The Solarpunk Survey 2024 (leidenuniv.eu.qualtrics.com)

Hello everyone! For my bachelor’s thesis, I am making a survey to find out what Solarpunks think of the movement, the genre and the community. I believe Solarpunks are often curious about the thoughts of others in the community, so I think this could be another instance to promote discussion and interesting conversations...

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.

Another reason to eat the rich: so they don’t hoard culturally important shit.

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.”

Families will change dramatically over the years to come, says study (phys.org)

The number of relatives that an individual has is expected to decrease by more than 35% in the near future. At the same time, the structure of families will change. The number of cousins, nieces, nephews and grandchildren will decline sharply, while the number of great-grandparents and grandparents will increase significantly....

Babies? In THIS economy?

But jokes aside, I wonder how this would stack up against pre-Industrialized society, what with the high infant/child mortality. And at least Catholics let women fuck off to the nunnery if the whole maternity thing didn’t appeal to them. One way that medieval Catholics were weirdly more progressive than most flavors of Protestants.

Prodigy out on Netflax and I'm happy to see Janeway done decently

sustained fangirl squeeingI’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,...

In the interest of horse-girl infodumping, I recall seeing some at the Gilcrease Museum in Tulsa, OK, and luckily they have some pics for their online collection, thank you Gilcrease.

This one is the one I remembered offhand, with a high pommel and cantle (turns out it’s not Cherokee): collections.gilcrease.org/object/84987

Here’s one that used antler for the pommel and cantle, which I thought was neat: collections.gilcrease.org/object/84984

This one actually has stirrups, looks like the girth attachments are more sophicated than my Dunning-Kruger ass imagined, but the stirrup leathers are, in fact, looped over each of the wooden bars: collections.gilcrease.org/object/84985

As ironic as it is to purchase yon library-economy-promoting book, our comrades still need that cash money to function in real life. And this indie ebook is significant cheaper than the last mainstream ebook I bought.

Crisis averted, my dude pulled the other cat bed out of the hall closet. But why was it in the hall closet?

I don’t like that, but I am a card-carrying member of the Cult of Baths. I want to be inundated, stewed, and marinated

Maybe amber glass isn't the best idea (possumpat.io)

Inherited a set of these amber glass cups from my dude’s great-grandma. I like them, they make me feel a little fancy, but I absolutely cannot gauge a steep color in these. I’ve got water as hardass as a Humphrey Bogart character, and it helps to glance at the color to see if I’ve got a decent steep, especially for herbal...

New water change, new look (photos.app.goo.gl)

Because redecorating a 10g fish tank with fake plants is cheaper than redecorating my apartment. It ended up more open on top than I wanted but my betta boi still has his floating log to hide in. Gonna go blow all my money on more aquarium decor to alter it during next week’s water change.

solarpunking the educational system (www.youtube.com)

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. (extra linky just in case:...

thegiddystitcher, to knitting

The perils of public bus knitting.

LOTS of bus travel for me today, so naturally I brought my sock project. Forgot I needed to frog the start of sock two and cast on again though. In public. Uhoh, pressure.

Well it is my pleasure to inform you that this morning I successfully remembered how to do a figure 8 cast on without looking up the instructions, for the first time ever 😎

I guess hardship leads to success, or something.

I wish I could use my bus commute time constructively but I get hella carsick

Why is my betta not a good eater?

This is the 3rd betta I’ve had and he’s just not food motivated like every other betta I’ve seen. We’ve tried pellets, flakes, and assorted freeze dried shit and he’ll still mostly ignore it until it sinks to the bottom, and then maybe he’ll nibble it. Bruh you are not a catfish or pleco, wtf. He’s a “samurai”...

I wanna start foraging, especially because it’s mulberry season where I live, but my tiny apartment kitchen is tiny, and I don’t have nearly enough space for all the gear to preserve the foods, nor the freezer space. What I need is a community kitchen, where I can borrow space and equipment. Shit, I might need to start another post on the community kitchens and/or their being analogous to tool libraries and communal workshop space.
