foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netto Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics.@slrpnk.net•Seeing fewer fireflies this year? Here’s why, and how you can help.3·3 days agoI’ve seen so few this year. Everything is so manicured around me and the landlord pays for landscaping/mowing/etc so I can’t keep the leaves out for them :C I’ll start keeping the porch light off at night though!
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netto Meta (slrpnk.net)@slrpnk.net•SLRPNK Community Discussion - July 2025English0·5 days agoI’d never thought about putting zines in a LFL. There’s one not even a block from my house so I think I’m gonna fill it up with some of these
This sounds really cool!! I love board games

I know in a lot of cultures women and trans men face a lot of shame for menstruating. I mean, even in the US people are still mocked with stuff like “oh you must be on your period,” boyfriends refuse to be seen buying pads, etc…
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netto zerowaste@slrpnk.net•Zerowaste Approach to Common 'Disposables'English0·9 days agoY’know, I’ve heard about people who do this and I really am fascinated. Do you strip naked every time? Are you standing outside the shower and doing a sort of twerk position to point your butt into the stream or do you properly get into the shower to do this?
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netOPto zerowaste@slrpnk.net•DIY Menstrual Pads - cut down on waste and save money0·9 days agothat’s what I was thinking! I wouldn’t really care what color my pads are as long as I’m sure that they’re clean.
Plus you could make some in black!
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netOPto zerowaste@slrpnk.net•DIY Menstrual Pads - cut down on waste and save money0·9 days agoYeah, sadly I have a tilted uterus so menstrual cups are… shall we say, ineffective. Some folks also don’t like to have anything inserted there which is valid.
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netto Buy it for Life@slrpnk.net•Looking for a decent portable music playerEnglish0·23 days agoHey there! My partner recently went through this whole process. They wanted something really sturdy and low-tech - for reference, they use a flip phone in regular life, so you get the idea. Specifically, the requirements were no touch screen, no Bluetooth, just load music files on there and be able to hit play and pause. They also had a fairly low budget.
We ended up choosing the Snowsky Mini. It’s light, pocket-sized, physical buttons, you can pop a micro SD in there to get up to 256GB of storage space. It sounds fantastic with a decent pair of earbuds.
I cannot speak to how repairable it is at the moment, and I will say that my partner is very careful with devices so I also can’t speak to how durable it is against someone clumsy like me. I’m also not a tech nerd so I can’t speak on altering hardware or software. But I can say that my partner loves it and has no complaints.
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netto Meta (slrpnk.net)@slrpnk.net•SLRPNK Community Discussion - June 2025English0·1 month agoDo you (or anyone else) know if we have a guide somewhere on apartment gardening? I’m really interested in growing some stuff to save money and y’know avoid eating imported fruits and vegetables if possible
foxymochakitten@slrpnk.netto Meta (slrpnk.net)@slrpnk.net•SLRPNK Community Discussion - June 2025English0·1 month agothanks for the suggestion of hacker spaces! Apparently there’s a group not far from where I live, I’m thinking I’ll swing by and check things out.
This song is so catchy!! Honestly, I feel like we all need to take a look at how we’re engaging with anarchy and trying to make the world a better place - I mean, the song is from 2007 but we’re still seeing people slammed for one reason or another by someone who thinks they’re “doing it right” and others aren’t. I notice even in myself I have the urge sometimes to criticize friends and prove just how Correct I am… but the truth is, good foundations for a new world are built on understanding and giving folks room to learn, not on criticizing people until they quit.
