Solarpunk Presents

In this Carbon Neutral Strike update, we talk about the authorities disappointing, accessibility plugins, planning Food MD, The Borrow, and we tell solarpunk stories of a new world that has adopted Austerity for a year, Borrowed Civic Services and a couple different ideas about A.I. or C.I. and the Borrow Bot! If you want more stories, hit us up on the Solarpunk Presents mastodon or patreon and we'll get very storytellery!

In this week's recap, I return to striking as much as possible outside of food and water after seeing Bluesky protesters who no doubt enriched oil companies when they gathered so what's the difference made? I think protests should be done from home. I carry on throughout the week working on an onboarding game for Fastfrwrd, pushing my creativity further, and exploring the ways in which I can improve my situation. We end the week with an issue requiring the authorities and an overview of the traumas of Jamaicans that lead us to being a bit 'Killy Killy'. Humans in stress positions. Trigger Warning: Mentions of sexual violence.

In this episode we talk with Dr. James Maskalyk, a Canadian emergency room doctor with international experience, about a solarpunk approach to medicine and what we can do to get there. You can find out more about Dr Maskalyk on his Substack, where he shares regular updates about his life journey and thoughts on a more human-centric approach to healthcare.

Possible Trigger Warning. In this episode I try to make a dancey house song, I go into more details about my past in Germany, I share a couple poems I wrote about the experience, and describe some of the issues I have faced since then when presented with a reality post a blood ritual using womb blood to ward off fascism and a possible timeline where it did not go unnoticed. Oh, and Harry Potter scar pains are real. It's a bit neurospicy but also slightly interesting.

In this Carbon Neutral Strike update from the past week, I go through my last week of rest while on medication from the strike to make music, write short stories for potential magazine publishing, make Solarpunk Presents episodes and reflect upon moments where you find soul mates both platonic and not, and queerness. Creative work is fun but it's work. Hopefully that comes across in this update!

In this episode we discuss the June poll through a thought experiment game Aleya made, played on Fastfrwrd.info, to simulate what a free revolution and a paid revolution might be like when juxtaposed, side by side, and compared for their benefits. This game is all about finding out whether or not a moneyless world can work, how it sounds and feels, and whether it can compete with the money, money, money world we know and, well, not love, but tolerate with mild socialist disdain? What do all you tanky, commie Solarpunks think? Do we throw out the dollar sign or what? Listen to find out the fate of the world and whether money wins or the dirty commie hippies win with a moneyless world that won't get up and go to work!

In this episode, I feel the effects of my Carbon Neutral Strike choices as opportunities go by and my personal life suffers. I create two short stories to try to get published and speak about that process and encourage people to make their own art. I share a couple songs I made this week and hopefully it shows all the ideas that have brought me to these songs and their lyrical material. I end up expressing my frustrations and the need I have for a world that is Solarpunk now, since Kingston is one of the first places to experience Climate Departure.

In this Carbon Neutral Strike update, I reflect on the past year of striking and what take-aways I have. We discuss the specifics, the situation that surrounded the carryings on of the strike, and the path forward. Would love to get some feedback on what you thought of the previous strike updates and what emotions you think your low impact lifestyle if you practice it would have brought about if you too made monologues like me! We talk about using gas everytime I smoke, my eco journey, cruel and unusual punishment, the plastic problem, 'becasue', getting paid less than $3 USD per hour, billionaires, fornication :p, why I left Germany, struggles in community and a plea to find out how to overcome these obstacles.
