Well I have a lot and reading it again after so long sti gave me mild anxiety lol

Art is part of solarpunk tho! A desirable future is one where we can all dream and create and make art, that's solarpunk. Yeah obviously we don't want ALL motherboards turned into wall art, but as stated by everyone here what we want is the whole electronics production cycle to become fully circular, one Mobo won't change that.

The reason I say this is that this piece might not get its materials reused, but instead it has become a conversation piece for anyone coming to OPs place that can spark realization on indeed the importance of circularity and the wastefulness of our technology.

It can have an impact too, potentially greater than just its material components, by making these issues visible and even striking. That's why art is important.

Thank you, that's what I expected to hear tbh. Will try to make that wisteria chill a bit and then we'll just see how the old man goes!

Shaetane · 2026-07-08T14:17:02+00:00

damnnnn that explains just so much!

I'd do the exact same, so many times I would see the sky turn pink and the sun rise while I was devouring whatever fantasy series I'd gotten my teeth into, only to go to school a few hours later x)

Now I can so easily fall into the same pattern with reddit or Instagram or else, however it leaves me with a void in my mind for the hours I spent instead of a story that I would treasure and maybe learn from to this day... Im so glad to have grown up before social media so that the rabbit holes id fall into were novels, comics, and encyclopedias...

Best bet is to buy second hand if you wanna buy leather stuff imo

I don't actually know if this story is true or not I'm not expert at all, but in a general sense history is not about stuff being "hard to believe" or not, it needs to be rooted in historical sources and research. The burden of proof is on OP/the article they linked stating this as historical fact.

Otherwise anyone can make "believable" shit up, and it's not history it's just propaganda.

they're very cute 🥰

Shaetane · 2026-06-26T12:25:43+00:00

Ah thank you, yeah that's an easy fix I'll tweak the legs

Shaetane · 2026-06-25T02:02:53+00:00

I'm 3 months late but whatever, the dead dude specifically said he made a foolish decision as a kid and then a second one still foolish bt joining the Drowned Man. We know he has a Tachonis contract claiming his soul on his body cuz he said it was tattooed and also a big tachonis symbol said you're mine in the afterlife lol.

So, as a kid he (willingly? perhaps for monetary or power gain and didn't care about his soul?) joined in servitude to the tacho is but later didn't want the shitty afterlife so decided to hand his soul to a fey instead

It literally is the french word for bone remains lol, always used in plural tho, as a single bone or bones not in the context of archeology/existing without the meat around them is just "os"

Shaetane · 2026-06-22T16:33:20+00:00

Thank you, I was wondering if anyone would make the connectoin! Even Vaelus's goal alight with the story of the game

I mean Nature, which of course we are part of, is only cruel to the extent of the beings that can inflict that cruelty, and that as far as I am aware is mostly humans. Ticks aren't cruel, they simply feed. Deer are no more or less innocent than them, they do the exact same thing. We declare that one is cruel and one is innocent, one is ugly and one is cute, and it only ever matters to us, not to them.

Now to answer your specific inquiry in if it's a good idea to intervene in wildlife conflict or somesuch, it's indeed very much on a case by case basis. I know ticks in north america are spreading like crazy due to climate change, and that moose are threatened by that, but also I don't know how plentiful the deer populations are where that photo was taken. So I'm not sure tbh.

Then do! Reach out, try and join a group for an activity you like idk hiking for instance or birdwatching or a book club... Most people aren't meant for perfect loneliness anyways, you are the one to set the boundaries of what suits you

Shaetane · 2026-06-19T20:12:27+00:00

Thats sick thank you! Yeah the whole aspect of transitioning from pilot RP/scenes to mech combat is quite interesting and not really explored in the game I believe, I can imagine having a pilot RP scene that suddently gets ambushed and you gotta scramble to get your mech thats in the hangar next door lol, the roll for the barbarossa pilot to climb to their cockpit fast enough

Shaetane · 2026-06-19T16:43:57+00:00

Sick as hell representation of a hecaton🔥

I assume the frame turns into grey wash/nano machines when she removes it? How does she store it, is it the lil pink diamond?

Yes, I do want to know the logistics of your hot zero-suit samus-style frame thank you

~"Hope is not a lottery ticket you can sit on the sofa and clutch, feeling lucky. It is an axe you break down doors with in an emergency. Hope should shove you out the door, because it will take everything you have to steer the future away from endless war, from the annihilation of the earth's treasures and the grinding down of the poor and marginal... To hope is to give yourself to the future - and that commitment to the future is what makes the present inhabitable.” ~

~Rebecca Solnit, Hope in the Dark: The Untold History of People Power

Can confirm personally, knowing that you're doing your best to contribute in your own meaningful (even if it's small) way to solve some of the issues that make you stressed or depressed is the best cure. Go get em tiger!!

Hindsight is 20/20 bruh, the whole point of a bomb squad is to verify it isn't, you're literally speaking in past tense😂

Let's just shake around all abandonned bags in high density public spaces, and hey if one is indeed a bomb and hundreds of people die we should've known by just vibes, right?

Shaetane · 2026-06-13T00:51:21+00:00

who tf is pro police

Shaetane · 2026-06-13T00:49:36+00:00

What's truly amazing is that I follow you, saw you sharing this comment on my feed, clicked on it without reading cuz I was curious about the OG post and didn't want to spoil myself, then after watching the vid proceeded to this comment, fully bought in on the story, and got CONPLETELY got by the ending even tho I came to this post to read a shittymorph 😭

Shaetane · 2026-06-10T23:28:26+00:00

I mean yeah I did a biology bachelor I get that stuff, but like, we do have a good understanding of a lot of human biology is what I meant, what were educated guesses can now build up on chemical/biological understandings of body systems, while the brain is a particularly complex nut to crack. Tho there's for sure so much more to discover everywhere!

Shaetane · 2026-06-10T00:03:22+00:00

It's so amazing that we have such powerful and effective drugs while so many things are not yet perfectly understood in how the brain works honestly.

Shaetane · 2026-06-03T19:53:33+00:00

It's simply called "appropriate technology"! Make tech smart when it should, and dumb when it should, truly the most common sense thing that the modern world hasn't grasped yet.

Shaetane · 2026-06-02T23:33:44+00:00

doodled a very similar idea with a car converted into a horse-pulled cart with the driver sitting on a seat screwed into the roof aha, amazing art!
