Hi @clivethompson.bsky.social, I very much enjoyed your
article on Solarpunk in @motherjones.com.
I thought that it might be interesting to share an Origin Story with any of your readers who might be passing by.

I found this forgotten on one of my bookshelves, in pristine condition, so I probably skipped reading it in 1995, too busy with my one-year-old kid at the time. #brucesterling

Nel 210esimo anniversario della nascita di #AdaLovelace, un #film fantart-scientifico che, credo, non sia mai arrivato nelle sale italiane nonostante la presenza della sempre favolosa #TildaSwinton. Ed è bello che per omaggiare la "prima programmatrice", si […]

@bruces Snow Crash is full of gems like this one. Insights beyond, but yet seemingly inevitable and within grasp. The author, #BruceSterling, saw farther ahead than any other writer of that time. Read this book and you’ll be hooked on #speculative #fiction, hard #syfi or as I like to think […]

"A country without its own program-controlled switches is like one without an army" - is telling in another sense as well. I'm thinking about Hacker Crackdown here by #BruceSterling where switch boards were the backbone of telecom & early crèche of hacktivism.
