I know #Mastodon isn't perfect, but there're 2 things I enjoy, as my #Unlearning process away from #MediaTools:

- #Friction: There is a lot of it, the barrier of entry is high. But I love it, because it's making me question hard how easy we had it before by being manipulated to extract data from us (for free)

- #Disorientation: Most of the times I feel pretty much lost trying to make sense of MT, but that's the beauty of it. Putting the energy, effort, intent & focus in equal terms

''Three juvenile grizzly #bears tested positive for highly pathogenic #avian #influenza (HPAI) virus this fall. The three bears, one near Augusta, one near Dupuyer, and another near #Kalispell, were observed to be in poor condition and exhibited #disorientation and partial #blindness, among other #neurological issues. They were euthanized due to their sickness and poor condition.''

#Starship 🚀 flip maneuver - #Passengers might feel some #disorientation 🤢 during the flip from #horizontal to #vertical, but the stress on their body will not be higher than what they would experience on most #RollerCoasters. #SpaceX might install #rotating seats 💺 in the future to help keep the G forces experienced on the body in only one direction https://everydayastronaut.com/starships-belly-flop-maneuver

Just got back home after a 5 week stay in a #psychiatric clinic. Well regimented. Wonderful, professional staff. Now I’m overwhelmed (in the sense of being slightly destabilised) by free choice. The #French have a wonderful term for this state or feeling: « d’être déboussolé ». ‘Une boussole’ is a compass.🧭. #Disorientation There’s a parallel between free market #mentalhealth & the mental health of a stabilised regime (passed tense because a is stabiliser is implied). Sat watching my cats play!

#SampoHänninen ‘Empiric studies’ (2011), about the #Berghain, #Berlin, in "Berghain: #Space, #affect, and #sexual #disorientation" by #JohanAndersson.
"In this article, I think of Berlin’s techno club Berghain as a form of relational aesthetics where encounters mediated by tactile sounds, labyrinthine #architecture, and libido-enhancing drugs create an unusually porous sexual subjectivity. By sketching out some changes in the composition of the club’s crowd and drug culture – a shift towards aphrodisiac substances such as G and mephedrone – I argue that Berghain has become a specific pharmacolibidinal constellation. Especially the recreational drug G can be thought of as an unruly liquid that concretises queer theory’s preoccupation with sexual fluidity. Instead of nausea-inducing drugs in combination with same-sex erotica – a popular technique in so-called ‘aversion therapy’ – this is a ‘gay conversion therapy’ in reverse whereby erotic horizons expand and multiply through the combination of chemicals and a multi-sensory overload of pleasurable stimuli. Rather than thinking of sexual orientation as located inside the body, I suggest, we might think of it as located inside the building."

There's no upside when you're upside down. #Disorientation is a tool and it's used intentionally. https://youtube.com/shorts/d4RRsWER7EA?feature=share

Wonderfully anti-capitalist college orientation guides, specific to each college. I found my college on there, and it was on point! I wish I had this when I started school:
