today is a day for best effort and gentle improvement. writing a self-review for work always makes me want to unalive myself (even when I think I’m doing well???) so we’re not being real ambitious outside of getting that done (well, besides all the normal work nonsense).

hope I have time to paint this evening.

r/zerowaste has neat suggestions for less wasteful alternatives for party favors.

what do people do instead of leggings that’s not [[polyester]]?

I continue to want a lefty equivalent to the work of [[robert putnam]], looking at his new book. building little communities that aren’t toxic seems so, so important but I don’t trust the man

the critique of civilization doesn’t have to mean the ideological rejection of every historical social development over the course of the last 10 or 20,000 years. The critique of progress doesn’t mean that we need to return to a previous way of life or set about constructing some preconceived, idealized state of non-civilization. The critique of technology doesn’t mean that we can’t successfully work to eliminate only the most egregious forms of technological production, consumption and control first, while leaving the less intensive, less socially- and ecologically-destructive forms of technology for later transformation or elimination (while also, of course, attempting to minimize their alienating effects). What all this does mean is that it can be much more powerful to formulate a revolutionary position that won’t lend itself so readily to degeneration into ideology. And that primitivism, shorn of all its ideological proclivities, is better off with another name.
