Just published a new Kairos article, in a different style than the usual: kairos-research.org/illness-trau... It describes my own experience with ME/CFS (a severe chronic illness) and tries to explain the strangely cruel behavior that people often display in response to visible illness.

Illness, trauma, and cruelty

Before you engage with this essay, dear reader, please heed my warning. I have made my best attempt to show how cruelty breaks people, and how it’s embedded in the deepest of our cultural structure. I...

If you’re doing any writing or posting about the phrase “transgender ideology” it should be to say one of the following things: — it’s a meaningless dog whistle — trans people had nothing to do with this shooting — there’s no evidence shooter was trying to show support for trans people/trans rights

Today I wrote about a general tendency to accept atrocious premises, and the need to reject fascism's false choices in order to find expansive and imaginative paths forward. Breaking the premise, embracing the obstacles, pursing everything. www.the-reframe.com/there-is-no-...

We actually aren't constrained into atrocious premises by thought exercises. Obstacles are a reason to fight, not an excuse to quit. Our friends and neighbors aren't distractions..

this iconic advertising copywriter named Kathy Hepinstall Parks died over the weekend and I wanted to share something from her website I thought Bluesky would like

Why should I write better when a machine can do it for me?
Because actually no one can do it for you, because your voice is unique among all the people on earth. Siri never petted a horse's neck. Alexa has never been ghosted by the captain of the football team. But you have lived, your heart is beating, you have suffered, and you have something important to say. It's a human's job, to use words, and whatever job you give to a machine, that part of your brain goes dark. Maybe it's worth it when it comes to remembering phone numbers and directions, but when that part of your brain that uses words goes dark, that's a vast area that's very close to your soul. Don't let some internet platform convince you that what you have to say and create isn't worthwhile. Words are the echo of your soul. Honing that echo matters.

You’ll never hear me dump on Education, but when post2ndaries are run like (taxpayer subsidized) businesses that offer micro-credentials and hyper-specialized programs with 0 transferable skills in a job market that changes every 5 yrs, then “education” is just job orientation you’re paying to do.

When the entirety of success criteria is "something" GenAI truly shines. No technology ever before has been capable of producing so much something, so quickly. And the prevailing system allows GenAI users to shove the something downstream without any kind of quality control, consequence-free.

Not only that, a "conversation" is a prompt conditioning the responses, taking it further away from actual intent with every leading question he asks until it's a mirror showing him all his own biases and assumptions.

Make what is detestable and abhorrent attractive: fewer people will reject the message and fight back. Set up the “shot” to resemble a movie set: fewer people will be able to attach it to real life. Remove the realness: you remove the empathy needed for real people to act on behalf of others.
