Collapsible is intended for those interested in gathering, refining and sharing strategies, skills, disciplines, technologies, ideas, designs, systems and critical thought in an effort to prepare and strengthen communities big and small in a time of great upheaval, an era of collapses (plural). It is not a submission to 'The Collapse' and nor does it seek to romanticise an end times. Within this frame, individual-centered survivalist and prepper cultures are not welcome, while we identify that both have much that may be of direct use to communities facing tough times.

Collapsible is intended for those interested in sharing strategies, skills, disciplines, technologies, ideas, designs, systems and critical thought that contribute to the thriving of the many in a time of great upheaval, an era of collapses (plural). It is not a submission to 'The Collapse' and nor does it seek to romanticise an end times. Within this frame individual-centered survivalist and prepper cultures are not welcome, while we identify that both have much that may be of direct use to communities facing tough times.  
*    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 surviving 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.
