Powerful framing through the grandmother's voice. The deliberate ambiguity around what The Decision actually was is genius beacuse it forces readers to grapple with their own agency instead of waiting for some institutional fix. I've been thinking alot about how the "quiet revolution" concept maps onto Elinor Ostrom's work on commons governance. The shift from ownership to stewardship you describe through the rental economy isnt just environmental its fundamentally restructuring property relations.
Thank you for this feedback and also the deeper reflections. I am so with you, and I think shift from ownership and stewardship is going to have a radical impact on how we see ourselves, our communities, and the world. So much worth exploring here -- thank you for diving deeper on behalf of our future!
I think this work is so important because without imagining the future that we want, how can we and others stay positive and have any defence against the futures we don't want. That's why I started my Substack Newsletter — Afterseed and started my Novella — Plastic People.
All that breathing humanity will be directed towards written words of Religion for that, that is written will be, or made to be as it is written. By faith.
