Reposted by Benn GoochPetra Michaela @petramichaela.bsky.social · 18/06/2026It feels strange that humanity dreams of finding life on distant planets while forests here vanish every day. A forest takes decades to grow, to cool the air, protect wildlife, and create peace—yet only moments to destroy.

Benn Gooch @benngooch.bsky.social · 08/05/2026We have ‘15 minute city’ conspiracy here in Oxford, UK. I don’t understand the whole thing but when there was a demonstration fascinating overlap with COVID-19/antivaxx conspiracy theories. Some people had an antivaxx banner in one hand and a ‘15 minute city hoax’ in the other. Curious psychology. 1334

Benn Gooch @benngooch.bsky.social · 16/04/2026My hunch is that many users would have a less critical view. The point I hope is clear is that anyone using the technology should think very carefully about how it changes their thinking and behaviour because it certainly does.
