from a flows/forces/relational perspective, who among us can be said to be "intelligent" or "agentic" as essence.
we live in a system of relationships. agency is an emergent property of the affordances and environment.
It's a dynamic state (or potentiality) not an essence

life and not-life, conscious and not-conscious, sacred and not sacred.
These are interesting phliosophical discussions but problematic in the conditions we find ourselves in where the rhetoric is weaponized for relationships of master-slave, real not-real, better or worse.

Had a wonderful Sunday at the Berlin Global exhibit followed by international karaoke in Mauser Park

Vance and Walz shake hands at the vice presidential debate. Walz keeps holding onto Vance’s hand. He lifts it up for the audience to see and says “soft.” He shakes his head. “You got city boy hands, JD.” The crowd goes wild. Donald Trump fires Vance via Truth Social mid debate.

Those insisting that the VP pick doesn’t matter based on precedent don’t seem to get that this isn’t a normal election. There was no primary! Biden dropped out 4 months before election day! Historical precedent is probably not so useful. I’d guess the VP matters more than usual.
Would love to see more player profiles of Chinese athletes in the Olympics.
Maybe it's the US-centric coverage I'm watching but it always feels like China stories revert to nationalism, US = individualism.
is this just a media access problem? what gives?
Alternatively a good faith explanation is the Overton window.
One group called the radicals must be pushing the edges of what might be considered normal discourse

The weakness of the interpretation is that this psychologist imagines that people are either “conformists” or “truthers”
This exp shows that humans are rational, adaptive and humble enough to not stake survival on being right. Complex environments require heuristics.
