so you can find your own exit.
If this thread made you think — the book will rewire how you see everything.

#JochenAndritzky: #KritischeDiskussion in der öffentliche Debatte wird nicht ohne #MetaÜberlegungen gehen!
“Ich würde anregen, dass wir die Diskussion stärker auf den Metaebenen ablaufen lassen. Das ist vielleicht ein bisschen 'lebensferner', aber das, wo wir mehr gewinnen, als wenn wir dann immer in die Details reingehen.”
my2¢: Nicht solange wir #WeaponsOfMassDestraction (#SocialMedia) haben!

A quotation from Watterson, Bill:
«
CALVIN (as he and Hobbes ride a wagon downhill): I think life should be more like TV.
CALVIN: I think all of life’s problems ought to be solved in thirty minutes with simple homilies, don’t you? I think weight and oral hygiene ought to be our biggest concerns.
CALVIN: I think we…

If we stuck to just wired-computers, and not something we can stick in our pockets, we'd be better off. It's the #InstantGratification that came with the #smartphones (and #WiFi) that I saw things go downhill. If one had to go to a library or use a computer at home at a desk, and they would have to wait and have patience. #Patience doesn't exist anymore...! @bouriquet @Robo
@pratik @humdrum What is this waiting of which you speak? #InstantGratification

On this day in 1948 the first instant Polaroid camera was released. Polaroid thought they had enough stock to last through the holiday season, but all 57 units (and film) sold out on the first day

I've a book on #mimeticdesire ordered I want to read and I'm left wondering whether the above filters what is and is not desired - where #instantgratification is observed it is fertile ground mimetic desire to occur, but where #delayedgratification occurs it is not.
If the resulting asymmetry of behavioural spread rates for delayed benefits and harms lead to asymmetrical outcomes then it may offer an explanation for why developed countries have incredible #inequality and resulting social harms.
It takes effort for people to associate the merit of a thing (eg strength training or benefits of most #newyearsresolution) with its *eventual* results, but **it doesn't take any effort** to associate the merit of a thing with it's immediate results.
This doesn't exist in a vacuum. If your peers reject something with immediate downside (even minor & temporary) but good delayed benefits (even incredible), peer pressure kicks in.
You feel out-of-line, you should stop.
