So much of this resonated uncomfortably well -- but especially this line:
'In the end I found the report itself generally underwhelming, like being handed a voucher nearly half a decade out of date.'

... speechless. Put into words something I have felt since I was diagnosed mid-twenties as well.

Power maintenance for 6 hours. Figured I’d test the wood stove for the first time. Stuff it full of firewood, ignite. Beautiful! 1 hr later, all the windows are open before I have a heat stroke. 😐

The Chomsky–Epstein situation is a good reminder to the left: don’t idolize anyone. Leave the hero worship and ring-kissing to the right.

No gods. No masters. No idols.

Lurer på hvor mange sånne eller tilsvarende plasser man har i landet. Næringsdrivende bruker naturen som søppeldynge fordi det er billigere og har null konsekvenser. Ender vel med at det offentlige må ta regningen for opprydningen til slutt, her óg.

Seksuell vold er et hyppig brukt våpen i krig, men får knapt mediedekning. Hvorfor?
Til tross for at seksuell vold er et hyppig brukt våpen i krig, får det knapt mediedekning. Stillheten i redaksjonene speiler stillheten i verden – og den gjør skade.

Hva faen er det med en del helsepersonell? Legg til holdninger til kvinner, overvektige, selvskadere, rusmisbrukere - egentlig alle andre enn sånne som meg (relativt spreke og sunne hvite menn)...?

"Med stor innflytelse følger også stort ansvar. Når DNT (Den Norske Turistforening) fastholder på behovet for å ha åpne turisthytter midt i villreinens kjerneområde mener vi det er på tide med en fot I bakken."

Really worth reading the full essay.

Graeber argues that capitalism didn’t replace slavery -- it rebranded it. A key mistake of the mode-of-production model was reducing “production” to making things instead of also producing people and social relations that constitute social reproduction.
Modern capitalism has more in common with Feudalism and the oldstyle slave-system than most people realize.

Encouraging to see: rewilding works and recovery isn’t abstract -- it’s measurable in wings and colors! Color diversity signals healthier forests. Love this.
"Rainforest that has been regenerating for 30 years after being used as cattle pasture showed a remarkable increase in butterfly colour diversity."

It turns out rewilding even has the power to restore the colours human activities are draining from the natural world.

As forests are cut down, butterflies are losing their colours
The insects’ brilliant hues evolved in lush ecosystems to help them survive. Now they are becoming more muted to adapt to degraded landscapes – and they are not the only things dulling down

I have so much respect for Greta Thunberg because she easily could have coasted on speaking gigs and Davos appearances for the rest of her life

When solidarity and humanitarian work are labeled extremism, the aim is to control what is permissible to say and do. That’s how authoritarian governments seek to constrict the Overton window.
The problem is that anyone working towards justice is slowly being labeled a "terrorist."

This is happening in Israel. It's happening in the US. And it's even happening in the UK and Germany.

Don't you all see it?
On what grounds are these courageous humanitarians with their flotilla of baby formula and such being deemed “terrorists”? Anyone accusing Greta Thunberg, one of the most internationally famous ppl for her integrity, of nefarious motivations, only reflects poorly on themselves

Emma Goldman mention! Reminder: The state can remove people, not ideas; dissidents build movements that outlast regimes. Deportations are performative cruelty, security theater and public spectacle to distract from policy failure.
New in PN: Lessons from a Red Scare

"As Emma Goldman hoped, and Louis Post later demonstrated, the American people are capable of turning the tide against repression — even if that effort feels hopeless in the moment."

I dag har jeg skrevet om innestemmens paradoks, om hvordan media mangler evnen til å gjenkjenne autoritære og ekstreme strømninger når den er kledd i dress og opptrer «dannet».

Om hvordan verdiene våre brukes mot oss.

Vi må gjenkjenne det autoritære, selv om – eller særlig når – det kler seg i dress.

Few if any experts know more about the deliberate use of starvation as a war crime than Alex de Waal. If he says it's happening, it's so.
