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."

Bora Bora has a 20 mile (31 km) long road that circles this beautiful #island . A drive around #BoraBora provides fantastic #views and a good #experience . https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Bora-Bora/#drive

The #USA appears to be beyond #meltdown.
It is the #dystopia none but the #insane wants to #experience.
The #bravest #quote from a #blog I read this morning:
"How much do the #taxpayers have to pay for a #fascist #country?"

I am thinking of getting a bat house for the end of the yard!
Love night pollinators, etc
Any advice?
This is for urban Denver
Note that we DO see bats already in the yard around dusk naturally, hunting insects...
Thanks in advance!

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...

""keep your gross #ships to yourself!!" is basically just "i do not feel obligated to #curate my #online #experience and go into spaces that i do not like and then #complain about it because i believe the entire #internet should #conform to my #morals and my #values. i also cannot use the #block button.""

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.

hi,
for me, it really #hurts when I see another #Linux user but is #recommending/#using manjaro, coming from a 2-year #black #experience using that #trash in the #ArchLinux #ecosystem
#sad, really sad
if you need details, I will happily provide them #publicly (no #private #posts or #messages #please )
#PS: I tried manjaro between 2021 and 2023

Research shows being #Naked — especially in #Nature — boosts #MentalHealth. People feel freer, more confident, more alive. Just one #Experience of #SocialNudity or outdoor #Nudity can lift #BodyImage, reduce anxiety, & reconnect us with #Nature. #Nudity doesn’t harm. It heals. Your #body is not a problem.
