Worker cooperatives (and often cooperatives in general) are an example of this. They almost always exist within a capitalist system, so are not able to completely separate themselves from all aspects of capitalism, but they are definitely examples of common ownership of means of production.

Specifically you can look up the Mondragon Corporation which is probably the biggest/best known example of a workers cooperative but there are many others. There are lots of variations on this same concept - one where risk, rewards, and decision-making are shared more equitably among everybody participating. I think the most interesting are food co-ops (and sometimes CSAs), utility cooperatives, and housing cooperatives. These are all over the place and are often quietly successful examples of common ownership.

I cant believe nobody has recommended any of the Fallout games. New Vegas is much loved and I really enjoyed Fallout 3 as well. I havent played either of the new ones, but I think especially 4 was well received.

Native flowers attract bees and offer pollen + nectar for them :)

Don’t forget that honeybees aren’t the only bees nor the only pollinators. Ask your local university or beekeepers / native plants association about what you can do to help out in your area!

My new bedtime routine would be filling up the custard freezer.

YouTube pays content creators: https://www.youtube.com/howyoutubeworks/product-features/monetization/

This pay likely makes up a significant portion of YouTube creators’ revenue in addition to in-video sponsor spots/whatever a creator’s equivalent is. Without this kind of payment it’s not likely that a YouTube competitor could take off in a meaningful way.
