Closed tabs September 2025

I’m currently reading Raven Biology of Plants and Always Coming Home (Le Guin). I’m also committing myself to (tree) walks and activities even when no one joins. I’m also taking a mushroom course and going on walks trying to find mushrooms. And also looking for a job that’s fulfilling and purposeful. There are like a million things I can learn and read and do, and then I also have to do the dishes.

To read

• The Light Eaters by Zoë Schlanger
• De toekomst van het stadsbos
• Organizing Life on Earth, on the taxonomy of life.
• Coherent Cooperative Game — The Board Game. I was looking into board games that used a gift economy. I also had these tabs/games open
  • The Field of the Cloth of Gold (2020)
  • Potlatch: A Game About Economics
  • Gùgōng (2018)
• Stedano Mancuso, botanist and author of books such as The Nation of Plants. Working on plant intelligence.
• Joanna Macy, “a scholar of Buddhism, systems thinking and deep ecology. A respected voice in movements for peace, justice, and ecology, she interweaves her scholarship with learnings from six decades of activism.” She also passed away this year.

• Wilde planten herkennen, a free online course by the IVN
• KNNV-paddenstoelenstudiegroep Natuurlijk Delfland, to keep an eye on for excursies I would maybe like to go on in the area.
