💩 I’ve learned that the realities of extraction & exploitation are hidden behind thick veils of greenwashing, smoke & mirrors, & mass distraction produced by the sustainability marketing machine. Most people give up with the depths you have to dig to see what's really happening.

As @romankrznaric says:

“The #TimeRebellion has began.

The rebels are… helping us escape the short-term cycles that digital distraction and consumer culture traps us in… they inspire us to extend our time horizons from seconds and minutes to decades and far beyond.”

“If we're rlly interested in the individual, then we must be interested in responsibility&relationship&reciprocity.

These are not realisable through #marking.

Since notions of measurement,categorization&hierarchy, that are embedded in marking, can be deeply wounding practises.”

Feedback on #PrivacyAct Review Report

1. Privacy reform must prioritise #DataMinimisation

2. We need a robust, updated definition of ‘personal information’ that discourages #surveillance and challenges the business models of #DataExtraction and targeted advertising.

“Wouldn’t it be wonderful if we could day, ‘gosh, I’m so sorry we missed this’, rather than accusing women of making it up, and calling it a fad.

Wouldn’t it be incredible if we could say, ‘we really let those women down’.”

“Getting diagnosed is nearly impossible atm.

Most of us grew up ND [ #neurodivergent ] in Australia without even realising we were until we figure it out as adults.

“Rejection sensitivity is hard to tease apart.

Often, people can’t find the words to describe its pain.

They say it’s intense, awful, terrible, overwhelming.

It is always triggered by the perceived or real loss of approval, love, or respect.”
