acids and all nine essential amino acids, allowing most Native American tribes to thrive on a plant-based diet"

that's such an amazing and sustainable way to grow things. there's no monoculture stripping the land of nutrients that's susceptible to being wiped out, it's water efficient, it doesn't require pesticides as it's has it's own natural defenses, it doesn't require industrial fertilisation that leads to eutrophication because it has it's own natural fertilisation

amazing how 30,000 years ago in Australia aboriginal peoples had sustainable farming and made the continent into a fucking paradise, and now white people are suddenly like "WOAH you can plant more than one singular crop in one place????"

it can't be overstated just how fucking bad colonialism has been in every aspect of history

does anyone else hate when they try to click something, and just as you do the timeline moves and you click something that you didn't want to click

bluh bluh being poor sucks, it would be nice to keep our phones on, eternal gratitude from me and @glamorshark for anyone who boosts or donates, love y’all 💖

I was just over excitedly rambling to starwall about how amazing precolumbian agriculture was with companion planting, biodiversity of crops to stop disease wiping them out, terraced farming in the Andes with different species bred to grow at different altitudes. white people fucking destroyed so many amazing methods of agriculture with huge monocultues and livestock that ravage an ecosystem in that they eat EVERYTHING and destroy it. Australia was very much the same but even more cool in how unique their agriculture was before white people literally made it into the desert it is now in just 200 years

very excited to share this podcast that sel and i made !!!!! :)
