@technoshaman @michaelgarfield @neno_is_ooo @technoshaman you have been an inspiration to me for at least 25 years. Honored to be in your company.

@T_C_S_ @michaelgarfield @neno_is_ooo ditto

I've been quieter than usual the last few months. Here's why: The hundreds of conversations on public record at Humans On The Loop were just the tip of an iceberg. Over the two years since leaving Mozilla, I've met more and more amazing people who share a dream of a future I actually want my kids to inherit: a flourishing world where narrative authorship is restored to the people, ecologically-grounded economic systems are built with care, and sovereign sensemaking infrastructure enables us to meet the wicked problems of our century with the creativity and collective intelligence they require. Atlas Research Group, the team I've been working to help launch, is a kind of seed crystal for a federated commons of open source projects in service of this future. My colleagues on the core team — @dylantull, @coreygo, @csageland, @QBFrank, and @HexaField — are some of the most insightful and capable people I've ever had the pleasure to team up with. All of us were working toward this for years without realizing just how many of us there are. And now we're starting to fold in even more incredibly brilliant, caring, and talented people — all of us composting our projects into this bigger thing that finally feels like it's speaking itself into being. I'll have much more to say about this later, but for now I'm just happy to announce our introductory article where we explain what we're about and extend your invitation. You'll find a link to the whole thing and an especially juicy excerpt below:

@HumanityChad Mom is like "damn I wish I had some hands"

Lioness pushes her cub without knowing it is water and then... 🥺

@nickbateman33 is a true Wizards/Bullets fan. Loyal fan and tortured soul. LOL. If you are on TikTok check out his "Bracket of Woe" which is basically one of the funniest/saddest things I have ever seen. Ahhh the joy will be so sweet one day...

@MAGACult2 Please stop sharing these videos. These people are retarded… they can not change. It’s just mean and upsetting to all.

We told you it does not matter what you show them. They will inevitably call the video of him doing inappropriate things with little children AI. Their brains cannot compute.

@RobbSmith God I hope so. It’s going to take so many years to rebuild our social trust.

What’s funny is a blitzkrieg of virtue-restoring values is about to take over America, and it’s going to be so resolutely centered in society-conserving goodness that most of today’s so-called conservatives are going to absolutely hate it.

@MeachamDr Creepy.

Remember when they laughed at us for calling it a cult?

@scottsantens @esjesjesj I agree 100% that he is acting like a huckster. He hasn’t put a serious thought or political support for UBI.

We absolutely need to do universal basic income, regardless of AI, but especially because of AI, however, Elon is using UBI as a marketing gimmick. He's basically saying if everyone buys enough of his shit, we'll all get paid. He's a huckster taking advantage of our need for basic income. scottsantens.com/universal-basi…

“Universal high income” is the dumbest fucking thing I’ve ever heard

@TheMaineWonk “And thank you very much from the USA”. WTF kind of thought is that?

The only leader built for moments like this. Embarrassment.

@Xeer @ThePhunky1 Dude this is awesome. Just sent this to my family.

@ThePhunky1 I’m old person

the older i get the more i realize how simple a good life really is. wake up early. lift 3x a week. walk 30 minutes a day. eat real food. drink water. sleep well. read. obsess over something that matters. spend time with loved ones. avoid drama. be grateful. you’ll already be healthier and happier than 95% of people.

Top-down state capitalism. Who voted for that? Trump economy looking like Saudia Arabia. politico.com/news/magazine/…

@RobbSmith My personal emotional reservoir is bottoming out. lol. I hope there are some new forms of dialogue being forged. Not sure.

Good news. For a decade I've said the great release, populism & epistemic anarchy are a dialectical social learning process. Right now we're inflecting, entering a new regime whereby resilience is rapidly increasing, culture war & propaganda are tiring. A bottom is forming.

@RobbSmith Thanks for giving me some hope Robb. We are gonna have to rebuild our entire infrastructure. And the soul of our country.

As I've said repeatedly, Donald Trump and his followers are unwittingly creating the governing powers & norms necessary for a 21st century FDR makeover of the US exactly one century after the first.

This is the best. "No Healthcare for You! But I get a new ballroom"

@RobbSmith @IAMetatheory I’m already following! I’ve been a decent student of integral SD for 20 years and it’s time to re spark interest from more people.

Exactly. We’re going to get @IAMetatheory thinking about this.

@RobbSmith That’s such a strong point. I feel absolutely any cohesion tonite platform or trust in content that comes to me. The “news” on X is beyond a joke. If we can’t bring cultural capital why stay?

Twitter may be a lost cause at this point. Between what my colleague Bruce Alderman wrote about the “algorithmic undertow” creating demirealities & the selective filtering of posts so no tribe can build real long-term cultural capital means there’s almost all downside and no upside. It may be time to create or host a space for the Integrative Worldview to convene without these radical malformations, and where it can just reflect and reproduce the flourishing that captures how integralists live.

Damn. It’s time!! #gavinnewsome #trumpandsatan

@grahamformaine @TheMaineWonk Graham Platner you are INSTANTLY my favorite President ever. Sending you a check this week. First Maine and then the White House. Fn amazing!!

@TheMaineWonk Hell yeah, brother. Thank you!

Arguably one of the best campaign ads I’ve ever seen from @grahamformaine. This is the New Democratic Party. Going back to its roots. Real, blue collar, working class people, leading the charge to take the party and the country back from oligarchic elites. ✊🏻

@realDonaldTrump This is why you are going to hell. And for grabbing women by the pussy.

@mobbs_mentality Pi

FLOTUS continues to shine a light on this darkness.
