#tangping — Public Fediverse posts

Was in Asien als Tang Ping oder bai lan bekannt ist äußert sich im Westen als loneliness epidemic.

Menschen glauben nicht mehr daran daß es möglich ist oder das es erreichbar ist durch Anstrengung glück und Zufriedenheit zu erhalten.

In Asien führt das dazu das nur das nötigste gemacht wird und Karriere weniger wichtig ist.
Im Westen verliert Karriere auch an Bedeutung aber vor allem erkennt man es an der Vereinzelung und Vereinsamung weil im Westen das schaffen und Leisten der große Konsens war.
Ohne Konsens keine Gemeinschaft.

I never want to be anyone
I always want to remain life
Only
I don't ever want to tell life what it is

Except life itself opens something for me that takes me away from my people for extended periods of time

I won't seek such openings myself

I'm a minimalist
Because I want to pay attention to my people
And not some identity giving system

Covid brought tang ping (laying down) in china.
People were tired of careers who didn't pay off and chose to lower their professional commitment and economic ambitions, prioritize psychological health over economic materialism, and simplify their goals, while still being fiscally productive to meet their essential needs.(wiki)
in the US they speak of the great resignation. because more people then usual switched professions as a consequence of COVID measures.

I believe the numbers in Europe are not so different from the US

I received the raise I asked for. From 48 hours a week off to 72.

Time and youth can't be earned.

7.10: Ariel & Christina Discuss the Solarpunk Merits of Walkaway by Cory Doctorow

Cory Doctorow’s 2017 novel Walkaway has a reputation in solarpunk circles as a great example of a solarpunk lifestyle, and a must-read book for everyone from the individual who lives and breathes solarpunk to the solarpunk-curious to general science fiction fans. But what is it about Walkaway that gives it solarpunk cred? Ariel and Christina ponder this, discussing features of the novel that could be considered solarpunk, and some that might be more post-cyberpunk than anything, and how some of the ideologies and technologies are or have been applied in our present world. Is the world of Walkaway an achievable solarpunk paradise, or a nice hopeful story featuring very cool gadgets and bites of lefty philosophy? Or something else entirely? What is the draw, here, anyway? Join us to think through some of the quandaries and ideas the book raises.

#BaiLan- und #TangPing-Bewegungen von Chinas jungen Generationen machen mir Hoffnung. »Rumgammeln« bzw. »Lass es verroten« als passiv-aggressive Teilnahmeverweigerung am Rattenrennen. Täte uns als große Sozialbewegung auch gut.

@pezmico youth in china have started a movement to that effect #TangPing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tang_ping

Höchstes Gesundheitsrisiko

Die Sache mit der Arbeit
Statistisch erwiesen ist: das höchste Risiko für Ihre und meine Gesundheit ist Arbeiten. So, wie der gefährlichste Ort für den Menschen zuhause ist: Gewalttaten und Unfälle geschehen am meisten in der eigenen Wohnung. Diese Wahrheiten wollen viele lieber nicht wissen, und machen vorsorglich kein Gewese darum, vor allem kein Mediengewese. […]

Is it okay to live with my parents at age n?

“If you're regularly asking “should I move out?”, chances are your life will improve significantly after doing so. I've convinced myself for years that it wasn't worth it, but living alone has been nothing but nourishing.”

Tao Te Ching
Stephen Mitchell #translation

Ch. 20

Stop thinking, and end your problems.
What difference between yes and no?
What difference between success and failure?
Must you value what others value,
avoid what others avoid?

How ridiculous!

Other people are excited,
as though they were at a parade.
I alone don’t care,
I alone am expressionless,
like an infant before it can smile.

Other people have what they need;
I alone possess nothing.

I alone drift about,
like someone without a home.
I am like an idiot, my mind is so empty.

Other people are bright;
I alone am dark.
Other people are sharper;
I alone am dull.
Other people have a purpose;

I alone don’t know.
I drift like a wave on the ocean,
I blow as aimless as the wind.

I am different from ordinary people.
I drink from the Great Mother’s breasts.

China’s Slacker Youths: Why They Went From ‚Lying Flat’ To ‚Let It Rot’

„Tang Ping” (leżeć płasko) był ruchem z 2021 roku, który odrzucał kulturę pracy w Chinach. Teraz przemienił się w bardziej ekstremalny „Bai Lan” (pozwolić gnić). Co stoi za tym nowym zjawiskiem?
