  We have reached a catastrophic tipping point in #climatechange - where mass migration to cooler climates becomes a much more likely necessity and not just a desirable. Impossible to remotely fully grasp the devastation being wreaked very fast and very broadly in Spain and France. Imagine the billions pumped into destroying land and people in wars was spent helping fight climate change ...

  @randahl@mastodon.social This is beyond brilliant. Maybe the start of backlash at often indulgently reckless natures of the powerful who have a chilling indifference towards those they adversely affect.

  @urlyman@mastodon.social Very much so. The human mind seems to gravitate far too much towards those in the spotlight, ignoring lots of great stuff in the shadows.

  @gwenbeads@mathstodon.xyz I did make this in clay - rather different from a bunny though!

  @gwenbeads@mathstodon.xyz Just bloody good. Excuse profanity. Exquisite concept and execution. Kind of want to make the bunny in clay now. But would fall short of your level of precision ...

  @QasimRashid@mastodon.social His own teenage daughter was the subject of his sexual attention. Kind of hard to hide is perversions. And STILL he holds the most powerful position in his land. Astonishingly stupid human race to allow this.

  @themediumkahuna@tech.lgbt The normalisation of trivial matters so stupid. Like wearing a throat throttling tie at work in case higher management popped over.

  @Natasha_Jay@tech.lgbt Basically we have what were social media platforms now commandeered as people control and indoctrination mechanisms. Antisocial systems now.

  @benlockwood@ecoevo.social And the media endlessly trotting out the importance of the bloody economy and growth - so often that it gets normalised. The repeat simple message that Hitler used. The economy principally serves those who really do not need 'more'. Bhutan government have a better idea - happiness of the people is their number 1 priority.

  #Schools need to start teaching social skills. Face to face communication skills badly in decline - harder to develop when left too late.

  @smutmag@mstdn.social Seems that online culture is super forceful in promoting status and appearance as all that matters. I am 69 and you get to that age really the folly of status.

  @JugglingWithEggs If you visit the Shorpy web site and scan through some of their old glass plate building photographs, you will see how deeply sadly far we have gone from quality and beauty to profit-serving.

  @QasimRashid@mastodon.social Brave man in a way - far too many are chillingly exploited by unscrupulous business owners. Stepping back, profit channelled into the pockets of a few was never how Capitalism needed to go - profit was there to sustain a business. Resource renewal, research, contingency. Commandeering it by lining already full pockets was just insanely bad. Distributing such an excess across the workers much more sane. Besides, workers then happier and thereby work better.

  Made a #clay sculpture and it looked a bit bland. Kind of. So I added some #bead structures. The shape on the left was mostly a result of chance but loved how it looked.

  Some 4 decades younger than I but balanced engaging conversation. She is lively anti-establishment independent thinker but very warm of nature. Both in bands. She stopped to talk for an hour last year in another park. Very open minded engaging creature. He is very placid by comparison. Before that a chat with a passer by who asked to sit - professor of criminology researching restorative justice. Another palpably good chat but quite different.

  It might bemuse you to know that the #subconscious pretty well does all our #thinking - the #conscious mind too slow and lumbering to do anything other than steer and vet what the subconscious delivers. So can we really claim to be superior thinkers when #AI uses much the same kind of neural net pattern matching that our subconscious uses?
