Falsches wird zum Normalfall – nicht, weil wir dümmer, sondern weil wir überfordert sind. Matthias C. Kettemann beobachtet eine kommunikative Überlastung, die unser „kognitives Immunsystem“ schwächt. Inmitten digitaler Dauerreizung reagieren Menschen wie Allergiker auf zu viele Pollen: verunsichert, panisch oder gar wütend. Doch Matthias bleibt Optimist. Für ihn ist Bildung das stärkste Gegenmittel – nicht allein in Schulen, sondern als gesamtgesellschaftlicher Prozess, der selbst Großeltern erreicht.Auffällig ist seine Warnung vor einer sich selbst erfüllenden Prophezeiung: Wer zu viel über Desinformation redet, sieht bald nichts anderes mehr. Die permanente Beschwörung von Manipulation erschafft ein Klima der Ohnmacht – ein Zustand, in dem Zornunternehmer einfache Erklärungen bieten: Schuld sind „die Ausländer“, „die Öffentlich-Rechtlichen“, „die da oben“. Das Problem ist weniger der Fake als die verlorene Fähigkeit, mit Ambiguität umzugehen.Matthias plädiert für eine neue Diskursökologie: Plattformen müssen transparent machen, was sie verstärken. Algorithmen sollen nicht nur Klicks fördern, sondern Debatten ermöglichen. Und Nutzerinnen und Nutzer – wir alle – müssen unsere Aufmerksamkeit wieder als politisches Gut begreifen. Der Ausweg aus der digitalen Betäubung beginnt nicht mit Technikregulierung, sondern mit einem selbstkritischen Blick auf das eigene Scrollverhalten. Der Off-Button ist da. Wir müssen ihn nur drücken.Zu Gast:Matthias C. Kettemann, Internetforscher am Leibniz-Institut für Medienforschung (Hans-Bredow-Institut), HamburgCreate your podcast today! #madeonzencastr

More To The Story: Bill McKibben isn't known for his rosy outlook on climate change. Back in 1989, the environmentalist wrote The End of Nature, which is considered the first mainstream book warning of global warming's potential effects on the planet. His writing on climate change has been described as “dark realism.” But McKibben has recently let a little light shine through thanks to the dramatic growth of renewable energy, particularly solar power. In his new book, Here Comes the Sun: A Last Chance for the Climate and a Fresh Chance for Civilization, McKibben argues that the planet is experiencing the fastest energy transition in history from fossil fuels to solar and wind—and that transition could be the start of something big. On this week's More To The Story, McKibben sits down with host Al Letson to examine the rise of solar power, how China is leapfrogging the United States in renewable energy use, and the real reason the Trump administration is trying to kill solar and wind projects around the country.Producer: Josh Sanburn | Editor: Kara McGuirk-Allison | Theme music: Fernando Arruda and Jim Briggs | Copy editor: Nikki Frick with help from Artis Curiskis | Deputy executive producer: Taki Telonidis | Executive producer: Brett Myers | Executive editor: James West | Host: Al Letson Donate today at Revealnews.org/more Subscribe to our weekly newsletter at Revealnews.org/weekly Follow us on Instagram and Bluesky Listen: Will the National Parks Survive Trump?

This week the American figurative abstract painter and writer Sophie Kipner who primarily uses the blind contouring technique. Sophie was born in Santa Monica in 1982 into an artistically musical family; her English mother Lizzie was a singer and dancer, her Australian father Steve, a songwriter, musician and producer, her grandfather, a songwriter and producer, and her brother Harrison, also a songwriter, musician and producer. Sophie however was to take a different route with an early interest in art, particularly sketching and learning portraiture, which would carry her through to her professional career.  Her parents emphasized self expression as a learning tool, encouraging her creativity. While attending Viewpoint High School in Calabasas she developed an interest in photography. Sophie was the first member of her family to attend college and she chose The Annenberg School at the University of Southern California to study journalism and public relations, graduating magna cum laude with a BA in 2005. Her earliest exposure to art and artists included visits to galleries in Europe with her mother, which is where the abstract work of Picasso caught her eye and subconsciously imprinted an influence that would later become apparent in her own work. After graduating Sophie spent time working for her aunt at Apogee Electronics where she learned a number of skills that would help her later in her own business. Her love of writing, especially short stories, became an important and relevant aspect of her career. From 2013-15 she worked at The Society Club in London. It was during this time that she introduced sketching games to her dinner parties, which unlocked her love of art again after many years focusing on her writing. After moving back to LA Sophie began showing her work on social media and taking commissions. This eventually led to her decision to become a full time artist and since 2015 she has had her works shown in multiple solo and group gallery exhibitions and sold into commercial and private collections globally, including the Salam Art Collection in Iraq. Her writing was also gaining momentum and in 2017, her first book, The Optimist, a satirical look at the extremity of romantic desperation, was published by Unbound in the UK and later in the US and Canada in 2021. The novel was named a “Best Summer Read” by The Daily Mail and optioned for film and television adaptation. Sophie was also the subject of the Oscar-shortlisted short documentary, “Sophie and The Baron”, which chronicles Sophie's friendship and artistic collaboration with legendary Rolling Stone Magazine photographer Baron Wolman. The award-winning film, directed by Alexandria Jackson, premiered at SXSW Film Festival and was acquired by Disney as their first original documentary, and is now streaming worldwide on Disney Plus.

Hey Jason,First, thank you. Your reply to America = Afghanistan was what debate used to be — informed, generous, and disarmingly human. You didn't just argue; you elevated. You said America isn't a graveyard of movements but a battleground that keeps evolving. That progress doesn't die, it sediments — layering itself into law, language, and culture. And you're right, at least partly.My essay argued that Afghanistan defeats empires not through power, but patience. It takes their money, their systems, their slogans — and outlasts them. I claimed that America does something similar with its own movements. Civil Rights, Feminism, Occupy, BLM, DEI, Climate — each storms the gates, shakes the country, gets absorbed, and eventually fades. Not through defeat, but through digestion. The system applauds, funds, and merchandises reform until it becomes part of the furniture.You called that cynicism; I call it pattern recognition.Still, I love your counterpoint — that movements compost rather than die. They decay into the civic soil and nourish what comes next. Civil rights fed feminism; feminism fed queer rights; queer rights now feed trans visibility. Progress is recursive, not reversible. It doesn't stay won, but it doesn't vanish either.Here's where I worry: compost requires gardeners. America builds landfills. Instead of letting old ideas nourish the next generation, we entomb them in marketing and bureaucracy. Feminism becomes “empowerment branding.” BLM becomes a slogan on corporate banners. Pride becomes a sponsored hashtag. We embalm activism in self-congratulation.You argue that inertia — democracy's slowness — is what saves us from tyranny. True. But inertia also preserves inequality. It cushions privilege and slows redistribution. Our institutions were designed for equilibrium, not revolution. They absorb idealism by offering symbolic wins in place of structural change.Your best line was that “we are the system.” That's the painful truth. Afghanistan's invaders leave; ours get elected. Every reformer lives inside the structure they're trying to change. We can't overthrow what we are. We fight inequality on devices made by exploited labor, on platforms profiting from outrage. Our dissent gets monetized before it matures.So maybe America isn't a graveyard or a garden — maybe it's a mausoleum with Wi-Fi. Everything that ever lived here is still visible: Civil Rights, Pride, Occupy, #MeToo — preserved, tagged, and softly lit. Nothing truly dies, but nothing truly breathes either.And yet — your optimism matters. You remind me that cynicism without hope is just moral laziness. You still believe in the slow miracle of reform, the patience of democracy, the compost of culture. Without people like you, the rest of us would drown in irony.Maybe the truth is somewhere between your garden and my graveyard — in the dirt itself, where old ideals decompose just enough to feed new ones.If Afghanistan survives by outlasting empires, America survives by arguing itself into coherence.And that argument — between faith and fatigue — might be the only proof that we're still alive.With respect and affection,Chris

The municipal animal shelter in Huntington, West Virginia, was euthanizing 50 to 75 percent of the animals that came in because they didn't have the funding or space to care for them. Enter Courtney Proctor Cross. She was named director of the shelter in August 2018, and through hard work and fundraising she transformed the shelter into a place of hope.

In this 200th-episode special of Retire in Texas, Darryl Lyons, CEO & Co-Founder of PAX Financial Group, begins a three-part series exploring why some economists are discussing the potential for a future downturn, and what history can teach us about investor behavior during times of uncertainty. From the fall of Rome to the Great Depression to today's evolving economy, Darryl connects four powerful influences - government spending, inflation, demographics, and technology - and discusses how these forces interact to shape long-term economic outcomes. He also examines how optimism and pessimism affect investor psychology and what it means to stay steady when headlines predict doom. If you've ever wondered whether history is repeating itself - or how to stay grounded when headlines predict doom - this episode offers clarity, perspective, and practical insights to help you think long-term. Key Highlights from the Episode -Why predictions of a “2030 Depression” are gaining attention. -Optimists vs. pessimists: how each influences investor behavior. -Lessons from history: Rome's collapse and the Great Depression. -Why history doesn't repeat itself - but it often rhymes. -What gives U.S. currency its resilience, and how trust plays a role in economic stability.

Das Neue Kunstmuseum Tübingen NKT zeigt nicht einfach nur eine James-Rizzi-Ausstellung – NKT-Direktor Bernhard Feil und der Künstler hatten auch eine persönliche Verbindung. „Die Freundschaft entstand im Jahr 2003 bei einer Charity-Aktion des SWR. Da habe ich Rizzi in Stuttgart kennengelernt,“ erzählt Feil im SWR Kultur-Interview. Rizzi sei ein absoluter Optimist gewesen, der immer nur das Gute im Menschen gesehen hat, so Feil weiter. „Er war ein Weltverbesserer mit seiner Kunst.“

Summary: Consumers rejected genetically modified crops, and I expect they will do the same for cultivated meat. The meat lobby will fight to discredit the new technology, and as consumers are already primed to believe it's unnatural, it won't be difficult to persuade them. When I hear people talk about cultivated meat (i.e. lab-grown meat) and how it will replace traditional animal agriculture, I find it depressingly reminiscent of the techno-optimists of the 1980s and ‘90s speculating about how genetic modification will solve all our food problems. The optimism of the time was understandable: in 1994 the first GMO product was introduced to supermarkets, and the benefits of the technology promised incredible rewards. GMOs were predicted to bring about the end of world hunger, all while requiring less water, pesticides, and land.Today, thirty years later, in the EU GM foods are so regulated that they are [...] ---Outline:(01:56) Why did GMOs fail to be widely adopted?(02:44) A Bad First Impression(05:54) Unpopular Corporate Concentration(07:22) Cultivated Meat IS GMO(08:45) What timeline are we in?(10:24) What can be done to prevent cultivated meat from becoming irrelevant?(10:30) Expect incredible opposition(11:46) Be ready to tell a clear story about the benefits.(13:17) A proactive PR Effort(15:01) First impressions matter(17:16) Labeling(19:35) Be ready to discuss concerns about unnaturalness(21:56) Limitations of the comparison(23:07) Conclusion--- First published: September 22nd, 2025 Source: https://forum.effectivealtruism.org/posts/rMQA9w7ZM7ioZpaN6/cultivated-meat-a-wakeup-call-for-optimists --- Narrated by TYPE III AUDIO. ---Images from the article:Apple Podcasts and Spotify do not show images in the episode description.

In this episode of the AIGA Design Podcast, Lee-Sean Huang and Giulia Donatello engage with George Aye, co-founder of Greater Good Studio, to explore the concept of 'pissed off optimism' in design. They discuss the balance between recognizing societal issues and maintaining hope for change, the importance of community among like-minded individuals, and the challenges of transitioning from designer to business owner. Aye reflects on his experiences with race in design, the principles guiding his studio, and the need for ethical considerations in design education. The conversation culminates in recommendations for media that inspire social change and a call to action for designers to engage with local nonprofits.Takeaways- Being a 'pissed off optimist' means balancing anger and hope.- Designers can create new worlds and challenge the status quo.- Community events can foster connections among like-minded individuals.- Race and identity play significant roles in the design profession.- Transitioning from designer to business owner presents unique challenges.- Saying no to certain projects is crucial for maintaining integrity.- Design should prioritize social change and community impact.- Teaching ethics in design is essential for future generations.- Breaking traditional design rules can lead to authenticity.- Engaging with local nonprofits can amplify design's social impact.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Pissed Off Optimism02:42 The Angry Hour for Pissed Off Optimists05:53 Reflections on Race and Design11:36 Navigating Leadership and Management Challenges17:08 The Importance of Saying No23:04 Designing Collaborative Cultures29:08 Redefining Performance in Design33:30 Aligning Business Goals with Social Impact37:44 Breaking Design Rules and Embracing Authenticity41:10 Transforming Design Education for Social Good46:53 Inspiration and Recommendations for Designers

David Weiner is washing dishes. It's the 21st of the month, which means his D.C. rowhouse is full of people. Some are friends he's known for decades, others are people he's never met. There's a jazz band playing standards downstairs, and the music is floating up through the house. Some of the musicians are professionals, others are amateurs who showed up with an instrument and enough courage — liquid or otherwise — to join in.The price of admission is a $21 suggested donation to cover costs and pay the house band.

In honor of Back-to-School season, throughout September, Everyday Better is sharing conversations inspired by the essential life skills we didn't learn in school… but should have. This week on the show, Gretchen Rubin—best-selling author of The Happiness Project—lets us into one of her secrets of adulthood: how to make decisions.  We're all constantly making decisions, big and small. As we get older and become the “adults” in the room, we're more often the ones who have to choose one way or another on some big life decisions. So when the stakes feel high, how are we supposed to pick the right thing? Is there even a “right” and a “wrong?” And how do we make sure we have no regrets and make a decision that will make us happy?  Spoiler alert: we can't.  But! There are things we can do to make better decisions. In this episode, Gretchen shares some of her hard-won wisdom and helpful tips on how to make decisions that are right for us. If you've ever wondered how all the other adults are choosing their paths, and whether or not you're on track, this conversation is for you.  If you liked this episode, you'll also love this one: Case Kenny: How to Become an Optimist.

It's hard to age gracefully. Social isolation, physical immobility, mental decline — these are all problems that most people struggle with as they get older. But one group of people prove that it's possible to thrive into your 80s and 90s. Researchers call them “super agers.” And one of them lives just down my block.Ednajane Truax, who is known to friends and neighbors as “E.J.,” can often be found on her hands and knees in the dirt, working in the garden at the Sherwood Recreation Center in Northeast Washington. She also has an impressive garden of her own and helps out with other neighbors' gardens. She works out several times a week, sometimes while wearing a shirt that says, “You don't stop lifting when you get old — you get old when you stop lifting.” She can bench press 55 pounds and leg press 250.Truax has never married — “just lucky, I guess,” she jokes when I ask her about that — but she has remained social her entire life. She volunteers, goes to the gym, throws parties, knows her neighbors and their children by name. Truax says her secret to thriving as she ages is simple: Be active.It turns out that research backs her up.If you're looking for more surprising, delightful stories about the best of humanity, check out The Optimist from The Washington Post.

In honor of Back-to-School season, throughout September, Everyday Better is sharing conversations inspired by the essential life skills we didn't learn in school, but should have. This week on the show, mindfulness educator Case Kenny explains how we can change our mindsets and find a more optimistic outlook. If you watch the news, you won't find much to be optimistic about. To realists, optimism might seem like denying reality. But in this conversation, you'll hear why optimism isn't about burying our heads in the sand; instead, it's a learnable skill you can use to find more agency amidst chaos and build trust in yourself, your community, and the world. In this week's episode of Everyday Better, Case shares what optimism really is and how we can authentically cultivate it in ourselves. He explains why changing our mindsets starts with addressing our self-talk and how we can learn to challenge negative beliefs. You can find Case's new book The Opposite of Settling here.

Marcy Syms has led a remarkable life, full of triumphs and tragedies.  Through a discussion of her new book, Leading with Respect: Adventures of an Off-Price Fashion Pioneer, host Bill Burke and Marcy cover subjects ranging from Marcy's upbringing, to overcoming bigotry and bullying in high school, to running her father's company and keeping it on track through the loss of two of her siblings.      Chapters: 00:00 Introduction & Leading with Respect  Bill Burke introduces Marcy Syms, CEO of The Syms Corporation, and her upcoming book “Leading with Respect.” Marcy discusses her father's motto “Don't let the bad guys win” and how it relates to being prepared and ensuring both sides of an encounter feel respected.  04:18 Customer Respect & Grandmother's Influence  Marcy explains how her father's tagline “an educated consumer is our best customer” was foundational to their company's success and built on respect for the customer.

She also explains her path to joining her father's business after being fired from her broadcasting job, finding excitement and fulfillment in the entrepreneurial world.  19:05 Business Innovation & Personal Resilience  Marcy describes the unique “automatic markdown price tag” marketing strategy that differentiated Syms stores, despite not being a profit center. She then discusses the immense personal resilience required to lead the company as CEO while simultaneously dealing with the tragic loss of her brother and sister within a year.  27:43 Courage, Values, and Philanthropy  Marcy emphasizes the importance of courage, even in small acts, and how it's linked to personal values. She reveals her strong aversion to bullies, a trait honed by her past experiences, and how her father's philanthropic vision led to the establishment of the Sy Syms Foundation.  33:25 Impactful Philanthropic Initiatives  Marcy details the foundation's unique philanthropic approach, supporting organizations like PEN America, the American Heart Association's “Go Red” campaign for women's heart health, and the Tannenbaum Foundation's anti-bullying initiatives. She also highlights their commitment to investigative journalism through NPR and scientific research at institutions like the Weissman Institute.  41:34 Lifelong Learning & Hot Water Strength  Marcy reflects on the Eleanor Roosevelt quote, “A woman is like a tea bag; you don't know her strength until she gets into hot water,” acknowledging her own life's challenges. She passionately advocates for lifelong learning as a key to longevity and a fulfilling life, drawing parallels to Jewish cultural inquisitiveness and the entrepreneurial spirit. 

What inspires a young boy to dream about a career in the US Army and then, after graduating from West Point, manage to prepare for—and survive—combat? In a “solo” installment of GoodFellows, Lt. Gen. H.R. McMaster, Hoover's Fouad and Michelle Ajami Senior Fellow, a former national security advisor to the president, and a highly honored combat veteran, discusses his childhood in Philadelphia, the inspiring figures he encountered during his Army years, his roundabout journey to becoming an armor officer, lessons from tank battles in the Middle East, and the importance of faith. He also describes a post-service life in California, where, ironically, an Army man makes sense of world affairs while chillaxing on a paddleboard. Also joining the show: Katie McMaster, who recounts how she and her husband met (it was love at first sight), the challenges of being a military spouse, the day H.R. said goodbye to his head of hair (he shaved his head at her insistence), plus her ongoing campaign to spare her Orange County neighbors from the blare of H.R.'s favorite tunes.  Subscribe to GoodFellows for clarity on today's biggest social, economic, and geostrategic shifts — only on GoodFellows.
