RT @nick_routledge: @nils_gilman Terrific. Perhaps also worth noting that whereas legacy forms of significance typically dismiss 'neighborly eco-social reality' as a defining, co-evolutionary pivot-point for personal and world transformation, it nonetheless remains our primary, bio-cultural 'space for agency'.
@teamhumanshow @rushkoff 1/ Tackle both, at once? Relocalizing experience *and* shedding reification's bastard claim on significance itself, essentially what it takes to get Real. Rohr: "The principle is this: we must struggle with the truth in one concrete place, and then universalize from there."

Copy of tweet: 1/ 'Subsidiarity', in cyberspace and meatspace, a trend. In the locus of personal experience, we recalibrate our absorption, away from the mediated society of the Spectacle, toward where our wellbeing and that of our world finds its *truest* common ground: our home address.

Copy of tweet and quote tweet: Big fan of Monbiot's prescience and acuity around the gravity of climate chaos, but clearly he's one full remove away from a 'prima facie' encounter with regenerative earthwork and its grounded insights into epistemologies and ideologies unhinged from co-evolutionary realpolitik. Quote tweet: Is it any wonder Kabir's no-nonsense appraisal of 'experts' fallen under the spell of their own abstractions holds such resonance for those of us schooled, daily, in the primordial, regenerative power and intelligence of the Real.

Tweet: end/ We describe it as a relocalization of experience, in which a grounded, convivial, eco-social realm catalyzes and flourishes around a bio-cultural model of community, lived into manifestation, enriching human life beyond all comparison to material wealth, values and promise. Elsewhere..."Think of this as a revolution, not of guns, but of consciousness, which will be won by seizing the key myths, archetypes, eschatologies, and ecstasies so that life won't seem worth living unless one is on the transforming energy's side." #GarySynder

Copy of tweet and quote tweet: Local consensus among those of us who've spent decades teaching kids and adults to raise food? The vast majority didn't commit to homecoming for real. So then, for most, an unreal life, adrift in wounds of abstraction, a revolving hall of mirrors, a war of all against all. Quote tweet: Amen, Billy. Hence, just now, the death of the hegemony of reification, certainly as it relates to the totalitarian Spectacle of political economy. I'm always profoundly struck by how difficult it is to describe such things. So, what will survive the separation of Life and Law?
