The extinction of experience
The Human-Nature Relationships from 1800 to 2020

There is a "disappearance of natural words from books between 1800 and 2020, which peaked at a 60.6% decline in 1990...The modelling predicts an ongoing “extinction of experience” with future generations continuing to lose an awareness of nature because it is not present in increasingly built-up neighbourhoods, while parents no longer pass on an “orientation” towards the natural world."

I've been using #Linux on and off for the last 10 years. Had times when I was on Linux for years at the time, and times when I used Windows.

It's astonishing for me how in a span of just a couple of years I went from being excited about my laptop getting the #Windows 11 upgrade to absolutely despising every second I have to use it for.

Back then every Windows news was a blessing. Now they're just new annoyed grunts...

Duality is a trick of language: subject & object, “self” & other, here & there. But #reality is undivided. You don’t end at your skin. There’s no solid wall between “me” & “you,” between breath & air. Even thought is part of the stream. Let the illusion dissolve. Look without naming. Feel without dividing. #Experience without the filter of identity.
