I started a new account because I decided to take a step back from world news, collapse, climate change, hunger, war, fascism and inequality. <br>In short less doom and gloom and a little bit of positive small scale projects that might also inspire or help others.</p><p>With this account I'll focus more on my day to day life, the things I do and make.</p><p>Of course I sometime still will post concerning subjects that provoke my rage or frustration. Sorry, it's not all moonshine and roses.</p><p>Having said that, I've a broad range of subjects that have my interest, so hopefully something useful will stick with you.</p><p>From my profile text:</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Collapse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Collapse</span></a> aware person, born @ 320 ppm CO2, world population 3.1 billion.</p><p>Fighting depression and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sadness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sadness</span></a> by doing some positive and small scale things that might help people.</p><p>Too many interests, like:<br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DIY" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DIY</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/SelfReliancy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SelfReliancy</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LowTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>LowTech</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/food" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>food</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fermentation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fermentation</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/preserving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>preserving</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReUse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReUse</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReCycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReCycle</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ReThink" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ReThink</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WoodWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>WoodWork</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/electronics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>electronics</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MicroControllers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MicroControllers</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Taoism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Taoism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Cycling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Cycling</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/reading" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>reading</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>photography</span></a></p><p>PRO: <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sharing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>sharing</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/local" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>local</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ecocentric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ecocentric</span></a><br>NO: <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/capitalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>capitalism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/states" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>states</span></a></p>
