"This virus shows up as an opening of excluded middles, opening questions that we couldn't articulate before, igniting dissatisfaction with the normal. It's an opportunity for us to shape-shift into something different." @BayoAkomolafe in tonight's #EarthTalk with @AndyLetcher

Is that God on a quad?
The @ogmiosmusic School of Zen Motoring: these two dash-cam vids of cruising through East London are narrated by a practitioner of Chill Skillz and patience through humor. Not just entertaining, but inspiring and sweet. https://t.co/frOFmhV3n3 &

"Divination systems are sensemaking tools". This is from @ferdinando_MED 's fine @BoingBoing review of a new book from a data scientist and classicist that compares astrology to our reliance on unreliable statistical forecasts in economics, medicine, etc.
