“Man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were Read more…
I recently saw an online post that emphasized toxic problems with the Industrial Agricultural system and the need to go more into permaculture. What struck me was the series of comments that emphasized how many people were locked into the myth of the ‘Green Revolution’ as the only way to Read more…
A continuation of a fictional reflection by a hundred-year-old Espe from 2112 about the start and on-going movement of transformation to Sustainable Living. I add clarification links and quotes as needed. It would be too easy to just record that the future was going to get better for humanity and Read more…
A continuation of a fictional reflection by a hundred-year-old Espe from 2112 about the start and on-going movement of transformation to Sustainable Living. I add clarification links and quotes as needed. I still recall the profound sadness I experienced as a young woman at the numbers of people whose life Read more…
A continuation of a fictional reflection by a hundred-year-old Espe from 2112 about the start and on-going movement of transformation to Sustainable Living. I add clarification links and quotes as needed. It is hard for our young in 2112 to fully understand how so many of the world’s population in Read more…
I have been watching political leaders, all over the world, during this past two and a half years since Covid started and what strikes me is how in lockstep they all were, and still are, all parroting the same agenda as if reading from the same script. I watch the Read more…
The middle way – Mutual Benefit – Altruism: Love, Compassion and Non-violence (e.g., the Dalai Lama, Gandhi) – The power of truth must come through openness and transparency with no censorship and certainly no lies. I titled this post ‘health freedom’ but it could just as easily have been about Read more…
Another long post today – there’s so much to say and I am merely summarizing. As many if my regular readers will know, I am a natural skeptic and follow a Pyrrho of Elis kind of thinking (see a very early post Skepticism {January 2018}). I have long been skeptical Read more…
I last commented on the C19 vaccines in September of 2021 – so it’s a long post today. It’s time to revisit what is going on while keeping an eye on the great ‘Cognitive Distractions’ occurring around the world. But before I get to my update below, what I find Read more…
For the last couple of centuries, the urban environment has been designed to push nature back beyond the edges of the human built world with manicured parks and tree lined roads within the urban boundaries. We even design many of our modern buildings with heat and air conditioning to keep Read more…
Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness – this is a well-known phrase from the United States Declaration of Independence. I doubt the founding fathers of the new United States in the 1780s envisioned a time could occur when the government would conspire with corporate interests to cause a loss Read more…
If you are still debating whether to get jabbed or not, my advice, DON’T. It will not be any surprise to regular readers of my blog that I think something more serious than the Covid (C-19) pandemic is going on. My reasoning for this is in this blog post. I Read more…
Most people do not associate food with their sovereignty, but it is one of the most crucial freedoms we have. For most people it is a simple process of going to the grocery store, but stop and think about the process that controls the food you find on the shelves. Read more…
I went online and looked at many varying opinions about 5G and health effects. Like most issues, the opinions were quite polarized. It really came down to the telecom industry and scientists (most that were connected to the telecom industry in some way through employment or research funding) saying there Read more…
Regular readers will notice that I write a lot about how we think and how that in turn creates the world in which we live. Whether we get a dystopia or a utopia is completely dependent on what we believe that in turn creates the actions we support for either Read more…
“Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself or herself” Leo Tolstoy. I will be going down the rabbit hole a bit more on this post. If you undergo a physical trauma then you need a hospital trauma unit and that is where modern medical Read more…
In much earlier posts (Health – Sickcare 1 & 2) I have talked about the Microbiome and its importance to our personal health. There is much news about more natural health care, but then there is also the response from the science and medical community that automatically debunks such options. Read more…
In my last post I talked about the need for a positive mind frame to create a sense of well-being. While mindset is one of the factors for a healthy life, there are many others. As I have been travelling recently I was surprised at how difficult it is in Read more…
I have read several times now from different sources, “who thought it was a good idea to put poison on our food and think it would have no consequences?” Two of the largest chemical companies (Bayer and Monsanto) in the world have been given the go ahead from the US Read more…
I started this blog to get people thinking for themselves. I have done some down the rabbit hole material, but I find I fall in to the trap of being merely reformational in what I say much of the time. I realized this when I picked up the latest Read more…
Like most technology of the last 70 years, we start with what sounds like a great idea and then rush it to mass production without any real consideration of long-term consequences. Then when consequences arise (as they always seem to do) we find that big money, scientists funded by them, Read more…
I have discussed how science works and especially how its reporting (or not) is affected by monied interests and governments. This is an interesting case study where the EMF issues resembles so many other issues concerning health and environment. Besides EMFs that occur from electrical wire sources and equipment, there Read more…
When I was 14 years old, my parents moved us to another house in my home town. It had a field opposite with large power lines running across the field. About that time, I noticed that in damp weather the lines crackled and occasionally seemed to emit sparks around the Read more…
I have briefly stated it in previous posts, and I have a whole chapter in my SL text about Happiness. In economic posts I mention that what we really value and want is not what we measure. In a class I had a colleague snigger when I told the class Read more…
As I have been trying to emphasize, healthy food makes healthy humans. Michael Pollan says that when you walk into a modern store, you should avoid the center isles that carry all the processed and dangerous crap (I use that C-word purposefully) and head to the fringes of the store Read more…
I saw a great quote yesterday – “The elite create myths in order to debunk myths they don’t like” – could have been something straight out of writer Eco Umberto’s ‘Foucaults Pendulum.’ An anecdote I have seen attributed to several people is, “When did putting poisons on our food seems Read more…
Before we begin, a personal email from a friend (would be great if readers could leave comments on the blog for all to see), says that I am beginning to sound a lot like a conspiracy theorist. Interesting. Remember that old humor maxim, “just because you’re paranoid doesn’t mean they Read more…
Obviously before modern medicine, people were still dying in droves of relatively minor things like infections and undefined ailments. The point I am making is that medicine and pharmaceutics insist that there is only ONE WAY to treat medical problems. While on the edges of the field many highly qualified Read more…
I wasn’t able to deal with healthcare as much in my SL text, so now seems a good time. We ALL want to be healthy, and with our modern medicine you would think that we should have no health issues of consequence, especially when compared to previous times in human Read more…
