Filmmaker Jeanna Kolesova @jeannakolesova.bsky.social made a moving speculative documentary about peat & peatlands in the USSR, drawing, in part, on stories from my 🔥Burning Swamps🔥. The trailer & stills give you a sense of what I struggled to convey in writing 👉 jeannakolesova.com/in-zombie-fire
B/W stills from the documentary In Zombie Fire. On top, a man with a hat standing in a landscape of trees and houses, next to an old fashioned camera; on the bottom: a woman in a skirt involved in turning peat sods

I did the thing you are never supposed to do. I wrote a (rough draft of a) textbook: Theories of Rational Decision It's technical, but from a philosophical perspective. It focuses on the normative theory but touches on some behavioral issues as well. raw.githubusercontent.com/kzollman/Rat...

It's what's known as a DOS attack - denial-of-simplicity-and-strength attack. To inhibit capacity for abstraction, creativity and useful theory. @kjhealy.co kieranhealy.org/files/papers...
