    "existential joyism" "existential peace" "existential co-responsibility”
    existential joyism!! -- yes, yes!!
    We need to imagine that 1000 years of joy.
    1000 years of joy would be great for us right now.
    Maybe our vision will be corrected after 2020.

    - where developing a new dangerous tech,
    which would be problematic 'in the wrong hands';.
    - ?; is there ever a sense that eventually, somehow, some-when,
    in the deep future, that that tech will *not* for sure eventually
    be in the wrong hands?.
    - where knowing this;
    knowing that it is a 'make guns for the natives';
    ie provide a capability that they would not have had
    if not for your contribution;
    ?; who is more responsible, the person who both invented and made the gun and the bullets,
    (thousands of hard to make choices by many many people)
    or the person who pulled the trigger
    (one easy to make choice by only one person)?.

    System of the people, ecosystem, etc, by the people/ecosystem/etc, for the people/ecosystem…
    finite game --> infinite game --> continuous design.
    ie; integrated discernment and design.

    The total leadership of the world will make choices on the basis of their notion of the total world economic value -- something like 350 trillion USD. Yet the actual value of the unicity of the Life of Earth, in the context of the entire universe, is on the order of 1 quadrillion quadrillion dollars -- an entirely different order of value. To place this level of requirement on the shoulders of any subgroup is unreasonable.

    where for critical issues, such as x-risk;
    that I would trust, as yet undiscovered, group wisdom process over trust of any new or old variation of the great man theory.

    Melanie expressed what Nietzsche said of Balance
    ~At times our strengths propel us so far forward, we cannot endure our weakness and perish from it.

    some parliaments have an "Ombudsman for the Future" - Israel, Sweden etc. - Canada and USA should get with that idea
    "Planetary management by Objectives: The Manual”

    I had a screenplay Idea a few years ago about a simulated reality where they were trying to figure out how to prevent Existential Risk… this is making me want to revisit that as a well to get people to really think about it. Create media that sends a message.

    Has anyone seen
    the movie Mindwalk?

    The topic for our next session will be, how can we take advantage of these times as we come out of Covid?
