I feel like I always think of solar punk as a macro thing where a lot has to change but there are still smaller wins we can implement, what have you been doing?

I believe that’s actually a modern perception and textiles were originally a male dominated field.

Yeah, fuck all the female dominated histories of all the various textile cultures around the world, someone on the internet told me it was men who probably did it first, and women obviously just copied them! So if men want to get into textiles again now they have every right to push out any reminder of women ever being involved!

Just to be clear, the above paragraph is sarcasm. Exasperated but unsurprised, sarcasm.
