A poet friend once advised me: “it’s not your guts, don’t make it precious to you, just write what comes, it’s not identity or possession, mine it later for good bits”.
Write garbage for a few minutes when you start. Plan on throwing that away. Warm up. Stretch the brain then put it to work. It’s low risk.
Mutual Aid Anarchists are Nazis now! Up is Down! Centralized Authority is Freedom! Equality and Equity are Oppression!! Thank you comrade!!!
toe the line
It’s idiom about military regimentation not fishing.
Also, WTF, RT is just as much propaganda as Sky News.
.ml user here thinks that everyone else picks servers due to ideological loyalty-- main character syndrome – let’s just call everyone fascist if they aren’t tankies, eh?
It’s not a “they” in this case, it’s an “us”. You have way more agency, in most cases, than you suggest.
Yeah delivery services are great for the disabled and people isolated by car-centric design.
A 15-minute urban design ethos makes delivery unnecessary for most in favour of the much healthier and more culturally beneficial self reliant errand running. If you don’t spend hours commuting, you can engage in an actual neighbourhood, get to know your suppliers and neighbours, and participate in your locale.
Manure or compost tea is the best, but usually you make it yourself because it’s simple. Of course, you need compost or sheepshit.
Around here the blackberries touch you.
Marv Newland, from Vancouver. Rocketship was his animation studio.
Also look up Lupo the Butcher if you like this.
No, not if the sample methodology is sound, that’s an ample sample. Yes, ask about the methodology, but harping on the number of interviewees is naiive.
1200 interviews would have been statistically convincing, and it’s threefold.
Infuse connected to a simple SMB share is the best Apple TV interface. It’s the only TV app I pay for, but pretty cheap.
You have to organize and name files correctly and sometimes you have to switch subtitles but it is reliable and easy to use.
Yeah we have no pickup at all so we have to take it to recycling as an errand. We the people do all the sorting there, so we have a cupboard in the carport with several blue bins and we do a big run on a Saturday usually. It’s close to the village so on the errand route.
It’s pretty close to a true Transition model, and evolving for the better, so I am pretty proud of it. It’s truly community oriented, with a decently large free library of books and magazines, and decent jobs, and ready for the rest of the world to catch up.
The true cost of waste is always in our faces, so we wind up pretty careful about consumption.
ITA: “Slopaganda” isn’t strong enough
Translation: if you live inland, that is, away from the coast on a large land mass like eurasia, you will have a shorter spring and fall, and summer will be longer, hotter, and more intense.
Since the world has taken an economic and ecological downturn since Reagan’s election, and he based his economic and ecological policies on Thatcher’s lies, we can squarely blame the poor luck of the IRA for our accelerated demise.
I wonder how the other timelines are doing, where the coin tosses went another way?
edit: I see, this is addressed in a popular tv show.
We live in the country, and it turns out great that we don’t have garbage pickup, because we also have fantastic and nearly complete recycling through a community facility that separates everything… batteries here, cream containers there, corks in this bin, foam there, electronics talk to that gal. Plus we compost or bury everything organic.
It means we pay $7 for a bag of garbage and we have to drop it off near the grocery store, but we only have one black bag every six weeks or so for a household of four.
Trawling is the clear-cutting of the fishing world, boycott all fish caught that way.
Seine netting is often terrible too, as it can catch whole schools.
A 90% tax rate on all oligarchs and related industries, so that is a surprising suggestion coming from an oligarch, but I guess the math still is profitable.
Or, you know, something involving guillotines and pitchforks, and seizure of the means of production and reproduction.
