Despair and Alternatives

Cindy Sheehan quits the Peace Movement and the DINOcratic party.

This is not good, people.

This is not her fault.

We all need breathers sometimes. We all have our limits- that there's only so much any one of us can do. I know I've disappointed other people by my own limitations: time, the money I can give, even my own general bad attitude towards leaders...

Americans- maybe humans in general- form personality cults.

But what's happening in this country is bigger than personalities.

I'll take the gamble of suggesting the next $election could well be our last if people don't stand together and get over their feelings.

Help the hamsters with their winter heating bill ...

… as they power the wheels that turn the servers at The Mighty Corrente Building. Please, won’t you help them keep their cages shiny?

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.
