    I’ve read her book a while ago – Quiet. Must read for introverts

    Be careful what ‘labels’ you put on those that you don’t understand and those that don’t understand themselves!

      Right??? Kinda changes your outlook on the society and institutions we’re so used to … Realizing this has helped me see things more clearly without constantly having to ask myself what’s wrong with me.

    Her book Quiet is a must read, even if you’re not an introvert. I’m the “poster child” of an extravert but it helped me so much to understand people I love, and particulary my girlfriend, who are introverts…

      @@Warrior_Resisting_Colonialism I get what you’re saying, and the numbers she gives here seems pretty… suspect. Don’t know if it’s on purpose or an honnest error. But it doesn’t change the fact that reading her book helped me a lot to get why my gf was reacting so strongly to things that seemed so unimportant to me, to understand her fears…

    My freaky behavior when alone, precludes extroversion. Very few people bridge the inner sanctum and see what I do.

    As my high school teacher would say, “Define your terms. Don’t over-simplify.” How does the speaker define introverts and extroverts? Maybe people are a combination of traits. And where do people get their information when they make over-simplifying generalizations about 1,000’s of people?

    That statistic sounds like BS to me. May as well say “We didn’t actually survey anyone BUT… Some or all or more than 1% but less than 100$ are”
    Really? A third to half?

We’re living through oil wars, wildfire smoke and extreme weather driven by a warming planet. But environmentalist Bill McKibben says one thing is finally going right: the price of clean energy has plunged, making it cheaper than ever to power the world without burning fossil fuels. He breaks down how energy from the sun became the best option on Earth — and why this narrow window of time may be our last real shot at a different future. “Energy from heaven, not from hell,” he says.

Artist Joe Whale used to get in trouble for doodling in class, until a local restaurant let him cover an entire wall with his artwork … and the internet took notice. He traces his unlikely beginning to a bigger story: your imagination is a muscle, and it weakens when you hand it off to AI. Through a live doodling demo, he shows in real time what it looks like to let a thought become a drawing, one line at a time. (Recorded at Play@TED on May 14, 2026)
