I have to make a social skills phone call later night. I know it'll probably be fine, but it's super stressful. The anticipation and waiting is the hardest part. Even though I've done this class nearly 6-7 times now, but there's always that bit of anticipation and anxiety that creeps in as I approach the call. The call always goes fine. But it's still awful to sit and wait, because that allows my brain to panic and overthink. I hate the feeling of anticipation, but I still know I'll almost definitely be fine.

"hey why are all the barrier garments like linen shirts or chemises or combinations going away?"

"oh we have more washable fabrics now! you don't need to worry about sweat reaching your outer clothing when you can just chuck it in the washing machine!"

"cool!"

"so uh all of those new washable fabrics are leaching microplastics into our water, and the constant machine-washing wears garments out faster. they're also not really sturdy enough to be mended, so we keep having to throw them out and now the planet is covered in plastic fabric waste that will never break down. also it turns out that the new washable fabrics hold odor-causing bacteria VERY well. so could we get those barrier garments back please?"

"sorry babe linen now costs $100000/yard and since it's been so long without them, nobody knows how to adapt barrier garments to the current styles anyway"

"..."

"maybe try this new $50 undershirt made of Special Sweat-Wicking Plastic Fabric! :) :) :)"

Sustainable Stitching: Flat Embroidery Digitizing Redefining Fashion's Future

In an era where sustainability is increasingly becoming a focal point in the fashion industry, flat embroidery digitizing has emerged as a powerful tool for redefining the future of fashion. By combining the precision and versatility of digitization with a commitment to eco-friendly practices, sustainable stitching is paving the way for a more environmentally conscious approach to garment production.

Flat embroidery digitizing, the process of converting artwork into digital stitch files for embroidery machines, plays a central role in sustainable stitching practices. By digitizing designs, manufacturers can minimize material waste and optimize production processes, resulting in more efficient use of resources and reduced environmental impact. This digitization process ensures that every stitch is placed precisely, maximizing the yield of each piece of fabric and minimizing the need for rework or scrap.

One of the key benefits of flat embroidery digitizing in sustainable stitching is its ability to facilitate customization and small-batch production. With digitization, designers can easily create and modify designs to suit specific customer preferences, reducing the need for mass production and excess inventory. This flexibility allows brands to respond quickly to changing trends and consumer demand, without overproducing or contributing to textile waste.

Moreover, flat embroidery digitizing enables designers to explore innovative materials and techniques that further enhance sustainability in fashion. From using organic and recycled fabrics to experimenting with biodegradable threads, digitization opens up new possibilities for creating eco-friendly embroidered designs. By leveraging these materials and techniques, brands can align their products with consumers' growing preference for sustainable and ethically sourced fashion.

Another way flat embroidery digitizing is redefining fashion's future is through its role in promoting transparency and traceability in the supply chain. By digitizing designs and production processes, brands can track the origin of materials, monitor production conditions, and ensure compliance with ethical and environmental standards. This transparency not only builds trust with consumers but also fosters accountability and responsible practices throughout the industry.

In addition to sustainability, flat embroidery digitizing is also driving innovation and creativity in fashion. With advancements in technology, designers can now create intricate and elaborate embroidered designs that were once thought impossible to achieve. From three-dimensional textures to interactive digital embroideries, digitization is pushing the boundaries of what's possible in embroidery, inspiring new trends and styles in fashion.

As we look to the future, flat embroidery digitizing will continue to play a central role in shaping a more sustainable and ethical fashion industry. By embracing digitization and integrating it into their production processes, brands can reduce waste, minimize environmental impact, and meet the growing demand for eco-friendly products. With sustainability becoming an increasingly important consideration for consumers, sustainable stitching powered by flat embroidery digitizing is poised to lead the way towards a more responsible and resilient future for fashion.

In conclusion, sustainable stitching powered by flat embroidery digitizing is revolutionizing the fashion industry, offering a pathway towards a more sustainable, ethical, and innovative future. By leveraging digitization to optimize production processes, minimize waste, and promote transparency, brands can create beautiful embroidered designs that not only look good but also do good for the planet. As consumers become more conscious of the environmental and social impact of their fashion choices, sustainable stitching will play an increasingly vital role in shaping the way we dress and define fashion's future.

Tourism and Rural Development: A Policy Perspective.

Tourism has high potential to stimulate economic growth and social change in rural areas because it contributes to local economies, support other products value chains, distributes benefits across both seasonal and geographic grounds, and promotes the conservation of cultural and natural heritage. Through the UNWTO Tourism for Rural Development Programme, the Organization seeks to enhance these and other opportunities that tourism can bring to rural areas. To devise adequate actions and develop impactful initiatives, it is essential to have solid knowledge and data to help support and monitor the evolution of this important agenda.

One of my all time biggest pet peeves with historical(ish) fantasy is when the writer constructs a religion with a clear bias that it's stupid and false and therefore only the Stupid People and/or commoners believe in it and all the smart/elite main characters are like, quasi-atheists or otherwise just routinely flout established religious conventions of orthodoxy and/or orthopraxy because they're Too Smart for it or etc.

It's usually an extension of assumptions that people in the past were just less intelligent than in the contemporary, just being like "I know that the sun is a star millions of miles away that the earth orbits, but this ancient religion describes it as a chariot flying through the sky" and not really bothering to learn the context and just (consciously or subconsciously) settling on 'that's a crazy thing to think and was probably believed in because they were Stupid'.

And that whole attitude pisses me off so much. People were as 'smart' 10,000 years ago as they are today. These beliefs aren't just desperate, random flailing to explain phenomena that could not directly be accounted for either, it's not like people just looked at the sun and went "Uhhh I don't know what the fuck that thing is, actually. I guess it might be a chariot or a boat or something?? Yeah let's go with that." and based entire religious practices on this. Every well-established belief system exists within broader contexts of cultural values/subjective perceptions of reality/knowledge systems/etc, and exist as part of a historical continuum of religious practices that came before. Even when not Materially Correct, they have context and internal logic, they're not always dead literal with zero levels of allegory, and they're never a result of stupidity.

Had twl phone calls for the social skills class today. Both went well, I think. And they were some of my longer phone calls, because the kids talked for a while (which helled me out). That's why I keep doing these classes, they're good practice.
