If hazards stop being rare, stop being predictable, and/or produce damages that aren’t easily reparable (or suggest that a building should not be rebuilt in that location), the existing market structures for both property insurance and property more broadly won’t work.
Home Insurance is a Really Big Problem
This is a broken assumption of the insurance market. It’s based on money, not security. The problem is that we don’t organize the problem correctly. We don’t need to protect against specific kinds of events. We need to protect specific people. Everyone is worth protecting. What if insurance was designed to help us figure out exactly how valuable everyone was to protect and to who?
The model flips and the math is way easier.

An idea kept private is as good as one you never had.
Ideas not shared are lost to time
Collapsed states are simpler states, so anyone working towards a simpler state — and anyone telling an intelligible tale is doing precisely that — is working towards a collapse. The failure of a world begins with a failure of the imagination to comprehend increased complexity, and an urge to retreat to greater simplicity.
every story is a degrowth story
Economics of Human Energy and What we value
I don’t think this is necessarily degrowth, it’s compression. This feels like simplicity is a return to understanding of what’s valuable after building on top of it. It’s the flower budding, blooming, wilting, and blooming again. It’s cyclical and growth oriented, because uncapped growth is deadly to the environment and will be rejected.
Instead of competing in the algorithmic feeds, create the content that is the most uniquely yours. Create the content you are interested in creating. Share your story. Share what is uniquely you. Fuck the algorithm.
