  • Oh wow. Thank you for the heads up. I will look into this right now.

  • All great projects--I actually run a nonprofit that refurbishes old computers and devices and gives them away to folks who need them. I'm glad to see someone else thinking along the same lines!

  • This whole thing is starting to develop a real 1968 feels--and of course the DNC convention is in Chicago this year . . .

  • Once again my life is hampered by the fact that I do not live in Australia . . .

  • I'd love to hear more about the watering system!

  • God bless you for keeping the local pollinators going and for supporting your local ecosystem in the face of an HOA. I'd love to hear more about this if you'd like to get in touch directly.

  • And now we're blessed in that we get to die in our starter homes, which is absolutely a privilege these days.

  • I like them odds, keep us posted!

  • If I lived closer I'd volunteer to help just to see this beautiful insanity come together. I like the "wheels" work around!

  • That is a great idea! My house's roof bakes in the sun all day and I've been looking for options.

  • One wonders what automating the child production process would look like . . .

  • I can tell you that an average 2-bedroom apartment was about 600USD when I moved to the city I currenlty live in. Today the cheapest apartment in town is 1300USA/month and getting higher. If I hadn't been lucky enough to buy a house when I did, I couldn't afford to live anymore.

  • I'm aging along and I can remember the "old" internet, including the wild-and-wooly IRC/BBS days. It was a much freer space and I'd love to see it regain its Wild West character.

    I think there's a generational issue at work, however: the internet is no longer cool or subversive. For most folks under about 35, it's just another appliance.

  • Revolution in Rojava: Democratic Autonomy and Women’s Liberation in Syrian Kurdistan

    I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in new ways of community building or the current events unfolding in the region.

  • Well there's that minor detail . . .

  • Well said, thank you.

  • Biden hasn't done well addressing the core issues driving the voters he needs--ie young voters and POC voters.

    Trump is doing his best to mobilize his supporters, as turnout is going to determine who wins in November. I'm not sure this was a wise move for him as it could energize his opposition as well. We shall see.
