How often do I read something that rings bells all the way through? These two beautiful souls truly “walk their talk,” each expressing their unique natures to connect with both fellow humans and our Mother Earth, in ways that are not just rational and logical, but sensuous and alive. I highlighted two excerpts, just to […]
Read MoreYesterday evening, at another magical Community Dinner — — this one graced beforehand with Daisy’s chalk art — — and of course before which, we began to gather for our newly inaugurated family grace — I then happened to eat dinner sitting with Sydney (seated, in pink shirt above), an astonishing crone who hasn’t been […]
Read MoreMy initial trust in Attorney General Barr’s integrity began to erode a few short weeks ago when he went along with the coroner’s report that Jeffrey Epstein had died a suicide. Watching him claim this, I sensed that he didn’t beLIEve what he was saying: “I have seen nothing that undercuts the finding of the medical […]
Read MoreI continue to be amazed at how much I enjoy our twice-weekly morning work parties. Around 10 AM Charisse texts everybody: “We will meet at this house,” or “we will meet on the patio,” or we will meet in the main garden,” etc. We straggle out from then until 10:30, prepared to do an hour […]
Read MoreDamn! We hadn’t wanted it to be inside. But given the iffy off-and-on rainy weather, we had prepared for either inside or outside. And so, yes, it ended up inside, just like a winter dinner, in the middle of summer. Oh well! But first, a bit of reflection. I see where more people in the […]
Read MoreDaniel Quinn is the author who gave us Ishmael, which catapulted him to fame in 1992. His second book, The Story of B (1996), includes his views on the historical and what we like to think of as “pre-historical” (i.e., pre-Greek) development of what he calls “totalitarian agriculture,” the gradual rise of which he links […]
Read MoreI’m still pursuing my recapitulation project (gathering and sharing hundreds of essays and longer forms written since the late 1970s, archiving them either under AK Reader or Astrology), though the project slows during the growing season. There’s a time for emergence, and there’s a time for recapitulation, and mostly, that’s a fall and winter endeavor. […]
Read MoreA short, 2 minute video for those who still need to be red pilled in this matter. Once you grok the chain of causation here, you never look at world events the same way again. Jon Perkins, who wrote Confessions of an Economic Hitman (2004) paired with Naomi Klein’s The Shock Doctrine: The Rise of Disaster […]
Read MoreToday, having driven down to our local farmer’s market, I was feeling out of sorts, walking with puppy Shadow on nearby trails, and trying to convince myself to “go back in” to the market despite having seen at the border, along with shiny police cars, a phalanx of restive black-clad, masked young ones, itching for […]
Read MoreTwo days ago, we had just finished brunch and pod meeting where, in a light-hearted manner, we brainstormed on the amazing new ventures we’re planning. One hour later, this! Gabby grabbed them in slow motion. YES! What does the dragonfly symbolize?
Read MoreI found myself utterly entranced by this 56 minute documentary made in 2010, wherein Mary Rodwell, a world famous ET/UFO conference presenter and counselor to ET contactees, takes her very skeptical veterinarian son on a ten-day journey to find the “empirical evidence” he craves. Will he be convinced? If so, what will it take to […]
Read MoreRemember the post from yesterday? What we used to call a cartoon. Now we might call it a spectacular meme: snapping an entire world view upon an emotional base. Well, this morning, Christopher Crocket commented, with another “cartoon,” even more extraordinarily informative. And the timing was so magical that I decided to post the dialogue […]
Read MoreSo much, too much, so much! Between Thursday community dinners, twice weekly work parties, special pod-only events, including movie nights and a brunch to welcome back Alex who was gone for the summer, figuring out an actual budget (first time ever!), on and on . . . we are truly beginning to “take it to […]
Read MoreI like to tell people, “Let us learn to live, as far as possible, BELOW money.” In other words, rather than valuing money above all else, rather than seeing money as “bottom line,” let us learn to recognize money as merely an artificial, human created, floating scrim on top of Nature. We have been bamboozled by […]
Read MoreI ask myself this question every day. And so far, I’ve been surprised, even astonished, at his various bold remarks, actions, and plans — and all in the face of continuous, furious TDS from all quarters. Here are excerpts from a source (via kauilapele) that I normally do not quote, but the perspective here is […]
Read MoreSo what, really, is my job, my task here on earth during this time of tremendous crisis and opportunity? Especially, what is my job, given my advanced age, 76, as one who has experienced the entire ’60s hippie movement and beyond? It seems to me that my job is to share my experience, to make […]
Read MoreAn astute researcher just sent this to me, already a year and a half old, but even more pertinent today, now that the Jeffrey Epstein case has hit the mainstream. Researcher Reports Soviets Created Child-Trafficking Rings in the West for Blackmail Unfortunately, this makes way too much sense. I remember, for example, thinking that Uranium […]
Read MoreI very much appreciate when commentators actually mention the word epistemology, and then go on to parse it, with real life examples. For how DO we learn, when an infinite number of “data points” — info, misinfo and disinfo — whistle at us from every direction and there’s no sure way of telling one from the […]
