I would rather think games in a way we think about books or other works of art. Preserving games for generations to come is to give them a chance to experience them as well. We still have books around whose authors have died long time ago.
This is superb! I, too, love the postapocalyptic sceneries.
I have no hope, that the system will change in time for us or those who come after us; humans and other walks of life. But I still do things and make choices, that mitigate my impact on the planet. Not because I think I can steer us away from this path, but because it is the right thing to do. I am morally obligated to do it even if the result does not change and I take a weak solace in that fact. And of course it always matters whether we hit 3, 4, 5 or 8 degrees above pre-industrial mean to other evolutions of life.
350 cats is a lot of cats, but hey, we all have our thing.
Because humans are storytellers, not scientist by nature. Better (and not necessary for plebeians) story, bigger impact. For example religions or money have diminished our freedom-loving characteristics to almost none-existence, but they sure are good concepts to knit us together to form a society.
I dream very often of being someone else. No limits on sex, sexuality or age. Not too long ago I dreamt I was a young, bisexual man with bear-like proportions, though the sexual relations were an afterthought in a highly weird story about survival.
I am a middle aged woman, but shit it felt good in the morning to feel that strong.
PS2, you never forget your first love.
I was merely implying that I am not in the position to verify whether these are true or not, but domestic demand for goods in China dropped significantly during and after covid. The reason for this is highly speculated. China has also been reporting bloated population numbers, which cannot be true with the historical fertily numbers.
There has been rumours, that the chinese population has declined by hundreds of millions during covid. This also could be a contributing fact to the decline of domestic demand.
A kindred spirit, I too change all linen, towels, teatowels on a Sunday. I love the feeling of crisp linen and rough towels.
I have sets of “three” of everything. One set in use, one set in the laundry and one set in the closet. I only buy new things if visible frayed and no point trying to mend.
Yes. I, in fact, do enjoy crafting in pyjamas whilst gulping down a cup of coffee and some cookies.
Last book: Perfume: The story of a murderer by Patrick Süskind. I ravaged through it quite fast and enjoyed the descriptive writing style immensely. It’s supposedly a book with many intresting layers, but I loved as a novel about world of smell.
Currently: Though I tend to read several at the time depending on my mood, my main book is Breaking together: A freedom-loving response to collapse by Jem Bendell. I work with environmental stuff and I feel like we are past the point where ecological modernisation is a answer to all of our woes. It is well-written book and you can download it for free.
Had some car trouble :(
Yeah, I like to receive and give food gifts. Or I tend to give something I made myself, for example knitted socks or baked goods.
