DoomsdaysCW<p>What Can We Learn From the Birth of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NuclearEra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NuclearEra</span></a>?</p><p>By Eric Ross, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CommonDreams" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CommonDreams</span></a><br>August 3, 2025</p><p>"In recent months, nuclear weapons have reemerged in global headlines. Nuclear-armed rivals <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/India" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>India</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Pakistan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Pakistan</span></a> approached the brink of a full-scale war, a confrontation that could have become an extinction-level event, with the potential to claim up to 2 billion lives worldwide.</p><p>"The instability of a global order structured on nuclear apartheid has also come into sharp relief in the context of the recent attacks on <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Iran" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Iran</span></a> by <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Israel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Israel</span></a> and the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UnitedStates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>UnitedStates</span></a>. That system has entrenched a dangerous double standard, creating perverse incentives for the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/proliferation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>proliferation</span></a> of world-destroying weaponry, already possessed by nine countries. Many of those nations use their arsenals to exercise imperial impunity, while non-nuclear states increasingly feel compelled to pursue nuclear weapons in the name of national security and survival. </p><p>"Meanwhile, the largest nuclear powers show not the slightest signs of responsibility or restraint. The United States, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Russia</span></a>, and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/China" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>China</span></a> are investing heavily in the 'modernization' and expansion of their arsenals, fueling a renewed arms race. And that escalation comes amid growing global instability contributing to a Manichean world of antagonistic armed blocs, reminiscent of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ColdWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ColdWar</span></a> at its worst.</p><p>"The nuclear threat endangers not only global peace and security but the very continuity of the human species, not to speak of the simple survival of life on Earth. How, you might wonder, could we ever have arrived at such a precarious situation?</p><p>"The current crisis coincides with the 80th anniversary of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TrinityTest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TrinityTest</span></a>, the first detonation of an atomic weapon that would soon obliterate the Japanese cities of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Hiroshima" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Hiroshima</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Nagasaki" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Nagasaki</span></a> and so inaugurate the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AtomicAge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AtomicAge</span></a>. So many years later, it’s worth critically reassessing the decisions that conferred on humanity such a power of self-annihilation. After all, we continue to live with the fallout of the choices made (and not made), including those of the scientists who created the bomb. That history also serves as a reminder that alternative paths were available then and that another world remains possible today."</p><p>Read more:<br><a href="https://beyondnuclearinternational.org/2025/08/03/hiroshimas-history-lesson/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">beyondnuclearinternational.org</span><span class="invisible">/2025/08/03/hiroshimas-history-lesson/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNukes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNukes</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoWar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNuclearWeapons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNuclearWeapons</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NoNuclearWar" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NoNuclearWar</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AnotherWorldIsPossible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AnotherWorldIsPossible</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BeyondNuclear" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>BeyondNuclear</span></a></p>

Bonnie Wattceramic tree sculpture inspired by the Warren Woods in Michigan and the Somme woods north of Chicago. this is the moment of the year when trees really shine— their key roles (home or shelter or refuge for wild creatures, food for wild creatures, perfect place for lichen and moss to thrive, connecting and supporting their neighbor trees) are essential for a nature to thrive. it’s not very easy to see them all, but there are four creatures enjoying my tree. can you spot them all? <br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/Greenware?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Greenware</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/FiskFire?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#FiskFire</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/TreeArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TreeArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/NatureArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#NatureArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/CeramicArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CeramicArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/CeramicSculpture?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#CeramicSculpture</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/TreeCeramic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TreeCeramic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SpringCeramic?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SpringCeramic</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SpringArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SpringArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/AnimalArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AnimalArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/HandBuilding?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HandBuilding</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/HappyArt?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HappyArt</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/HugaTree?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#HugaTree</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/PlantATree?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#PlantATree</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ThankATree?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ThankATree</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SaveTheTrees?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SaveTheTrees</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/SaveThePlanet?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#SaveThePlanet</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/LoveYourMother?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#LoveYourMother</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/thankYourMother?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#thankYourMother</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/AnotherWorldIsPossible?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#AnotherWorldIsPossible</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/unmundodondequepanmuchosmundos?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#unmundodondequepanmuchosmundos</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/TreeFace?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TreeFace</a>

ungrimironfist<p>So some time ago someone on Mastodon posted that they're biking into Portugal from Spain. I just sent them a message saying hi, and that should they ever be passing into central rural Portugal, i offer a couch to crash, a warm shower and nice warm meals. This person is moving around all mainland europe, essentially with just their bike, a tent and a water bottle.</p><p>Some weeks later, this person who i had only exchanged with just a couple of direct msgs here on Mastodon , was resting for 2 nights at my house, having conversation and hanging out. Up to the exact moment we met we both barely knew each other's names, how we looked, what kind of people we were. I didn't even know the exact date and time they were coming.</p><p>It reminded me of the great days of when i used couchsurfing .com when it was still completely free. Circumstances changed since then, and i had stopped using it for a long time, and i believe couchsurfing.com is no longer completely free. But having a similar experience after so long, and hosting someone completely random without any transaction happening except pure faith in people's goodness, reminded me once again of the joys of opening your doors to randoms. 1/2</p><p><a href="https://todon.eu/tags/couchsurfing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>couchsurfing</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/travel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>travel</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/peoplekindness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>peoplekindness</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/hospitality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>hospitality</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/freehospitality" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>freehospitality</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/anotherworldispossible" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>anotherworldispossible</span></a> <a href="https://todon.eu/tags/randomthoughts" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>randomthoughts</span></a></p>

You just might be a <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/solarpunk" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>solarpunk</span></a>.</p><p>What started as an idea for a new approach to science fiction has evolved into a worldwide community.</p><p>"For practical inspiration, solarpunk looks to permaculture and Indigenous agriculture, sustainable architecture like Earthships and Arcosanti, as well as the maker movement and DIY culture. The future-focused inspiration has roots in the work of science fiction writers like Ursula K. Le Guin, Kim Stanley Robinson, and Octavia E. Butler, all of whom explore climate change, alternative economies, and equitable community in their work." </p><p>by Sarena Ulibarri Contributor<br>Apr 04, 2022 </p><p>"There are people all over the world who believe a just and sustainable world is possible. Maybe you’re one of them. Oh, the details of how that world works will vary according to our individual priorities and values, not to mention the physical and political climate of where we live. But we share the same vision: a future in which we’ve tackled the environmental and social justice issues of our time in a way that brings humanity, nature, and technology into harmony. We dream of green, community-centered cities; of high-tech, ethical farms; of pollution-free skies and plastic-free oceans. We dream of a world of abundance and inclusion, with equitable resource distribution and flattened hierarchies. We know we can’t achieve this by following the same path we’ve been walking; we must work together to blaze a new and better trail.</p><p>"We are artists and writers and musicians. We are activists and community organizers and urban planners. We are architects and scientists and engineers. We are gardeners and gamers and makers.</p><p>[...]</p><p>"Though we sometimes disagree about what a solarpunk world looks like, we are united by our vision of a future based on hope. But 'hope' is a tricky concept. It can be a catalyst for action, or a crutch supporting denial. Hiding from horrid realities or deluding ourselves that everything will turn out OK is not the type of hope solarpunks embrace. We know that climate change is here, and we acknowledge how bad it could get. We accept that tough times lie ahead, and imagine ways of adapting to those challenges with resilience, compassion, and equity. We’re rethinking how we live our lives and how we organize our societies, trying to reshape our systems so they serve the needs of the many instead of the wants of the few.
