The reason … Continue reading How to Celebrate Earth Day 2025? →

Landro's account of her struggle to survive leukemia is a compelling one, and a worthwhile read for anyone helping a family member deal with their cancer diagnosis. The subtitle is a touch misleading, because, although she does offer resources and ad ...more |

Radical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity from a Consumer Culture
by Shannon Hayes (Goodreads Author) |
|
| The premise is clear and well presented: to heal our culture, we need to turn our attention back to the home. A combination of capitalism, consumerism and feminism have driven men and women into a two-income trap that is good for precisely no one. Th ...more | |

| Thorough and thought-provoking, Worn is essential reading for anyone who wants to dive deep into the history of clothing, the materials we make it with, and the pivotal roles played by politics, science and the exploitation of labor. | |

What does it really mean to be "obsessed"? And is it... okay?? An entertaining and provocative memoir that ultimately posits the theory that contemporary women are not encouraged to revel in their chosen obsessions the way men are. I find her logic bo ...more |

Everything Is Tuberculosis: The History and Persistence of Our Deadliest Infection
by John Green (Goodreads Author) |
|
| If I had any skepticism about the narrative potential for a book about tuberculosis it was immediately erased by page two. John Green never fails to deliver a compelling story and, in this case, he also makes a deeply compelling argument for addressi ...more | |
“As I worked I continued to be a bit terrified in the back of my mind that it would be awful in the end, a big mishmash of nothing in particular, and there I would be, having wasted a whole week of my life destroying things I wanted to keep.
But I should have trusted the long history of women who've come before me making rag rugs from everything that wasn't nailed down because it wasn't like that at all. Instead it was like a big, incredible tapestry that just happened to--if you could decipher it--tell a million little stories from my life. I could look at it and see my old lace slip and the girls' party dresses and my high school rainbow tie-dyes, the Irish kilt and the Halloween clown pants and so many, many other things. It was all in there somewhere.
I felt like the miller's daughter in the fairy tale, the one who stays up all night spinning straw into gold. But who needs yellow metal, anyway? The was way better.”
― Year of No Clutter

“So what do you call something that our body has no need for and that, when we take it in, creates toxic by-products in our bodies resulting in debilitation, disease, and untimely death? Well, doctors call that a poison.”

“I don't think hoarders prefer squalor. Rather, I'd theorize that when yucky things happen, for some the attachment to objects is so strong that they must exist in denial rather than confront the cause: the clutter. The hoard. An overabundance of objects with no proper place to go.”
