I want a dumb life. An ode to the unoptimized life: choosing wonder, slowness, and dirt under my nails in a world obsessed with smart things.

The collapse of our civilization is happening just slowly enough to ignore. That’s not a good thing.

The Three Cs of the Billionaire Economy If we learn how the Billionaire class creates, bolsters and secures itself, we can destroy it.

There are three things the Billionaire Economy needs to survive: Consolidation, Communication and Conflict. Here are my thoughts.

People keep asking "What can I do? Give me something tangible."

The single most productive thing we can do is to "Buy Less, Buy Local, Buy Small."

This more than anything will change the paradigm of American Politics. It may take time but it will work.

The 1st way to Boycott a Billionaire

Problem: Need a book without giving Bezos (or some other billionaire) a handout?

Solution: Check out Bookshop.org. You buy a book, and a local bookstore gets the profits. It doesn’t get much simpler than that.

I have an uncle that my dad used to describe this way:

If you don’t like him, it says more about you than it does about him.

I feel the same about Canada.
