Collapsible.Systems is a research node to collect and share knowledge relating to the Collapsible Project (see https://wiki.collapsible.systems).

If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.

(Possibly an African proverb)

Collapsible.Systems is a research node of the Collapsible Project. It primarily exists to gather strategies, skills, disciplines, technologies, ideas and designs to the ends of preparing communities, big and small, for a time of great upheaval - an era of collapses (plural).

In short, the goal is to make a really useful wiki with social media as the research engine.

The intended flow:

• Find useful things relating to collapse(s) resilience.
• Share them on this Mastodon instance
• Archive them in the Collapsible Wiki
• Also occasionally share amazing tardigrade facts, images or poems

The Collapsible Wiki is hosted at https://wiki.collapsible.systems. See the Wiki for more info about the broader project.

The rest of the time, this instance is just another Mastodon node on the Fedi for you to use like any other, for you and your interests!

README

In joining this server you:

• identify that we face not some future Collapse, but are already in the midst of multiple converging collapses.
• recognise that the climate and extinction crises are due to the stresses our growth-addicted civilisation has placed on the Planet, and with that comes consequences for all alive.
• understand that species extinction and a changed climate can not be undone, that we are already locked in for decades of consequences regardless of any mitigating steps made today.
• understand that many communities are already enduring significant and sudden changes, and that we have much to learn from them.
• believe that openly discussing and addressing the challenges we face is not 'negative', nor pessimistic, but essential to overcoming them.
• understand that environmental defense and biome conservation today are crucial for our continued survival tomorrow.
• recognise that true resilience means togetherness, and that strong communities are built atop a commitment to inclusivity.
• honestly think tardigrades are amazing, not only because they are collapsible.
