But Trogdor is cool.

No, he’s just grating and obnoxious.

Just stop eating animals.

A “haha, I got an obscure funny meme” tattoo is a terrible idea, but you do you.

They are kitties, but very spicy.

I’m not a programmer and I’ve been dual booting for 25 years.

My post was essentially a knee-jerk response to a blog I read. It’s not really all that important, I just thought it would make for a entertaining post. And it was.

Techy without nature? I don’t know where you’re going with this.

What kind of society would you like?

Oh jeez, I’m not going to try and tackle that question right now, but I will say I’d like a much fairer one where people are taken care of.

I wonder what you think of art deco such as the Chrysler building.

I love Art Deco! The Chrysler building is beautiful, but I don’t think the world needs skyscrapers.

I can’t think of much I’d rather not do than live on a farm. I’m from the Midwest (Indiana) and it is a backwards, intolerant place full of backwards, intolerant people. They have tech and they still suck. I also hate gardening so that’s also in my bottom 10. The ideals of solarpunk sound nice, but I don’t know how well that would play out in reality. I probably wouldn’t like it.

I switched to DuckDuckGo for a few years, then went to Ecosia for a while, and now I’m using searx. I’m not sure how searx prioritises the results, so I’m still adjusting to it, but overall it works okay.

Yeah, thanks for clearing that up. I think I just got a bad impression from some posts I read and terms I may have misconstrued.

I think something about the style of writing or terms I’m not familiar with. Some of what I read on social media was off-putting, but it’s likely I misunderstood.

Thanks for the clarification!

Thanks for the clarification. Maybe it’s the way stuff is written that has given me a bad impression.

Because not everyone thinks the same way. I can appreciate the basic concept of solarpunk and would love to be able to say I’m all into it, but there are some important questions I personally need resolved. If I didn’t ask, I wouldn’t know. They may not be questions you have, however that doesn’t mean they’re not valid.

Yes, I’m picking up that “rugged individualist” energy. I did admit, I could be wrong. I guess I’m just looking for some sort of assurance that isn’t the case.

I didn’t write that. I wrote, “subsistence farming”.

Not at all. It was as much a challenge as a question. I suspect some push back, I was just hoping I’d learn something useful. What I’m picking up is that it’s not a fully formed set of ideals agreed upon by everyone. Which I suppose I shouldn’t expect among leftists anyway lol. Thanks for the response.

That wasn’t my intention and the quote is out of context (you left out “sounds like”) but if you want to be insulted, that’s your perogative .
