/399/ From ADHD to Let Me Be (Emotion Sickness, pt III)
🕑 Added 2024-03-22 15:48:38 +0000 UTCOn the withdrawal from hyperpolitics and hypermodernity.
What comes after a decade of populism? Alex Hochuli talks through his essay in the forthcoming second issue of Damage magazine. This is episode is the third part of our Emotion Sickness series on the politics of feelings. Click here for part 1 and part 2.
If we are disengaging from politics, what is the associated feeling - resentment or resignation?
Why are our times "hypermodern" – and why is this exhausting?
What can the examples of the 'great resignation', 15-minute cities, and postliberalism all tell us about the ways people are withdrawing from modernity?
Why do we need to decelerate to save modernity?
How might we gain control of time?

Honestly, the hope in Alex near the end is what drove me to re-subscribe. Do we need to reclaim the digital to achieve this taking over of time? It cannot become stigmatized as it currently and increasingly entangled with leisure and/or labour.

I was wondering why I don't really remember /365/ so clearly so I clicked through to it, and all I could notice now was the date: Oct 03, 2023. Four days after announcing the end of hyperpolitics, a war broke out and plunged the world into even deeper hyperpolitics. Going to go into this episode thinking about that.
