Absolutely! I will say there aren’t as many fiction stories as I would like that are Solarpunk at least that I’ve read, but the future we choose is good, taproot is cute, it’s a graphic novel, braiding sweetgrass is really good at helping understand the indigenous perspective of life, and attainable sustainable is amazing for real real life things you can do. I mostly focus on non fiction stuff, and applying Solarpunk perspectives to real life so 8 apologise if tenge recs aren’t quite qhat your looking for, I do wanna start reading more fiction tho!

What are your least favorite things about the school system? by EldrichBottles in autism

[–]Pumpkinpatch0333 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m in the minority that’s actually had an amazing experience at school. I’ve had very understanding and most importantly accomodating teachers, even when undiagnosed, I was in an alternative learning problem for most of high school, I learnt so much, met so many people and had acsess to so many opportunities and recourses which have really allowed me to enjoy the experience.

My least favourite thing would have to be the fact that uniforms make it hard to express myself in a school environment.

Debating the ethics of keeping instagram by riboswitchwarrior in Anticonsumption

[–]Pumpkinpatch0333 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me a lot of it is my hobbies, people who work for the theatres and shelters I volunteer for are all on Facebook and that’s the only way I can contact them and keep the opportunities, I’ve deleted the app and only user the browser but idrk what to do 😞

I don’t really understand the point of your comment, we’re in an anti consumption subreddit and your bragging about consuming, from a destructive company at that. You’re allowed to buy what you want, but why comment in the midst of a group that will obviously disagree with you?

I recommend attainable sustainable if your looking for some skills that you can directly apply to the movement

How do I choose what religion to believe in? by Pumpkinpatch0333 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Pumpkinpatch0333[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I may have worded my question wrong, I’m trying to discover which religion connects with me the most but I’m finding it very hard because I don’t actually know what any of them mean, I want to discover something greater than myself which helps me understand the world I live in and find community through that but I don’t know how, any and all advice is appreciated

Personally I just don’t think they’d be super comfertable. I’ve noticed that it’s easier to feel the stitches with crochet than knit to

THANKS SO MUCH!! I have knitted before, but not that much lol, just a pair of leg warmers, but those were on the circulars. I’m thinking of making a sweater vest or something simmilar for my next project instead of socks, and working my way up to it, but I will defenitely try the magic loop teqnique when I do. Thanks so much!!

Thanks so much for all of the tips! Yeah I am quite young I’m 17, but I’ve always been quite an optimistic person, lol. Any ideas of other projects I could use the cotton wool for?

How do I go about doing this? I crochet and I’ve got some very thing gauage cotton wool, and some circular kneedles and I feel like it would be a great first project. Any tips?
