I love how almost 20 years later, it still is shown around as a warning to people.

Fully agree with this, having known both parents who homeschooled their children, and the children who were homeschooled. To put it bluntly, I have seen the trauma that many of the children have in how they are controlled and the emotional abuse that their homeschooling did to them because it was their parents controlling every aspect of their life. Now, with the parents, I also shall say the harsh fact that the majority of the parents I know that want to homeschool are the types who want to decide for themselves what their "little genius" will become, creating an entitled image of what they will make their children become, and will not permit anything that isn't their image. The child is not allowed to actually develop.

And I'll say that as a parent.

I wish it would be possible, but the amount of work to convert would make it more difficult than not. Honestly, I would love to see more community centers made from the abandoned malls at least as a starting point, and then go from there.

Exactly! I will post pictures when I get them! And yeah, I am a nomadic heart, traveling is a big sign of enjoyment in my life.

I am excited! I was in Omaha for the 2017 Eclipse, and plan to be in Texas for this one, taking photos and enjoying the sight of it. It is a humbling sight, and from a spiritual perspective it is amazing for channeling energy through.

Thank you for sharing this. I admit, the nature of hopepunk was something I found recently through solarpunk and it kept going in my heart as an ideal to push for, especially in the work and life environment I am in.

That is even more worrying since that isn't normal for your spring season.

Sadly accurate given that I live in the bit of purple in Colorado, and it has been 70s here, which is normal for our spring season.

That is most interesting, you seem to have misunderstood where I specified that some of the clothing I've had for the past five to six years. Then again, it also appears you misunderstood where I specified that the clothing I've had to get rid of I give to a local segunda that primarily gives away the clothing to those who could use it, and would want it.

Did you perhaps, not read what I wrote, but merely judged me based off the initial sentence? If that is the truth, then it is alright, but please, do in the future state so first so I know what to expect of you.

I wish you well, MuchPineapples.

This is an interesting discussion point to look at, because for some people they seem to not understand that others, such as myself, genuinely love having many different styles and colors to choose from, as a way of self-expression.

I have clothing that is five to six years old, and also have clothing that is only a year or two, I will not deny. The clothes I had to get rid of where due to how much my body changed in the past five to six years, where I gave them to my local segunda where they give them or sell them for cheap. I got my use out of them. I even have a few outfits I've only worn so far once, because I've only had the one time so far, but when occasions arise I'll wear them again.

Of course! If you have any questions feel free to post around here too! There are a few different places to get seeds or plants from that are container friendly, which can help for something easy to work with.

Yep! they are also good because they are a deep root watering too! I used the ollas last years for my dynamite peppers and banana peppers, and they were wonderful honestly.
