Aber wenn er wach ist, dann hat er mehr Unsinn im Kopf als irgendein anderer Junge auf der ganzen Welt! Wie zum Beispiel an dem Tag, als Michel seinen Kopf in die Suppenschüssel steckt. Oder als er seine Schwester Ida an der Fahnenstange hochzieht. Am meisten Spaß hat Michel zusammen mit Alfred, vor allem wenn sie ein "Lustiges Leben führen"!

September 2023Being Able to Stop
Against the delusion of permanent growth
by Edited by Jean-Pierre Wils
We moderns were the inhabitants of an age of impetuous forward movement and voracious discontent. Our main virtue was to increase our reach. Increasing our having and accelerating our being were the signposts towards the future. We just could not get enough. Using the blinkers of ignorance and self-anaesthesia, however, we managed to forget the tremendous costs incurred by this intoxication. Now disillusionment has set in. We look to the future with anxiety. We know that we have long since crossed a line and that a revision of our lifestyle is imminent. We have a bad feeling, and doubts about progress often give way to anger and rebellion. Which stocks of the modern narrative should we defend; which would we do better to let go? How will we even "be able to stop"? The path to a different society needs an attractive goal, because without the prospect of a different, better life, we will not move forward. We should start practising immediately. There is no time to lose.
