Listening to an amazing interview with Rebecca Solnit about #hope despite the #wildfires and #ClimateCrisis on this week's episode of What on Earth #podcast. Love that she reached out to #LauraLynch herself to inject this conversation topic into the #climate space, because it is SO needed.

Esp like the talk about hope vs #doomerism vs #optimism #pessimism and #cynicism. As theorist Mary Manjikian reminds us, #dread is a luxury emotion...

I think the hammer will probably end up swinging more towards nationalism, fascism and authoritarianism in the next 10 years and that will have long-lasting effects.
Thus, much worse.

Life Sucks, Then You Die | ARTHUR SCHOPENHAUER - Einzelganger
From the description:
"The amount of suffering in the world is vast, so observed Schopenhauer. Life is a constant striving, a relentless pursuit of desires and needs that keep appearing. So it’s no surprise that people label this philosopher ‘pessimistic’ and ‘dark.’ But his observations aren’t unfounded."

@sara_peltola @outi @vittorio_fossofino @KarjalaisenHoo Toivon kanssa pitkään painineena ja sitä kotisivujeni asiaan?-sivun lopussa ruumiinavailleena muistan nykyään mielelläni Ville Lähteen erinomaista suomennosta Mara van der Lugtin esseestä Katse kohti pimeää, https://netn.fi/fi/artikkeli/katse-kohti-pimeaa, jossa hahmotellaan toiveikasta pessimismiä lähtien optimismin ja tavallisen toivon vastuuttomuudesta nykyajassa. Itse ehkä rehabilitoisisin epätoivonkin.

Many young people feel like their future is in peril. To make progress on climate change, we must move past doomsday scenarios. […] We need a new message for climate change. One that drives action through optimism that things can be better.» ― Hannah Ritchie in #wired from 2021-11-01

Can we assume that now, replete with the PM's glowing endorsement, #GuardianAustralia is about to change tack & henceforth begin approving new #FossilFool projects, funding the #FossilFool industry, making cruelly parsimonious miniscule adjustments to the entrenched #PovertyPayments of #NewStart, begin kicking peeps off #NDIS, flouting #FoI spirit & letter just like the previous arseholes, promulgating pure bullshit housing policies, yada yada ... all the while bleating constantly but dishonestly that they're "leaving no readers behind"? 🤷♀️ 😜

Tietysti valamiehistö on edelleen ulkona sen suhteen, kuinka väistämättömän pessimismin kanssa voi elää viisaasti, enkä peru toivon ruumiinavailuani. Säikäyttää kyllä välillä, kun silmiin hyppää jostain mainos, että "Toivo elää!".
