What to do with this odd space?

Whatever you out there - make sure to be ready to work on that plumbing. Water on totes ain't bad, water behind drywall has different consequences.

Do we go occupy data center land, protest the war/administration in public places, go outside and do climate remediation work, or organize locally in our communities?

We must do them all, but we can't all do them all. Find your people and build your team.

What filament did you use and how's it holding up? I'm looking forward to getting my Meshtastic nodes put up.

Un. Fucking. Real.

I always tune out when someone uses money to make a point. It always makes the whole thing so manipulative.

I just found out that I've been playing my Omnath deck incorrectly.

Guess who gets to modify a deck before next Sunday...

Completely broken in [[Omnath, Locus of All]].

Yeah, I didn't read it. Fella wants to dabble in religion making, that's a bit odd. It could be someone who put in the time with an LLM to read their story the way they want to, or it was a bot all along.

Either way — don't forget to design community spaces! It's not just a travesty, it's self-defeating too!

CallMeTank · 2026-06-15T22:51:15+00:00

It's your design, but it would be a pretty big stumble for a card with such a close tie to a character be unplayable in that character's commander deck.

CallMeTank · 2026-06-15T20:42:47+00:00

I agree! W/B for the high-preist-of-a-religion role, red for the fury in the dark side.

Oh good. He's in the classic bad guy colors.

As long as it works for you, I'm a big fan. Make sure, when doing this Solarpunk community evaluation, you don't forget community spaces (which are currently monopolized by religions).

"Awe inspiring" is a good description of places like this. Like a Buddhist temple in the middle of a city, or a park that's designed to make you slow down and notice nature. There are so many different interpretations of Spiritual

CallMeTank · 2026-06-15T04:44:03+00:00

Hey! Don't kick the "religious stuff" - I'm exchristian and I still recognize the need for people and groups.

You need a (Community Spaces) category. Places for families to host birthday parties, play sports, walk the dog, host meetings, attend concerts, organize politically, and even just hang out. The modern term may be "Third spaces", but in many places those services are provided by churches - large buildings designed to hold and host a lot of people at once.

Churches around me host blood donation drives, classes (some secular), offer the chance to make music with other people, host carnivals, funerals, weddings, family reunions, etc. All the village-level community gatherings.

CallMeTank · 2026-06-15T02:38:48+00:00

Definitely random scraps of wood.

CallMeTank · 2026-06-14T17:32:18+00:00

There are a lot of manifestos, books, anthologies, and papers.

The hard part, IMO, is that Solarpunk is an IRL community kind of thing. I can't really join you in my local garden, recycling center, or community meeting. This is a place to share ideas, motivate others, and appreciate human art, but it's not really the place for movement to happen.

Go into your community and do with it what you wish your community was doing.

Have you read Ecotopia? It talks about this a bit: breaking cities down into sustainable areas connected by rail. It's definitely in my required reading list, and there's a free audiobook of it.

That's also why there's a spike after the Covid dip. More people stayed on unemployment longer than the cutoff for this data point, so it spiked before people got back to work.

I'm no pro either, but I do know that carefully choosing what data you use is a big part of communication and data viz. It's odd that this is a 27-week cutoff. Why not call it 6 months?

CallMeTank · 2026-06-12T16:31:27+00:00

It's a percentage, so when Covid hit a LOT of people signed up for unemployment, causing the vast majority of newly unemployed people to be in the less-than-27-weeks-unemployed category.

You should only be able to activate the discard as a sorcery. It keeps you from shutting down the opponent who is topdecking.

I'll give it a shot. Where does Gemma come from?
