David Graeber attempts to synthesize the insights of Karl Marx and Marcel Mauss. He sees value as a model for human "meaning-making". Starting with Marxist definitions of consumption and production, he introduces Mauss’s idea of "objects that are not consumed" and constructs a list of things that are neither consumption nor production. Graeber’s list includes those human activities that are not consumption, in the narrow sense of simply purchasing something, and are not production, in the sense of creating or modifying something intended for sale or exchange. It includes:

* cooking a meal
* extinguishing a fire
* dressing and undressing
* applying makeup
* watching television
* playing in a band
* falling in love
* reading
* listening to music
* going to a museum or gallery
* taking a photograph
* gardening
* writing
* conducting a coming of age ceremony
* going window shopping
* exercising
* acting
* turning around in a circle
* teaching
* having an argument
* playing games
* having sex
* attending a religious service
* looking at old photos

It's amazing. They managed to wedge an 'in popular culture' into an economics article.

it's all a very serious description of how not to burst a bubble, and then some mouthbreather starts talking about video games.

also, if you follow the links on the page it leads you to like eight other famous economic bubbles, one of which was the recent US one

I always wonder who it is that talks like this. I imagine it's a kind of Adam Gadahn type character except for Japanese culture instead of radical Islam.

the Yakuza are criminals but they don't bust out a lot of public violence. I'm sure they disappear a lot of enemies/hookers but they don't have shootouts in the middle of Tokyo or anything.
