#Community & Connection: SPARTA Strength at the Milano Senior Center in #Melrose, MA 💪🏾

📌The Benefits of Moving Together:

✅ Physical & Mental: Regular sessions help reduce the risk of cognitive decline, functional difficulties, and isolation.
✅ #Empowerment: Movement builds the confidence needed to maintain an independent #lifestyle.

At SPARTA Strength, we focus on more than movement — it’s about laughter, connection, and healthy #aging.✨

Living in the country of the "Tricoteuses", the famous knitting women of the French Revolution, I have a soft spot for #craftivism like this: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/29/ice-knitting-protest-immigration

#Handicrafts and #fiberArts are dangerous for authoritarian regimes because they connect and enable people.

‘Rage knitting’ against the machine: the hobbyists putting anti-ICE messages into crafts

Makers take a stand through ‘Melt the ICE’ red knit caps and sparkly nails – all while raising funds for those affected by immigration raids

The bicycle - as it has been since its popularity grew, a tool for empowerment and freedom

https://archive.is/20251204215852/https://www.thetimes.com/uk/transport/article/christmas-appeal-world-bicycle-relief-farmers-poverty-kenya-9t6vg238r

As well as World Bicycle relief, many charities in Europe also support, by collecting, repairing and donating machines that their owners no longer us, including the excellent Just cycle in the Scottish Borders who provide affordable bikes to local people as well as sending them overseas where they are needed.

From the linked article, a woman pushes he bike in Kenya, text reads A bike is more than transport. It puts safety in my own hands’
On the winding roads of rural Kenya, World Bicycle Relief offers a route out of poverty for farmers who would otherwise have to pay for hazardous motorbike trips

Benzy Oyugi began selling vegetables at 18 years old with a pound of start-up cash and a determination to succeed for the child growing in her belly.
For two decades Oyugi, now 40, would wake up before dawn to catch a slow bus to buy the produce and dried fish she sells at her roadside stall in Kakamega county, in Kenya’s rural western highlands. The round trip took hours, there was a risk she could squash her goods in the cramped bus, and the fare would eat into the day’s takings.
“I have been working hard for many years,” she says as she arranges dried fish. “But now the bicycle helps me.”

Bring Back Innovation That Empowers, Rather Than Extracts: The Resonant Computing Manifesto

Everyone’s pissed at the tech industry. And for good reason. The term enshittification is super popular for many valid reasons. Companies that used to provide real value, are now focused on extracting more value from users, rather than improving their products and services. People used to be excited by new innovations. There was a time […]
