8.8 EVERYTHING FREE A TTRPG About A Moneyless World
Season 8, Ep. 8
•
In this episode we discuss the June poll through a thought experiment game Aleya made, played on Fastfrwrd.info, to simulate what a free revolution and a paid revolution might be like when juxtaposed, side by side, and compared for their benefits. This game is all about finding out whether or not a moneyless world can work, how it sounds and feels, and whether it can compete with the money, money, money world we know and, well, not love, but tolerate with mild socialist disdain? What do all you tanky, commie Solarpunks think? Do we throw out the dollar sign or what? Listen to find out the fate of the world and whether money wins or the dirty commie hippies win with a moneyless world that won't get up and go to work!

Carbon Neutral Strike Update 24: July 3 to 12, 2026 Creation & Solarpunk Now
31:27|In this episode, I feel the effects of my Carbon Neutral Strike choices as opportunities go by and my personal life suffers. I create two short stories to try to get published and speak about that process and encourage people to make their own art. I share a couple songs I made this week and hopefully it shows all the ideas that have brought me to these songs and their lyrical material. I end up expressing my frustrations and the need I have for a world that is Solarpunk now, since Kingston is one of the first places to experience Climate Departure.Website: https://fastfrwrd.infoSolarpunk Presents Patreon: https://patreon.com/solarpunkpresentsTranscript: https://www.patreon.com/solarpunkpresents/posts/transcript-24-163613665/

Carbon Neutral Strike Reflections 2026
37:36|In this Carbon Neutral Strike update, I reflect on the past year of striking and what take-aways I have. We discuss the specifics, the situation that surrounded the carryings on of the strike, and the path forward. Would love to get some feedback on what you thought of the previous strike updates and what emotions you think your low impact lifestyle if you practice it would have brought about if you too made monologues like me! We talk about using gas everytime I smoke, my eco journey, cruel and unusual punishment, the plastic problem, 'becasue', getting paid less than $3 USD per hour, billionaires, fornication :p, why I left Germany, struggles in community and a plea to find out how to overcome these obstacles.More about how hormones are affected by Plastic: https://www.beyondplastics.org/ask-a-scientist/plastics-hormonesWebsite: https://fastfrwrd.infoSolarpunk Presents Patreon: https://patreon.com/solarpunkpresents
7. 8.7 Revisiting Solar and Lunarpunk Music
01:22:28||Season 8, Ep. 7In this episode, Aleya and Ariel discuss the musical highlights of the post-punk and post-punk revival music scenes, and their influences on Aleya's teenage years and musical growth as well as whether they qualify not only as punk/post punk/revival but also solid Solarpunk or Lunarpunk. The music playlist can be found on the Solarpunk Presents Patreon where we share monthly playlist suggestions for all members including free members!There is a mistake where the lyrics for "Reptilia" by The Strokes is misquoted and it is actually from "Whatever Happened" still.
