Correction: Lee Kalliroi Buchanan identifies as #NonBinary!
I hardly ever go out anymore, but hubby took me to see #NickOfferman. Wow! In addition to hearing him rant against #AI and #ElonMusk, he also praised #ToolLibraries and #MakerSpaces and #DIY! And the best part? Live #woodworking with his very cool associate, #LeeKalliroiBuchanan (I loved seeing them in action)!
Ooooh... I just found the date for the next #RipeForRepair meetup in #PortlandME, and also some cool events at the #PortlandPublicLibrary (building #Habitat, #SeedSwaps, etc). What #SolarPunk related events are happening where you are? The #SolarPunkSunday team wants to know!!!
#RepairCafes #ToolLibraries #ToySwaps #ClothingSwap #Mending #Workshops #CircularEconomy #Sharing #BuildingCommunity #PracticalSolarPunk
On Tuesday, October 21, check out this session on how tool libraries serve as a crucial community resource after disasters.
These are important community-driven hubs to beef up during times like these, now that we all understand the US Government has completely abandoned its people.

I've been thinking about #toolLibraries and the role of a #LibraryEconomy in the sustainable #solarPunk future I want to work towards. I wrote a little bit about that idea on my blog: https://underwaterbook.club/2024/01/16/unusual-libraries/
Also I need to learn about fediverse post visibility settings.
@kkarhan yup, interloan isn't a new idea at all!
The only difference here is we'd be looking to make that process much smoother and faster - and especially make it available to very small #toollibraries and #buynothing groups.
A 🧵on the ongoing #meansofproduction project - which is designed to enable #librarysocialism along with #federation of all types of libraries, especially #toollibraries, and even #Housing
