++++ 11/1/2022 ++++ Update: I had removed some stuff that used to be on the gopher hole before writing this manifesto. I now see this needed to be pointed out for it to make any sense. --- I came here to gopher and sdf for the solar punk. Then mission creep got me. I wanted to provide to this space, hoping to make it just a little bit more home, but that got me on back on a content-production treadmill. But after a day of playing hooky, going hiking and examining my life with the perspective such things can bring, I realized that I do not want to disclose like I am on social media. We do NOT need to "open the komono" on my thought processes. What we *could* use is more experience in getting used to a world of less. That's the theme I am going to be writing on here. Other explorations can go to other places, in particular the text files I use as a journal. But from now on, when I am in this space, I will try to be the solar (or junk) punk I want to see in the world. -- This work is hereby in the public domain. Do what you want with it.
