I spent 20+ years on the hedonic treadmill, only to realize it doesn't lead anywhere. Now I'm a metamodern hippe living in the far north with my husband https://unstraight.club/@Nightwolf and our two dogs. My passion project right now is a contemporary urban space opera called "The Psychonaut Chronicles". See pinned threads for more about me and where I live. I alt-text images and expect the same from you.

"The Cold Call installation takes the form of a call center, where audiences are invited to connect by telephone to executives in the fossil fuel industry and instructed to keep them on the phone as long as possible. The cumulative time stolen from these executives is then quantified as carbon credits using an innovative new offsetting methodology" https://tegabrain.com/Cold-Call

Stole your meme because I've now seen it retweeted FIVE times without alt-text and it's a bummer, because it's a good one.

Wife's just shown me this.....

Professional golfer Georgia Ball - a certified PGA pro recording herself practising her swing, as a random man comes up to tell her she's doing it wrong.......

Professional sports person minding their own business, slow swinging to practice. When the guy pesters her she realises she's got to shut him up so hits the longest and straightest shot I've ever seen on a driving range. She handles him very well but HOLY CHRIST WHAT AN ABSOLUTE DICK!

One thing that struck me about this meta-modern, post-truth era is that all the crazy feelings-over-facts arguments from politicians (pretty much all conservatives regardless of country), influencers, lobbyists, and the general population is not a temporary hickup.

Things will never be as un-crazy as they are today, it will only get worse.

I'm not sure how we move on to the next era, but it helps to not expect things to "go back to normal”. What we're experiencing today is the new normal.

@kazarnowicz i find it easier to framme it as; now we realise that we constantly are in a no normal state.

    Whilst watching The Elf today while mopping floors I got to thinking there needs to be some kind of periodic chart about different kinds of elves. Also, it is interesting that all the servant/enslaved class of elves are diminutive, small + infantilized while they cobble shoes, bake cookies, make toys, or clean a wizards house. They become facile and simple. But when power is recognized in Elves they grow tall and lithe + beautiful and immortal-high elves with warriors skills.

    I believe the most important phrase in science in coming decades will be "ontological shock." Our approach to scientific advancement thus far has largely focused on observing matter and energy at micro and macro scales, but it is clear that observation alone does not explain the behavior of said matter and energy.

    In quantum mechanics, we see we do not understand the behavior of the tiniest constituents of matter.

    In our observation if distant galaxies, we see we don't understand the nature of matter on a macro scale (ie: socalled "dark matter).

    We have reached our limit of understanding by looking only at matter as a physical phenomenon, and we are on the brink of a new paradigm that will upheave everything we thought we knew.

    This will overhaul our understanding of the nature of spacetime, quantum fields, and consciousness, through a "nonlocal" lens.

    Things are about to get real weird.
