Wind: A Solarpunk Short Film
I'm making a new short film, which I'll release on my PeerTube channel. It is a final target practice for a feature film (titled Big Tree) that I intend to shoot next year, themed on direct democracy in a near-future solarpunk world.Dilman Dila
»Schweiz plant Überwachung schlimmer als die USA:
Die Revision des Schweizer Überwachungsgesetzes VÜPF würde sich direkt gegen VPN- und verschlüsselte Chat- und E-Mail-Anbieter mit Sitz in der Schweiz richten.«
Ja dem ist so und doch ist dies den meisten Scheizer*innen nicht mal im Ansatz bewusst, denn anscheinend hat ja niemensch was zu verbergen.

I'm making a film in the #solarpunk genre, live action (rather than animation) set in the near future for I want to imagine practical alternatives to capitalism. Given recent events in #us and other places battling fascism, I envision a world where direct democracy is possible, so no central governments, politicians, or police/military. Help me make it!

On embracing solarpunk in my stories
I discuss the various genres that I work in, including Africanfuturism, afrofuturism, and solarpunk, and why I'm embracing the later as my preferred genre.Dilman Dila
Due to what happened to #us and other places, we must discuss the future of governance. This film is my take on the topic; decolonize leadership and establish democracies that serve people rather than politicians and the rich. The story will perhaps inspire questions on why power resides only in the hands of a few dangerous buffoons. Help me tell it.
Boost, and donate if you can!

Apparently everyone is a little worried about what the #Trump #Junta is planning regarding its force buildup in the #carribbean. Will they invade #Venezuela or not?
And while I can't answer this, I know at least what the #US #military, especially the #navy, is worried about:
Having to EVER AGAIN endure a defeat to #Huthi type forces, who are supported by regional illicit trade networks.
So they want to show the world, they can solve this type of problem. Somewhere.

It's gonna take a looot longer to restore everything the dictator has broken I know, but let's hope MAGA will become such a dirty word like nazi's because they're the same thing

Interesting ToI blog post:
"The #US is experiencing an identity crisis, with a deep #partisan divide over #immigration, #culture, and national #history. Some view growing #diversity as a threat, while others see it as a source of strength.
And the #Jewish Question: For #Jews, these issues are multi-fold. Beyond this shared national experience, #America’s Jews are being negatively impacted by the #Hamas #War and the onslaught of #antiSemitic behaviors, generating additional levels of anxiety and fear. Indeed, for the first time in our lives, we are encountering Jewish hate. The upending of our sense of #security as Jews has shaken us, contributing to a feeling of #political homelessness.
In this moment #Americans remain uncertain about the state of this union and Jews find themselves devoid a sense of security."

The #explosion of this #Tennessee blasting material factory is a strange incident.
Now of course the #US is known to be terrible at #IndustrialSafety, there have been a lot of major accidents in recent years. So that is absolutely a possibility here.
