#FediCollective #ThirdSpace #EconomyOfWisdom
Article by Samantha Anne Carrillo conjures up the #ThirdSpace by literary and #cultural critic Homi K. Bhabha, and brings into conversation with #Chicana #feminist Gloria Anzaldúa, #postcolonial thought, and #resistance by #queer & #trans #artists to social & physical borders.
An #intertextuality and pleasure to read, the article delivers new liberatory ways of seeing, thinking, #borderlands, #hope, #solidarity and the #futures.
FediCollective is a Third Space designed for people who find traditional networking dysregulating.
Our "Brew & Build" sessions are small, quiet, and purposefully introvert-friendly.
We skip the high-pressure noise and move straight into grounded connection. We limit our circle to 9 people to keep the energy stable. No forced rules—just mutual respect, active listening, and space to breathe.
Whether you’re a builder, a creative, or a heart-centred founder, you don't have to "perform" here. We use a structured flow to make sharing easy, followed by quiet co-working to ground your ideas.
If you're tired of "loud" networking and want a place where your nervous system can finally relax while you connect, join our next circle in Burnaby. ☀️

The data is out: Loneliness is an epidemic. The "Third Space" is being reborn.
CNBC reports a massive shift. People are ditching noisy bars and high-pressure networking for "Wellness Third Spaces." We're talking nervous system safety, real community, and emotional repair.
This is why I built the FediCollective.
Tech and Marketing friends: your work is high-pressure. Your "Hardware" (your body) needs a place to discharge stress without the nightclub noise. We provide a sober, inclusive container in Vancouver to regulate and restore.
This isn't just "networking." It's a living system for Social Coherence. We swap forced rules for mutual respect.
Stop isolating in your home office. Step into the stable power of a regulated collective. ☀️
Join us every last Sunday in Metro Vancouver: https://fedicollective.lovable.app/

For liberatory systems change, one might want to check:
#structures, #culture, #materiality, #agency, #theunconscious, #time, #place, and many other things;
other world(s) and ways of being, seeing, relating, creating, working and producing that are not extractive but #just, liberatory and in #solidarity are possible
Libraries and parks are the heart of our neighborhoods. Use them or lose them. #thirdspace #community #publichealth
