  1. Loss - the belief in progress and the reality of experiences of loss.

    * Grievance-fuelled violence at home and psychological harm reduction

    * The role of loss within society
    Andreas Reckwitz 's book 'Loss, A Modern Predicament, The first comprehensive study of the role of loss within society", 2025 explains loss not only from a psychological perspective, but also from a sociological one.

    "Loss has come to occupy a central position in late modernity – whether in the consequences of climate change or the entrenchment of negative expectations about the future, the ‘losers’ of post-industrial modernisation or the collective processing of ‘historical wounds’ and of who is acknowledged as the victims and perpetrators of these crimes, in a heightened psychological awareness of vulnerability, in political populism, a nostalgia for things past, or programmes of resilience."

    "Loss is the bread and butter of populism." >>

  2. Why are the US #Democrats so absolutely #useless?

    "Oh, we might skip the State of the Union address to show our displeasure with the administration."

    Are you #morons? That would be a gift to Dear Leader and his #lickspittle #Congress. The #SOTU would be Mango Mussolini speaking to a friendly crowd, all happy, applauding, not a contrary expression to be seen. He'll be happy, smiling, at his most congenial as he basks in the warm glow. You do not do this.

    What you do is attend. Every #Democratic #house member and #senator. Every staffer and guest that they're entitled to bring. Everyone. You put them all in their assigned places.

    And then, when Trump gets up to speak, every single one of them simply turns away from the dictator. Turn their back to him, and *stay* that way for the whole speech. The #optics are great; the cameras show half the crowd with their backs to him, in obvious #protest. The #tyrant has to look at it all through his speech. He's angry. He's spiteful. He puts on a display for the ages, goes off-script, airing every #grievance his Swiss-cheese mind can dredge up. His body language is hostile. #Media coverage shows the event for what it actually is: a #vengeful, #lawless #authoritarian trying to verbally browbeat the legislative branch into submission.

    #DNC, I'm available for consulting if you'd like.

  3. The "State of the Union" address, or as it has come to be known in recent times, the "Airing of Grievances Prior to Taking Grampa's Phone Away, Changing his Diaper, and Putting Him to Bed".

    More seriously, unless they medicate him properly and do something to keep him on-script, Tuesday's performance is likely to be #legendary, and not in a good way.

  4. I truly cannot say what I think about this hot mess that the NYT editorial board allowed Nicholas Kristof to spew.
