Doggos and I enjoy hiking, gardening, camping, healthy living, and weekend adventures. We live in the low desert of south-central Arizona. We hope to connect with like-minded folks 🤗
One eye green and the other is black. One eye looks toward the sky.
The other watches the earth.
And when he looks at you,
you can’t help but wonder,
what has he seen that we haven’t?

We are entering a distinctly new season. The era of cheap money and effortless abundance has quietly slipped into the past. We must look clearly at why this landscape is changing and how we can gather our strength for the road ahead.
It is tempting to blame rising costs on banking institutions. /1

I have a theory that I believe is deeply controversial, but fundamentally correct. It’s a framework for understanding the current geopolitical and domestic landscape that moves beyond the daily noise of partisan politics. I call it the "Controlled Demolition" theory.
The premise is this: 1/1

Never, ever follow the crowd.
You need not be a leader, but never be a blind follower. Use your own brain, internal compass, and gut instinct. You will never be led wrong in doing so.

A life is a fire. Some people smolder. Some burn steadily. Some throw gasoline on the whole damn thing and disappear in a magnificent flash.
We're not entirely in control of the fire.
But we get to decide, to some degree, what we throw into it.

The diarrhea lettuce company, Taylor Farms, uses slave labor contracted from the Arizona Dept. of Corrections. The backbreaking labor is often performed by imprisoned Mexican nationals who would be otherwise ineligble to work in the US. They are paid $1.50 an hour.
The Diarrhea Lettuce Company Has Been Linked to Forced Labor
The lettuce-producing Taylor Farms was linked to the widespread use of prison labor before its involvement in a cyclospora outbreak.
