A variety of leaves in various stages of decomposition on the forest floor. There's a red leaf in the middle of the photo. It is surrounded by yellow and brown leaves and tiny bits of greenery.

Every square inch of the forest floor is a work of art. ✨

Neighbourhood Folk - House Concert - Fall Equinox 2025 - 2025 09 25 2/13 Lynn Canyon - 2005 03 03 - the cool, late afternoon light of early spring glancing off cold stream tossed boulders  Entry - Taking the Plung...

I got my next instalment written from our house concert - this one is about a poem for all you wild swimmers - about entry (how you get in) and taking the plunge (the courage of our convictions). Be strong everyone - bring your creative works.

Wow congratulations!

Working on the worm bins - after a big rain they are not happy - I need to figure out a better top for their bins

You must have a chuckle every time you look at hazel and whatever expression is on her face

We just completed a year of first Sundays - gatherings at my house at 2 pm to share songs, stories, and poems. We have met our neighbours and made new friends. Last Monday we had our first house concert based on a year of first Sundays. It was incredibly uplifting. I am still buoyed by the event.

I think it reveals the depth and breadth of extortion that has been the shadow power for decades. Without the Epstein files there are going to be many freed and many more removed from positions of power. If someone has power, ask to see their degrees of separation from Epstein and Trump.

I'm confused. Can we define 'small' government? Can we define 'socialism'? Can we define 'corporate welfare'? Can we define 'state-owned businesses'? All these years, the hint of universal healthcare - "NO SOCIALISM". My head is spinning. Please make it stop. Remove Republicans from power.

I'm loving the statue strategy. Using those awful monuments to colonization and tyranny to support the work of democracy and removing dictators. Really great.

It turns out we actually have great power at our fingertips. Apparently the shareholders of companies following Trump's dictates don't like when the value of their shares plummet because of capitulation. Maybe they aren't in the Epstein files. That might be a lead to check.

Can we cancel Jeff Bezos?

Say hello to your neighbours. Make friends. Lay in supplies. Get ready for siege. You are under attack and they are escalating. Start to plan for new social systems and organizational structures. Everything is going to fall as the Epstein pressure builds.

Dahlia season. So much magic on every street.

If you organize in shifts you can keep it up 24/7 - they will get completely worn down coping with the noise.

How about this? Government shutdown = General strike. No government, no work. Organize, make friends with your neighbours, source your supply chains and shut the whole thing down. If you prepare, you will last longer than they will.

Love whales. Healthy whales = healthy humans.

Remove Fox channels from cable company packages. Or however people find this garbage.

Can we drop Hoekstra across the border and just be done with this nonsense?

What Hoekstra really means is ‘How dare you not bend knee and kiss a**.’

🖕you Hoekstra.

Save the world. Remove Republicans from every elected position from coast to coast, from Canada to Mexico. There is no elected position too small to warrant attention. Many of us don't have any idea how to run for election. We are learning.

This is our work everyday now. We cannot let tyranny dictate the narrative. We can tell the truth, empower each other, build our confidence and courage, and formulate plans for new organizational structures. Just push and push and push. They will fall back because they are cowards and full of shame.

Ukraine should be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize - they have been protecting the rest of the world from Putin's aggression while strategically reducing his capacity and capability. Slava Ukraine!

I hope the first strategic hits are oil refineries and fuel depots. That will severely limit Putin's range.

Someone knows and if you pay them enough, they will tell all.

The Little Rock Nine entering school in 1957

Today in 1957, the Little Rock Nine walked through hate with soldiers at their side. Only Ernest Green left that high school with a diploma. The rest were driven out. Now we gut schools, ban truth and call it freedom. The mob never left, it just changed its mask. #Resist

The antidote to corruption, capitalism and consumerism is creating your best self and works and then sharing with you neighbours. Host a potluck and find out who lives across the street. This may be vital to everyone's survival in the days ahead.

The more of Putin's fuel depots and rigs we destroy the less distance he can cover for shorter times. Removing his access to oil and gas would hamstring him. Let's help Ukraine in her efforts to render Putin toothless.

No problem. Can she get the series up on Netflix?
