Bei der Grönland-Obsession desjenigen, dessen Name nicht genannt werden sollte, war ich an D. Rushkoffs Interview zu seinem (eher mäßig interessanten, siehe hier: https://blog.litteratur.ch/WordPress/?p=14442 ) Buch "Survival of the Richest" erinnert. Tatsächlich scheinen diese Bemühungen um die "Insel aus Eis" - auch - von solchen Überlegungen getragen: Eine Art exterritoriales Staatsgebilde zu schaffen, das von einem CEO geleitet wird, keine Mitspracherechte für dort Arbeitende vorsieht, 1/2

Douglas Rushkoff: Survival of the Richest – litteratur.ch

🌊 Wayne Gramlich logged on before the web had a name, chose MIT because it had a wire to the future, then spent a life debugging reality. Landline loyalist, Google Brain retiree, cult hunter, robot tinkerer. With Thiel money and a Friedman heir, he stress tested a libertarian ocean state. Engineering beat ideology.

Hmm #seasteading starting to make sense with this #houseboat product? 🤔
❝desgined as a floating home and feels more like a waterfront house than a boat. Recognizing that most time aboard will be spent stationary, #LiberArx is optimized foremost for comfort aboard focusing on open spaces and residential style furnishings. LiberArx is powered by a large solar array and electric motors, providing both simplified mobility as well as abundant power for life aboard.❞

When Jack Reynolds sold his jointly-owned house earlier this year, he decided bricks and mortar were no longer for him.

I left the UK to live on an all-inclusive cruise ship for £52 a day

As a committed cruise fan, Jack Reynolds has swapped his house in the UK to live on Royal Caribbean cruise liners for almost three months.

A "network state" is basically seasteading but the territory is distributed across existing states instead of floating in international waters?

I just finished the audio book of Aqueous by debut author Jade Shyback! An interesting #Climate #dystopia for Young adults. It was unique in that it included two original songs and was pitch perfect for the YA age group. #seasteading #oceans #books #bookreview #audiobooks https://hollysreadingescapades.blogspot.com/2025/06/book-review-aqueous-by-jade-shyback-45.html?m=1
Book Review: Aqueous by Jade Shyback 4/5 Stars

I got interested in #seasteading a while ago as a concept, but somehow it felt like it was being overtaken by a capitalist drive so that there was always a price attached, and always a price out of my reach, or any others who need housing.

Zur Diskussion: Es gibt immer Akteure, die von Krisen profitieren. Wer also profitiert von Trumps wirtschaftlichem Chaos? Wer profitiert davon, dass Trump den von rechten Akzelerationisten und Schwarzsehern herbeigesehnten Untergang selbst vorantreibt? Wer profitiert von Trumps Purge? Ein Short-Seller wie Thiel könnte auch so jemand sein, der auf den Untergang wettet.

#SeasteadingInstitute asks for donations in their 2025 fundraiser: https://www.seasteading.org/halfway-there/

They want to create so-called "Classification Society" so that seasteads can be "legalized" in order to get maritime flag with insurance, making them not "pirates" 😄 in the international waters.

I can't see me living in the sea, but I like their initiative in principle.

Halfway There!

Thank you to our generous donors who have helped us reach 51% of our fundraising goal for 2025! We are raising money to fund our quest for a maritime flag. We have a five-year plan to create a Classification Society to ensure that seasteads are safe and recognized by the family of nations.  A
