A Gaian Perspective on Tariffs, Free Trade and the Creative Process Might there be the seeds of opportunity buried in the current crisis?

The US tariff debacle looks different viewed through Gaian eyes. And so does the creative process.

@mandascott.bsky.social it's unintentional and for all the wrong reasons, but could it be that in these early weeks of 2025 we are seeing the roll-out of "de-growth" policies never thought attainable before? Of course, another word for "de-growth" is "collapse."

I am wondering what people think about liberals who insist on keeping their Teslas. To me it’s like becoming a walking advertisement for just what you detest. Thoughts?

Our coup got coupier. Our authoritarianism got more authoritarian. And of course this is stupidity as a battering ram against what is legal and constitutional, because they weaponize stupidity.

Why are campuses quiet as democracy is in crisis? (opinion) The stakes are too high for higher ed to stay out of the fray, Austin Sarat writes.

An opinion piece only a tenured professor could write. Why are faculty & students quiet? It’s the precariat, stupid.

From The Contrarian chat, some good questions! "Why don’t Schumer and Jeffries call an emergency meeting of all senators and representatives and the march to the Capitol steps and tell the press a coup is underway....Why aren’t they breaking the glass on the alarms now!!" @thecontrarian.bsky.social

Understanding His Sick Game We’re being bombarded with crazy by the White House. Here’s how to handle it.

"Trump thrives on chaos because he gets to be the hero who stops it, even if he was the one who started it. He’s an arsonist who puts out a fire then demands a medal for it." Trump is just distracting the audience so the criminal Musk can do his work.

How Elon Musk’s deputies took over the government’s most basic functions Elon Musk and his allies are harnessing tech units and other agencies that handle daily federal operations to amass sweeping control of the executive branch.

This is the only thing to be watching now. Everything else is just a distraction.

No way around but through Trying to understand the logic of what's happening in America, and to imagine a way through the current chaos to a safer, saner world. It's not easy!

Trying to understand the logic of the bloodless coup taking place before our very eyes. Trying to imagine how we get through this without becoming a soviet-style police state ruled by tech oligarchs. We need our thrutopian writers and dreamers now more than ever.
