We could actually simplify our lives, and rid us of this social anxiety - man…!”

This is a con­ver­sa­ti­on that I and many peop­le are try­ing to initate…”

PR, PR, take yours now, tell a friend, share it around. The moti­va­tio­nal spea­ker cir­cuit got fun­ding again. And god are this years spea­kers neat and clean, and good looking.

What gets me - is the drea­my look, the bedroom voice, and the ASMR cadence though. When he speaks about Cana­di­ans shed­ding anxie­ties and fear, - and tarsands…

Modern day preachers, man - they real­ly are the best preachers the world has ever seen (Air­Pods included).

But also expect them to tell you, that this is about guilt and shame, and darkness and admit­ting all the dama­ge that we’­ve inflic­ted (I’m sure that this will take place at COP 27 in Egypt, and COP 28 in UAE - cant wait for Johan­nes Stangls Report from UAE - you can alrea­dy see the head­lines, “We are ama­zed that Fri­days for Future made it all the way to the UAE”, sor­ry I dig­ress, …) - just not all of it. The part whe­re you actual­ly renoun­ce part of your per­so­nal con­sump­ti­on, is glo­rious of cour­se, almost ethe­ri­al. Reminds me of the “Angels cho­ral” in the Pro­ject Syn­di­ca­te cam­pai­gn a while ago.

Save an afri­can ame­ri­can from can­cer alley” is a tal­king point in Cana­da appar­ent­ly. Plus points for cul­tu­ral diver­si­ty on that one. Oh, and I espe­cial­ly like his talk about a cir­cu­lar earth. Its always good to remind peop­le about earth being cir­cu­lar, for the collec­ti­ve switch that needs to hap­pen. To “live har­mo­nious­ly with this pla­net […] and all the peop­le we share this beau­ti­ful coun­try with”.

Ah. So good. Spon­so­red by Long term- and faith based inves­tors. That also were the first ones to pivot to sus­tainab­le invest­ment vehicles.

Nachtrag

zum Bei­trag “When Khash­og­gi beco­mes sub­text”.

DW fragt heu­te “Is Sau­di Ara­bia win­ning the fight to reha­bi­li­ta­te its image?”

Im Arti­kel selbst dann bereits mit geän­der­ter Über­schrift (das ist die­ser bein­har­te, eis­kal­te Jour­na­lis­mus, dem man sich natür­lich ver­pflich­tet fühlt), aber für den Auf­rei­ßer (auf der Haupt­sei­te) selbst eig­net sichs so doch sehr gut.

The king­dom remains an auto­cra­cy. The expan­si­on of civil rights is a gift from the ruler rather than any respon­se to pres­su­re,” Simon Hen­der­son, who heads the Bern­stein Pro­gram on Gulf and Ener­gy Poli­cy at US think tank The Washing­ton Insti­tu­te, wro­te in Octo­ber.

edit: Am sel­ben Tag schreibt der Stan­dard wie­der einen Pro­ject Syn­di­ca­te Arti­kel ab, in dem uns der Direk­tor des ‘Euro­pean Coun­cil of For­eign Rela­ti­ons’ (das geht?) aktu­el­le euro­päi­sche Außen­po­li­tik am Bei­spiel der Napo­leo­ni­schen Krie­ge erklärt. Zwei Tage nach­dem Matt Taib­bi bei Rogan das Pro­pa­gan­da­mo­dell nach Chom­sky und Her­man bestä­tigt. Taib­bi war mal der, der den nor­ma­len Leu­ten die Vor­gän­ge der Finanz­kri­se 2008 näher gebracht hat - und damit zur Per­so­na non gra­ta wurde.

Energy poverty vs. ‘but others are more optimistic’

06. Dezember 2021

DW hits its stri­de again, with a spo­ke­spie­ce for a high­ly net­wor­ked euro­pean intelligentsia. 😉

The­re is a risk, that jour­na­lism could be not repor­ting on whats coi­ned “ener­gy pover­ty” by at least one group of experts, but oh well, the­re are some, that see it more posi­tively… You have to honor the big­ger pic­tu­re here!

(The first out­burst into a muf­fled *ha* was invol­un­ta­ry, but then almost instant­ly inter­rup­ted by the thin­king pro­cess set­ting in…)
