Mutual aid will be more important than ever, join and build up your local groups if you're able, it will pay off in dividends in the coming years.

This election has only proven how electoralism cannot be relied upon, it's just us now. We need to build the world we want to live in, without corporate influence.

  • Search your local area + 'mutual aid'.
  • Help your local food not bombs.
  • Create a worker owned cooperative with your friends if possible, or join an existing one.
  • Help spread the meshtastic network to build up communication resilience in your community.
  • Plant trees in your community to help reduce the heat island effect for the coming heatwaves.
  • Create or join a community garden near you to bolster food availability and foster connections with those around you.
  • engage in guerrilla urbanism, make your community safer to walk or bike
  • encourage your coworkers to unionize under the IWW, contact them for help on how to unionize your workplace.
  • vote in your local elections to try and have a state or city government that is less hostile to the above actions, but continue to build decentralized power independently of them regardless. Do not make the mistake of handing off the responsibility to make things better to them, it's up to YOU, and your community, and hopefully other nearby communities doing the same, but that is all.

We have tremendous collective power if we just use it, and hopefully this outcome will result in us coming together and building that world in the shell of the old. Collective solidarity is our only solution left.

Glad to hear it :)

If enough of us join in, we'll be a force to be reckoned with!

The IRA, while still inadequate, was a pretty substantial bill regardless, and was helping move the needle on green energy.

Mussolini won in a landslide, and had the popular vote.

The humid jungles near the equator will have more wet bulb days than any other place, most likely.

Alan Carr's stop smoking book is highly regarded, and encourages you to smoke as you read along, until by the end you won't want to.

Combine that with a NAC supplement (which doesn't do anything for withdrawals, but studies show it makes trying smoking again far more unpleasant for your brain which helps you stay off them.

When I was a kid, I played a lot of Runescape. I loved that the quests were all unique and had their own, sometimes genuinely well written and engaging stories, with point'n'click style puzzles, reminiscent of Sierra games. It was the most fun I've ever had in an mmo.

But my god is there a lot of repetitive grinding. I tried to get back into it a few years ago, but my patience for killing the same mob for 3 hours straight, or cutting and burning trees like a giant line of cocaine, simply isn't there anymore.

I wish I could play a version of it without the grind, and just the quests.

Honestly, I'd recommend just changing the title to something less inflammatory than Veritasium's chosen title, like "How Approval Voting is the only type that encourages democracy" or whatever you can think of, because his title is just going to get people downvoting it by assuming it encourages not voting.

She could've used fossilfreefunds.org to pick something that wasn't invested in oil or prison slave labor.

Dried lentils are an incredibly versatile ingredient, keep forever, are cheap and healthy, and unlike dried beans, do not require overnight soaking to use in a meal.

It's amazing how accurate they were able to be with that old equipment. Thought it would be interesting to share how much we knew so long ago.
