  1. Menjaga Bumi untuk Generasi Mendatang: Tanggung Jawab Bersama dalam Konservasi Lingkungan

    Di era modern yang ditandai dengan perkembangan teknologi dan pertumbuhan ekonomi yang pesat, isu lingkungan menjadi salah satu tantangan terbesar yang dihadapi umat manusia. Perubahan iklim, berkurangnya kawasan hutan, pencemaran udara dan air, serta menurunnya keanekaragaman hayati merupakan dampak nyata dari aktivitas manusia yang kurang memperhatikan keseimbangan alam. Di tengah kondisi tersebut, kesadaran akan pentingnya konservasi lingkungan menjadi semakin relevan. Foto ini […]

  3. 🌍Día Internacional de la Madre Tierra

    Hoy no va de postureo verde ni de promesas bonitas que se olvidan mañana.
    Va de algo mucho más incómodo: reconocer que vivimos como si tuviéramos un planeta de repuesto… y no lo tenemos.

    La Tierra no protesta, no grita, no nos manda audios largos de madrugada.
    Simplemente responde.
    Y cuando responde, lo hace sin filtros: calor que aprieta, estaciones que se desordenan, equilibrio que se rompe sin pedir permiso.

    Cuidarla no es un gesto heroico, es puro sentido común.
    Es apagar lo que no usas, es mirar un poco más allá de tu propia comodidad,
    es entender que todo lo que haces deja huella… aunque no la veas.

    Porque sí, el planeta puede vivir sin nosotros.
    La pregunta incómoda es otra:
    ¿nosotros sabemos vivir sin él?

    How to Donate

    To help us set up thoughtfully, please drop off donations ahead of time (starting 4/20) rather than bringing them the day of the swap.

    You can donate toys ahead of time in two ways:

    Bin outside East Falls Presbyterian Church (by the entrance) @ 3800 Vaux Street, East Falls

    At Rutabaga Toy Library during our open hours, listed here

    We just ask that donations are:
    ✨ Clean
    ✨ In working condition
    ✨ With all important pieces

    Basically, if it’s something you’d be happy to find at a swap, it’s perfect.


    Volunteer & Get Early Access

    We’d love some helping hands to make the swap magical.

    - Friday: Sorting and setting up donated toys
    - Saturday: Welcoming folks, keeping tables tidy, and supporting the flow of the event

    As a thank you, volunteers get early access to shop the swap before doors open."

  6. #BrunswickME Celebrate the outdoors on the big screen in Brunswick this #EarthDay

    #EveningStarCinema will host screenings of "A Peace of Forest" from April 25 to May 1.

    "EveningStar Cinema in Brunswick will celebrate Earth Day with screenings of '#APeaceOfForest,' a new nature #documentary made by Maine filmmakers about the state’s #wildlife.

    "The movie theater will screen the film in the days following Earth Day, which is on April 22. There will be showings on April 25-27 and May 1.

    "Husband-and-wife team Lee Ann and Thomas Mark Szelog shot the entire film within 70 acres of forest in #WhitefieldME, where they live.

    " 'A Peace of Forest' is a compelling, feature-length film, celebrating the beauty and intimacy of wildlife in Maine,' according to a theater news release.

    " 'This one-of-a-kind cinematic adventure showcases surprising, tender and exquisite interactions of wildlife during peaceful moments in Maine’s natural world.'

    "The #Szelogs are award-winning #NaturePhotographers with 60 years of combined experience. They are also the authors of 'Our Point of View: Fourteen Years at a #MaineLighthouse' and “By a Maine River: A Year of Looking Closely.”
    ‘Become reacquainted with nature’s power’."

    " 'A Peace of Forest' premiered in summer 2024 at the #LincolnTheater in Damariscotta. The showings at the EveningStar will be the first in Brunswick.

    "The film is 'a wonderful opportunity for people to become reacquainted with nature’s power,' filmmaker Lee Ann Szelog said in an interview.

    "Lee Ann Szelog described the film as 'quiet and peaceful.' The filmmaking duo relied on natural sounds with minimal narration in order to transport the viewer to a forest in Maine, she said.

    " 'Our hope was to create a feature-length film that people could view as if they were sitting right next to us,' Lee Ann Szelog said.

    "The Szelogs achieved this by setting up photography blinds and waiting for wildlife to appear.

    "The film has been shown at #LocalTheaters all over Maine, including during an event last month at the University of Southern Maine’s Hannaford Hall in Portland.

    " 'Working with these local community theaters has been such an honor,' Lee Ann Szelog said.

    "The #EveningStarCinema in the #TontineMall has been showing films in Brunswick since 1979. Sean Hoessli and Lindie Kuzmich took over ownership of the theater in October 2024."

  7. It's #CupOfTeaSocial #QuizQuestion time! Today is #EarthDay but when I tried to think of a related question #EarthSong by Michael Jackson popped into my head so now you've got this instead. British music awards the BRITs have had their fair share of controversial/comedy moments over the years, including Sam Fox and Mick Fleetwood presenting one of the most shambolic awards shows in history, Madonna falling downstairs, Adele giving James Corden the finger, Robbie Williams challenging Liam Gallagher to a fight and Danbert Nobacon of Chumbawamba throwing a bucket of iced water over the deputy Prime Minister's head.

    This is all nothing though compared to 1996, when a Britpop icon invaded the stage during MJ's performance of Earth Song and wiggled his arse at the TV cameras for a good couple of minutes before being caught. Who was this hero of our times?
