And if I don't feel the wind and eat the fruits and smell the flowers... then am I even living ?

I know I post so sporadically here, but lil life update! :

graduated uni in May !!

broke up with my (now ex) bf but feel good about it

spent the summer in job hunting hell

got my first Big Girl job (well an internship) and started in September

still kinda burnt out from uni but recovering

Now that I’m a bit more settled in with my internship (which hopefully turns into a permanent position when my contract ends) I’m ready to start learning again! I’m looking at self-study courses again and also browsing masters programs which I plan to apply in the next year or two! yay exciting

I had two job interviews and a therapy session today. My planner is looking chaotic with all the lists I need right now to keep track of my progress and what I still need to accomplish. My wish for this week is to get at least one more interview or to hear back from a company. Fingers crossed everyone!

my main criticism of solarpunk is why isn’t it happening

[scottishwobbly]

it absolutely is and here’s the wiki we’re building

what exists in terms of community developed sustainable technology

but like any revolutionary social movement it requires active involvement to achieve the change you want to see. Here are some handy resources for getting more involved:

Food Not Lawns - project to help communities feed themselves without capitalism

Food Not Bombs - same idea as above but less emphasis on growing food

The Buy Nothing Project - community resource pooling to combat consumerism

Demand Utopia - Rojava solidarity & social ecology activism - speaking of which, The Internationalist Commune of Rojava have their Make Rojava Green Again project.

Also, if you want your solarpunk social media then start looking to the decentralised non corporate sunbeam city mastodon instance (blend of tumblr and twitter without your data being sold) where you’ll find shit tonnes of information on making food, growing things, building sustainable technology yourself etc being shared - like this $3 DIY solarpowered USB charger or this $30 wind turbine made largely from salvaged parts.

In terms of building online infrastructure to actively combat capitalism, using and helping to develop open-source, community run software & websites like the sunbeam city mastodon instance should be a priority. This is a good alternative to google for searching.

In terms of building real world solarpunk infrastructure as resistance to actively combat capitalism, the organisations linked above are honestly invaluable - especially Food Not Bombs. I’d also add the Industrial Workers of the World (a democratic workers’ union for anyone in the world without hiring/firing power) as well as tenants’ unions - like ACORN in the UK. Finally, find or start a community garden.

It wasn’t until recently that I realized not many people these days know about the Freecycle Network but it’s totally a thing and you should totally know about it.

I POSTET THIS HALF AN HOUR BEFORE MY JOB INTERVIEW AND I GOT THE JOB OH MY GOD

[studyblr]

perhaps you’ll find your perfect career at 41. maybe you will meet the love of your life at 53. at 75, you might discover something you have a great talent for. your favorite musician of all time? possibly, you first listen to them with 38. life doesn’t end with your twenties.

the fact that I have to be in the “right headspace” to do even the simplest tasks. absolutely humiliating

[thalassiosira]

I did really well this week

Civil procedural law would be quite nice if I just wouldn't have to know so much of it for my exams

Apparently it has really been 16 weeks since I last posted? Oops? Anyway, a new study area was opened at my school and on the weekends it’s really nice to sit and work there because it’s much less frequented then compared to during the week. 

Pro of Norwegian winter: SNOW!! Con of Norwegian winter (this one in specific, it wasn’t that bad last year): lots of ice on the sidewalks once the snow starts melting
