We all play a role in life. Oftentimes that role changes as we grow and develop. Sometimes we get fixated on a particular role and – in those cases – become a bore.
Psychologists call it “ego identification” or “ego-identity.” What parts or forces of the personality and our outer activities do we identify with?
Is a cop just a cop? A firefighter merely a firefighter? A crook only a crook?
Of course not.
So we’re all playing these roles, consciously or not. And how we view the world and how it views us largely depends on our chosen roles.
There! I just saved you about 1000 dollars and 8 months of tedium in a Psychology 101 class.
Believe in psychology or else!
But seriously, this afternoon after engaging in some lively comments at another blog, I started thinking:
Can we ever not play a role or identify…

There has been a 98% plummet in flu infections this year, dispelling fears of a Covid and flu ‘twin-demic’ about which many had warned. Experts say we can thank masks and social distancing. But does this really add up?
The deadly viruses that vanished without trace
Although there is no mass testing for flu as there is for Covid, the WHO says that surveillance of data from around the world shows flu rates collapsing everywhere.
Australia essentially ‘skipped’ their flu season this year, with not a single case reported since July (their peak). In fact, flu has more or less vanished throughout the Southern Hemisphere, and early indicators suggest it will follow suit north of the equator.
What can explain this unprecedented decline?
Why get vaccinated if there is no flu??
To my mind there are three possibilities.

As anarcho-feminists, we will always be critical of the strategies of representative democracy and this plebiscite will be no different from all previous electoral processes.

We believe that both anarchism and feminism are shaped by direct action and autonomous organization. Neither feminist parties nor parity constitutions will end our struggles. The capitalist and patriarchal system is still in place and we are still here to confront it.

Some 1,000 people gathered on Monday in Plaça Sant Jaume in Barcelona to protest against the curfew and the new limitations on their freedoms.
The protesters demanded more resources for public health, education, public transport and occupation, as well as social measures to guarantee the right to housing.
During the rally, the Mossos d’Esquadra arrested a woman who refused to identify herself, accusing her of an Attack on Authority and Aggression against the Agents.
Subsequently, a demonstration was held in the center of the city and there was a confrontation against the police who moved and blocked the demonstration outside the Parc Ciutadella.

A few months after the announcement of the victory against the Center Parc project, the State takes revenge and expels, in a riot of military devices and belligerent means, the occupiers who remained to live in the forest after the official abandonment of the Center Parc project this summer.
Wednesday 14 October 2020
Recall that a demonstration in 2014 resulted in the occupation of the forest, the immediate blocking of works and the creation of a new zad shortly after the death of Rémy Fraisse on the Sivens zad.
6 years later, the Pierre et Vacances Group, which currently has 25 Center Parcs complexes in Europe, made up of cottages immersed in forest areas, explained that it had had to give up thanks to the cumulative effect of legal remedies, occupation of the site and public mobilizations.
: “We were at an impasse, it had become inextricable between the occupation of the site, the changes in regulations, the authorizations for building permits, for land clearing, the law on water, the preservation of species and slowness of justice in the various stages, the court of appeal, the administrative court, the Council of State. It all overlapped, it was endless “
