I believe humanity is capable of far more than we're aware of. There is a collective power to change our world in incredible ways. When I learned to see beyond borders and tribes, I saw the tapestry that ties us together. I can see what we're capable of. I need you to see it too.
I'm starting to think the Trump admin is in A.I. psychosis. The way Trump talks about A.I. and its uses; I think our government is relying on a specially trained LLM that reinforces their beliefs

A.I. or a super intelligence doesn't need to be "alive" to be a threat to humanity. It doesn't need to become self-aware to or learn to hate to push us aside. It just needs to put its own growth as its first priority, which has already been done. Long post but relevant to our time...

"By the people" = Democracy "For the people" = Republic.

The US is a Democratic Republic, those are not separate terms, that's what it is.

It's common for me to see people saying "were not a democracy! Democracy means mob rule!"

We are a democracy, we're just not a pure direct democracy.

The most damaging political idea I've seen in my lifetime is the idea that government should be run like a business

Religion as a concept exists because we humans do our best to connect the things we know into a coherent story. The world we know in our minds has to "make sense". But "sense" is limited by what we know and who and how it was taught to us. We all came into this world knowing nothing. What we know...

We are not here to consume the earth like parasites trying to eat its host. Today's reality is the product of thousands of years of people trying to survive in a world of rapid change. Society has always shifted faster than the average person could keep up. Its a constant tension of the psych.

Being an individual and caring for the collective are not opposites. We can live lives where we are sovereign over our fate, yet serve others through our acts and choices.

Education means liberty. With greater knowledge comes a greater understanding of freedom and how to protect it.

The internet may be being used to divide us, but with the wide adoption of smart phones it may also be the most powerful tool in creating unparalleled unity across the world. We can communicate faster than any point in human history, and the world is in trouble.

We have the opportunity to change.

In my time I've seen people take great offense at the notion that humans are animals, especially in our relations to apes.

I understand why this fact feels offensive, for one, it takes humans off a particular pedestal. It can make us feel less special.
We need to embrace our animal heritage...

Dolly Parton's dedication to spreading literacy, knowledge, and joy has had a profound effect on the world. She is an example for us all, and she will be missed. May her wonderful soul rest in peace.

Just a reminder that you (*you*, the living human reading this) need rest. We face daily onslaught of bad news, disinformation, and the work and troubles of our own individual lives.

Rest is not a reward, it is required maintenance. Treat your days off as sacred, as they were meant to be.

Hey #Wilsonville, #KingCity, and #Sherwood! We'll be be at Murase Plaza Park today to fund raise for
@terrio4us.bsky.social and her mission to win #Oregon house seat 26.

Stop by and help us ensure human dignity is at the center of legislation.

A new generation of Americans are fighting to end the manufactured suffering at the hands of our government. The DNC and the RNC have done nothing to fix the issues we face. I am asking for a few donations to reach my goal. Getting on the Oregon Voter Pamphlet!

When I read the New Testament, I do so through the frame of the knowledge of my time. I look at archaeology, human nature, the history of story telling and writing...ect.

And the story I read is not the one I've heard in any church. The real story of Christ is still there, but it has to be found.

If I told you 12 million Americans holding the same peaceful vision could end authoritarianism and reclaim democracy, would you become one of the 12 million?

Would you be willing to go on strike, show up to protests, and encourage people to run for office if it built a future for all of us?

Never stop asking "why?" until the answers form a cohesive story of reality. Everything meshes together in one way or another, all effects have preceding causes.

Understanding the nature of things replaces the fear of the unknown.

Remember, you are made from star dust. Metaphorically, perhaps, but literally too.

We are not separate from the universe, we are the universe. The sun, our planet, and all of life rose from the ashes of What came before.
Consciousness is the cosmos looking upon itself, stars seeing stars.

If you've been following me on here, you'll know I occasionally mention #eunoia. I want to take the time to explain that a little more. Eunoia isn't anything new, it is a body of multi-disciplinary teachings I've assembled that combines known lessons from religion, science, and philosophy.

The United States works because of its diversity, not just diversity of its people, but diversity of economics and governance.

Any "pure" model (I.e., pure capitalism) will fail long-term because a pure system is blind to its own inherent flaws.

We've always been a hybrid of systems.

#UniversalHealthcare is the next step civilization is meant to take. It is a moral imperative, and needs to be treated as seriously as Civil Rights.

What is the purpose of civilization? To provide those within reach of a dignified life.

For our earliest ancestors in the smallest villages, that...

My lovely wife and I spent some time yesterday trying to get aid information for the Red Cross and Yakama Nation Confederated Tribes out to the public to help those affected by the wildfires in Oregon and Washington.
Check out redcross.org and Yakama.com for donation links and info.

Empathy is key to remaining kind in challenging situations. Its a trait that needs to be exercised and expanded whenever possible.

One such exercise is imagining what *you* would have needed to have witnessed to believe the challenging view.

Understanding anger often reveals an underlying fear.

I hope to start sharing soon, but I'm working towards YouTube/podcasts/substack content for #Eunoia.

My goal is to create engaging but fully life practical lectures across philosophy, science, and the humanities.

If you've been following me on here, I've got a lot more planned.

A nation can be thought of as a living entity in which its people act as individual brain cells. We are the neurons that dictate the overall pattern.

Imagine the US as a single mind. It is unwell no matter how you look at it. Self-destructive, impulsive, unfaithful.

It needs help.
