Fantastic article! This jumped out: "the simple act of getting naked is an anarchic rejection of capitalist society, where our value is often determined by how much we can spend. Nudity strips away the constant marketing about how we need to change our bodies and what we need to buy to do so."

Golden rays. Another one from this morning, taken from Wearyall Hill in Glastonbury, about an hour after sunrise.

I’ll be taking it out into the forest for some proper beauty shots this afternoon pixelfed.social/p/martinclif...

Some body parts are taboo and can even cause offence or outrage when seen in public. It hasn't always been the case, and still isn't in some societies, but it doesn't have to be this way. We think it's high time this farcical charade was dropped and our natural human form embraced and celebrated.

Looking to make a start on electric guitar? You could do a lot worse than looking at Jet guitars pixelfed.social/p/martinclif...

This song is definitely growing on me! Love the energy in the video, even if it's clearly a low-budget affair! Elagu Eesti! youtu.be/8Brb0M3UgEA #Eurovision #Estonia

LOVE this song, can't wait for the new album! youtu.be/QeXEctUK3yI

Sad news. This kinda “all welcome” approach is exactly what the world needs. Thankfully still the case in many places

There are days when I want to run screaming for the hills (or more likely the beach). But there are others where I, much more rationally, realise I’m 48 years old, definitely do *not* have all my stuff together, and so get on with the drudgery of everyday life

If you return unwanted Reform local election leaflets to their party headquarters using their free post address, then it will cost the party £2.50 per envelope. Please don’t share this information; it could cost Nigel Farage a fortune.

Don’t get me wrong, I am a proud naturist, I do detest how society treats nudity so poorly, I do dream of a day where that changes, BUT Whenever I see anyone propose naturism as a cure-all for societal woes and mental health, I think that’s reductive, unhelpful, and disturbingly Evangelical-esque.

Congratulations Hungary! Hoping for similar shifts to come in Slovakia and eventually the US. The Right’s time is drawing to a close

They will grow up into well balanced individuals.

Evening is my favorite time to wind down. A time to shed the tension of the whole day literally and metaphorically. ​Sleeping naked is not just about better thermoregulation and relief for our skin, but above all, a pure sense of freedom. #sleepnaked #selfcare #lifestyle

No matter how many wars he starts, we won’t forget about the Epstein files. Put him in jail!

Today Donald Trump lashed out at every major MAGA influencer because they won’t continue to support him even though he’s a pedophile rapist warmonger.

We are our own harshest critics. Naturism helps us realise that others accept us exactly as we are. 🌿✨ Freedom begins the moment you stop trying to hide who you are. #Naturism #BodyPositive

It’s a really lovely story, well worth reading

Naturism is like listening to your favorite song on vinyl. There are no shortcuts, no "skip" button. Just the pure texture of life: the warmth of the sun on your shoulders, the coolness of moss under your feet, and the wind, unhindered by any layer of fabric #nudismo #naturist #naked

Ah the joys of Hong Kong banking. 90 minutes and counting…

Yet another reason why he needs to lose, and lose badly. Orbán is a disgrace, ruining a beautiful country bbc.com/news/article...

Hong Kong is a long way behind much of Asia when it comes to embracing naturism. Which is a shame, as it has some amazing beaches pixelfed.social/p/martinclif...

Clothing should always be an option, not a requirement. Body freedom and acceptance matters

Sounds like they’re doing things the right way. But of course it’s shocking to a culture based on shame, forced sexualisation and incorrect biblical interpretation

For some, naturism is less about being seen and more about finally feeling a little more at ease in who they already are. 🌿

Śmigus-dyngus is one of my favorite Polish traditions. While today it’s mostly about fun water fights, its roots run much deeper: purification, the joy of waking nature, and celebrating vitality. How about you? #smingusdyngus #tradition #polishtradition

After some of my experiences with the church in the last year or so, it was so wonderful to worship as part of a community that values gospel truth rather than conservative politics yesterday

Shame is not natural. It is a taught response based on misinformation. Don’t inflict your children with the curse of body shame, and overcome it in your own life, and you’ll see the world in a new, brighter light

Hallelujah, Christ is Risen! Happy Easter! May today’s celebration of resurrection inspire a rebirth in all of us, to see ourselves as God sees us, loved, unashamed, enough. And use that confidence to inspire ourselves to discover more of what it means to be truly human made in God’s image

Does the idea of walking a trail with no clothes feel enticing? Scary? Radical? Or the most natural thing ever?

I’m not posting a lot right now. But I’m back in Hong Kong, where I lived for 8 years, and it feels good to be back. There’s a comfort in familiarity, for all that it’s expensive, crazy busy, and a culture with very poor body relationships

Glad to be back in the 852! pixelfed.social/p/martinclif...

If we are serious about protecting young people, we need to approach social media policy with that nuance in mind.

Finally listening to the eponymous latest Alter Bridge album. It’s all really good, but Playing Aces is an absolute TUNE 🎶🤘

Watching a concert on YouTube from 22 years ago... can't help feeling life was, if not better, at least simpler back then!

Naturism offers a way of being that dares to suggest that who we are without any additions or covering up is all we need to be. -Philip Carr-Gomm

This is so much fun! youtu.be/mxYiQtv73Pk
