  Decided to make an account on Bluesky and automate posting links from my SLRPNK site. All quite new to me, but I've got the posting working, just need to work on a schedule now. Just another little way to keep sharing #solarpunk goodness and potential positive futures without draining my energy. https://bsky.app/profile/slrpnk.bsky.social

  Sharing in case this helps others as much as it has helped me: a couple of weeks ago, I changed my phone's colour correction settings because I was starting to feel very overwhelmed and unable to stop mindless scrolling. I've tried greyscale but couldn't stick with it. This has been a great balance - everything's still in colour but muted, and it adds a slightly unappealing green tint to everything which helps too. Immediately improved my interaction with my phon...

  I've set up SLRPNK so you can "like" stuff now (without an account), and also share your recommendations via a link like this! #solarpunk #dev https://slrpnk.co.uk/recommendations.html?curation=10d61081e230410aaa59c5d31df68c26

  Updated the SLRPNK website so anyone can recommend a resource, and then also share a list of your recommended resources. No login, just saved in your browser. Here's a quick example of a curated collection. This is new ground for me so hoping it's all working as expected, but one step closer to making this thing more collaborative 💚 https://slrpnk.co.uk/recommendations.html?curation=10d61081e230410aaa59c5d31df68c26 #solarpunk #dev

  London School of Solarpunk describe themselves as a new free art school, imagining ways of living collectively under the sun through social art & experimental education. Their website (in progress) also says they're a co-op. Considering I now have a website designed to collect inspiring #Solarpunk stories, and I'm not too far from #London, I'm not quite sure how I missed this one! Will definitely be keeping an eye out. https://www.instagram.com/solarpunkldn http...

  Spent a couple of hours adding new resources today - there are now over 180 links on the site! 💚 https://slrpnk.co.uk/ #solarpunk #dev #solarpunksunday

  Has anyone ever attempted a mass boycott of for-profit businesses? It's something I think about from time to time (and it's basically where I would love to get to personally with my spending) - I think it could be a tricky sell, but if even a few thousand people really tried for a few days, it could allow so many people to realise they have options, and discover the co-ops, non-profits, repair cafes etc. already on their doorstep. #anticapitalism #boycott

  Finally got around to figuring out how to create playlists by querying the #Jellyfin db with certain criteria so it'll update the playlist with a set number of new songs whenever I want. This probably wasn't something I should've done in #R but I'll always choose R.

  Very much enjoying this website - your ai slop bores me lets you larp as AI and it's basically just a one-shot convo with a stranger and honestly, really great time. Also excellent music recs. https://youraislopbores.me #antiai #youraislopboresme

  "The action we need to take is to build commons, and, in the process, recover our birthright: the experience of living in material community as we discover that most of our daily life is – has always been – commoning." This piece really eloquently sums up my own stance on where we should be spending our time and effort to build a better future. https://growingcommons.substack.com/p/why-i-choose-to-build-commons-rather #anticapitalism #future #commons

  What if people started putting little notices outside their houses for things they're happy for neighbours to knock on their door and ask about unannounced? I had this thought recently, and I feel like it solves a few problems quite nicely, so mocked up this poster (I feel hand-drawn would be nicer though) What do you think? Would you put something like this up? Would you knock on a door with this poster up? #solarpunk #community #future

  I've been working on SLRPNK since my post yesterday popped off and it's looking a lot nicer now 💚 My goal for this is to be a rabbit hole that people can fall down every once in a while to find new ideas, media or resources, that inspire people to take action. Keeping it simple for a while, but feedback is appreciated. Will likely keep adding new links as I find them. https://slrpnk.co.uk/ #solarpunk

  Glad I stumbled across Counter Currents recently - really love the Counter Solutions articles and I'm slowly working my way through them. Thoughtful, and hopeful ideas for a better world 🌼 https://countercurrents.org/topics/counter-solutions/ #media #solarpunk #hope

  I've been interested in the idea of #Solarpunk #photography for a while. I still haven't had a chance to organise a shoot, but I did recently attempt to create #rawtherapee #presets to try to capture the vibe of Solarpunk art. Tested it out today with #photos from the local #repaircafe and quite like the results (even though I designed this for use on outdoor images.) #solarpunksunday #photoediting #ditchadobe

  I kinda want to learn how to build desktop programs to make offline tools. Is #Tauri the way to go? I'm pretty much starting from scratch with any of the options I've come across in my minimal research. I tend to build things around data of some kind - I'd like to upgrade an old Google Sheets budget tracker to be less... Googley. I'm still on Windows, but will be exploring Linux as soon as I have the mental bandwidth. Would like to build stuff that works on both...

  Really lovely video from Co-operatives UK and Tony Walsh: "This Beautiful Idea." Would love to see this shared far and wide and get a few more people curious enough to do their own research on co-ops https://youtu.be/mwBKsuCZfgc #cooperative #coop #cooperatives

  This little guy let me know how he was feeling after we accidentally trapped him in the seal of our window for a couple of hours 🙁
