What is The Blind Spot? A bit more explanation about the constellation of ideas which keep us in the dark about Nature and our place in it.
The meat industry's war on wildlife: Each year, a federal program kills 1.5 to 5 million wild animals, most of them in an effort to protect the livestock industry. Ex-employees and conservationists say it's ineffective and inhumane. vox.com/future-perfect…
"Hatred is never appeased by hatred." Dhammapada, 5: We must not turn away from the brutal suffering in Gaza. I stand with all those around the world calling for peace and accountability.
A short discussion related to Brains-In-Vats, the most Blind Spotty of all Blind Spot ideas 😀. Goes along with my @bigthink piece on the topic, inspired by a lovely @evantthompson paper. Meat computers, meat computers, meat computers! You are not a dang meat computer.

I'm pleased to sign the New York Declaration on Animal Consciousness: 1) Our best science suggests some animals are conscious. 2) Many other animals realistically might be conscious. 3) It's irresponsible to ignore (the chance of) consciousness in decisions impacting animals.

Because you were so kind as to read an early version of The Blind Spot (and thank you for that insightful critical reading) you know I will say direct experience is what’s real and where we always begin and too which we must always return. @evantthompson @MGleiser

Many Worlds is a prime example of The Blind Spot (I.e. our new book). Quantum mechanics clearly says measurement/measurers central to the theory. Inventing infinite parallel universes to avoid that makes no sense to us. @MGleiser @evantthompson

It’s so perverse it takes your breath away.
Over 500 people at the Emory quad right now. "From Palestine to Mexico, border walls have got to go!"
“I literally felt that I was in a war zone.” Emory University professor Emil' Keme describes being arrested while defending student antiwar protesters in what is an unprecedented expansion of campus suppression to include faculty arrests.
Thinking about my #Emory Class of 2014 Commencement keynote from the late Hon. Congressman John Lewis, in which he told our melting crowd in that Georgia sun to go out and be bold, find beloved community, get in the damn way and most of all: get in real good trouble.
Dogs are sweet, faithful, and loving. Why anyone would wilfully kill their own dog for being "untrainable" is beyond me. Kristi Noem is despicable.
🚨🇿🇦🇵🇸 Nelson Mandela's grandson joins the Freedom Flotilla set to sail to BREAK THE ISRAELI BLOCKADE on GAZA.
Sen. Mitt Romney: “70% of Republicans still say that Donald Trump won...Are we going to abandon truth to that degree? It’s absolutely absurd...Most of the evidence I’ve seen so far has been Republicans trying to corrupt the election.” (Oct. 2023)
“There are no universities left in Gaza. At Howard, we have $90M contract w/Dept. of Defense. As students across the DMV, we do not support campuses, which are supposed to be spaces of learning, to have relationships w/these genocidal entities” Howard U. students at GWU Protest
The United Nations has called for “a clear, transparent and credible investigation” into the mass graves uncovered at two of Gaza’s major hospitals that had been raided by Israeli troops.
#Emory students have taken over Cox Hall food court as an escalated protest for Gaza
Happy Birthday Ludwig Wittgenstein! (26 April 1889). Often considered one of the greatest philosophers of the 20th century. In his lifetime, he published just one slim, highly influential and dense book, the 75-page Tractatus Logicus Philosophicus (1921), one article, one book…
21-year-old activist Mario Savio gives a passionate speech at the University of California, Berkeley on December 2, 1964. He was arrested, along with 800 others. Hoover's FBI was terrified of this speech.
Listen in. I broke when Ivan Land, 61, who had come to the Mercury clinic this morning at Grassy Narrows to get assessed for mercury poisoning (every single community member here is effected by it), asked me if he would die. This is the hardcore reality- of men, women and…
Hundreds of faculty protesting outside the admin building. Snipers and police assaults will not be tolerated. Whitten will fall.
WATCH: Noelle McAfee, Chair of Emory's Philosophy Department, sat down w/ me 24 hours after she was arrested, charged w/ disorderly conduct. "I think that charge is totally bogus. Who is being disorderly here? The cops wrestling & pummeling somebody, or somebody standing there?"
The student uprisings for Palestine have gone global. Students in Paris occupied the campus building at Elite Paris University, launching a major Palestine solidarity protest after a wave of antiwar protests have swept college campuses across the U.S.
Incredibly brave testimony from IU Associate Dean for Graduate Education Elizabeth Dunn: Whitten's repression has broken "the fundamental link between us and our students." "There's a high likelihood I'll be fired today."
