i think solarpunk should have texture, physical texture that explicitly rejects the perfectionism of capitalism / colonialism / eugenics.

like, really tangible solid objects and spaces, that are allowed to be wonky and imperfect and unique and non-minimalist with signs of repair and reuse. and realizing and celebrating that nature is the same way. and getting dirt on your hands. and the same logic applied to people – solarpunk by and for and about people with scars and marks and quirks, disabled people, neurodivergent people.

and solarpunk that rejects forcing prescribed requirements of “usefulness and functionality” onto people and objects and… everything.
