functional government was boring!

It’s as though the Trump admin. is running FDR’s first 100 days in reverse: Instead of rebuilding institutions and public trust at a moment of national peril, it seems to be trying to unravel both—and is creating a moment of national peril.

The Treasury Department right now. People are turning out against Musk and DOGE staging a takeover of the Treasury’s payment system. This crowd is big. The whole block is packed. “Lock him up,” everyone yells.

I once stayed at an eco-commune that was built around disability access and it blew my mind. Every neighborhood had wheelchair ramps, nap nooks, meal trains, communal living, ASL translators, even service animals. It was diverse, inclusive and safe. #DEI #solarpunk #solarpunkart

I present option 3:

A solarpunk future where the Oligarchy fell. It's not perfect, there's still conflict but though it was hard to get to, it's nice.

At least that's what I hope.

trump’s trade war will cost americans and is unwinnable. the only purpose it serves is to enrich the oligarchs at the top, forcing americans to buy worse products for more $$$.

You're telling me society can indoctrinate me so that I *enjoy* working and feel a profound lack of purpose when I rest?

That's messed up, dude

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

The Park City ski patrol strike is over. The workers got every major item they wanted from Vail Resorts.

-Starting wages up by $2/hr.

-Senior workers get pay raised by as much as $7.75/hr.

-Better parental leave and professional development.

-A better wage scale and more.

Now would also be a good time perhaps for Canada, Greenland, & the rest of the world to support Hawaii in its efforts to free itself from its colonialism driven, illegal, coercive annexation by the U.S.

This is why the #Solarpunk movement is so important.

It is a way to get people excited about what an ecologically harmonious future could look like.

Our species is very story-driven and that's why we need stories about radical hope to keep us fighting the good fight.
