“We are, and always will be, responsible for each other, and have to learn to live with the consequences of each others' actions. It's a silly libertarian fantasy to pretend otherwise.”

On practising "soft skills" for a hard future Opposition education spokesperson, Julian Leeser, has apparently decided that the most important issue to weigh into on tertiary education right now is abolishing group assignments.* Funnily enough, I actually went to uni with Julian, at UNSW law school way back last century.
"What is #collapsology and what role does a “collapsologist” play?" ~bodhi-paul-chefurka
"Economic problems are generally framed in terms of increasing debt loads and widening income disparity.
Structural problems include the rise of authoritarian governments, and various issues related to complexity. Joseph Tainter has written an excellent short book on the collapse of complex societies in which he speculates that collapse might result from the diminishing marginal return or utility of solutions to increasingly complex problems."

"“Collapsology” isn’t a formal field of scientific study. Instead, it’s a way of describing the open-source research of individuals who are concerned that society or civilization may collapse at some point, possibly in the near future, due to the convergence of various internal and external pressures. These pressures include environmental, ecological, economic and structural problems, among others.
Chief among the environmental problems is climate change, closely followed by ocean acidification. The main way in which climate change could cause social collapse is believed to be food supply issues caused by extreme weather events such as droughts and floods."
Will be part of a discussion panel on global crises and doom scenarios at Tec Art, Rotterdam, today (Saturday), 20.30
"Society has a curious tendency to fixate on annoying daily struggles, while the dread of larger, more urgent crises fades into the background noise of our lives. How else can we explain why, even in the face of extreme crises, nothing seems to actually change? Is it because Doomsday simply isn’t as bad as Monday?"
with Süeda Isik, Florian Cramer, Sophia Bulgakova, Ronald Hünneman, Cecile van Bruggen (moderator), at Katoenhuis Rotterdam, Keilestraat 9c, 3029 BP Rotterdam, 20.30-21.45, 29th March 2025
Two fresh news times about the world going to sh*t:
- Investor buys up former German Third Reich, prisoner-built concentration camp tunnel system in order to develop it into post-apocalypse survival bunkers for the rich
- Larger-than-life sculpture of Elon Musk is towed on a Tesla Cybertruck through Texas as a sales stunt for an NFT
KZ-Häftlinge errichteten bei Halberstadt ein unterirdisches Tunnelsystem, Tausende Menschen starben. Seit Kurzem gehört das Areal einem Investor – der dort offenbar luxuriöse Unterkünfte für Krisenzeiten bauen will.
Quarantimes 124: Kollaps
Holy Roman #Empire oder so: #Kollaps und #Collapsology sind in aller Munde. Doch wer sieht was zusammenbrechen und zieht daraus welche Schlüsse? Es gibt große Unterschiede zwischen rechten Preppern und emanzipatorisch-solidarischen Strategien. Für Alfredo, der mich eine andere Art der Freude gelehrt hat.

“Facing extinction” read by the author, Catherine Ingram. This used to be available as a paper to read, but she withdrew that option so she can make updates more easily. A 90-minute listen. #collapsology #SixthExtinction #ClimateCrisis
""Dealing with large-scale threats demands considerable societal cohesion." As an example, he cites the Covid pandemic. Societies that showed higher levels of cohesion and the capacity for collective action before Covid broke out navigated the pandemic more effectively and successfully implemented the necessary distancing measures."
