I heard Annihilation was about grief or relationships. I'm interested af in Scavenger's Reign.

I feel like we have a rough indentation / substructure of how we will process things from birth, but that every event thereon will shape it further.

As well, we know ourselves in reference to others: "I'm like A, not like B, but most like C. What lies beyond C? I might see myself reflected best over there."

"Rules do not exist to bind you; they exist so you may know your freedoms."
Parameters outline a given environment within which to experiment and explore. It's one antidote to Blank Page Syndrome, for example.

Fiction About Nobody

Nebula

I have to disagree entirely about personifying the automated house in There Will Come Soft Rains (fantastic name), but otherwise yes. This is exactly my understanding.

It's also a good description of why I feel so confused by others.
People tend to feel more secure (than I do) in their identities as individuals, group members, and (neurotypical / neurodefault / neurorigid) humans.

Fiction About Nobody

Nebula

"Asked by the Club of Rome to show how major global problems — poverty and hunger, environmental destruction, resource depletion, urban deterioration, unemployment — are related and how they might be solved,

[Jay] Forrester made a computer model and came out with a clear leverage point: Growth."

Computer programmers, eh?

They decide that the best time to process a batch job is at 02:00, and so the poor people of #Swanage get to learn about something happening at 08:00 only if they are insomniacs.

Hello Fediverse, 👋

We are #newhere and would like to introduce ourselves!

Our peer reviewed and open access journal TATuP covers the interdisciplinary field of #technologyassessment (TA) and its neighbours such as, #systemsanalysis, #riskassessment, #practicalethics, #sustainability and #innovationstudies, #STS or #foresight.

Our scope includes findings from the interstices between technological innovation, social change and policy advice.

➡️ Check out all our articles at www.tatup.de!

@NathanHarvey I don't know if you've already seen this but I think you might find it interesting, anarchism from a systems analysis perspective. Perhaps you'll understand it better than I do so far.

A Modern Anarchism: Anarchy

In the last part of this series, we journeyed through a very dark wood. Indeed, we spent more time in critique than most works that I have produced thus far. But after that long path through the forest, I promised you that we would move toward the light outside. Because, though in Anarchist Analy...

Okay I see Mastodon needs hastags to find things. Here's what I'm interested in, hopefully this will help similarly interested people to find me.

Yeah, I'm a nerd.

I'm bad at socials. I didn't even have a birdbox account (that's what we call the Other Place, right?), but it felt like a good time to jump in here anyway.

By way of #introduction, I write #specfic, usually with at least a tinge of #horror. Professionally, I do leadership and management coaching. I also like #reading, #editing, #cooking, #systemsanalysis, #bostonsports, and a bunch of other random stuff.

Hope to make some friends here.
