I’m not trying to turn your kids trans; that’s stupid. I’m trying to turn them into socialists.

One of the foremost reasons I like solarpunk is that in the mainstream, being eco-friendly is about sacrifice. Don’t buy new things, don’t buy plastic, don’t take unnecessary trips—etc. It’s not sustainable unless you’re a saint. It’s exhausting to abstain from consumerism without having alternatives like the things Solarpunk emphasizes: community, resources held in common, sustainable hobbies like gardening and mending (and all other sorts of repair), free and accessible public transportation, etc. Solarpunk is about creating a world where being eco-friendly is about joy, not deprivation.

One of the great things about public libraries isn't even that the books are free (though that is a great thing about them no doubt) but also the free book storage.

I don't need to own a copy of that book. My library has it. Yeah I might need to wait if someone else takes it out the same time I want it, but relatively few books are required on short notice, especially with stuff like fiction. In the meanwhile I don't have to find a place for that book or that book or that book or etc in my house. I don't have to go buy more bookshelves. I don't have to haul this fuckton of heavy books around every time I move or rearrange the furniture. I only have to own a book if I actually do need it on short notice a lot for something (in which case, a digital copy is probably more convenient anyway) or if I really really love it so much that it's worth having it in my space.

But for the most part the books live at the library, together with each other, and I can just go there any time I want one. Those are my bookshelves! Also everyone else's in the community. But still, mine too!

"Punishment works!!!" We're drowning in three to four generations of people so pants-shittingly terrified of ever being wrong that half of everyone has constructed a worldview wherein they never even consider the possibility that they could be wrong and the other half behaves like one wrong move will make anything or anyone explode violently into a million irreperable pieces. I don't think it works guys

your dashboard is supposed to be at LEAST halfway full of shit you have no context for and fandoms you're not involved in. it is the natural way of the universe

One of the major dividing lines of our age is between those who think it's worthwhile to cooperate and work with other people, accepting their flaws and limitations, to build something larger than ourselves, and those who think everything is fundamentally hopeless and that other people are corrupt, degenerate, and suspect. And the latter is not conducive to having any kind of culture at all.

Gosh.

Must be rough for them.

non-writers will never understand the mental illness of writing an entire conversation in your head while doing dishes and then forgetting every word the second you open a blank doc

The thing about those people cynically going "people are inherently selfish, all social interactions are transactional, nobody ever does anything unless there's something in it for them" is that they're right, but they're saying it like it's a bad thing and really want somebody to sweep in and prove them wrong. But like... Yeah no shit? That is how things work. You look after people who look after you. The only people who are willing to give you something for absolutely nothing are the people using you as a tool to punish themselves, a form of self-harm.

I've got people in my life who keep my stupid ass alive in exchange for companionship, social advice and emotional support. What the fuck are you doing with your life that you've observed that people consistently leave you every time when they realise that they get nothing in exchange for being a part of your life?

I'm seeing a lot of talk about this new Homestuck show by Vivziepop's studio coming out and apparently this is gonna cause a lot of "discourse" (which my old internet brain interprets as "flame wars"), and I guess I must be out of the loop.

I've read about half (I think) of Homestuck (through Chapter 4), and thought it was pretty good. I've heard vague mention of the main creator being somehow problematic and/or hard to work with, but don't know any details.

I have no idea about Vivziepop or Hazbin Hotel, but get the sense they are also hard to work with or something, idk.

So, my 2 basic questions are:

How problematic is this thing going to be and in what way(s)?

How good is the quality of the show likely to be?
