Trump Tells a Tale in Tulsa

I generally try to keep Trump’s jaw flapping from my ears as much as possible, while still remaining informed, but I felt called to watch his speech in Tulsa yesterday. Highly disturbing narrative he is presenting…also highly compelling and energizing for his base. It looks like he’s taking many pages out of the propaganda books […]

Yeah I Watched the ‘Plandemic’ Movie…

Ok I watched the Plandemic Movie. Not because I think it’s true, but because I thought just maybe, I could possibly learn one thing from it, even if it was just a kernel of information or truth even if it was embedded in a web of misinformation. I thought if it was going to comment […]

Critical Thinking in the Era of COVID

If you only have 5 minutes …forget about this article and read this. Charles puts what I’m trying to say in such a clear and concise way. Charles Eisenstein – The Conspiracy Myth Now, let’s begin The beliefs and values that we hold seem to be very much tied to the people and viewpoints that […]

The Masked Singer – An Exercise in Narcotic Entertainment and Rape Culture?

My housemates watch this show called The Masked Singer. It might be their favorite show and has been on the TV at least 5 hours per week the last several months. I don’t watch TV but I’m always curious what messages it’s putting out and why people like the shows they do. I guess I’m […]

Here’s to all my friends who seek truthBut don’t claim to hold itWho can say “I don’t know”Who turn down the kool-aidWhether it’s red or blueWho keep an open mindListen to their heartLook at evidenceBreak breadAnd find what’s in the silence

Fuck the Landlords 2020!

Can Ancient Jewish Wisdom Help Illuminate the Coronavirus Crisis?

I’ve been marinating on the traditional Jewish concept of Shmita, as I feel it relates to the current worldwide COVID pandemic situation and potentially holds some wisdom for the times. Shmita (also called the sabbatical year) takes place every 7 years and calls for all agricultural production to stop. Fruits and other foods that grow […]

The Systemic and Immediate Housing Epidemic

We’re at a point where systemic issues are meeting their real-life counterparts. Medical capacity is being tested. Our global financial system is in the midst of one of the great historical resuscitations. Many renters, mortgage-holders, loan-repayers, debtors, small-businesses, and others are wonder how TF they are going to pay their rent at the end of […]

Is Coronavirus Impact a Sign of Things to Come?

Most people alive today have not experienced something like this before. As we sit home practicing social distancing trying to “flatten the curve” to save lives and avoid overloading our healthcare systems, every aspect of society seems to have come to a halt. In this unfolding tragedy, overwhelming numbers of people are getting sick, dying, […]

We are seeing the remarkable resilience of our communities in doing what we need to do to limit the spread of coronavirus. We are seeing the resilience of healthcare […]

What If?

What if you could walk down the block in your neighborhood and have an abundant supply of fruit, nuts, fresh greens, edible flowers, and root vegetables? What if public parks were also food forests and ecological protection zones? What if the water that fell from the sky from rain was captured and stored from every […]
