I've been revisiting some favourite music scenes I was too young to be around for, and 80s Scottish and European post punk is great. This spotify radio is great for starters.
From the (mostly) gone but not forgotten Postcard label to the (kinda) present: a 50-song, 50-artist survey.
Also, if you f with this kind of music, you'll also dig Big Gold Dream (full film link here).
I write 100 words of fiction a day; it's usually the best part of my day (even if the writing is awful). It gets the dark gremlins out of my head for a bit. With how meaningless corporate jobs are, I need something creative.
The solution is the same as always: decentralized and build it small, local, redundant, and networks. That's what made the internet powerful in the first place, what made it good. Now, we can't even swap out our now phone batteries!
