(Glances at AO3 stories left un-updated for 2 years. Glances away as if I didn't see that.)

If food waste is a concern, I wonder if US-style leftover culture will spread, except I don't know how that might impact disposable container consumption.

Personally I'm okay with slice of life stuff. It's about the experience rather than the plot, but I get it if that's not your jam.

 

I've only seen a couple reviews on it, not the piece itself, but my general impression is 1) diabetes-inducing adorable, 2) probably as anticapitalist a message as we're gonna get from a capitalism factory.

I want a picture rail so it's easy to hang all them things.

Given my extremely ambiguous feelings about some of my uncles, I dunno that it always means that much.

My problem is that I would end up more unfitted granny-hippie than punk. Just wear shit inspired by hanfu, caftans, and elastic waist pants. Me and my muumuu don't need no tailor.

I have mixed feelings about this because it often ends up meaning that people feel entitled to free female labor. What do I get out of this village, huh? Do I at least get a casserole?

So many deadbeat dudes who finally got served divorce papers just turn around and snag another woman to dump all the domestic labor onto.

Man, assuming they have the money, indigenous tribes also in the US could do some amazing solarpunk shit. Renewable energy like this, rewilding and traditional sustainable land management, maybe even guaranteed housing in a communal setting. But they have a hard time getting the feds to give them the funding for the treaty-mandated healthcare shit as it is.

Black Forager, whom I mostly follow on F-book.

I got into solarpunk mostly because I'm too butch for cottagecore, but I might be too granny to satisfy the punk requirements. I wanna stay on my couch and knit, you guys, I'm so tired.

This is the kind of thing I think about to get the useful bits out of the "touch grass" meme.

Unfortunately I'm not very good at it and time isn't real until the stores put out the commercialized holiday crap: It's only really summer when the 4th of July kitsch is put out on the shelves. It sucks and I want to be better about it.

I'm ready to defend my girl KonMari.

The TL;DR of this article is that KonMari method doesn't work for the author. Author feels defensive about her collection of sentimental items and wants more advice about organizing than KonMari offers.

Maybe this book isn't helpful for some people. That's okay. Doesn't mean you need to do clickbait libel to my girl with "debunk."

 

IDK if this is quite solarpunk, but it's some kind of eco-punk.

This guy films himself cleaning up culverts and street drains, mostly in the New England region of the US, with a rake and hip waders. He bitches about beavers and idiots with excavators and has a lot of technical opinions on road engineering that I find interesting for no good gawddamn reason.

Props to him if he makes a decent amount on these videos. Better than customer service work.

 

sustained fangirl squeeing I'm only about eight episodes in, but gAwD, it's amazing what studios can do when they actually do long-term planning. Consistent characterization that isn't just smashing foils together like Tuvok and Neelix or Tom and Harry? More than 4 recycled plots? YAY BOSS BAE JANEWAY. Unfortunately, Chakotay doesn't have enough screen time (yet) to see if they figured out what to do with him. Voyager definitely didn't seem to know what to do with him except as the vehicle for Creeping Heteronormativity. JUSTICE FOR CHAKOTAY

 

Jumping from a previous post on education. Feel free to skip the first 7:30 minutes (which mostly defines solarpunk as a concept, I think we're good on that in this space), but this seems like this Human Restoration Project is a good thing with the wonk behind it to make it functional.
