Clarity: When I say Earth First Always, it is for many reasons, such as "Nature is ancient and deserves respect." I have plenty of room for not only promoting environmentalism, but understanding that Homo Sapiens are animals from the Earth and therefore limited in how individuals and entire civilizations (unnatural for our species) can function.
Co-ed will always be a fringe thing or cease to exist. Can't push too hard or else There Will Be Backlash.

Nobody is pragmatic anymore.
Literal adult children.

Civilization is a permanent plutocracy. We can only choose how much plutocracy we will tolerate, and how much merit is required.

Everyone who votes and participates in politics as a liberal or conservative is an idealist.
But I am consistently shocked by how much conservative politics Don't Work. They are not even pragmatic.

Harvard History of Philosophy Workshop The Geodetic Roots of C. S. Peirce's Pragmatism Alisa Bokulich BOSTON UNIVERSITY ROBBINS LIBRARY EMERSON 211 OCTOBER 24 3PM - 5PM Free & Open to the Public
Looking forward to giving a talk at Harvard tomorrow (drawing on a chapter from my in-progress book "Measuring the Earth & Reconstructing Deep Time") on how C.S. Peirce's scientific work as a geodesist shaped the development of his pragmatic philosophy #pragmatism #pragmaticism #philsci #philsky โ๏ธ
1) Look hard enough & you can see how everything might have relevance
2) There is a human limit of what we can remember
3) We all have jobs to do
How do we place a limit on what we need to know?
