The Noösphere

One-dimensional narratives about the ‘underpopulation crisis’ conveniently obscure what’s really going on

The reign of strongmen may feel inevitable, but human history and evolution suggest otherwise

How the deluge of irrelevant and misleading information keeps us from focusing on what truly matters

On gender perception bias and its damaging consequences

Or, at the very least, push back against the devaluation of ‘women’s work’

On the growing empathy deficit and its impact on our happiness and collective survival

The clues have been there all along

The deeper you look, the more pervasive (and frustrating) its impact becomes

It’s certainly not women or most men

Shutting out digital noise can do more than just declutter our home screens

A year of The Noösphere in review, some personal updates, and what’s ahead

It’s women’s invisible and often underappreciated labour

And why it played a far greater role in the survival and advancement of our species than we might realise

On androcentrism, its many flawed assumptions and tricks, and research that challenges them

Some thoughts on the mess we’re in and how to climb out of it

It’s time for a new age of accountability

Yes, literally — and they can impact both our mental and physical health

On the history of female disobedience and the power structures it continues to threaten today

Yes, that includes you and me as well

And no, that’s not because men are inherently better at science and other intellectual pursuits

And why this is a cautionary tale for the digital age

Taking a leap forward shouldn’t be seen as a good thing if it brings us closer to annihilation

This female exodus was bound to happen eventually

Rigid ideas of gender impact our world in more ways than we might realise
