Jo - pièce de résistanceI look forward to the post capitalist days when I can go outside and enjoy the green shaded paths, and graze from the abundance on trees and bushes at will, watch all the colorful birds, and meet up at the local makerspace, skillshare, tool and appliance library, repair cafe, music, art studios & gallery and performance space, farmers market, coop greenhouse & solar powered food trucks in former parking lots, gardens, flea markets, etc. that took over a former mall.
A girl can dream.
BrambleBearSnoringA Dear One used to say, "Dream big dreams, then put your overalls on." It is a quote but don't know the origin.
May we all find/make/upcycle rugged solarpunk overalls!!!!
lobsterI'll have what your having. With local herbs freely growing and available to sniff and flavour...
@lobster yes. And instead of lawn mowers on pathways we have goats…and goat cheese.
I knew there was a plan that made sense. I like goats and their cheese... and their tree climbing abilities. Urban goats would not put up any of the nonsense from street foxes...
DoomsdaysCWYou had me at post-capitalist and solarpunk -- but the goat cheese just sealed the deal, @JoBlakely !
That sounds like a great line for a solarpunk movie!
Takes place from today through 2030, shows steps, processes, relationships, challenges, stumbling blocks, progress, multiple perspectives and goals.
Made with solar energy. Distributed through indy network of soveren digital platforms and movie houses.
Local organic heritage popcorn available during showings.

Kat S@JoBlakely Plant paradise where there once was a parking lot?
@KatS
Haha! Yes!
Haha! Yes!
SevenDeadlyExes@JoBlakely I'm up for building it!? I've been picking up litter this morning and I'm trying to get some wildflowers going too - pretty sure I remember reading about a gardening group up the road and a fix it club at the library - I gotta get around to visiting those soon!

I’m always reminded of Buckminster Fuller’s quote: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”

JD@JoBlakely We will build it together! 🤘 All of us.
Orion (he/him)@JoBlakely Let's hope we live long enough to see it.

As we have less money we shop less, as those stores can’t make sales. As people learn to live without, they find other ways to make life beautiful, joyful, & entertaining. Values shift.
I think those chain stores need to go out of business. We need more personal, unique, informed, & curated service these days to buy less & better. Space might get more available then. Things may change.
The earth is going to be kicking our ass hard if we don’t demand better. It already is.
Mx. Luna Corbden 🐸@JoBlakely I found this YouTuber, "Crime Pays But Botany Doesn't", and it's this hilarious botanist in Texas who goes around ranting about the stripmall hellscape, but also tours the yards of people who have killed their lawn and repopulated with native plants.
We don't have to wait to get this started!
@corbden exactly. Many have already.
Pottery by Osa@JoBlakely this is basically what Portland, Oregon was like when I lived there 20 years ago. That is to say, it’s very possible!
Regendans@JoBlakely A beautiful future, thank you so much for sharing this among the terrible world news. 👏
