"Is it time for a new #revolution?

"The loss of our ability to think is a big deal.

"Dr. White’s briefings and Dr. Cooper’s book were not enough on their own to create this transformation. It was the #CollectiveAction in the wake of these events that ultimately mattered more.

…
"I’m done ceding my brain — the core of all that makes me who I am — to the financial interests of a small number of #technology #billionaires or the shortsighted conveniences of hyperactive communication styles. It’s time to move past fretting about our slide into the #cognitive shallows and decide to actually do something about it.”

The #PrivateSolutionTrap in #CollectiveAction problems across 34 nations

#OpenAccess
@PNASNews

"Collective action problems emerge when individual incentives and group interests are misaligned, as in the case of climate change. Individuals involved in these problems are generally considered to have two options: contribute toward public solutions such as global warming mitigation or free ride. However, many collective action problems today involve a third option of investing in a “private solution” such as local adaptation. The availability of this third option can lead to a private solution trap whereby private solutions are adopted, collectively optimal public solutions are not provided, and existing inequalities are exacerbated. We found that the joint existence of private solutions and wealth inequality had a consistent effect across countries: Participants given a higher endowment adopted private solutions almost twice as often as those given a lower endowment, regardless of whether it was determined by luck or merit, and contributed proportionally less toward public solutions. Wealth inequality increased in every country and those given lower endowments were often left unprotected as public solutions were not provided."

🚀 Big milestone for 3mpwrApp 🚀

We’re officially connected with Apple & moving into production build 🔥

That means 3mpwrApp is now available across:
📱 Apple (iOS)
🤖 Android
🌐 PWA Web App

Built from lived experience for injured workers & persons with disabilities — this is more than an app… it’s a movement toward support, advocacy, and real tools that actually help.

⚠️ We’re now looking for committed beta testers before full App Store launch.

We've been taught to recognize power when it's loud. When it's marching out front, making demands, commanding the room. But some of the most consequential power in history never asked for the spotlight. It just showed up. Did the work. Moved things.
