A social post from @lifeboatacademy which says: "Why is it that everyone I meet, that expects a pending societal collapse, is focused on weapons? Do you have seeds? Do you have tools? Do you know how to filter water? Where are your crafters? Who can blacksmith, work leather, sew, do carpentry? Who knows medicine, herblore, and can identify edible plants? We won't survive a collapse by killing each other. We will only survive with benevolent skilled communities working together. Get with it."

"The system will collapse, if we refuse to buy what they are selling - their ideas, their version of history, their wars, their weapons, their notions of inevitability. Remember this: We be many and they be few. They need us more than we need them. Another world is not only possible, she is on the way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing." -- Arhundati Roy

Daily Reflection 2025-03-19 Don't drive with the parking brake on.

We don’t want to feel obligated. But then the root meaning of obligation is simply “with strings.” There are ties that bind us together. Reconciliation = reconnection. It's about connecting the dots with the ties that bind us to all our relations.

Daily Reflections 2025-03-12 GameA vs. GameB - I know which side I'm on.

"Game B is notoriously difficult to think and talk about for the very good reason that if you were using the conceptual structures that came out of Game A to do so, you may very well be poisoning the well." - Jordan Hall

Peacemaking doesn’t mean passivity. It is the act of interrupting injustice without mirroring injustice, the act of disarmingevil without destroying the
evildoer, the act of finding a third way that is neither fight nor flight but the careful, arduous pursuit of reconciliation and justice. It is about a revolution of Love that is big enough to set both the oppressed and the oppressors free.
— Shane Claiborne, Common Prayer: A Liturgy for Ordinary Radicals

"HOW TO CHANGE THE WORLD"
Several frames starting with a crowd of stick figures with a speech bubble showing a skull and cross bones facing a lone stick figure looking perplexed and sad. The crowd looks surprised when the lone figure speaks a little heart. They respond angrily with skill and cross bones. The lone figure responds with the same heart. Then one of the crowd responds with a heart, too, but gets kicked out and crowd yells skull and crossbones. The two speak heart, then many in the crowd speak heart, one yells skull, then group speak heart to the lone one, then the lone one speaks heart.

Remember this: We be many and they be few. They need us more than we need them. Another world is not only possible, she is on her way. On a quiet day, I can hear her breathing.
