...and not just the book cover. I highly recommend @renanbernardo.com 's #solarpunk Different Kinds of Defiance! It's among other wonderful recommendations of #climate fiction and diverse works on my site.

go #solarpunk! (And check out this awesome pod + lots of resources brightgreenfutures.wtf ) #hope #justice #resilience

thank you for the reporting! I love his work in the world. anti-#technofascist

What a great idea! #solarpunk

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

White. Hot. Rage.

Minneapolis. Rage and tears.

Let our rage and tears add resilience and strength to all those on the front lines of the horror and harm caused by tRump and the like...in the US and globally.

Sending support--tangible and not--from my location (I'm not near MN).

Say it loud: This is what democracy looks like!

If you live in Hakeem Jeffries district can you please call him and ask how many more Minnesotans need to die before he takes meaningful action to abolish ICE?

Glad The Working's coven kept you company while sick! And thank you for reading!

Yes, please continue to support Mimi!

... and Ness even won a Nebula for self-pubbed work! @vriccithode.bsky.social

Nonbinary Thinking is Solarpunk...and Essential ⋆ BrightFlame Binaries create harm. I explore the nonbinary of dystopia and hopeful fiction ... and much more in this article.

New blog about the #nonbinary of dystopia and #hope.

Plus, I mentioned YK Hong's recent article about rejecting the binaries of Empire, fascists, colonizers.

And, of course, #solarpunk

An important panel on #activism happening now. Lovely to "meet" the panelists I don't already know. And good followup to our earlier #solarpunk panel.

Thank you @britfantasysoc.bsky.social for hosting the #writing and Social #Justice event today.

Wonderful #solarpunk discussion today. Thank you to @yenooi.bsky.social for facilitating. And @renanbernardo.com Francesco Verso and Wren James for joining us.

What a great panel! Glad to be "live" with you today!

Wonderful! Do you know if it's in smashwords or other (non-techbros) outlets?

and Empire.

I highly recommend this article that counters binary thinking, which is a tool of Empire. Choose to subvert the binary.

I won’t be working myself until Monday, but in the meantime I’m fixing to enjoy @brightflame.bsky.social’s #solarpunk novel “The Working” which has been sitting in my TBR pile for too long. Hopefully it’s optimism will put me in a good back-to-work-you-lazy-slacker frame of mind. :-) #BookSky

Thanks for reading! Enjoy!
