I discovered @streetcomplete some time ago and began answering quests, as a small and regular contribution to #OSM datas. It's fun, and this is a way to re-discover my daily neighbourhood in #montreal
Some questions for streetcomplete users :
- how to edit a quest when I accidentally validate a wrong data ?
- is there a way to add informations (objects) for public #art pieces, which are located in public space ? (such as sculptures, statues, murals...)

Thanks for your help 🙏

Something personal 🤫

Before leaving for my longer walks, I often leave my wife (aka Piglet among other names) a note, along with a pen and ink Pooh sketch that somehow relates to what I am saying. Obviously, I've edited out the surrounding messages, but I thought you might like to see some of my pics 😊💕

an image of four raku ceramic sculptures in four separate tiles. all against a background of grey-brown driftwood, they are (clockwise from top left): 1. a vaguely dome or egg-shaped night spirit glazed in a bottom-to-top gradient of violet purple to blue. it has a sweet oooo face, and two little arms across its front. there are plant and flower carvings around its base. 2. a radish spirit glazed in warm red (bottom) to white to green for the two leaves on the top of its head. it's very friendly! 3. a calico — orange, black, and white — cat spirit with a very sleepy face. 4. a small, peach-coloured nature spirit friend with a gentle face and plant carvings around its base. each scu[pture has flowers and leaves next to it: chives, borage, speedwell, violet, or green fennel foliage.

A rant on why I think we need realistic Solarpunk, plus some other things 1/2 ☀️

Felt compelled to make this. It will finally stop floating around in my head 🎉

Page 4. "If we can imagine absolute Cyberpunk dystopia with ease but not the opposite, it's because we don't have enough popular stories yet which would showcase that believable alternative." A lady is reading a Solarpunk book. She exclaims: "So you're telling me people can just do stuff without a monetary incentive or the risk of hunger and homelessness? Movie number 3752 about robots enslaving humanity was much more realistic!" "The hard part for Solarpunks is imagining what the culture and structure of this new society would look like. How would it operate?" Drawing: the author sits gloomily at a desk, mumbling "I wish I could try out this hobby but the tools are so expensive, and I don't even know if it'll be a long-term interest or not...". But then they have an epiphany. "Wait, I could literally just go to the library!" "How does this new world think? And what do we change about ourselves to get closer to it?" The final doodle is of a man stating we must ensure economic growth until the end of time, though the woman next to him retorts: "You and what endless planetary resources?" She then suggests that we instead produce what's necessary and give it to those who need it.

Page 3. "And that tomorrow part is important! When it comes to technology, we can stop climate change and achieve a sustainable world right now." A whole section next to this text is filled with various sustainable technologies: perma- and polyculture, wind turbines, vernacular architecture, reforestation, libraries of everything, trains, trams, bikes, solar panels, habitat restoration, degrowth etc. "We don't need to wait until a fancy piece of tech comes along and fixes everything." There's a rendition of that meme where people are huddling together to discuss something. A contraption called "carbon sucker 9000 appears". The group gives it a thumbs up and continues discussing their own stuff like minimizing plane travel. "What we need is large cultural and societal change. But most people struggle to imagine anything but dystopia." In a frame nearby, a rich guy gleefully puts his foot on a pair of scales, favoring a bag of money over the planet. However, just out of frame is a group of people with tools, ready to take the planet back. "Solarpunk is for filling that blank space! And a grounded, though not unambitious, approach makes it feel more achievable to the average person."

Page 2. "Well, let's see...Solarpunk isn't just an aesthetic, it's an emerging genre and artistic movement." The statement is accompanied by mandala-like drawing of several hands drawing the Solarpunk symbol. Then there's a dualistic drawing: Cyberpunk and Solarpunk next to each other. In the Cyberpunk drawing, a man is holding a gun, and in the other he is unloading soil from a big bag into a garden bed. Three tiny people are floating next to the Solarpunk man, imagining what tasty stuff can grow from that soil. The caption reads: "Solarpunk is also sort of CyberPunk's counterpart. While Cyberpunk concerns itself with wrecking bad old systems, Solarpunk is about building new, better ones. SolarPunk's creation was very intentional - it's for letting us imagine a tomorrow that's not a fucking shitshow." In the corner, the artist points at a box labeled "future" and asks "If it's alive, what do you reckon it looks like?"

Page 1 of comic. The uppermost caption states: "I like realistic Solarpunk. I think it's the best kind, actually!" Under it is a horizontal space filled with doodles: someone exiting a tool library, a girl holding a mended sock, a chama group is pooling donations, a woman browses Wikipedia, a volunteer is filling a bowl with free soup. "By realistic I mean grounded. Something that we could imagine happening in our real world. No magic (a drawing of a girl with fire powers), no supernatural elements unless you know what you're doing (a talking cat), no cure-all tech (a man is claiming a tiny piece of tech is going to solve everything). The artist appears. "I feel that way because of my answer to this question: what is Solarpunk for?"
