GM #nostr, thinking through how our existence could probably be defined by the word “overextension”.
By overextension I mean we stretch things past their natural capacity.
We’ve overextend:
Money
Government
Food
Environment
Schools
Communities
Purpose
Humanity
Fitness
Entertainment
Family
Business
Am I advocating for degrowth? I guess I kind of am, centralisation is the scourge of humanity.
It’s ironic that my favourite show, Star Trek: TNG, shows a future of almost perfect bureaucratic bliss. If such a thing was possible it would be great.
"I feel I need a holiday, a very long holiday, as I have told you before…Why, I feel all thin, sort of stretched, if you know what I mean: Like butter that has been scraped over too much bread. That can’t be right. I need a change, or something.” - Fellowship of the Ring
