It’s too on the nose. Fate is just mocking my powerlessness now.
Part of my master’s thesis was about panopticism, and I’m not sure I wanna laugh or cry at this.
Not sure if its helpful but in cases like these i usually alternate laghter and cry, stsrting with more laugh and ending with more crying. Im sure you too can do it in 5 minutes
tbh I don’t think foucault is someone we should be praising all that much. He spent the last year of his life having unprotected sex with as many people as possible to give them aids
a significant chunk of his philosophy was just him trying to morally justify his own paedophilia. As a philosopher he’s like if Jimmy Saville used his radio show to talk about being a sexual predator
the man was fucking evil
“Open Office Layout”
EDIT: Wikipedia: Open Plan
Okay I perfectly understand all the cons and why people dislike open office layouts but it’s way better than what we used to have with cubicals
I’d go fucking insane if I had to work in this shit. This environment is way more prison like
I respectfully disagree comrade. Certainly the average person can differ greatly in their preferences and one resolution can be a mixed layout or adjustable office space, but I think it’s good to have boundaries, at least as an option. Plus the Wikipedia article (grain of salt as always) I referenced appeared to note a lot of negative effects, even going so far as to affect physical health.
In that picture most of the immiseration (besides capitalism) seems to be caused by the color, crowding, and lighting.
Cubicles are so much better than that open office crap. At least for cubicles you can (somewhat) personalize your space, can (somewhat) get away with dicking around on company time, and can (sometimes) get away with doing shit that you’re not supposed to do on company time. Just get a bunch of small cubicle mirrors strategically placed so you won’t get surprised by unwanted guests.

obviously the only correct stance is working from home with a cat sleeping on your lap
Open plans are definitely way less inclusive of people with more sensitive senses for sure
I wonder if companies started adapting open floor plans partially to filter out people who can’t thrive in them
I.e. people on the spectrum and less social people
