I'm a climate scientist by trade. Interested in interesting things. Ecology, complexity, politics, social change, music.

  • Probably because the base material sucks (any "everyone is an arsehole" story sucks)

    Plus, all the projects are cash grabs by capitalists with zero sense of taste or style.

  • 💯 so much garbage. The 2-3 hour fan made cut-down versions are good though.

    Made me even more pissed that they left Tom Bombadil out of LotR.

  • I feel like dictionaries are over rated as a form, since they lead to nit-picky comments like this :P

  • Game of Thrones

  • Very fucking good.

  • Very fucking good.

  • Yep.

    But the covering up with music part is still less common for millenias, who are more likely to be able to openly discuss their struggles and emotions with friends

  • This seems like more of a Gen X attribute to me. I'm an older millenial, and I know heaps of people my age who go to therapy.

  • You should consider selling your fucks instead, at least that way you get something for them

  • Writing a list of things I want to do at the start of the day. Don't need to get them all done, but it just gives some direction. Things can roll over too, if they seem worth it.

  • Oh, cool. Thank you!

  • Thanks for this! Been looking for something like it. I guess it just blocks the sites though, and doesn't block them appearing in search results?

  • Ah, yeah, that's right, it was the Strike magazine article

  • Thanks for the insight! I might give it a crack.

  • I love Graeber. His book with David Wengrow, the Dawn of Everything, was definitely a worldviews shifter for me. Amazing book.

    I didn't read Bullshit Jobs, but it read an article he wrote along with it, that was great.

  • Great quote, excellent lesson, agreed.

    I liked Slaughterhouse 5, bud fuck it was depressing. I loved Cat's Cradle. Only read a few other short stories, I think..

  • Seems to get some mixed reviews, lots of people on goodreads sayng it writes off the concept of trauma?

  • Not entirely sure how this relates to feedbacks.. But if you're interested in the paradox of tolerance, you might also find this interesting - reframing the problem as a social construct removes the paradox: https://conversational-leadership.net/tolerance-is-a-social-contract/

    (note: I just skimmed that version, there might be better versions of this argument out there)
