I have just read this powerful piece after it was mentioned in the @beautifulbusiness.bsky.social's PolyOpportunity meeting earlier today. @kenmikkelsen.bsky.social – thank you for writing this – it's another important brick in the process of reclaiming my own responsibility. Must read y'all!

@ecetemelkuran.bsky.social writes about the need of faith, not hope. @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social – thank you for showing that the subject of this faith is closer than one might think – it's believing in ourselves. Let's go.

I have visited EMAP's and @transmediale.bsky.social's UnNatural encounters today in Silent Green. The core of the VR experience created by @cecarlsen.bsky.social was truly extraordinary in its simplicity and sensibility, thank you for the most wonderful times! 🖤
