There were definitely some issues with the first version, and to be very honest I'm sort of frustrated with this video in general. The message isn't quite as fully hammered in as I would have wanted, but I'm at the point where I just want to be done with this.

So I did take your feedback and I fixed imo the worst section of the video which was the CEQA and California rant. So hopefully with that part fixed the video is now more cohesive. Either way I'm sorta annoyed that this was the video that ended up ballooning in time. I don't plan on repeating that for the next video...

Flexispot Links: Let's talk about a different topic today, and from a different perspective than I think most people would take. Solarpunk is a type of aesthetic that floats around leftists spaces, but it’s always bothered me for multiple reasons. And the people that use it as a hopeful future might have been led astray.
