  • Probably not till after November, my weird kin, (u/@ms_lane@lemmy.world). I've always found and appreciated finding myself in weird company. And yeah the cool, creative, nerdy, neurodivergent folx have always been around me. I'm sure I would have been drugged as a child had I been born later. As it was, I had to do it myself. ;-)

    "In three hours, the monoliths removed 53 per cent of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), one of the most common forever chemicals also called PFAS.

    Moreover, by heating the monoliths at 500°C and reusing them three times, researchers observed that at least 75 per cent of PFOA was removed."

    So yeah, like 9+ hour process. Gotta cool them down between each run. I looked on wikipedia, Indium is about $167/ Kg. What if, I know this is crazy, what if we stopped poisoning the planet, and ourselves?

    Alan's List of Polyamory Events - and a question...

    https://polyevents.blogspot.com/?m=0

    There was a question about how to meet poly folx, and my first thought was go where they are - as in what is the overlap between one's interests and poly folx? This link is to a more specific subset of events where one can find like minded people. The question: Where have you found to be a good place to meet polyamorous people?

    Types of Non-Monogamy Enormous Euler Diagram

    I wanted to include links to other related communities in this community. I was trying to come up with terms for all these related relationship types, and then I remembered that this venn existed. I've seen numerous versions of this previously. This one happens to come from (https://polyadvisor.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/nonmonogamy3-large-768x512.png) or REALLY ENORMOUS (https://www.xeromag.com/sexualinformatics/nonmonogamy2.5.2.gif) See, I even credited my source. :-D

    Links to Resources Polyamorous

    I'd like to put links on the sidebar to communities that relate to our topic of polyamory, of all sorts. I can't find them all by myself, so I'm asking for help from our lovely burgeoning community. Whatcha got?

    Oops, there already is a Polyamory Community of Lemmy.World

    I didn't see it this morning when I was searching. I'm pretty sure we should migrate there, before this whole thing gets outa hand. Does anyone see any reason to not join with (https://lemmy.world/c/polyamory)?

    Edit: I find a plurality of support for keeping this community, based on the principle of strength through diversity. Let's DO THIS THING!!

    Image for the community?

    I thought to post a poly flag for the community, but was reminded on searching, that there are a lot of them. What flag or image do you like? Maybe I'll cycle them thru? https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=polyamory+flag&iax=images&ia=images

    Edit: As the community is new I'd like to roll with this thread for a couple weeks, and hope others will make suggestions, offer opinions, etc. And then I propose we have a poll to decide the fiag or flags. If multiple flags get chosen, then we can cycle them. I suggest a ranked choice vote, as it's more in keeping with my understanding of the philosophy of polyamory, supports all our community in it's diversity, and anarchistic.

    m/Polyamory is LIVE

    I searched this morning for communities related to polyamory and open relationships. Finding nothing, I created something. If you are interested in polyamory, open relationships, ethical non-monogamy, etc, swing on by for a chat, to post something silly, as you will.

    Why Polyamory? Why Now?

    Open relationships have existed throughout human history. Though the word "poly-amorous" was first found in literature in the Green Egg Magazine in May 1990. And In May of 1992 created a usenet group (alt.polyamory), which I have to wonder, is usenet still out there? And then on the 27th of July 2024, I noticed there was no Polyamory magazine on the Fediverse. It's my understanding that in the early days of creating the internet (where we currently find ourselves), when one finds something that doesn't yet exist there lies an opportunity to create it. So I'm out here on the edge of Internet-space creating a place, and calling for others to join me in developing a place for conversations, etc, in support of mutually supportive relationships, in support of polyamory and a better world.

    Venmo/ Paypal Alternatives

    I've long been annoyed that everyone, including myself uses Paypal/ Venmo for moving money around. What alternatives do you find useful? Here's a list (https://alternativeto.net/software/venmo/). GNU Taler looks viable (https://taler.net/en/index.html). I would love to have your thoughts!

    Edit: Thanks for everyone's input. I really appreciate it. <3

    Sharing EV Charging Station

    Is anyone sharing their charging station. Using Plugshare, or some other method. I'm curious how this would work. As of now I'm producing more electrons than I'm using on a grid tied PV system. And my power company has different pricing depending on time of day, as well.

    Fukumushi Sencha - cold brew

    I've been exploring/enjoying Sencha. And I came across the idea of cold brewing. It seemed heretical at first, as I was used to precise temperature and time. I've found that I enjoy it very much. https://www.sugimotousa.com/blog/how-to-cold-brew-green-tea-and-why-you-should-do-it#sencha
