how to be a person that gives “loving attention” (which Iris Murdoch believed was important to draw us outward, rather than draw attention inward to self-centered concerns)
There was a really fascinating series of articles written by a cryogenics true believer who was disheartened and disillusioned by what he saw trying to be a pioneer in the industry in the 70s and 80s and how the bodies were nistreated. It also discussed how many of these projects couldn't self sustain and the bodies were allowed to thaw and turn into sludge
we all have needs that need to be tended to. I always wonder, what if care is the work? What if caring for ourselves is the revolution, meaning, what would happen if we divested from dismantling white supremacist capitalist patriarchy and invested our energy in equitizing the care we are able to provide one another?
