@nprofile1q... I tend to think this is very lumped in with normative supremacist attitudes generally - they have a concept of what is normal and deviation from that, even when it's a whole generation(or culture, language, whatever), is considered a negative. Even when it's something that would seem like a positive if it was a different type of the same group!

@nprofile1q... some place that needs summer shade and winter sun? If it's a bonus might as well use it for pre attractiveness if there's no productive place for it.

@nprofile1q... not sure about affordable and it's microSD instead of SD but Boox Palma seems to fit https://shop.boox.com/products/palma

@nprofile1q... individualist and culturally myopic - because depending on how you define anarchic there have been plenty of variously anarchic societies and cultures they could look at. So that feels sufficient - like it has existed, so of course it can exist.
Like I don't know what it feels like to live in a big family with siblings - there's parts of the sibling life experience I just can't imagine or perform - but I can see that people exist within them, and in some ways it seems more comfortable and advantageous and some ways less so than my experience as an only child.

@nprofile1q... Yes, so much this! I was talking to a friend and explaining how roads are designed to be safe at higher speeds than the speed limit and this is visually apparent, so drivers drive faster and get tickets and like all of a sudden he started getting it about how streets designed like this screw everyone... And it's like from a very different point of view, but yeah spreading the gospel of fixing the underlying infrastructure rather than policing the behavior...

@nprofile1q... have you heard about Molly Crabapple's "Here Where We Live Is Our Country"? I haven't read it yet but I listened to her interview on Chris Hayes podcast and this is really the point she makes about what this movement was trying - that safety is not about becoming the majority/oppressor, it's about making a society where there are no oppressed minorities. https://share.google/BgZi99CtcAQ6PmsqJ

@nprofile1q... yeah I remember learning this for the first time as part of basic management strategy.
If you plan your future in a way that assumes you or your team gives 100% all the time, that means literally any disruption will bring cascading larger disruptions and delays.
Your "best" should be restorative and sustainable - your "emergency capacity" is an entirely different thing. If your environment makes you feel/expects you to act like you're in an emergency all the time, that's a problem that needs larger fixes.

@nprofile1q... so much this.
I also read that oxytocin release & mechanisms of love show we are much better adapted to "loving being needed" than "loving the person you need". Like showing someone you need them and that you value the care they take of you is one of the biggest ways to make them feel better.

@nprofile1q... nice! And this is also part of an ongoing overall reduction in total greenhouse gas emissions. They have been steadily using less per year since 2007. Truly impressive and hopeful.
