Industry, climate change, and my politics
Industry is not incompatible with ecology- and anyone claiming they are is either a reckless capitalist looking to consume the natural world for profit, or a luddite with a very poor understanding of what actually makes current industry unsustainable.
Every product must last, and be recyclable. We also need to capture toxic and dangerous byproducts: storing them if we can't use them. And at that we should be a lot better off.
Industry, climate change, and my politics
You start making products that last. You stop making things that will break so another can be sold, you take control and build a more durable world that lasts for human use.
Then you cut out the industry that's not needed anymore. Once you're making housing and appliances that last decades instead of years you've already made a massive leap towards sustainability.
Opinions on cities and legacy
@Deiru@gensokyo.social @Pyretta Like in Futurama with New New York.
i love rewatching stuff after i’ve gained some new context, and the scene from ghost in the shell where togusa and the major are discussing why the major put togusa on her team is pretty great for this. “organizations or humans, what lies beyond specialization is a slow death.” has another element entirely to it now
@haskal I have a couple plastic jellybean containers with flashdrives and other things like that in them.
Pets (hamsters)
@Jo I had guinea pigs as a kid, and my sister would try to walk them on a leash or put them in a ball. They would just try to get out of their harness when they were on the leash, and in the ball they would just stand in one place looking scared.
Genitals shitpost, death mention
@kelbesque Three days, that's impressive. It took me over two years to restore my foreskin.
@Jo I use DOSBox every day at work. We're still using ancient DOS accounting software, and it runs in a fork of DOSBox and prints invoices to our old dot matrix printers.
@cute@deadinsi.de @CyclopsCaveman
Yeah. I was cut so tight that my skin would sometimes tear and bleed when puberty started. Restoring my foreskin fixed that, and it has helped a lot in other ways. I made a secondary(nsfw) mastodon account for tracking my progress: @theonefreeman@humblr.social
Only a consenting adult should be able to decide to have parts of their genitals cut off, whether they are male, female, or intersex.
@CyclopsCaveman Exactly, that's why I restored my foreskin.
I love #emacs, #gnu, and #freesoftware

I'm an intactivist, all children have the right to be protected from genital cutting before they can consent, regardless of their genitalia. A consenting adult has the right to do what they want with their own body. #intactivism #i2 #autonomy
