It’s Time To Rethink the Role of First Lady

作为第一夫人和女权主义之间的思考,以及做了什么事情

Why You Should Embrace Mediocrity

  1. that the room was just not big enough to be elite.

  2. First, that words are very influential, but their meaning can often be slippery.

  3. Second, that the language of superiority and comparison can lead to disappointment.

  4. that the middle is not such a terrible place to be. In fact it’s quite a privileged place to be. It may not be as good as being at the top, but it’s surely not as bad as being at the bottom.

  5. To be very clear, the language of superiority and comparison is really good for business.

  6. Premium is all about having just a little bit extra or a little bit more, and especially a little bit extra or a little bit more compared with others.

  7. that people will pay good money for feeling better off. Even that is when this comparison doesn’t make us feel very good for very long.

  8. this is about the way that we allow words to manipulate us, even when it’s against our own best interests.

  9. How can we avoid doing symbolic violence to ourselves?

    finding a way to find the value and perhaps the privilege in being unexceptional. We have got to keep reminding ourselves that it really is not to be the best. And it’s certainly OK not to always want to be someone better or to have something better.

狼来了的故事

  1. The Boy Who Cried Wolf

There once was a shepherd boy who was bored as he sat on the hillside watching the village sheep. To amuse himself he took a great breath and sang out “Wolf, wolf, the wolf is chasing the sheep”. The villagers came running up the hill to help the boy drive the wolf away but when they arrived at the top of the hill they found no wolf. The boy laughed at the sight of their angry faces. “Don’t cry wolf when there’s no wolf ”. Later the boy sang out again “Wolf, wolf, the wolf is chasing the sheep”. He watched the villagers run up the hill to help him drive the wolf away. When the villagers saw no wolf, they sternly said “Save your frightened song for when there is really something wrong, don’t cry wolf when there is no wolf”. Later he saw something big with terrible teeth and scary eyes prowling around the sheep field. It was a real wolf. Alarmed he leapt to his feet and sang out as loudly as he could but the villagers thought he was trying to fool them again and so they didn’t come.

  1. Lying is complicated.

It takes a lot of mental work to do it. You have to come up with an entirely new story and that’s all going on inside our brains in a way that’s invisible to people watching.

电影

《蜡笔小新:爆盛!功夫男孩~拉面大乱》 8.7/10

是由其他人推荐的,有先入为主的主题“成瘾”审判,拉面是指代各种成瘾性产品,黑熊猫通过试用或者强制接触让人尝试,开始之后就会上瘾,外形变化是常见的黑眼圈,副作用是人会变得狂躁暴力,为此痴狂,连小孩都不能避免。主角团与之抗争,却走入另外一个极端。

被推荐时主要是代指手机和平板之类的电子产品,还有其他推荐是纪录片《监视资本主义:智能陷阱》,书《深度数位大扫除:3分饱连线方案,在喧嚣世界过专注人生》,这两部作品,都看过了,挺不错的。
