An aspect of the insanity of hyper-modernity is our arrival at an historically exceptional state of surfeit.
It’s a crazy sin.

Fossil fuels, electricity, industrial productivity.
Innovation. Inundation. Commodification.
Obesity.
Surfeit.
Notice how “innovative disruption” has become some kind of positive meme.
Disruption is problematic.
Paul Goodman said: “Innovate in order to simplify, otherwise as sparingly as possible.”
