  1. Well…2025 was the year the masks came off the old system: nobody is pretending it’s there to help us, or that those who have stolen the reins of power have any intention of ‘saving the planet’, still less resolving the horrors of inequity or anything at all but feeding the ravenously hungry ghost of capitalism.

    So how do we bring power to those with wisdom and wisdom to those with power? If we have the destructive capacity of gods, how do we find in ourselves the compassion, prudence and wisdom of gods? What does it take to lay the foundations for emergence into a new system – one that we’d be proud to leave to the generations that come after us?

    In this solo episode, Manda Scott, host of the Accidental Gods podcast, reflects on the year just gone and looks ahead to the one that’s coming and lays out ideas for how we can be the change we need to see in the world. Join us for New Year’s eve and let’s find ways we can step into 2026 with grace, courage, bringing the best of ourselves in service to life.

  2. What Freedoms are we losing? What do we really mean by sovereignty? What happens when we click „I agree“ and give up control of our systems? 🫣

  3. CW: Not so quick: free trade sucks, too.

    I just read a headline that Macron (France) and and Merz (Germany) aim to ratify quickly the free trade agreement Mercosur (EU-South America).

    Yes, the Mercosur many environmentalists, unions and smallscale farmers (e.g. @ViaCampesinaEU ) protested against.

    With all the accelerated developments around Trump's unstable tariff announcements, we easily forget that free trade is not automatically good thing.

    It's good for the large companies, the ones that can relocate or source their goods from the cheapest corner of the world. Such as the Brazilian companies in the hands of Bolsonaro-supporters, that happily destroy the Amazonas to grow cheap GMO soy for Spanish pig farmers that pollute the groundwater with nitrates and have immigrant workers under extremely bad conditions cutting meat to be exported to China.

    Free trade does not solve, and even often aggravates, the problems of workers or the environment. Until a few months ago (specifically: until a former Blackrock executive and neoliberal-conservative ideologist was elected German chancellor), the EU was even considering to establish a CO2-tariff, so that imported goods would have to price in their emissions, in order to not give them an unfair advantage against the companies producing with stricter environmental policies inside the EU[*]. Another very important regulation about human rights in the supply chain got also decaffeinated.

    Now, this "the world united against Trump's tariffs"-dynamics will be used by neoliberal assholes to push their agenda of "removing barriers to free trade".

    Be careful with whom you associate, these days.

    * yes, simultaneously, tariffs and regulations are used by the EU to maintain neocolonial advantages and to continue the exploitation of the Global South. With these power structures in place, *every* situation will be used to favour some and hurting many.

    Haha, wollta grade schreiben "auf dem Papier".

    Aber ganz so einfach ist es ja nicht. zB ist unsere Erde kein abgeschlossenes System. Energie kommt von aussen dazu.
    Und viele Ressourcen sind in der Praxis endlos (nicht-kapitalistische industrielle Verschwendungsgesellschaft mal vorausgesetzt).

    Ausserdem kann zB Handwerk ja schon Dinge herstellen, die danach einen grösseren Wert für die Menschen haben. Also sozusagen "Wohlstandsakkumulation durch akkumulierte Arbeit".

    Bis jetzt basierte unser Wirtschaftssystem ja lange Zeit darauf, dass natürliche ressourcen sozusagen erst einen Wert erhalten wenn sie "abgebaut" sind. Deshalb spürt der Markt das mit dem geschlossenen System nicht.
    Und inzwischen ist ja eh alles total enthemmt und die Bitcoins vermehren sich von selbst und die Banken produzieren Geld durch Zinsen trululu🤔

    Aber vielleicht haben die lieben Menschen der @PluraleOekonomikDresden da gute gedanken dazu?

    (Link zum Netzwerk: plurale-oekonomik.de/)

    Ansonsten kann ich auch wirklich das Buch "Regenerative Economics" empfehlen (online einsehbar)

    Es wird derzeit noch weitergeschrieben, die ersten Kapitel sind allerdings schon verfügbar :)

  5. A few months back I asked what other everyday word could be used to create an answer to 'economic growth'. Today I was thinking about regenerative economics. Which sounds great but wonky.

    But what about economic health?

    Since you are interested in economics, I strongly suggest you to start reading the very nice textbook (the author is still in the writing process, currently the first three chapters are published, but expect something like a new chapter every two-three months).
    Then, you will have a good foundation to evaluate critically the scientific publications around the topic.

  7. I’m excited to be speaking at in London on Oct 10 alongside Pete Corke! We’ll be on the Main Stage at 12:20 discussing how real-world assets and can support . If you're attending, I’d love for you to join us.

  8. Currently, most of our economics related to natural resources revolve around removing something from the environment. What if we could build economic systems based on living nature? bit.ly/3vQfSOD

    Big thanks to Pete and Kwaxala for the enlightened perspective!

    Is also now in the house.

    Sporting a sweet freshly published #OpenAccess review paper covering #RegenerativeEconomics

    [Sorry spamming slightly but more, please-- the planet is finite and spherical, a closed space, and we ain't going anywhere else soon enough. The present notion of our economy is strictly ephemeral, unsuited for a run of more than a handful of centuries-- and the clock is already significantly advanced.]
