There's a second kind of agency, on the far side of the pessimism. That kind of agency is indomitable. It is not discouraged by doom, failure or suffering.

I'm pessimistic about how our current systems & economics show no possible path to a healthy, meaningful existence on our planet. Fuck! I'm damned optimistic that we have built the technologies to collectively build the next systems & economics which will secure that existence.
