As a species that is addicted to the new, it almost feels like we are going through some kind of withdrawal, desperately clawing for a short term fix (#AI). Technology was always going to plateau, as was popular culture. It gets harder over time to make compelling film, rousing literature, and cutting comedy. There are so many talented, trained humans around the world that competition to be an artist has never been more intense but opportunity to be original is much smaller due to the work of everyone that has come before. Our tastes are so disparate that finding common ground culturally has become more difficult, leading to more rifts and a smaller economy of innovation. At the same time, algorithyms dominate the dispersal and creation of #art so that a few powerful voices drown out the others. None of this is to say that there isn&#39;t plenty of room for artistic innovation in a countercultural sense, especially from non-Western areas of the world. But at some time we are going to run low on the novel and have to deal with the fact that we need to be able to be happy with a hell of a lot less &#39;shiny&#39; than we are used to having. In this world I see folk art as regaining significance as offline local communities become more essential and we learn to get back to the basics of humanity. #luddism #SolarPunk 2025-07-26T21:58:40Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszg7vnkt8gaw6t0wa8j8g29dld0eckhucvj2qhd2c6nyrhc9huuegzyq0exguy8a8trcjvxx562dhq8gt0pc523nmwhtzgjlt3gtnr8u4q58sdraw I came out to someone outside of my new #queer circle, who knew me from before times, for the first time today and it was glorious. They are such a lovely person and I couldn&#39;t have picked a better person to share with. I wasn&#39;t even planning on doing it but when it happened I knew it was right. They were joyful and made me feel joyful which is exactly how it should be. I timed it so that immediately after I went to my queer #knitting #Crochet group and got to share that joy with them &lt;3. Its such a great intersectional group, who are all about accessibility so unlike in the past I don&#39;t feel like my #disability makes me an outsider. And I don&#39;t feel like I&#39;m not &#39;queer enough&#39;, which I worry about. Its hard to believe given how isolated I was six months ago that I&#39;m starting to feel like I have a community. &lt;3 #QueerJoy #LGBTQIA 2025-07-25T00:08:26Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsgen3e2hw4mna65avx6mrvc3ehylkv92e0fvkwrr2338s0htefp6qzyq0exguy8a8trcjvxx562dhq8gt0pc523nmwhtzgjlt3gtnr8u4q5xvz99v Closeup photo of Culver&#39;s Root, a woodland-prairie edge generalist plant that doesn&#39;t like too much disturbance. Can be a good indicator of a quality restoration in my area and does well in gardens. It produces hundreds of tiny seeds that are easy to collect and scatter, and it is a great plant for #insects. #Gardening #RestorationEcology #Bloomscrolling #AltText #Photography<br/> <img src="https://media.beige.party/media_attachments/files/114/820/315/124/515/076/original/191e1cd99a30346f.jpg"> <br/> 2025-07-09T00:51:05Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszy5s29t4fsxk8zhnxh0cf5y400jsua5g68wtwmzk9f0ds2d9w3yqzyq0exguy8a8trcjvxx562dhq8gt0pc523nmwhtzgjlt3gtnr8u4q5u2wk6z Old growth 💚🌿 #ThickTrunkTuesday<br/> <img src="https://media.beige.party/media_attachments/files/114/379/962/073/518/325/original/4a195f3e3afd8069.jpg"> <br/> 2025-04-22T13:15:48Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqszclse8cel5qls5pzcthx9fdt97nmf365d20vr54lhvtgnzsh03xgzyq0exguy8a8trcjvxx562dhq8gt0pc523nmwhtzgjlt3gtnr8u4q5y9md6h Bloodroot opening 💚 #photography #bloomscrolling #wildflowers<br/> <img src="https://media.beige.party/media_attachments/files/114/312/486/789/966/513/original/97e7d0f03f5f29f5.jpg"> <br/> 2025-04-10T13:15:51Z https://nostr.now/nevent1qqsw8pwaq9xl5mz777nf3k8pxxx6h4wlk7lkv8dvahqxvtjp9hkx03czyq0exguy8a8trcjvxx562dhq8gt0pc523nmwhtzgjlt3gtnr8u4q5e3hn7f Give me the imperfect.
