  1. Easing back into #DoomAndGloom... The #AQI is awful here in #Maine /#NorthernNewEngland today... And it's predicted to be worse tomorrow! I did find that wearing a PM 2.5 filter mask is helping when I'm outside. When I forgot to wear a mask, I couldn't stay outside very long!

  2. Alrighty then. Re-posting #SolarPunkSunday posts from earlier today before easing back into the #DoomAndGloom posts. Thanks to everyone who boosted the signal! I hope to see more SPS posts next Sunday!

    TY to @MaQuest, @jblue and @BrambleBearGrrrauwling !

  3. One more #SolarPunkSunday article, as I transition back into the #DoomAndGloom posts. Though first, more gardening and some dinner (wild rice and greens, and salmon -- a rare treat)!.

    Thanks to everyone who posted and boosted, including @MaQuest and @BrambleBearGrrrauwling . We'll back again next week. I have more #rewilding articles to post, and more about #foodsoverignty and of course #RightToRepair, #RepairCafes, etc.!

  4. Easing my way back into the #Doomposting (and boy, there's a lot of #DoomAndGloom out there). I did spend some quality time at the ##MétisOfMaine #PowWow today, and made some new friends -- including a fellow Two-Spirit person, who recognized that I, too, was one. We talked about what to wear when dancing (they were wearing both a ribbon shirt and a ribbon skirt). I mentioned that I felt called to wear a ribbon shirt (with pants), but also use a shawl -- because as a Diindiisi (Ojibwe word for "Blue Jay"), I needed wings when dancing. They totally understood where I was coming from. Hung out with a talented seamstress (a different one than the one who made my shawl), and talked to her about decorating my shawl with Blue Jay colors, along with the Métis symbol, and she should have the work done by the next PowWow. Psyched!

  5. So, I'll spend a bit of time on #SolarPunkSunday today. Working on some rainy day projects around the house, so there might be some gaps between posts. Back to the #DoomAndGloom after 4 or 5pm EDT!

  6. So, that's about it for this week's #SolarPunkSunday. Transitioning to some articles about #Degrowth and #AntiCapitalism before getting back into full-on #DoomPosting (and boy there's a lot of #DoomAndGloom out there). Thanks to everyone who boosted my posts, and chimed in!

  7. Oh, so much #DoomAndGloom. But it will have to wait for a few hours because now it's time for #SolarPunkSunday !

  10. Buckle up everyone - it's going to be a rough few years ahead if US election predictions come to pass.

    Ah well. It's time the rest of the world stopped relying on the US in diplomacy, trade, defense, commerce, currency etc. We're facing bigger problems in coming decades than a fascist USA.

    It's not the end of civilisation yet. (The beginning of the end of civilisation probably started a while ago.)

  11. Quitting social media (mostly)

    About a month ago, I stopped using almost all of my social media (with the exception of Instagram). It’s been an interesting month and I still have mixed feelings about it.

    I’ve been using Twitter since around 2008, so I’ve been there since its early days. I stopped using Twitter actively a little bit before it was acquired by the Muskrat, and once that happened, I deactivated my account […]

  12. Back to my usual #DoomAndGloom posts. Soooo... Has anyone considered that maybe some of the #algae exposed to #radioactivity *might* be mutating? That's *not* a good thing...

    Absorption of #Radionuclides from the #Fukushima Nuclear Accident by a Novel #AlgalStrain

    Hiroki Shimura, et al.
    September 12, 2012

    "Here we describe the accumulation of water-soluble #radionuclides released by nuclear reactors by a novel [NEW] strain of alga. The newly discovered green microalgae, Parachlorella sp. binos (Binos) has a thick alginate-containing extracellular matrix and abundant chloroplasts. When this strain was cultured with radioiodine, a light-dependent uptake of radioiodine was observed."

  13. It is scary how fast cyberattacks have evolved as a weapon of war. 2022 saw a large-scale cyberattack preceding the Russian attack on Ukraine. Now, Iranian hacker groups are targeting water supplies around the world for utilizing Israeli technology.

  14. gloom huckstering through the grapevines
    fearmongering makes the headlines
    poisoning minds as beers and wines
    exploiting their rational shrines

    despairing dives in the smoulders
    remaining passive beholders
    or to the wheel putting shoulders
    clear choice for hope candleholders

  15. Headache and tiredness.
    The boss doing an ad hoc meeting to announce things are tough and there might be some change, without saying more.
    I want today to be over!
