On the basis of The Banality of Evil from #HannahArendt I suggest that we all try to engage in and therefore develop #publicDiscourse.

My idea: "The five minute table"
How: Get two chairs, a table (to maintain distance) and a ~five minute hourglass.
Build up in public and sit down to wait for somebody deciding to have a seat.
No rules, but
- the time starts when sitting down
- after the hourglass passed the guest can turn it one more time, with the next passing you can turn it, and it continues alternating thereafter
- at anythe time the guest can leave

Goal: Pluralism, public discourse, getting to know your neighbourhood...

"Do not fuck with my brain!"

Being permanently interrupted with evolutionary unprecedented media which are psychologically designed to steer our attention to a goal which brings nothing to a human being but profit for a few people of our capitalist world, is a desertification of the human potential for self-development and the ability to engage in the communal sphere, which is the living basis of everyday life.

Started to use glasses before a while and soon thereafter I got ads for glasses, while I rarely talked about the shift, let alone don't have mobile internet.

My front camera is now covered with a hello kitty sticker!

German minister from the free liberals party (FDP) says that Germany needs weponized drones "for, in the best case scenario, not to use them"!

You have to love them for their superb hypernormal propaganda.
