Everyone is returning to normal, except for the millions of people who didn’t make it and the millions more whose health doesn’t allow them to dial back precautions. Everything that did come back is tinged with loss and haunted by ghosts. theatlantic.com/family/archi…

HOW BIG ARE THE PROFIT MARGINS IN FASHION? 🧵 Someone recently made a TikTok about the Brick Watch Company debacle, and one of the channel's viewers asked how this is any different from other luxury companies making things for pennies and selling them for thousands.

Absolutely love this! The Well-being of Future Generations Act, which Wales is putting into law and practice, is something many countries could follow.
What Wales is doing today, the world will do tomorrow. We are the only country in the world with a law to protect the interests of our children and future generations. On #WorldFuturesDay, share this video and comment 'We're in on the Act!' 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿❤️ youtu.be/0-8bn-I_NP8

Making peace with being uncomfortable and immersed in not-knowing is one of the skills all of us need to be good at to constructively deal with what's coming at us. This sounds like an awesome intervention.
Join us for 90 mins of not knowing. Explore the regenerative potential of uncertainty. Witness the magic of listening to others unknowingness. Experience a space free from solutions & fixing. The times are calling for more wisdom and less cleverness👇 lnkd.in/ecSiWrYp

Slowly, slowly making my way through this gem of a book. Highlight from today: In the sacred time of ritual, people can connect with all previous experiences the group has had, or will have in the future. Thanks @billymatheson for all your years of mahi that's gone into this.
