I feel like I’ve systematically given Timothy Morton short shrift over too long a period of time, and I wish to make public repentance thereof.

You’ve got to stick with his language, to be sure, and it’s occasionally twee, but there’s a warmth there which you don’t often find coupled to this exceptional clarity of insight. The further into life I get, the more I value that warmth.

@adamgreenfield You mean hyperobjects one?

Yeah I love his work. It’s about abstractions of abstractions, so somewhat heady, but I went thru deleuze and guardar I so im prepared.

Havd you heard of The Macroscope, by Jöel de Rosnay? They match.
