Eine große Stadt ist ein Meisterwerk der Kooperation. Fragil wie ein Lebewesen.

I'm on #meshcore now. The distributed off-grid communication system that will work when everything else is down, so we can organize #mutualaid / #mutualcare when it's needed. It seems to be booming in the Netherlands right now.
People say I've "given up" the "climate struggle".
Nope: the #justcollapse-movement is the next incarnation of the #climatejustice-struggle, because the more climate catastrophe, the more climate injustice, which #SoliPrepping inter alia seeks to reduce.

Is the end of the world nigh, or just the end of the world as we know it? Are we set to doom-scroll our way to apocalypse? Or is this the moment we wake up to ourselves, change course, and save the planet? Don't miss this hilarious battle of brains and bravado when two teams join Big Ideas' host and science journalist Natasha Mitchell at Hobart City Hall for the annual Beaker Street Festival Great Debate. Have our multi-crises of climate change, over-consumption, over-reliance on vulnerable technologies, and [insert your favourite impending disaster here] finally brought us to the brink? Or do we just love a good challenge, the hairier and scarier the better!? You decide the winner. Your life could depend on it.
