Since I keep mentioning my Big #solarpunk Essay quite often, I made a new shortcut link to it:

Bicycle caravan travelling along dusty plains road, from nowhere to nowhere. Three oldtimers in a postapo-hippie-tourist outfit against a fuzzy backdrop of a dilapidated settlement.
Three rugged outdoor persons sitting in front of a cabin with two vigilant dogs. A vague postapo feeling, perhaps just before they hit the road. A madonna-style picture of a young mother with child, vaguely solarpunk-styled, against a backdrop of hazy skyscrapers and space structures, forming a kin of halo around their heads.



From Solarpunk to Fedipunk - the Fediverse needs its own transformative narrative!

If you use #AI to make AI art or writings about #Solarpunk to share wildly, then you are part of the problem.

Stop using capitalist spam tools to push out real artists and writers and claim you're doing it for a #Solarpunk world. The amount of carbon dioxide and other pollution being released to train and maintain AI is enormous and contributing to the climate change drivers.

AI is just another scam by tech bro investors who wanted another bubble to burst so they can take the profits and run, while the rest of us have to deal with the consequences of endless fucking SPAM in all arenas of life.

So using AI to make AI art or AI anything for #Solarpunk projects is contributing to the very problem that Solarpunk wants to address.

Stop it.

Instead, come to us creative folks and work with us to use our creative works in the project. And be willing to compensate us because unlike AI, we actually need to eat. If you're truly committed to a Solarpunk world, this would be built into your praxis anyway. We ought to be caring for each other so that no one is left behind.

Thanks for reading.

My first attempt at microfiction is a bit long for tooting, so I've posted it on my website.

It's about a Librarian in a very special library.

The Hungarian Entomological Society recently posted this image highlighting the importance of diverse yards and the decline in insect diversity when shifting to monoculture

Top a pen with flowers and a garden. Many bugs. Middle a lawn with a garden. Some bugs. Bottom a plain lawn. Only flies.


Time for another #introduction. My name is Chris Dolunt (he/him).

I live in #Michigan. I'm a #solarpunk (recovering #cyberpunk) focused on community support and #climate action.

I work in #library technology, building digital archives to support academic research.

I write #ttrpgs for fun. I wrote "Nyambe" for d20, "Rippers" for #SavageWorlds, and I'm a canon NPC (Kargas Dolunt) in Dave Arneson's Blackmoor. I've been nominated for (and lost) the Diana Jones, Origins, and Ennie awards.
