“It takes men to govern men, and what governs the greater force will control the lesser. It is not necessary to cut two holes in the gate, the one for the large, the other for the small cat. The small cat can go through the large hole.”

—Edward Drinker Cope, 1889

You can’t make this shit up. At least it explains the origin of the brilliant proverb “ is the curse of the Drinker classes”.

Re-read the feedback from my writing coach/developmental editor on my chapter and it's so helpful--especially the point that I need to pull the argument more to the fore. But right now, it's good enough to set aside and move to the next chapter.

Ahora que la efigie de Carrillo va a estamparse en papel moneda, se va a volver realmente ubicuo...

Si quieren conocer más sobre su singular figura, está disponible, tanto en librerías como en ebook, El don de la ubicuidad, libro que escribí sobre la otra faceta de Carrillo, la del teórico estatal, creador de dos ciencias de gobierno a las que bautizó cibernología y biopolítica.

It's beginning, third person educated scholars try to criticize ChatGPT, but they can't do it convincly because they stand on the same level: abstraction. In the end, I'm sure it will be a good thing for embodied paradigms and practitioners.

[Meta-Crisis & Ways Out] For those who missed my first post (mstdn.social/@ki_cog/109669830), a second layer about Daniel Schmachtenberger's smart analysis of the current meta-crisis (ecological, technological, sense-making, etc) and possible ways out. Exciting.

"For us to imagine a politics outside of control, and to imagine a life within this politics, requires a new formulation of politics that accepts the fundamental metastability within us; that incorporates the notion of desire as an intensity; and that, most importantly, sees life as a dynamic process of individuation."
