in simplicity:

im not saying a central planning communist thing

im not saying a libertarian thing

i am saying: we are human beings with a capacity to understand and remember thru time. yesterday. today. tomorrow. i am saying history. i am saying Not Soundbites i am saying Not Collapsed Context. i am saying it takes the time to say, to explain, and efficiency is off the rails and needs to be decentered as such a major value.

Efficiency is not a good value. it is value neutral. and it is wielded abusively often.

"I dont have time for this" well make the time

lord of the rings is this run time

you can't watch it in the length of an ig reel

If we dont let the context, the mitigating factors, situated in place, in space, to inform us, we are robbing ourselves of all the insight, the wisdom, the knowledge gained thru experience and utterly decimating our decision making capacity.

you need a decision on this?

i will read up on this and get back to you

this is time sensitive? what is someone on the table and this is about removing their leg? no?

then i will get back to you when i have an answer

you need a fast answer?

flip a quarter

cos that is what you are sourcing from a human being when you ask for a fast answer

might as well be more efficient, spare them, and flip coin

it is just about outsourcing responsibility

have decision fatigue? then down for the count. rest.

my dad has been in so much pain and so tired about trying different combinations of ice therapy and foot soaks he ~has~ reached decision fatigue this holiday and has needed me to executive decision decide and i have cos that's fine, im not weary with pain

but if it isnt like that, if this isnt post surgery recovery what does it mean? decision fatigue

a life unsustainable and constellated poorly at this time. rest and re-evaluate.

we have to start valuing wisdom

the kind that takes time

the time that is sacrificed for

the lived experience of time

if i want to learn about puzzles

i want to talk to the guy who has been making puzzles for 47 years

could of done a lot of other stuff, didnt. did puzzles. cost. sacrifice.

takes all kinds

like with the power of many subject matter experts, generalists, and peeps who vibe on the money like just wisdom from the mouth of babes, like a captain planet thing

with forces combined

could get to a cool place on stuff

like cool i need someone 87 years old, someone who is 12, a toddler, a 27 year old, a 23 year old single mom specifically, the neighbor, a rando, and a 63 year old grandma and a campfire

basically: i need a family + a couple extra peeps

and what we can get to consensus on, generally speaking, is probably pretty alright
