I don’t think a lot of people really understand that ecosystems in North America were purposefully maintained and altered by Native people.
Like, we used to purposefully set fires in order to clear underbrush in forests, and to inhibit the growth of trees on the prairies. This land hasn’t existed in some primeval state for thousands of years. What Europeans saw when they came here was the result of -work-

OH MY GOD
Mood.
1. Do not worry about gaining weight. Ever. But certainly not now just bc you’re in quarantine.
2. You have permission not to be productive. We are living through a plague and a radical social upheaval. Who tf cares how much you ‘produced’ during this time? No one.
3. Give your day some structure that includes grounding and self care. Be as liberal with this as you can because these are very stressful times and not likely to go away soon.
4. Be kind. Be patient. Be loving. Breathe and give yourself space to feel.
5. Please stop comparing this to video games, zombie franchises or ‘the apocalypse’. First of all those thigns are not real and this is, this is real and happening to people. Second of all those things are made to pretend to be real. They refer to the real world, the real world does not refer to them. Thirdly the effects of this crisis are things that have happened and currently do happen to marginalized communities all over. The difference is now it’s happening to everyone. The ‘apocalypse’ has come to poor people, indigenous people, people in countries victim to imperialism- many times over.
6. Drink water. Sleep well.
