This is an order, folks. Subscribe to Geoffrey. He's featured in this post and has been in prior ones. (Hit the link to read what I posted on a post of his plus some conversation we had there.) He's the real deal, from head and heart!!! We have to work from where we are to get where we're going and and Geoffrey will rivet you in the calamity of now.
Thanks Suzanne! I appreciate your “going gets tough/tough get going” attitude.
Painful as the current state of affairs is, it was probably a necessary stimulus to make us reconsider our current consumptive, competitive, exploitative, accumulative trajectory — one that can only lead to eventual collapse. I had hoped that a critical mass could wake up, understand, and set a new course. But no, we all want our investments to “go up” (those of us who still have them), so the train rolls on.
I regularly return to the Buckminster Fuller quote: “You never change things by fighting the existing reality. To change something, build a new model that makes the existing model obsolete.”
The immediate response to last week’s election: fight! organize!, resist!, oppose! — righteous though those sentiments may be in theory, is clearly the "old model". In practical terms, over the past half-century they have failed to deliver the world we hope for.
To put it simply, any strategy based on posing enemies, then fighting and opposing them, is a recipe for continued failure. We’d spend eternity playing Whack-a-Mole in a Hall of Mirrors.
Your initial calls for a committee or other body to rise above the fray, tap into a new level of conscious, and begin to articulate a new vision for society are right on the mark and vitally needed.
Yes, I'm totally on your wavelength -- as usual. You are on the list for Zooming as I try to get more power players.

They said, "Now, Congress is on the verge of handing him a powerful new weapon to attack political dissidents and nonprofit news outlets like The Intercept....Our reporters are sounding the alarm about this draconian legislation, and your donations are an absolutely vital source of funding for this reporting.

Suzanne, you are 110% correct! If we fall into the money-vs-money trap, "they" have us out-gunned a million to one. Guaranteed loss. It's time for a more transcendental approach!
I can feel the vibe of being in an open wound together -- like in circumscribed disasters where we are a connected, feeling body. Yes to you, and note that courageous action is starting to be underway. It sure is for me, where I'm bolder that I ever have been.

Yes, people need to wake up and use their heads, like their mother probably told them a few times!
Big yes. It is so dogshit logical to be good.

Suzanne, you are 110% correct! If we fall into the money-vs-money trap, "they" have us out-gunned a million to one. Guaranteed loss. It's time for a more transcendental approach!
From the video and what you said it sounds like we've hit rock bottom, and that's hopefully where change comes.
Message landed!
We have not hit bottom unless we have the courage to act. Be afraid. Don't wait for leadership, they brought us here.
I can feel the vibe of being in an open wound together -- like in circumscribed disasters where we are a connected, feeling body. Yes to you, and note that courageous action is starting to be underway. It sure is for me, where I'm bolder that I ever have been.

If you say so...it takes all styles to save this world. For sure the Divine Feminine knows best!

I cannot agree less.
The world needs action, not just words and blabbings. Sadly, we're running outta time already
What I say is all about how we the people can take action, so what do you disagree with?
when the turmoil comes and we get a political opening we need to know what our demands must be and they must include petrocommunism so we can rapidly decrease FF emissions and you can find out about that on my substack
