On April 16th 2025 the US federal government has proposed to change the interpretation of the endangered species act so that it no longer protects habitat.
This is open for public comment until the end of May 19th. Please comment and make your voice heard.
Wildlife need their habitat. If the ESA redefines harm so that habitat is no longer protected, the implications for wildlife would be catastrophic.

It's summer (in the northern hemisphere) and I'm missing my snowy Ural mountains habitat - so I've decided to put together a list of stuff that I've been using to cope! :D
You can buy this pretty much everywhere online - but I've actually been using a DIY recipe! It's just baking soda + shaving foam but it gives you a nice crumbly texture and is even cool to the touch! :D This YouTube Video includes a couple of recipes that include common household ingredients!
These are self explanatory! As well as being refreshing, they also give you an excuse to nest in fluffy blankets afterwards - which helps if you long for your fur (even in the heat). These can be paired with bath bombs - I've done pine before to invoke forest-y feelings! DIY Bath Bomb recipe
Obviously ice cream is a go-to here, but snow cones, popsicles, and ice cream sandwiches are all excellent! Ice cubes by themselves are also great in a pinch, and frozen fruit is another cheap option (stick it in the freezer overnight and boom homemade frozen snack!). 5 Minute Ice Cream Recipe Video
This really helps if you want to get into a more 'chill' (lol) headspace. I prefer to paint traditionally but digital art is also great! Two Bob Ross tutorials if you'd like them: Snow Fall ❆ Grey Winter
If it's hot outside sometimes all you want to do is lie there and watch videos shot in places with subzero temperatures. You can find these on literally any streaming platform, and here's some youtube links for free documentaries: Frozen Worlds | Our Planet ❆ Mountains | Hostile Planet ❆ Animal Winter Wonderland | BBC Earth ❆ Canada's White Wolves | Real Wild ❆ (And a bonus Winter Ambiance)
UPDATE: i am on hiatus from my socials right now. i still lurk a bit but i can't handle talking/posting online or in fandoms again until i get over everything that happened in my life and online. i have trust issues because of some of my experiences online (abusive and/or predatory people taking advantage of me being naive, along with people not respecting my boundaries when i ask them not to bring up triggering or NSFW subjects while talking to me, etc)
just to clear things up NONE OF MY FRIENDS/MUTUALS ARE INVOLVED IN ANYTHING BAD THAT HAPPENED, i'm not trying to vague post about anyone in particular, im only referring to specific incidents that lead up to me needing to detox from the internet (the people involved probably don't even know i have tumblr so they won't see this)
if you need to reach me for whatever reason i will check discord sometimes but please don't talk to me unless you need something, i cant handle people right now. thank you to everyone who has been kind to me and patient, it means a lot.
Happy Valentine's Day from the king of codependency. :]
