Anyone else love hearing rural good ol' boys put the 'Red' in redneck? Do you like it when nonpolitical YouTubers swerve left? If so, enjoy the latest video from science & engineering YouTuber Destin Sandlin of SmarterEveryDay, "The Problem with Capitalism": 🔥 🛠️ ✊ 🇺🇸 […]

I'm trying to introduce a kid to #audiobooks , but I don't listen to them myself. So I'm only learning how to get them, and wow is this experience frustrating. It's been a while since I tried to put mp3s on a player. Everything seems to be streamed now? Or locked to an app? How the hell do I […]

Some folks on our Discord server are looking for players. Reply if interested. #solarpunk #ttrpg #lookingforgames #lfg

My local #altweekly just ran a story about how my #hackerspace repurposed corporate e-waste into #linux digital infrastructure for the #mutualaid society that grew out of a displaced homeless encampment from the documentary I mentioned Wednesday ("Wood Street"). Days like this, it feels like […]

@nature.com A huge review found that #Indigenous communities often protect #biodiversity just as well as, or even better than places where people stay out. There’s a lot we can learn from how they care for the land 💚

I just saw the #documentary "Wood Street" by caron Creighton, and it's outstanding. It's about the eviction and sweep of the Wood Street Commons homeless encampment, and the wisdom of its residents that the city ignored. You might need to wait a minute before it shows close to you, but put it […]

#VoidstarLabs ' latest video is a conference talk on how to release successful #opensource #3dprinting hardware projects! If you're not aware, this guy invented #Gridfinity (the most popular free open-license modular storage system around) several years ago as joke. As usual it's informative […]

A player who is playing a FA! adventure set in #space shared this drawing of their ship: it's a short-range transport jalopy for getting a crew of four and their tools to worksites around high earth orbit. It's called the Bler. I love this #ttrpg #art. As a fan […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

Molly Crabapple is a marvelous writer:

Today, my new book comes out, marking my official entry into publishing. Here after I'll put out a book every month. I wrote this novella to reward those who supported #WindShortFilm but it took a life of its own since the main character, an old woman with social anxiety, has a lot to deal with […]

Two library holds came in at the same time. Looking forward to these! 📚✨

Question for fellow #boardgame nerds: Is there a version of #chess with asymmetric win conditions? What if black was trying to capture white's king, but had no king to capture, and white was just trying to stalemate black? Who would that favor? #gamedev

I just saw I Love Boosters and highly recommend it! It's very fun and very funny. Boots Riley has no need for subtlety, and it's beautiful to watch! #iloveboosters #marxism

Heads up! #Climatetown just dropped another knowledge bomb, and as usual it's more than a little #solarpunk : it's about #trains! 🛤️🚅🚞🚃💚 https://youtu.be/sN7e38Q7e1U (Don't forget: it's cooler to watch on #Nebula, where there aren't ads and the revenue goes to creators instead of fascist tech […]

Holy shit, did you guys hear Harrison Ford's commencement address? It's worth listening to the whole thing, but I'm linking to the part where he really starts cookin'. https://youtu.be/GtFiQsrxWGU?si=5-9eiO4Xu7Qlcd79&t=733 #conservation #solarpunk #harrisonford

RE: https://mograph.social/@dilmandila/115473749375019108 Recently I shared on my patreon about progress on this short film. It's taken a bit of a while to get off the ground (as usual!) but now I'm looking to actually start shooting next month. Here is a sneak peek at the costumes we are […]

I'm making a new film, a dark comedy set in a #solarpunk world where direct democracy thrives, no politicians, no central governments, where communities are self-sufficient and help each other to survive the climate crisis. But I need your support to imagine this future. Details […]

We are now T-minus 2 hours from the start of the launch window for #artemis II to head for the #moon. I find it fitting that the launch requires clear weather. One cannot travel to Luna without allowance from Gaia.

I'm surprised it hasn't been bigger news that today after a 60 year hiatus we're SENDING HUMANS ON A MISSION TO THE MOON!! And if you're thinking 'That's a pretty good April fools post, @FullyAutomatedRPG', please give the credit to @NASA for planning an actual MOON MISSION for 4/1 […]

I made a community bulletin board for my block, and wrote up a build guide! https://www.instructables.com/Outdoor-Community-Bulletin-Board/ #solarpunk #guerillaurbanism #anarchy

Outdoor Community Bulletin Board

Outdoor Community Bulletin Board: I was inspired to build this by seeing a community bulletin board about a half mile from my house on a small street corner. I really liked how it provided a simple way to share messages among neighbors. I saw a few candidate flyers, advertisements f…

Here's an update one month after our new adventure, "Politically Reactive", dropped: We've seen 63 downloads on Itch.io, 121 on DriveThruRPG, and a dozen through our website. Nice! If you're one of these folks: thanks! And also would you consider leaving a […] [Original post on mstdn.games]

A great little write-up about #mastodon from a #fediverse skeptic. https://matduggan.com/boy-i-was-wrong-about-the-fediverse/

Boy I was wrong about the Fediverse

I have never been an "online community first" person. The internet is how I stay in touch with people I met in real life. I'm not a "tweet comments at celebrities" guy. I was never funny enough to be the funniest person on Twitter.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@sci_burst/116163134969812152 Check out the latest Sci_Burst podcast, which just happens to be on a subject very near and dear to us: #solarpunk #gaming !

I don't think most of us need to be convinced of any of this, but even still, check out this video by The Crafsman on why #AI is death. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CC7dmomiVuo

Just listened to @tawnynewsome.bsky.social on @GreatestTrek and omg the vibes are ✨! I love #lowerdecks, and this interview made me appreciate Ms. Newsome even more. So funny/clever/gracious. If you love #starTrek and #DS9 in particular, give it a listen! […]

What's that? A new @climatetown video? HUZZAH! A fun plug: if you support the channel on Patreon, they give you the number for an office landline! I tried it out to ask if they'd try out our new adventure and Rollie said he and the gang would take a look. Neat! […]
