Enron existed for longer than the confederacy.

Club Penguin outlived the confederacy

Chinese researchers sprayed cyanobacteria onto desert sand and turned it into stable soil in just 10 months. Cyanobacteria oozes sticky sugars that glue loose grains of sand into a crust that’s tough enough to cut wind erosion and trap water — and then those bacteria photosynthesize, leaving behind organic matter, and pull nitrogen from the air, converting it into fertilizer. Drop seeds into the soil 10-16 months later and they’re very happy. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/science/chinese-researchers-turn-desert-sand-into-fertile-soil-in-just-10-months-using-cyanobacteria/articleshow/130391558.cms

New on From The Periphery dot com: our transcript of a recent episode of From The Periphery Podcast (FTPP) with guests Juls and Alaa of The Peoples Want internationalist network.

FTPers @leilashami and israa' talked to their TPW comrades about internationalism from below, their journeys that led them to The Peoples Want gatherings, and what the relationships they are building in that space mean to them.

Get melon-streamed, nerds!

This is my favorite gif in the whole world and I can't explain why...

Racists ain't the only ones with #MutualAid posts.

Between shitty Internet providers (FUCK SPECTRUM!) and everything just being Expensive, shit sucks.

Also dansup still hasn't put his money where his mouth is re: mutual aid (now that's a deep cut as I continue to bring up Old Shit!).

Pettiness aside... I also do stuff like Queer City Blackfolx so Black Q/Ts can have a safer space to just exist. To round out there's also Our Favorite Void webring and my blog, Raintree Ruckus. If you dig what I'm doin', a tip/love gift/beer money helps a lot!

Help me keep my head above water and the website lights on!

Aw damn it, I accidentally stepped on a blobcat on my way to the store. They seem to be okay but they're are stuck on the bottom of my shoe. Does anyone have any tips on how to remove them safely?
