#Sufficiency: It’s a highly technical dispute. But it’s part of a larger conversation about how much #blackout #risk we consider acceptable in #modernsociety — and whether our #expectations should evolve in the name of preventing #climatecatastrophe- Sammy Roth

Over the years, thanks to the proliferation of mindfulness as a business, and thanks to a bunch of 'gurus' floating around the planet giving their followers many superficial interpretations of what Budha spoke in his time, we are now filled with banal reflections like this. #Spirituality #Mindfulness #LettingGo #Business #ModernSociety

Hi I am Peter Pilgrim. I am working on an original song about micro-aggression prejudice for 2023 - "I woke up from deep dream sleep" #NewMusicFriday #england #blacktiktok #rock #guitar #miltonkeynes #microaggressions #prejudice #modernsociety

My arrogance is more informed and badass than yours...

Whatever happened to the Truth....
The actual truth, not a person's version of events that are twisted to suit their own agenda...
When truth doesn't matter.... But who shouts the loudest does...
Do we all just invest in megaphones ??

Hey, imagine if we had a school system model that made every single child feel they're not quite good enough, and some children feel like they're worse than useless? 😁

Oh. We do. 🤔

Telling people to ignore babies crying. I would say that is about the culmination of our modern age's achievements.

Vous vous souvenez peut-être du documentaire #Hypernormalisation, rapidement culte il y a quatre ans et réalisé comme chacun des films du réalisateur uniquement par des footages très divers et une voix off. On peut discuter les thèses avancées, mais c'est au moins intéressant dans les rapports entre images, réel, mythe et fiction.
Un nouveau documentaire de #AdamCurtis est sorti il y a une dizaine de jours (et c’est au moins aussi bien qu’une série de la BBC). "'Can't Get You Out of My Head: An Emotional History of the Modern World' is a six-part BBC documentary television series [...] It attempts to explain how " #modernsociety has arrived at where it is today by tracing various topics such as, 'the strange roots of modern #conspiracytheories, the history of #China, #opium and #opioids, [and] the history of #ArtificialIntelligence'."
Je n'ai pas encore tout vu mais c'est déjà super.
