Is there any really all-good social network site? “There’s no exclusion zone.” I never stopped using Twitter. It’s a bummer that people I like and follow have scattered to various platforms.
The transhumanist trajectory is not for the faint of heart.
Dan this is really bad. I’m sorry.

Whoever shows up will be the right people to show up, whatever happens will be the right thing to happen, and hopefully more happy hours and who-knows-what will develop from there.

It’s not a non-sequitur to combine ‘happy hour’ with ‘holy shit.’ We need to be in relationship and laugh together as a precursor to everything else. Join us at Personal Best on Wednesday June 11 from 5-6pm, and then again on June 18 from 5-6pm.
If you suspect or accept that ever-worsening crises are the way of the world, and that community care and shared effort are the path forward... Join a weekly happy hour to meet others over a drink to talk about how we might imagine and create a future we prefer.
*It doesn't have to be this way...*
You don’t need to scan the news to know that times are very tough… If you worry about maintaining your resilience as discontinuity continues to grow… If you think you may be the only one thinking a certain way about the future…
I think mom topped this chestnut. (I built a taller fence after taking the video).
You must give off a good vibe 🌝

Storehouse is A1. Hopefully you’ve been to the Soil Factory.

Former forest beginning a path towards food…
Been thinking about the phrase cosmic optimism lately. Don’t normally go for framing that longs for optimism or hope but this combo feels all right.
Contentment is sexy.
Weekends two or three for me!
This was my Saturday highlight, and it was a highlight. Let’s see what today brings…
“A play with no men and no boats” !!
It was hilarious.
Watching a dozen young actors exuberantly having fun was a tonic to current events for sure.

You were dedicated to be there on opening day.
Also many people don’t know what SSP is and see charts like that and cry wolf (whether wolf is at the door or not). The wolf is at the door but is he coming in and when?
Some don’t want to see it & some are prepping their private storm shelters. A universally adopted third path would be so nice…
I forgot you were here on BS oops.
There’s no exclusion zone….
I’ll see how I feel in a few days; perhaps differently.
“Survival is insufficient” for sure. How one goes about surviving - thinking beyond music and beauty and art, which is mandatory - is the very hard question.
Station Eleven (the novel) first take: In the end I did not enjoy the overall experience. Unfortunately. I hate the idea that some people would act thus. My irrational desire is that humans are kind and caring, even in the worst moments. To be sure, it’s a wonderfully crafted novel. Much to savor.
I seem to recall a wide swath of storms across the central US over the past two days. The catastrophic damage from “surgical” storms entails lesser overall costs than a hurricane, but these are also growing in size and frequency and cost. (And are subjectively more terrifying too IMO).
I’m not reading the editorial - why lol it’s the NYT - but my take on this particular screenshot is that you highlighted the wrong half and this whole specific section is on point.
Resource war on.
Offense takes pressure off Defense.
The Ukraine mineral deal to be managed by DFC. U.S. public-private sovereign wealth fund knows how to play ball.
That’s one federal agency that won’t see cuts. A nice big private sector money funnel too.
Station Eleven finally, eleven years after its release. (High expectations being met.)
Planting cherry and birch and dogwood and more.
I feel resonance between the two and both offer some A and some B.

Two years ago this was a jungle of privet, honeysuckle, barberry and more. Saving pines that we can, and adding birch, chestnut, dogwood, cherry, plus understory food for us and birds. Dead elm down today - looks like 34 rings. What will the world be like 30 years from now?
