It is unfair to chickens that we besmirch their good names with this inaccurate metaphor.

But chickens in fact go home to roost every night, with clockwork precision, when the sun goes down, and they do so as a precautionary measure. It is an act performed regularly and with foresight precisely to avoid the predictable consequences of being very fleshy and tasty.

This is typically used to describe the predictable negative consequences of one's own behaviour being tangibly visited upon one - impliedly after a period of 'getting away with it' wherein the lead time of those consequences was somehow unexpectedly or unnaturally prolonged.

I didn't really like their 2018 outing but the new one from June is really good.

What I call Serfdom of the Self is when our identities, attention, and even emotions become dependent on digital systems we don’t control. We hand over more of our inner lives to these systems, and in return they decide the conditions of our existence.

Exactly - entire communities break down. Also in my doc 🙂

And globally, public opinion continues to strongly and steadily recognise the need to tackle the climate crisis. Putting off action will only increase the eventual costs to all.

The current political backdrop presents challenges to this, to say the least. But politics cannot outrun the science or the economic fundamentals - notably the enormous physical risks posed to business by climate disruption.

These leaders show what's possible in terms of supply chain action. But they can't move markets on their own. We need a collective solution for a collective problem. And that ultimately calls for strong and internationally aligned regulation.
