Not sure this was clear.

Collapse isn't an event, it's a process that historically is only clear in hindsight.

That applies to us now. We still locate the possibility of collapse in the future.

But we're already in what history will see as the process of collapse, and it has to be affecting us.
I keep thinking we're radically underestimating the psychological and affective impact the climate crisis is having on us.

In a worst-case scenario, in a historical treatment of the period we're in now, it would be at the heart of the epochal end time, not a preceding period or prelude to the end.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Miksi laitaoikeisto jaksaa aina pöyristyä kokonaisuuden kannalta pienistä ja arkisista tapauksista, kuten nyt Afrikan tähdestä?

Se ei ole sattumaa, vaan tarkoituksellista - ja luultavasti strategista.

Pöyristymisen politiikkaa on hyvä purkaa vähän auki.

Helen Mirren thinks it's "magical" that dancing in orbit around the earth are a hundred robots singing (at 1575Mhz, one eternal note held halfway between B♭ and B, 21 octaves above middle C), and any time you can hear four of them sing at once you know exactly where in the universe you are
every day, I too grieve the fact that Kurt Cobain never experienced GPS
