    1. Jochen Kopp, Jürgen Elsässer und noch ein paar andere verdienen sehr gut daran.

      wenn geld euer einziges "argument" ist dann...<br /> danke, dass ihr "uns" in allen anderen punkten "recht" gebt : )

      dass "big pharma" milliardenfach geld verdient an den chemischen waffen die sie produziert...?<br /> das ist wohl "nur whataboutism" und wer weisse kittel trägt und grinst, der muss gut sein, ne?<br /> wie war das, die grünen wollten cannabis legalisieren? oder hat "big pharma" doch "veto" gesagt?

      aber spoiler: ich bin einzelgänger, autonom, und alle gruppen und promis sind mir grundsätzlich suspekt.<br /> weil "traukeinempromi". weil in der öffentlichkeit gibts nur "controlled opposition".<br /> die wenigen echten radikalos die ich interessant finde, sitzen im knast oder bleiben leise...

      deswegen: ihr kämpft die ganze zeit nur gegen irgendwelche strohmänner (low hanging fruits)<br /> aber "echte gegner" sind schwer zu finden, auch auf den wohlfühl-"demos"...

      dass es hier im forum politische zensur gibt, das stört euch wohl auch nicht?<br /> ist ja nicht euere meinung die zensiert wird...<br /> mir egal, es gibt ja genug andere seiten wie annas-archive.org

      "was ist mit der realness? alle nur noch wellness..."

    1. the underlying tenets of wellness culture also set the stage for a paranoid individualism: Neoliberal wellness culture’s message “that individuals must take charge over their own bodies as their primary sites of influence, control, and competitive edge” and “that those who don’t exercise that control deserve what they get” has turned out to be “all too compatible with far-right notions of natural hierarchies, genetic superiority, and disposable people.”A collection of resentments

    1. My (Entirely-Unsolicited) Thoughts on the most Casual Crue™'s 10th:

      Ya know, my memory isn't so great anymore, but I remember my then best friend and most respected music authority resting pretty confidently in an argument about this sound, and those who peretuated it: that it was by nature/declaration substanceless, and therefore, those invested in it were either just superficial or.. idek anymore. Ingenuine, maybe?

      I don't think I was even placating with him when I mostly went along with it - it did seem important to invest in more abrasive (read: edgy bs) pursuits. I thought I was resisting "nostalgia" and even invested most of my twenties trying to start an online culture/electronic music magazine in direct editorial opposition to regurgitation. Imo, though, any actual exposure to self-described "vaporwave" makes it very plain how utterly useless it is to cry nostalgia because - crucially - whatever form of it that may or may not be an established marker of this voice is completely devoid of the illness that has absolutely pervaded, destructively, throughout all manner of expression and exploitation in the past 10 years.

      It is just not a constraining or negative force, here. I would propose, even, that it's been made, here, into the most powerful form of critique there possibly could be.

      And the grief!!! and the mania!! In any sort of ... worldly-participatory context, it should not be some gargantuan leap for even the most cynical, repressed, bitter 50-something white music writer army to make the connections, here. Our tears are fucking digital, idiot.

      ...ANYway, sorry. I don't actually have any business talking about music, but I can express my big, soppy as hell appreciation for the nigh-inconceivable amount of quantitive life force for which this milestone is a handy opportunity to reflect.

    1. The best course of action is to discreetly arrange a one-to-one meeting, and sensitively explore how he’s feeling. It can be useful to write a wellness action plan together. This is a document in which the employee writes down information about the mental-health problems he’s experiencing, and what triggers exist in his workplace that contribute to these feelings. You can then draw up a strategy together for how to help him improve his mental health in the workplace, and make a list of actions that both of you can take to help get him back on track.

      A manager can sit down with the affected employee and write an wellness action plan. This will include:

      • Employee's mental health problems
      • Triggers within the workplace
      • A strategy to work together with employee to help them improve in the workplace.
      • A list of actions that can be done. e.g. Counseling, reduce working time, set limits with coworkers

    1. The minute the phrase “having it all” lost favor among women, wellness came in to pick up the pieces. It was a way to reorient ourselves — we were not in service to anyone else, and we were worthy subjects of our own care. It wasn’t about achieving; it was about putting ourselves at the WB_wombat_top of a list that we hadn’t even previously been on. Wellness was maybe a result of too much having it all, too much pursuit, too many boxes that we’d seen our exhausted mothers fall into bed without checking off. Wellness arrived because it was gravely needed.
