@datapup@mastodon.social there are a lot, and no one is more qualified to deal with it or report on its effects or speak on its future than the workers who handle it directly. as is, all our waterways are extensions of the sewage system.

@datapup@mastodon.social that's not far off from an answer i'd give: people who know how to run parts of the infrastructure would do it, they would be self-managed and the actual shape of things would vary from place to place based on what people have collectively decided on (for example, the zapatistas use composting toilets instead of any sewage at all). the idea of an overarching vision for some post-rev society itself runs against anarchist principles since it's a top-down dictation of lives

@blacklemon67 @bleak found a more demonstrative vid but the shark is in obvious pain and i hate everyone involved in it

lol tfw it wasn't even noon before i'd heard about being my black self was harming someone who'd come into my space

@datapup@mastodon.social there can't be a cultural shift absent organization. not one that sticks. i'm of the mind now a revolution can't be real either, being an act of compelling people to acculturate through violence. also kropotkin (author of "mutual aid") did not fuck with the bolsheviks and predicted soviet russia's breakup and capitalist recuperation.

@literalham @datapup@mastodon.social yeah that's why i excluded ipv but hot damn what a difference it makes when leaving someone doesn't have to result in being homeless and/or starving.

@poopdoggyballs@mastodon.social cccrrrrreeeeeaaaaak

@bleak @bunnylyn sucks to be blasted by the sun's radiation even filtered as it is by distance, miles of atmosphere and a glass window

@poopdoggyballs@mastodon.social i'll head out once my body stops creaking at me. prolly be there ~noon

@poopdoggyballs@mastodon.social !!! you did it you messaged me three times! i feel warmer somehow

@modernmodron that's my secret, captain. i'm always getting mad at the comic industry.

@datapup@mastodon.social yeah, i get that it's a parable. the problem is in conflating the action of individuals acting alone without the influence of capitalism (why would anyone get more than they can eat or share around? they're gonna have rot and clutter) with industry that employs millions to its ends of perpetual growth. whether we're talking water, arable land, housing, food or anything else outside of interpersonal violence, there's no damage an individual can do that equals industry.
