The Dead are much more well known for their peaceful aesthetic than direct protest music, and many fans associate them with a loving, peaceful, hippie kind of vibe. But there are plenty of artists who are known for at least one major protest song, which, while they have a complicated history, are powerful ways to share ideas and foster movement.

Recently I read that the benefits you can get from "forest bathing" or taking hikes can also be found in your own garden, which I totally believe. Lately if I'm cranky, it's often when I realize I haven't spent time in my garden yet. I go out, do some watering, weeding and, yes, talking or singing, check on my babies and feel so much better. It's almost like magic.
We all know that biodegradable plastic isn't impossible, but it can be complicated as we search for sustainable source materials. Durability is also a concern with plastic that's made to decompose. A student from Australia has designed a strong type of plastic made from shrimp shells!

There's a hole in Turkmenistan that's been on fire for almost five decades. "The Gates of Hell," as it's known, opened when Soviet drills accidentally hit an underground gas chamber, resulting in a fiery pit of death that truly looks like Hades--at least, to some people.
Adult Swim is losing the rights to several beloved shows soon, including Family Guy. Given that this is where many a fan watches the program, it comes as a blow to plenty of viewers.
There are plenty of other places to watch the show, of course, ranging from YouTube and Fox Now to Hulu and Swing. If you have it on DVD, of course you're already ahead of the game.
Will you be bummed about Family Guy exiting Adult Swim? What other shows are leaving that you will miss?
One of the ways we can lift our fellow Black citizens up is offering our support and choosing Black-made goods and services from Black business owners. Etsy is a great place to find Black-owned businesses and support small business owners.
If you need anything from bath and body products to face masks, check out Etsy's Black-owned section. Handmade products are going to be much more unique than anything you buy from a large store and you are supporting the artist directly.
When your sweet tooth hits, there's nothing like something handmade and fresh by a local pastry chef. By supporting local Black-owned bakeries, you're not only eating your dessert but you're keeping your money invested in your neighbors, which is pretty much having your cake, too.
Animal photo competitions are a wonderful way to see some of the best shots of nature taken by photographers throughout the year. Recently in the Forest Preserve District of Will County’s Preserve the Moment photo contest, Crete resident Byron Morgan won with this cool frog photo!
Feminism often leaves Black women (and trans women, and disabled women, among others) behind in the conversation but in reality, there is no feminism unless it's intersectional. As long as any women are oppressed, all women are not free. It's that simple, but many of us don't know how to make sure our feminism is inclusive.
It sounds like the beginning of a terrible sci-fi movie. It's actually been used in a few films. So when people read that monkeys had stolen COVID-19 blood samples from a university campus in India, naturally the world thought it was a joke. Onion or not, it's the type of headline designed to be funny.
It's always nice to celebrate good animal news when we hear it, and the fact that baby sea turtles have returned to the Galapagos Island for the first time in a century is certainly good news!
