Reddit already looks different for me

Reply in thread

It's astounding how consensus can be achieved on certain topics. Our planet is burning, yet we struggle to come together and agree on the urgent need to take action. However, when it comes to a change in Reddit's API plan, we suddenly find ourselves capable of mobilizing en masse for a common cause. Humans are truly peculiar beings.

A Solarpunk Manifesto

Reply in thread

Why don't we try to put the manifesto on a git platform and let the people propose changes, reviewed by the people themselves? It could be a amazing way to create debates an to let the people decide what solarpunk is.

A Solarpunk Manifesto

Reply in thread

personally I would give more focus to the core like sustainability, anti-capitalism, use of technology, in the future but also in the present. But I don't have actually anything concrete to propose. It was just an Idea to generate more discussions about what solarpunk is and to democratise the manifesto. You're right. The Wiki looks actually a more accessible place.

È morto Silvio Berlusconi

wow, era palese che sarebbe successo da un momento all'altro vista l'età e lo stato di salute, ma leggere la notizia è stata una botta. Tutta la mia vita politica e il mio attivismo politico (e credo quello di tutti quelli nati negli anni 90) ha girato attorno alla sua figura.

Eating the bugs?

Reply in thread

I hope you don't feel triggered by my question, I am genuinely curious, I swear. No judgment. Here my question: since bugs are part of this planet's life like all other life forms, don't you think that there is something wrong being so triggered from bugs?

I mean, it's normal to respect or to feel a kind of repulsion to some kind of insects, it is natural instinct that saved us from death, but being grossed by bugs in general sounds a bit too much to me.

I had a kind of phobia but when I realized that we are all part of the life on this planet, insects included, than something changed in me. I do not love insects, but I definitely do not feel reputation or fear anymore. I feel respect for some kind of insects (big spyders for example) and I try to build biodiversity in my garden for some others.

Sorry, I don't want to bother you or judge you, is it totally ok the way you are. I just kind of saw myself some years ago in our emotional answer.

Of course you can ignore this comment and it will be perfectly fine :)

Pompei continua a stupire: scoperto un nuovo affresco che ritrae una pizza

Nello stesso articolo ma sul guardian, dicono che sembra ci sia un frutto che sembra un ananas (ovviamente impossibile e lo confermano anche all'interno dell'articolo) e per questo intervistano sorbillo che prima spiega che si possono mettere dei frutti sulla pizza "dolce", ma quando il giornalista chiede dell'ananas lui risponde "NO! NOI FACCIAMO SOLO LA PIZZA TRADIZIONALE!!!!11!!1!1!" 🤣

Edit: Ecco il link https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/jun/27/pompeii-fresco-find-possibly-depicts-2000-year-old-form-of-pizza
