- Comment on It is very therapeutic to garden, though. 5 days ago:
What can I say except that I hope you’re wrong about food production? The allotment system in the UK is a good example of this, and could be expanded on to good effect for the overall goal of more mutually supportive communities. Obviously we’re not going to turn every city into homesteaders, but reducing the imbalances in our economic systems is worthwhile.
As for CHAZ/CHOP, I find it more useful not to judge it based on whether an impromptu short-lived anarchistic community can govern itself perfectly during that chaotic moment in time (especially as police had every reason to try and subvert it - after all, they did lose that precinct), but based on its vision and the hope it gave people. It only lasted a short while, but hopefully the memory of it can live on as a hope for what could be, and as a part of the dialogue between communities and state forces going forward.

I recall the one you’re thinking of, but did not find it. This is a textbook case of how photography is just another aspect of journalism that can be very biased depending on what you decide to show and the context in which you place it.
For my part, isn’t it more interesting to know that it was started by a scholar of energy and sustainability who used the opportunity to promote gardening skills and raise awareness of the history and politics of land use rights?

For an entire community space without any centralised leadership that lasted about one calendar month, the garden looked alright:

Jokes aside, you’re right. Progress is never easy, fast, or guaranteed and we truly are standing on the shoulders of many, many non-giants and there is still so much work to do. It’s humbling and awesome to contemplate.

This crooked little vein of logic is what gave us sovereign citizens though, so be careful. Time may be an illusion and all, but schedules still exist.

- Comment on If presidential immunity is absolute.. 2 weeks ago:
This is the real problem on our hands. If you like the rule of law, there’s no winning scenario here no matter who comes out on top, because we’re already talking about abusing the law or changing it to suit political aims, rather than the operation of a coherent body of law being impartially carried out. In a sense the damage to our judicial norms and the larger issue of the credibility of an international rules-based order of at stake, and we’re just not winning that battle lately. Too many bad actors.
- Comment on Is it greener to just burn plastic? 2 weeks ago:
Freely admitted that it’s a badly thought out idea. I am a random person on the internet, idly chatting. I’m not at leisure to join you right now, if you’re needing more rigorous debate. I am speculating about technology that exists currently (wiki) but isn’t yet advanced enough for such an application.
- Comment on Is it greener to just burn plastic? 2 weeks ago:
Plasma arc gasification is very low emissions versus anything we currently do with it, but I would obviously prefer we just stop using plastic. Given how unlikely that is, the idea of plasma trucks going about eliminating the need for waste management infrastructure is at least fun enough to bring up conversationally.
- Comment on Is it greener to just burn plastic? 2 weeks ago:
I wish we could get a mobile plasma arc gasification truck that goes around turning rubbish into glass and hydrogen with no landfill, but until that day… Don’t burn it, just do your reasonable best to avoid buying it.

Science is basically journalism about the natural world. If ants have exposed themselves to a laughable scandal, it’s only a matter of time before we’ve nailed their asses to a wall
