I picked up some Dexshell ToughShield and really liked (definitely warmer than the Defeet gloves which have been my default) them up until rubbing against the brake hood so a hole appearing in the outer knit. The liner was still functional but figure that would eventually go as well.

Does anyone know of groups working at trying to wrap the idea of living within the planets limitations in a positive way? Ive become acutely aware of how much our generation takes being able to jump on a plane or in car for granted and to do otherwise feels like society thinks Im the one wearing a hair shirt.
Theres been so much talk these days of this post material economy but the experiential economy is probably no better for the planet. Id love to see a framing of what i see as necessary societal change in a positive way celebrating local spaces, locally produced food and the joys of repairing rather than picking up something new.
Extinction Rebellion has been like a breath of fresh air but I believe it needs a carrot as well as stick if were to get people to change and feel good about it. Does this ring a bell for anyone and is anyone doing interesting stuff in this space.

Managed to destroy my glasses last night...any interesting sources for non standard NOS glasses?
Anyone have a particular recommendation for a place (offline/online) to get new lenses installed in glasses? Ive got some NOS frames coming my way and looking for somewhere good and affordable...
