Solarpunk@slrpnk.net•Canvas 2024 is live! - Shall we try to draw the solarpunk logo?
2·2 years agoHonestly, this was a very cool experience. Being able to log in with a Lemmy account on the open Fediverse showed me a taste of what is possible. Now if we can figure out how to migrate accounts to different instances I’d honestly love that so much.

LGBTQ+•Virginia students walk-out protesting trans Outing policy
13·3 years agoIt kind of means women shouldn’t be taken seriously, because they’re just “silly little airheads” who just cook and clean.

People of Color•An appreciation post for Pixar's Elemental: one of the best stories about immigration and raising families in a new country
2·3 years agoI saw something similar happen with Strange New World. The marketing was bad but turns out it may have actually been a Solarpunk type of film, which actually would have been interesting to see.

People of Color•Inuktuk, the Inuit language
2·3 years agoWow, I just looked at this page, and it seems to be a pretty straightforward guide to how the Inuit language works! This was an interesting find to come across. Thanks for sharing this with us, and be sure to post more!
I disagree, although I can definitely see where you are coming from. Places like Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi are still dealing with outright racism in some areas. There was even astory I read about a town that had a white okigarchy which wouldn’t give its black resudents mayorship. The South, while seeming like it won’t change, will eventually have to. There are a lot of demographic shifts happening here that will force it to change some. Not to mention a growing labor movement, awareness of clinate change, and growing activism to address social issues that will increasingly put pressure on local and stare governments. So, yes, it will take time to correct the inertia of the status quo, but it’s possible.

87·3 years agoI hope this really hapoens. I’ve heard that video game development is a toxic jndustry to be in, from underpaid developers to strict dealines to meet. I really hope they will unionize!

Free and Open Source Software•What was your gateway product to open source?
6·3 years agoFor me, Blender was probably my very first introduction into FOSS. I was using it because it was free, but I also liked the concept behind having a useful software the people used everyday to make cool projects like movies and animated shows. I did a project on it in. What really got me down the rabbithole was Debian. I had come across it in computer class, and I really liked the interface. i did more research and came to love Debian for being a stable distro run by the community. From thereit’s history.

Anarchism@lemmy.dbzer0.com•A brief overview of the Socialist legacy of the 20th century
7·3 years agoI guess maybe the sobering part of this read was the fact that maybe revolution will take a lot longer than we thought…so maybe our focus should be on building alternate community institutions and forming connections instead of focusing on big events like protests.

3·3 years agoThese ones might be smaller, but:
- Meet The Robinsons
- Tomorrowland
- Me. Peabody and Sherman
- Everything, Everywhere, All At Once
I think these movies were really good because they actually moved you, in their own little way.
















Shameful, it’s so frustrating having to deal with these grifters.
