A vibe running through the timelines.

I think understanding tenets of #Necropolitics is the only way of being able to grapple intellectually with what is going on in here right now.

#Necropolitics

At #SOTU President waxed on about employees streaming back into downtown centers (translation: hard lobbying from commercial real estate interests).

Realpolitik: The individual worker is an expendable cog. The market must be fed and protected at ALL costs. CDC is co-opted and its ambiguous messaging is meant to lull the currently-functioning worker into a false sense of safety and normalcy.

Hypometabolism in the limbic system jumps out at me as not a good thing, despite my lack of scientific training.
I will keep my eye out for grumpy people with keen powers of observation. ImageImage

Apparently, while normal cheerful folk are strolling down the daffodil lane, grumpy, limbic-challenged people are watching for snakes and piles of sabre-tool tiger poo and telling everyone to run.

Just thought of something. Don't want to forget.

Im your excitement to start work, do NOT fluff over Conflicts process including sending new client/matter around to colleagues to check out!

1.
As example, if you have a staff person who runs confl7cts checks against your firm database, things may look OK, but there is always that one time your colleague is about to file a lawsuit against your would-be client's dad.

Better to bow out early.

2.
And please don't pester the conflicts staffer. They are doing this for your own good and know more about this area than you do. Get a cappuccino or something.

That's it. 🤓😎🥸
