I found this story on Mastodon, about a maritime shipping disaster and the first-on-the-scene, questionably-legitimate emergency responders who rescue crew, contain the ecological impacts, and restore infrastructure damaged by a megafreighter crash before the official response can get into gear. And who take a bunch of loot when...
Between the large swaths of rewilded land in Fully Automated’s setting (which is protected from any permanent development/dwelings) and the general availability of high tech stuff, I could totally see slow, wandering, nomadic houses being a thing (for good or ill, depending on who in the setting you ask)....

I’ve been thinking about campaigns and discussing possible plotlines with my SO, and while we were talking about options for investigations and the reasons people might commit crimes even in a solarpunk society where everyone has enough, and they reminded me of this podcast which focuses on white collar crimes, their impacts...
I’ve been riding the same Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo Mountain Bike since my uncle found it in a sandpit and gave it to me to ride while away on my first internship. It was in somewhat rough shape back then, and it’s kind of the bicycle of Thesius at this point as parts failed and I found ways to replace them....
This is one I’ve had on my list for months now, and I finally decided to just go ahead and make it. Back when I was researching solar cookers, solar concentrator, and solar furnaces, I ran into a few really interesting ideas around fresnel lenses. Look them up on youtube and you can find all kinds videos of people melting...

Houses require maintenance. How much and how often depends on the design and its surroundings. They also require occupants - in my brief experience at least, they degrade much faster when they’re left cold and empty than when someone lives there, even if that someone doesn’t fix things. Weather, encroaching water, mold, ice,...
My SO and I have been planning to start a mushroom garden for awhile now. You can buy these kits with mushroom spawn in peg form, and you just drill holes in a log and hammer them in. I’d had big dreams of going along the bike path, adding them to all the dead logs there, until I learned how important it is to properly and...

I’ve been thinking about Five’s excellent comments about states and the borders of a post-state world on one of our previous discussions. And since this Lemmy community is intended partially as a repository of resources for players and GMs, I thought I’d gather up some of the cool maps I’ve been looking at, and organize...
The last webcomic I recommended was Black and Blue. This one has a lighter tone, and has got some superhero influences, though I think it still falls under cyberpunk....
A simple figure drawn on a green painted surface in florescent yellow-green paint. It kind of looks like a seriffed number ‘1’ with feet, an eye, and a little hat(?)
This might be a bit of a reach but I’m wondering if anyone here knows enough about concrete production to help me plan the layout of my next photobash. I’d like to do a scene of a solar-thermal concrete factory – there are several supposedly in the works, like Synhelion’s new partnership with Cemex, funded by the US DoE,...
I just finished re-reading Harry Harrison’s The Stainless Steel Rat Gets Drafted which was my favorite from the first time I read the books awhile back....
A flower with a smiley face has been drawn with black crayon(? charcoal?) on a granite wall.
Scrappy Capy Distro has released the first issue of Harbour, an anarchist literary journal. It has 7 pieces from 6 authors, poets, and artists. You can download it for free online, or get it on paper if you happen to live in Berlin and know the anarchist scene there....
I hope this is okay - normally when I post here I write up little book reports for cyberpunk stories and movies rather than post my own stuff. But one of my cyberpunk stories (told from the perspective of an AI weapons platform) just went live in a brand new anarchist zine called Harbour en.scrappycapydistro.info/harbour (it’s...

Last one for now, I think I’m done with trains for a bit, thanks for letting me share these here!...
Another (very quick) take on the caustic soda locomotive concept based on this comment on my last postcard about what a version with swappable boilers might look like....
This is the only other train art I’ve done that would fit this community, but I’m hoping to make one more somewhat soon. I hope it fits okay!...
