Paper Faces - The Human Psyche: MISSED OPPORTUNITIES
FACES. We all have them. They fascinate me. Expressions in particular - from subtle to extreme.
OLD PAPER. These too share qualities of human expression. From long ago handwritten notes, aged newspapers and maps to worn paper stained with time. In this series of prints, I combine them to create whimsical "stories" about the nature of being human.

Schneier gets the Internet Points today for introducing me to the term "WEIRD" countries. (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic). Neat paper too

Schneier on Security · Is Security Human Factors Research Skewed Towards Western Ideas and Habits? - Schneier on SecurityReally interesting research: “How WEIRD is Usable Privacy and Security Research?” by Ayako A. Hasegawa Daisuke Inoue, and Mitsuaki Akiyama: Abstract: In human factor fields such as human-computer interaction (HCI) and psychology, researchers have been concerned that participants mostly come from WEIRD (Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic) countries. This WEIRD skew may hinder understanding of diverse populations and their cultural differences. The usable privacy and security (UPS) field has inherited many research methodologies from research on human factor fields. We conducted a literature review to understand the extent to which participant samples in UPS papers were from WEIRD countries and the characteristics of the methodologies and research topics in each user study recruiting Western or non-Western participants. We found that the skew toward WEIRD countries in UPS is greater than that in HCI. Geographic and linguistic barriers in the study methods and recruitment methods may cause researchers to conduct user studies locally. In addition, many papers did not report participant demographics, which could hinder the replication of the reported studies, leading to low reproducibility. To improve geographic diversity, we provide the suggestions including facilitate replication studies, address geographic and linguistic issues of study/recruitment methods, and facilitate research on the topics for non-WEIRD populations...
TO FRIENDS & FOLLOWERS: I am in the midst of creating new work to show you. Please stay tuned and thank you! :-)

To show you guys how fucked-up the system is let's consider the following hypothetical situation: Imagine you are on a remote continent. That continent is a whole, separated country with its own constitution, laws and other legal BS. And one day the food supply in the country gets disrupted. Eventually, there is no food. Let's say all you people now have and will have for the rest of your life is water. The other thing is that cannibalism is forbidden and punishable by the law. The rest of the thinking is yours ...

"The Intransigence of Now" | Do the Math

https://dothemath.ucsd.edu/2023/11/the-intransigence-of-now/

«The nearly impossible task, then, is to convince people that this time is not normal: it cannot persist, nor could its direct derivatives. It’s very similar to telling someone they’re the villan, an adolescent that they don’t know what they’re talking about, an elder that they don’t know what’s good for them, or a mentally impaired person that they are nuts. How does that usually work out? After all this time, we still haven’t figured out how to do these things—not in one shot, certainly.
It’s one thing to convince someone that their notions about the pangolin are entirely wrong. Most people have little knowledge or personal stake in the ways of the pangolin. But people immersed in modernity are going to have strong opinions, feeling that they know a thing or two about it. In addition, it is the only thing they’ve ever known. Saying that modernity is a temporary fireworks show is like saying: all you have ever known is an illusion—not as “real” or permanent as you have come to believe. Yet, modernity is what we see out the window. It’s very real and tangible—not easily argued away.»

Any #psycologists have tips for dealing with this reasoning?

Republicans sign a letter saying they want Weiss as special counsel.

Weiss is appointed special counsel.

Same Republicans complain that Weiss is the one that was appointed because he can't be trusted.

I'm genuinely asking how someone can exist while using that line of reasoning. We even let them run they're own investigation that doesn't turn up anything and it's still not good enough.

"During the COVID-19 pandemic, many people had different opinions on whether they should follow safety rules. But what traits made some people more likely to reject these rules? A study published in Psicothema suggests that being psychopathic and impulsive had a bigger impact on not following the rules compared to intelligence."
