Evidence that religion, sexuality, and all the shallow ideas of romance is not enough to define their relationship -- it is their similar intuition, and his amazing gift for reading people. Also.. this is like Sammy!!!

digging the words into the page sounds adjacent to Seamus Heaney's "Digging" which analogizes writing to digging: https://hypothes.is/a/J-z8OgfQEe-0adtJyXyb3g

There's something here which suggests pens, typewriters, keyboards, etc. as direct extended mind objects as tools for thought. A sense of rumination and expulsion simultaneously.

quote - digital decentralised governance - implications of for civilization

• (see below)

• If that definition of civilization is accepted, that means that the creation of a non-local digital layer of infrastructure,

  • which allows for the massive self-organization and mutual coordination of trans-local projects,
• is in itself a fundamental challenge to the civilizational model as we have known it for the last five thousand years.

Extremer Regen hat in Pakistan und Afghanistan mindestens 135 Todesfälle verursacht und große Flächen bebauten Landes zerstört. Vorausgegangen war eine lange Periode ungewöhnlicher Trockenheit. Die Regenfälle wurden von demselben Wettersystem verursacht, das kurz zuvor Überflutungen in den Vereinigten Arabischen Emiraten und Oman verursacht hatte.

- In Ernest Becker's book, The Birth and Death of Meaning, Becker provides a summary of the ego from a Freudian perspective that is salient to Nagel's work
    - The ego creates time and humans, occupying a symbolosphere are timebound creatures that create the sense of time to order sensations and perceptions
    - The ego becomes the central reference point for the construct of time
- If the anthropocene is a problem
- and we wish to migrate towards an ecological civilization in which there is greater respect for other species, 
    - a symbiocene
- this means we need to empathize with other species 
- If our species is timebound but the majority of other species are not, 
    - then we must bridge that large gap by somehow experiencing what it's like to be an X ( where X can be a bat or many other species)

  • As David Chalmer observes with the philosophical idea of "zombies", strictly speaking, we impute the existence of other consciousnesses, including other human consciousnesses
  • This construction of the "other consciousness" begins at birth with the socialization of the neonate and infant from its mother and father.
• To claim that other species display consciousness is an imputation.and based upon external signs, not internal experience.
  • See Gregg Henrique's Unified Theory of Knowledge (TOK) to understand how this statement reflects a mixing up of different types of consciousness

Ernst Busch (1900-1980) was the singer of the proletariat and of proletarian history, a nuanced king of the democratic worker’s song. As the “singing heart of the working class” (according to Hanns Eisler), he performed songs of Tucholsky and Kästner in the Berlin cabarets Stuff and Nonsense (Larifari), the Catacombs (Katakombe) and in the Cabaret of the Comedians (Kabarett der Komiker); he also sang at demonstrations and worker’s meetings. After emigrating in 1933, he took part in the Spanish Civil War, and when interned in France, he led the theater group at the camp Gurs and performed in Peter Pan’s cabaret. He was extradited to Germany in 1943 and sentenced to a life term in prison. After liberation, the “Gründgens of the GDR” revived his career as a powerful actor of the people in numerous films and in Berlin ensembles. “Not an entertainer, not a sentimentalist, nor a dry reciter of revolution, but rather a militant artist of our times. When Busch sings political songs, they retain their humor in all their seriousness, and their seriousness in their humor. They keep us alert. They are hits and others keep singing them.”

Überblick zu den Dürren des Sommers mit Verweisen auf Studien

Das Wasserversorgungssystem des Iran ist vor allem wegen der Entnahme des Wassers für Landwirtschaft und Industrie komplett und irreparabel zusammengebrochen. Dabei ist das Land immer mehr Hitzewellen ausgesetzt, bei denen in einigen Gebieten Temperaturen von über 55° C erreicht werden. Durch die Verarmung in den letzten Jahren ist die Bevölkerung in den betroffenen Provinzen besonders verwundbar. Reportage der New York Times. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/07/23/world/middleeast/iran-heat-water.htmltopic

Afghanistan ist zur Zeit von Starkregen und Flutwellen betroffen und leidet zugleich unter Hitzewellen. Die Überflutungen sind das Ergebnis der Ausdehnung der Monsungebiete nach Nordwesten. Die Temperaturen haben in Afghanistan seit 1950 um 1,8 Grad zugenommen. Unter anderem drei aufeinanderfolgende Dürren haben den Grundwasserspiegel in Afghanistan in fünf Jahren um 11 m gesenkt. Umfassender Bericht der taz über das von der globalen Erhitzung besonders betroffene Land.

Der Panama-Kanal ist durch eine anhaltende Dürre so schlecht mit Wasser versorgt, dass die internationale Handelsschifffahrt deutlich eingeschränkt ist. Aufgrund des wahrscheinlich durch die globale Erhitzung verstärkten El Niño liegen die Niederschläge 30% unter den Durchschnitt. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/01/business/economy/panama-canal-drought-shipping.html

Hochwasser und Dürren werden in Deutschland durch die globale Erhitzung weiter zunehmen. Wichtige Faktoren sind der höhere Feuchtigkeitsgehalt der Luft und länger gleichbleibende Wetterlagen durch Veränderungen des Jetstreams.

Die regionalregierung von Katalonien hat wegen der seit drei Jahren anhaltenden Dürre den Wassernotstand ausgerufen. 6 Millionen Einwohnern dürfen unter anderem ihre Autos nicht mehr waschen und Swimmingpools nicht mehr füllen. In den vergangenen zehn Jahren hat sich die Zahl der Hitzewellen in Spanien verdreifacht. https://www.liberation.fr/international/europe/la-catalogne-declare-letat-durgence-secheresse-a-barcelone-20240201_2FHJ34XH2FH5JNJWKGBW57X6M4/

Der Amazonas-Regenwald kommt dem Kipppunkt, an dem er mehr CO2 abgibt als aufnimmt, immer näher. Eine neue Studie sagt vorraus, dass bis 2050 47% des Gebietes geschädigt sein könnten. Von Juni bis Dezember 2023 herrschte dort eine externe Dürre, die einer Attributionsstudie zufolge durch die globale Erhitzung 30mal wahrscheinlicher wurde. https://taz.de/Klimawandel/!5990314/

In Frankreich hat es seit 26 Tagen nicht geregnet. Die Trockenheit - möglicherweise wird Frankreich den trockensten September seit den 1950er-Jahren verzeichnen, verschärft die Folgen der 9-monatigen Rekord-Trockenheit im vergangenen Jahr.

In Norditalien setzt sich die Dürre-Situation des vergangenen Jahres fort, weil - wie in Frankreich - im Winter lange kein Regen gefallen ist. Der Wasserstand des Po ist extrem niedrig. Maßnahmen zur Kontrolle des Wasserverbrauchs sind unter der Rechtsregierung noch schwieriger durchzusetzen als in der Regierungszeit Draghis.

Die Biden-Administration will zum ersten Mal in der Geschichte der USA die Anrainer-Staaten eines Flusses zwingen ihren Wasserverbrauch zu gleichen Teilen zu reduzieren. Damit soll gesichert werden, dass der Colorado River, der wegen einer langen Trockenheit und zu großen Entnahmen nur noch wenig Wasser führt, weiter fließt. https://www.nytimes.com/2023/04/11/climate/colorado-river-water-cuts-drought.html

Zusammenfassender Bericht der EU über die Folgen der globalen Erhitzung in Europa im vergangenen Jahr. Europa erwärmt sich von allen Kontinenten am schnellsten. Die Menschen in Südeuropa waren über 100 Tage extender gute ausgesetzt. 2022 war das trockenste Jahr der ausgezeichneten Wettergeschichte, und es hatte den mit Abstand heißesten Sommer. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/apr/20/frightening-record-busting-heat-and-drought-hit-europe-in-2022

Im Libanon gefährdet der zunehmende Wassermangel die Ernte traditionell angebauter Produkte, etwa die von Salat. Viele Bahn stellen sich um, andere wandern in die Städte ab und suchen sich Beschäftigungen in der Industrie.

Wassermangel gefährdet inzwischen den Schiffsverkehr durch den Panamakanal und damit die internationale Versorgung mit Agrarprodukten, aber auch mit Flüssiggas. Die Trockenheit ist ein Ergebnis veränderter Niederschlagsmuster, die in diesem Jahr durch das El Niño-Phänomen verstärkt werden.

In Spanien hat auch der normalerweise Gerichte April die seit Januar 2022 herrschende Trockenheit nicht unterbrochen. Die Ernten werden voraussichtlich um 60% schlechter als üblich ausfallen und in manchen Zonen komplett ausbleiben .

Die beiden künstlichen Seen, aus denen der Panama-Kanal sein Wasser bezieht, sind durch eine Dürre so weit ausgetrocknet, dass der Schiffsverkehr schon reduziert werden musste.

Der Standard hat Roman Neunteufel von der BOKU Wien zur Zunahme von Dürren einerseits und Starkregen andererseits durch die Klimakrise in Österreich interviewt. https://www.derstandard.at/story/2000146098540/wie-die-klimakrise-die-trockenheit-in-oesterreich-verschaerft

In Europa haben die Böden deutlich mehr Wasser durch Niederschläge erhalten als im vergangenen Sommer. Die aktuellen Copernicus-Daten zeigen, dass trotzdem 25 Prozent des Gebiets, vor allem Spanien, weiterhin unter einer dramatischen Trockenheit leidet. Die Grundwasse-Reservoire haben sich aber noch nicht erholen können. https://www.liberation.fr/environnement/climat/secheresse-des-sols-un-quart-de-leurope-manque-deau-en-avril-contre-la-moitie-lan-dernier-20230513_UA5UPPE26BD47M67YLRSUAD634/

2022 war in Österreich das zweitwärmste Jahr seit Messbeginn. Die Gletscher verloren doppelt so viel Masse wie im Schnitt der letzten 30 Jahre.
