Aaron Zinger's Outlandish Claims never ceases to excite me, bringing me into wild Midrashim, reminding me of the countless stories, structures, and symbols that reverberate from the past into the present. There is something for everyone to learn and enjoy on Outlandish Claims.
Fairytales from Ecotopia is as imaginative as it is deep. By braiding together the delicate strands of myth and dream into a wider portrait of a social-ecologically grounded utopian horizon, their writing lifts away blinders and reminds us of what is truly necessary for a sustainable human (and more-than-human) future.
Cosmoc-Chthonic Carthographies charts pathways through the mystical-ecological landscape of our past, present and future. Sofia brilliantly navigates this landscape, making stops along the way through science, philosophy, spirituality, weaving between the universal and the particular. This is a blog worth following.
rewilding philosophy never fails to help me feel rooted in my place in the world. As a student of philosophy and a philosopher, a practitioner of ecology and an ecologist, as a living being and a human; rewilding philosophy will help you ground yourself in the world, and never cease guiding us towards genuinely healthy living.
Science is something that has long developed in isolated elite communities, driven not by what matters but by what individual scientists are interested in. CALeDNA bucks this trend, working directly with various communities across California to survey biodiversity. Though this blog is currently dormant, I love the work the organization does, and encourage you to subscribe to learn more should they ever return to substack.
