What I am reading about lately, from Naomi Klein to Jenny Odell

Here’s a dozen good pieces I’ve read lately that I would recommend for your Sunday — or any day — reading:

  1. Naomi Klein has some new world problems: Naomi Klein deals with her doppelganger.
  2. Meanwhile, the UK is dealing with some old world problems: on the Finucane assassination in Northern Ireland.
  3. How we think about the serial killer Lucy Letby shows how she could get away with it. Hard but insightful.
  4. On a lighter note, I liked this piece on how 90s tech culture was a jumbled mess.
  5. An argument to consider: we should return to the bold egalitarianism of Iris Murdoch.
  6. Some meaty food for thought: what can we learn from John Rawls’s critique of capitalism.
  7. A good piece by Kevin Kruse on Carter and Reagan: confidence men.
  8. For fans of stoicism:  the glass is already broken.
  9. My friend Norbert with another good post on repairability, here.
  10. Science explains how we lose interest in something. Different than we think.
  11. This interview with Jenny Odell talking about time is great.
  12. I am somewhat of a fan of Horseshoe_theory, but not everyone is, I know.
