Resist: It's Time

We are still in this together, but "this" is going to be real different in the very near future. This demands a different kind of "we."

The French Resistance during Nazi occupation played important roles delivering downed Allied airmen back to safety, supplying military intelligence, and acts of sabotage.

The Underground Railroad is estimated to have brought 100,000 freedom seekers to safety between 1810 and 1850.

It's time.

Do they have biodegradable glitter? I know biodegradable makes it easier to remove…. So Sand then?

Gotta go with something environmentally safe, but not biodegradable.

Mica flakes would do the trick. Reflective enough, dyable in a pinch, easy to source.

Drawback is sharp edges, but that can be mitigated with a decent suspension in slime. The stuff that kids were all into a while back. Non toxic, easy to make in big batches, sticks all over, and hard to clean off while still on the move.

But, the slime itself is a usable option tbh, the mica glitter would just make cleanup harder, it wouldn't add much to is effectiveness, or I don't think it would.

I've seen regular glitter vs masks, and it does work by itself, to a limited degree. So the mica may well be a good option as an addition, I just don't know when I'd be able to test it, so I can't say for certain. I can ask around, see if I can find someone to work on it as a fun experiment.
