Yeah, just like most material that was ever printed or carved into a clay tablet. It’s the way of things.

I love the French for being the most outspoken people among the European countries and having a ton of good initiatives going on. But don’t idolize them, most of their population is just as braindead and complacent as the rest of us Europeans, and their general unwillingness to speak English like most other Europeans hinders the spreading of their radical initiatives in the rest of Europe. (Sorry for the blatant generalizing. Not every French, not every European, …)
Okay but which nation isn’t?
I find nations problematic because they are units that are too large and therefore are controlled by groups not easily overseen and almost impossible to make accountable by the population.
The USA is not only a nation but an empire, which is like a nation with an integrated, violently imposed pyramid scheme.
If only we could find a way to organize into independent smaller units that federate into larger units and remain tolerant of the differences of the smaller units. Ironically that is what the USA seems to have attempted to do with their united states thing?
Great to hear! I guess others who are not in leadership roles would like to hear more about guys like you, and would like to know that some of you are also taking the time to teach other leaders take a different approach to work management and leadership culture.
I’m curious what would be your reply to this? Do you think a society can regulate or educate this problem away?
This reminds me very much of Riddley Walker, have you read it?
Is physics true now? Is truth something with exactly defined borders?
My grandfathers were probably still saying it while already marching eastwards in a Wehrmacht uniform.
Drawing. I set myself the strict rule to be completely unambitious about my coloured pencil drawings. I do them only for myself, and the enjoyment while doing it is the main purpose. So sometimes I just draw some squiggles and then I fill them with colours, one layer over another. One drawing can take weeks, I do a bit every evening and it is so relaxing. Now with time they start looking really neat as a cool side effect, so I have been thinking about framing them.
First we need more info, for example: What activities do you enjoy? Would you rather have a job/career that pays for your hobbies, or a job/career that fulfills you? What would ‘normal’ or ‘high’ achievement look in your opinion?
Sometimes I wonder if all of us spectrumy people carry some kind of personal or deep family trauma.
My cat is called Wigglebutt Fuzzypants, cause it describes her well. She has more hair than she can manage.
Believe it or not, that was how it worked. The advantage of this was that it guaranteed that you only invested time in things you were really passionate about.

Speaking is an act of changing reality, always. If you want to go as far as calling this ‘speaking to’ is up to you.
I decided to check if it was any better than my current specialized job portal, which has enshittified a little in the last years. But Linkedin enshittification can’t be beat. It’s like prostitution level of job seeking for brainwashed people. What jobs are you applying for?
LinkedIn just isn’t for Jobs Anymore. It’s Now a Pile of Trash.
Ads about pushing your career, then more ads about how to create a better work life balance. And everybody seems to be a coach who tries to push their courses about the above mentioned topics. Thanks but I’ll pass.
I made her mine using the command line and sudo
Be a member of the Brother-hood. I have a big black multifunction Brother printer, scanner (even fax, wtf!), and it works on both Linux and Windows. Bought four years ago. It just wants a quiet corner and a wifi connection. I think it’d even print from my Android phone if I tickled it a little, but can’t be arsed now. It’s happy with cheapo ink as well. It also cleans itself and has survived in a definitely-not-an-office environment. If it makes another year I’ll give it a pet name, it deserves one!
It’s a technological and a physical issue. We just can’t store every bit of information plus a picture of everyone’s cat. We can’t guarantee that no information ever gets lost. We’ve also not really stored and archived every shopping list, advertising, pamphlet, silly poem, ugly drawing etc. since the time of the printing press and that’s okay.
It might be a good idea to store and archive some written material as time passes but we want to be a bit picky about what we store. That said, I wouldn’t mind to find more shopping lists and less posh documents in museums.
