#survivingthefuture — Public Fediverse posts

RE: https://mstdn.social/@DarkOptimism/115720005925845085

I just enrolled on this myself, despite the overlap with our own ongoing #SurvivingTheFuture:#TheDeeperDive.

It simply feels a bit unmissable!! 😍 ✊

It was a joy today to meet for our StF monthly gathering on what happened to be the late #DavidFleming's 86th birthday!

A chance to reflect together on all the ways that his inspired work continues to irrigate and shape our lives.

A big thank you to you dear friend, for all that our meeting unlocked in my life, and ultimately in so many lives ❤️

#CassadyRosenblum is a memorable alumna of #SurvivingTheFuture, not least for sharing images like this with us all!

Now she's starting a new print magazine — Thunder Perfect Mind — devoted to the goddess (▼)

"By goddess we do not mean a girl deity so much as the intelligent, pulsing power of life itself. She speaks as an archetypal force who lives inside of all of us—men, women, and every other expression of her wild, teeming creativity."

Thanks @danielquinn

This is exactly the perspective we brought to creating our #SurvivingTheFuture online community.

Anyone who wants to talk over the grief side or the 'how to respond' side, our door's always open 🙂

And from January our #DeeperDive will offer the chance to join a small group discussing such with the likes of #NateHagens, #TadzioMüller, #IsaFrémeaux, #LeahAvene, #MarkBoyle and #RachelDonald ✊🏼

Thanks to the hashtag I stumbled on this comment while searching up something else!

So as editor of my late mentor Fleming's books thought I'd mention Bramble Bear that his full Dictionary for the Future and How to Survive It is also now available free (and searchable!) at the awesome:

Meanwhile we're prepping for #SurvivingTheFuture: #TheDeeperDive, in case of interest:

Ok, enrollment's open for this winter's #SurvivingTheFuture: #TheDeeperDive!

Be one of fifty participants in real conversation with the likes of #NateHagens, #LeahAvene, #RachelDonald, @muellertadzio, #IsabelleFrémeaux and #MarkBoyle about how it makes sense to live through such times...

Let’s be clear: none of us have neat answers to the impossible conundrums of the day.
Likely there are none.

And that raises some pretty important questions for those of us alive now:
https://survivingthefuture.darkoptimism.org/thedeeperdive/

So Microsoft #SmartScreen has started blocking our #Peertube videos for participants on our Sterling College course '#SurvivingTheFuture: #APathThroughTumultuousTimes' (https://survivingthefuture.darkoptimism.org )

In this case, a harmless self-hosted video of our session with #DavidAbram.

Is this part of the tech bros making life difficult for those trying to use alternatives to their established default providers (YouTube, in this case) or is there some more innocent explanation?

#TheDevilIsInTheDefault

It's not given to me to know how the dead feel about their birthdays, but I today raise a glass to my late friend #DavidFleming, who would have been 85 today 🍻

For the legacy of inspiration which led, among so much else, to our whole #SurvivingTheFuture community, which another 50 folk will join next week

It's also not given to me to know how my life might have gone without him. Or if that question even makes sense..

But my gratitude is profound — thank you, dear man!

@markhburton @Lylamehta

And #FrugalHedonism is another wonderful book in the family! 🙂

Btw, #LeanLogic's available free and in full on this lovely website, custom-built by a fan (with the publisher's blessing):
https://leanlogic.online/

But @pvonhellermannn, if you still plan to join us for #TheDeeperDive, when you enrol you'll get free access to (both audio/text versions of) #SurvivingTheFuture, which I produced as a more accessible gateway to his work, so might help shrink your reading list!

My piece about Sterling College's forthcoming #SurvivingTheFuture: #TheDeeperDive

With me, #VandanaShiva, #LylaJune, #NateHagens, #IsabelleFrémeaux, #RobHopkins and others!
Just an amazing experience, with spaces going fast..

(also a small conversational gathering later today, 7-8pm BST) 😊🤫

A thrill to announce that enrolments for this winter's #SurvivingTheFuture: #TheDeeperDive are now open - it's one of my favourite things! 😍

Be among a small group exploring the future with me, #IainMcGilchrist, #VandanaShiva, #NateHagens and others.

The testimonials at the below link speak to the experience. And all offered on trust-based pricing so that finances are no barrier to *anyone*.

Any questions, just ask, and hopefully we'll get to know each other soon!

From January, over 8 weeks, we'll build a small online community of 50 and discuss our times with the likes of #NateHagens, #StephenJenkinson, #IsabelleFrémeaux, #MarkBoyle, #SherriMitchell, #TimDeChristopher, #RobHopkins & #VandanaShiva.

I'll be running '#SurvivingTheFuture: #TheDeeperDive' through Vermont's #SterlingCollege.
