It can be two things. One, a person can be viscerally repulsed from voting for soulless politicians like Harris. That is understandable, though I do my best to urge people to vote for her anyway.

Two, it could be a paid shill only pretending to care for Palestinian lives, trying to prevent anyone from voting who isn’t a Trump cultist.

And if you read the post or watch the video instead of trying to discourage people from voting, you will see I have considered this and speak to it.

If you read more than the post title or watch the video, you will see that I talk about this critical issue.

Clearly I don’t have the right setup (or aptitude) for this kind of video. I’m only speaking at the camera because this is life-and-death important.

Would you recommend compost toilets as a way to not waste human waste? I’m trying to imagine how that would work at city scale. Would communities cart the waste to their rooftop and nextdoor food forests? Would garage-truck style vehicles help in moving it?

As I suspected, the majority (59%) believe that skyscrapers with green stuff on them were solarpunk. This isn’t largely true, but I think the main entry point is people enjoy imagining better cities.

I am trying to create solarpunk art with more practical options for verdant urban spaces.

I think I’m a registered organ donor. Would prefer to donate my whole body to science and sidestep the whole funeral business.

Anything is better than fire cremation. The article says it takes more energy than driving five hundred miles.

I’m outlining my next solarpunk novel. Wish me luck (and endurance).

I uploaded my own solarpunk novel to a solarpunk “Library.” Mostly care about spreading the ideas anyway.

 

In short, US residents need to shut it down before Genocide Joe escalates us to World War III.

 

I projected this and so much more on (formerly) Twitter HQ in San Francisco. You can see then are sign that used to show the company name.

 
 

Systems that profit off the death of children must be dismantled. Governments complicit in genocide are illegitimate.

“Our philosophy is that if you can’t open it, you don’t own it. Once you disassemble, repair, and put back together your laptop or iPod, you have a much better understanding of what goes into it. It’s astounding how just 20 minutes of work can make an iPod good as new – but most people have no idea that there are instructions available to make the work easy. And why should they? Apple tells everyone that the battery isn’t user-serviceable.“

 

Capitalism pays people top dollar to put on a badge and oppress their neighbors. What if instead of safeguarding inequality we prioritized protecting people from the ClimateCrisis. That’s what the American Climate Corps aims to do. What if instead of coercing citizens to become slave catchers to fill the prison-industrial complex we funded opportunity, paid teachers more, and started an #UBI to reduce the inequality and desperation that leads to crime. What if we put more money into prevention, rather than punishment, into mental health and fighting fires, into healthcare rather than driving people into bankruptcy. What if we guaranteed housing, took the speculation market out of living, so we didn’t have to force people onto the streets.

I’m dancing-on-photons happy to reveal the cover by Rita Fei for my upcoming solarpunk novel, Murder in the Tool Library. You can pre-order it on this site as well as on some more mainstream ones. The paperbook will be available on Barnes and Noble closer to the release date on Dec 8th.
