Sadly I lack an account for the Atlantic, but I am going to assume that they were bought out.

I am sorry, I am confused, is this supposed to be a poem?
CounselingTechie Now • 100%
That may be what it was yeah. I remember also when Shiny Gold did come out a few others were released based off it too.

Sadly I do not, I apologize! This was back in 2004-2005. I just remember it was based off Firered and was done around the same time people made the global warming Firered version that I played a lot of.

I remember during the "eternity" in between Gen 3 and 4 sprite-work had started becoming popular as had tilemap-work, with the common words being decolors and recolors, decolors being taking the newer sprites and remaking them for an older style, while the recolors was the opposite direction. I remember on TRSrockin, Lugia's Den, and Mewthree's Domain learning tutorials on this, and even having contests for it.
Fast forward to 2006 and people were making romhacks of Johto in Firered and Ruby, but also trying to make Hoenn in Gold, and some even so far as to try making Johto in Red. It was not perfect, but it was enjoyable. I even got into the fun of it too, having a lot of fun making romhacks. One such I remember distinctly involved a Tyranitar on the main screen, and was based in Gen 2, and was honestly phenomenal to play.
Needless to say, the difference I found in my life between the games officially made, and the fangames was that the fangames were not limited by policies of the company, and were only limited by the technology, and the passion of the creator or sometimes creators. Today we live in a modern world, with such projects as Pokemon Red KEP truly exemplifying that spirit with the limitless power of the decomp projects and community.

This would be something I would love to see more places implement. Lights of a different frequency that is less destructive for wildlife, and is properly shielded to mitigate the damage. I should not be able to from 10 miles (16 Kilometers) see a massive lightshow that is the town I live in.

I have heard a lot of good about it, and am glad to hear that it is well-deserved. I may make time to watch it in time myself.

I agree there with the handmade part especially.
I spent the day and evening visiting a close friend, and one of the things that we did was that we shared gifts as usual. They had an idea that they had made for me given my lifestyle, being a jar full of little trinkets they've gotten, with them having a sigil and a spell placed upon it specifically for the purpose of strengthening connections. They called it a blessing jar. The idea of the jar is that I would take items from it, and share with another person to create a connection and foster friendship, and if they want to, they can share with me something they may have, and that is what got me thinking of this idea. A gathering with jars, each with items filled by the person. Maybe satchets of herbs and materials if that is you, or jars with items in them, or such, and freely exchanging in a group setting if can, else, just simply sharing what we have. Just an idea I had.

You put it best there, I live in a part of the United States that gets over 100 degrees during the summer time, which would challenge a cloak idea sadly

I did not know about that chart, I am going to have to download that and keep a copy of it around.
If there is not one, perhaps you could make one? I would love to learn in good detail how to make my own dyes, and work on dying clothing myself!

Something to appreciate with thoughts like this are the more natural dyes that come from plants, such as Iris Root, Black Walnut, Reed Flower, Hawthorn, so forth.

You call me a youth, I'm only 29, and have been biking at night since I was 19.

100%, the world is better at night. I am aware where I live there are more dangers, I have had to push myself to go as fast as I could in the past to get away from some people who were out at night, but the majority of the time I have found that the night-life is the best time to go out.

Both of what you said are good points as well. We are learning so much every day about the ocean depths, and as you said, how beautiful and commonplace bioluminescence and other forms of life exist down there.
CounselingTechie Now • 100%
That is fascinating to see actually. One of the things that I have been inspired to eventually do is set up an aquarium specifically with bioluminescent elements however I can, including the potential for those glo-fish that exist. The idea of shrimp for this would be interesting too.

That is fascinating to see with the style of the greenhouse! I wonder how feasible that may be for myself.

It is interesting to see them modifying the zir/zeer pot with additional parts, the outlet for example to pour water in.

I have never heard of this before, very interesting.

Thank you! Where I am we should get that still, so I think it will be good to experiment at least!
Hello everyone, As the title said, I am looking at starting some okra from seeds, but wanted to know if I am too late in the season to start, or if I am good for where I am? I will be growing the okra in large containers specifically, but I could do raised beds if that would be better.
Hello to everyone, So I am growing a set of plants this winter, soil in terracotta pots with some terracotta ollas for watering them. I have the plants sitting in the window, about 8-9 inches away from the pane itself to keep from getting too cold, and have the grow light over, so that way they are getting light in that cycle, the lights being on during the day time so that when the sun isn't as strong, the lights can help. I was thinking about whether or not I should get a heating mat for them as well, or a heating lamp to help keep them from being too cold. What would be your recommendations? The plants are as follow: Lemon balm, Orange Hat Tomatoes, Bush Pinto Beans, and Tom Thumb Lettuce. Any help would be appreciated! Thank you for reading!
As we are approaching the winter time with the solstice, I find myself wondering what to you is Lunarpunk in the winter time? What is something you add to the aesthetic in your eyes?
Hello to everyone. I admittedly am posting this to discuss difficulties that this week has been with me getting myself moving with the new changes to my routine, and the stress it has brought about for me. I work two full-time careers, one in the daytime from 10 am to 6 pm, the other in the nighttime from 11 pm to 7 am, the days offset to grant me 4 days where I work only one of the two offices and 3 days where I work both. I balance this with a biphasic sleep schedule, which while not the most ideal, has been one that works well for me. I also have other obligations in my life that I maintain, primarily for self-care and self-soothing to grant me reprieve from my stress in life, this is in the form of weekly D&D sessions with two groups of friends as a GM for both groups, a weekly meeting with my coven as a Pagan, a weekly support meeting for others in the local community, working out at the gym and biking, and also my garden which I tend to daily. I admit, my life is busy, and it is something I don't want, but it is due to circumstances out of my control the life I have going for me. I have had to recently as well though incorporate another part, specifically for furthering my career and making more of a future for myself, and this has been finishing out my degree. I have been doing online university classes for a few semesters now and normally have been able to maintain a good flow with my other life activities; however, this week started the Fall Semester and I find that I have been heavily struggling to get that flow going. I admittedly had to start late because I ended up having to work a lot of overtime over the course of a weekend due to issues with my night-job and had been too exhausted to do anything but sleep for the first two days of the semester. As this Sunday ends though, I find that I have fallen behind in what I was planning to have done by this point with my schedule, and am struggling with the stress of trying to figure out how to force it all to go so I can get the flow going, which is not always the best. It is admittedly what causes me to find myself feeling tired from the life I live. In the past I had it where once I got a good flow going it all would line up and move evenly, with me only having to go with it and have the feeling of less stress as it all lined up, knowing that on which days were which activities, giving me something to look forward to during the work day and work night.
About a month ago I had started the work to get solar panels set up at my house. They came by today to do the site survey and I am just happy to know that progress is being made slowly! They won't be able to do roof units, primarily due to what my house is, but there is space for ground units, and I am curious to hear what they suggest they do for it.
