• [[Listened]] to [[Hotel Bar Sessions: Whose Anthropocene?]]

  • Good discussion - is [[Anthropocene]] a useful term? Maybe [[Capitalocene]] works better? Maybe both have their uses. Good overview of the pros and cons of both.
  • There’s a geological definition of Anthropocene (descriptive), which is interesting and all, but perhaps of more genuine use is it as a definition that motivates us to act to mitigate climate catastrophe (prescriptive).

• Also [[listened]] to [[Envisioning Platform Socialism w/ James Muldoon]]

  • Great discussion. Loads of good stuff in there, listened while doing chores so not much in the way of notes, warrants a relisten.
  • [[Platform Socialism]]. [[Guild socialism]]. [[Subsidiarity]]. Some things best as worker coops, some local municipality, some national. Some global. Global digital services. Take Google into global public ownership?
  • [[DECODE]].
