I think this is a question that we have to ask ourselves first. Okay, I understand that there is outrage to strike outwardly. We have to do harm to the people who have harmed us! But that’s a false path. And truly, do you really want to premeditatively stalk someone? Do you want to retain…
Here is a collection of stories from this last week. From Ecopolitic.com.ua In Germany, ecoactivists stopped the work of the largest airports for two days in a row To me one of the greatest public choices that need to be made is to what length we agree that people can vote. What these people are…
To get the picture out of the way, I don’t know what this is except when I put a query up to get a cover photo of Kamala Harris sexy. This was photo number one. If it’s a series of fakes, and I do believe it is, that’s okay. They are gender appropriate and they…
I think that the carnivores like bicycling because it builds itself into their own love of consumption. For a carnivore to look at a bicyclist, especially a road bicyclist, there’s the opportunity to see the opportunity to claim vast expenses of time and distance for one’s self. The ultimate freedom. You are away from the…
It’s a hell of a show. I really have to admit that in the world of show business, Donald Trump is a really unique brand of performer. And I mean, it is unquestionably a show and he is unquestionably show business. I understand it sort of makes use of the presidency of the United States…
There is an activist group known as just stop oil. If you’d like to know a bit about them, here is a basic Google search for them. Just Stop Oil (JSO) wants the UK to stop approving new fossil fuel projects, which are a major cause of climate change. The group says it uses “non-violent…
I have been a dedicated bicyclist for a very long time. They didn’t have blogs around when I quit my car or maybe I would have done a whole series about it. It was a pretty easy decision. If I made a list of all of the things it did that were good and all…
I watched a video about the history of Christianity in Japan. I had never really thought about it before. I get offered quite a few Japanese things in my algorithm and it seemed worthy of 30 minutes. And indeed, it was a very interesting film that made me think quite a bit. Here is the…
Vlad Putin on Greta. It is not that he doesn’t respect young people or ideas of sustainability, it is just that the world is too complex to be understood by little girls. And of course, there is the cost of things. This is the essence of what bureaucratic double talk tends to be. I could…
Let’s start with a simple question posed to Google. What impact does war have on global warming? This from svet.charita.cz How does the military sector contribute to climate change? Militaries consume enormous amounts of fossil fuels, which have a high carbon footprint. The global military carbon footprint is the fourth highest, ranking behind the US,…
There comes a time when a person must get up and do what must be done. Traditionally, just thought has to do with going to war. I am personally not of the belief that the greatest motivator to get one up is to kill your fellow man or destroy the landscape. Sometimes I think it…
I went searching for the state of the art for the eco activist. You have to give credit to these people. To think that wanting to breathe fresh air and to stop the damage caused by completely unnecessary economic activity has become criminal and scornful seems crazy. It’s like getting a nice bowl of soup…
Originally published December 2, 2023 As a perpetual practitioner of acts of civil disobedience, I am within my own bloody rights to give the following thought. If we are talking about carnivores, the mark of a genuine killer is that they eat their prey on the field. Or at least carry it up a tree…
Originally published October 13, 2023 I’m just doing some random mental architecture here. I am on the balcony of my old apartment in town and I am looking down at the sea of automobiles in the yard below. And what I tried to get straight in my head was what would happen if they declared…
Originally published on green2022.org on November 10, 2023 I’m just sitting here riffing really. I have these crazy thoughts that go together sometimes and my habit is to put them together into some usable thing. This is what makes the Utopian fiction run. I just like solving problems so I like to make messes and…
If you would like a nice overview of Orthodox Judaism concerning Passover, you can click here to see what they have at chabad.org concerning prayers and readings and observations. I am non-traditional but observant in my own way. I am not using factory matzah this year because I am in a war with mice. If…
I asked this question of Google. The first dictionary definition I got was this. A luxuriant, dense forest rich in biodiversity, found typically in tropical areas with consistently heavy rainfall. The word luxurious means very rich which is also an adjective that is used. It means uninhibited really. When we think of luxury, we think…
I made a short film this morning. I’m really getting tired of doing this but I made a short film this morning. It’s a film about my neighbor’s story to the police when I brutally attacked her arbitrarily and without notice. I was thinking last night about Being Had. This is the book I wrote…
It seems that we have a problem with Saturdays being recognized as the Sabbath. It seems it is difficult for baseball to take Saturday’s off because the traditional days off of workers would be Saturday and Sunday and of course the nature of baseball is to sell tickets and advertising and whatever else goes along…
The relentlessly brave and remarkably overworked staff of the Utopian! has once again burst through the gates of the hollowed halls of the Empire itself to attend press conferences where questions and answers would be available. Let no one question the integrity of the Utopian! for it is us, all of us, who give us…
Hi. Welcome to the vernal equinox. It’s about right now. This is us entering into springtime. Springtime is nice. Lots of good stuff happens during the spring. Today is the spring equinox. It means this is spring. In the Northern Hemisphere the vernal equinox falls about March 20 or 21, as the Sun crosses the…
