What if your first thought in politics wasn't "how do I win," but "how do we solve this together?" That’s the jury mindset. See how shifting from a political contest to a community dialogue could restore the trust we’ve lost in our institutions.

Ever feel like politics is just one big, exhausting culture war? Belgium tried something radical by letting 50 randomly selected citizens call the shots on the issues that actually matter. See why they're focusing on real life issues instead of just trying to get in the headlines

Soldiers in World War I invented secret codes of cooperation. They would not shoot at certain times, and a strange kind of chivalry grew in the middle of the trenches. By thinking about their own self-interest and that of the enemy, they found a way to entangle them.../

Every human conversation demands a careful balance between shared goals and private desires. When your personal motives dominate the interaction, the entire social ecology collapses. The balance between the shared and the private is the essence of whether our systems function.

Open competition for power in our politics has its downside. We need some countervailing institutions to slow the rise of psychopaths to the top and to focus democracy on what kind of future we want rather than on which memes can be got to fly.

There is a way to see exactly when politicians are ignoring you for their funders. We do not need permission from the government to start building this new constitutional pillar. The campaign for real accountability begins with us.

You’re being tricked into amplifying the very things you hate. In a real-life pub, we’d just ignore the loudmouth, but the internet turns our outrage into profit, creating the rise of rage bait. See why the attention stack is rigged against us and how we can change the game.

Do you feel like politicians are just putting on a show? You're right. Our whole electoral system is built for drama, not deliberation. Discover why your vote feels like a ticket to a bad play.

We’ve convinced ourselves that elections are the only way to run a democracy, but we’re missing half the picture. There’s a second, even more powerful way to represent the people that we already trust in courtrooms, so why aren't we using it in government?

🔴 The Warmonger, even after creating so much current CHAOS around the globe, now has his eyes locked on Cuba. There is nobody who can make an AUTHENTIC deal with such an irrational profligate. He operates on the lunatic fringe.

Episode 37 of #StoryOfKunningPalace #cdrama broke my heart 😭 and the worst part is that I knew it would happen, because its not my first time 💔 At least revenge was serve fast. But it was so unfair. It was no need! Always was already in motion. My sweet angel 🥺

Deja vu. Not going in early, for once. But, needless drama got stirred yesterday, with a coworker accusing me of a malicious act. Today(?) I may, or may not, find out whether this gets blown out of proportion or gets squashed [as it should.] Any spare thoughts, prayers welcome.

So I'm seeing #Carney brag-lying about #sustainable nataional extraction projects that will not be friendly to the #environment at all. Anyone that wants to talk about #CleanEnergy better start talkin' about the fact that the People's Republic's artificial sun will be up & running in four years.
