Peacebuilding is an artform crafted by divided peoples | Aeon Essays Conflicts only fully end when the delicate threads of peace have been steadily and quietly woven by ordinary, dedicated folk

what Hutchinson jokingly calls ‘mediation jujitsu’, but listen, curate and facilitate conversations. It raises the uplifting notion that peace is far more egalitarian than war, requiring not expensive arms, but simply the freely available, sometimes suppressed human spirit.

An illustrated image with the words “Sometimes you just gotta trust…” at the top. In the centre is a hand-drawn figure sitting cross-legged, looking thoughtful. A small robin sits beside them and a few autumn leaves float around. Surrounding the figure is a circle of soft blush and neutral shapes, each containing a different word: “yourself,” “the uncertainty,” “the timing,” “your gut,” “the slower pace,” “the pauses,” “the energy,” “the lessons,” “the redirections,” and “the process.” The layout feels gentle and reflective, highlighting the many small things we learn to trust within ourselves.

Learn to trust your voice. Notice the nudges that matter. Become braver with what feels true for you.

Stop Stealing Photos - This wall of shame is dedicated to photographers that feel that it's okay to steal others' work and post it as their own. Oh I'm sorry, it's okay to let their "web designer" do ... This wall of shame is dedicated to photographers that feel that it's okay to steal others' work and post it as their own.

seriously…still happening.

lifting other people's photographs and claiming them as your own…is wrong.

acknowledging other humans work matters…it’s not hard.🤓

Al tramonto, le montagne dell'Appennino Romagnolo ricoperte della prima neve autunnale, risplendono ai raggi dorati del sole che sono riusciti a penetrare attraverso lo strato di nuvole rosate che ricoprono il cielo.

The last two car models you’ve seen on BlueSky is your bird name.

A very foggy day, a utility pole with the usual wires hanging from it on the left. A giant snag a couple of hundred yards behind the pole, but it appears to be closer, with it’s upper branches reaching up to the sun. A more distant tree is almost fogged out on the right ☯️🩶☮️

Photograph of a dune on Gran Canaria, with volcanic mountains in the hazy background. Few plants can survive on the peaks of the dune; there are a few palm trees on the right of the picture.

Tuesday Night at The Shelter

Lea puts down her meager
belongings next to a cot
& looks ‘round at the others
seeking a warming lifeline.

She gets needed food & sleep
under protective eyes of
station staff—some just a few
paydays from needing cots too.
