Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism.
This week, we talk about the tendency to treat other people as "NPCs" and why looking for patterns is maybe not always the best way to understand our love lives. And then we tackle a question about how to convince your loved ones to go for communal living.
Stuff We Talk About:
“Men make history, but not under circumstances of their choosing…”
James Muldoon, Love Machines
Sarah Thankam Mathews, All This Could Be Different
Kristen Ghodsee, Everyday Utopias
Helen Hester & Nick Srnicek, After Work
We are Craig Gent, a writer and researcher living in Leeds, and Sarah Jaffe, a journalist and author based in London.
