This prof predicted the US Iran war & Surprise prediction: US Losing
Professor Jiang's takes on the current crisis has been a breakthrough in understanding for me. for me. \ Someone said in comments on this video that they are nervous because tis is their first world war. I said : You have actually been in the war and just didn't see. Capitalists are waging class war around the world. They don't even haven any allegiance to the US, though most of the wars start here. The goal is short term wealth concentration without regard for human life o

Brother from Another Mother
Pep Guardiola has condemned conflicts around the world including the genocide in Palestine, war in Ukraine and civil war in Sudan in a heartfelt statement. He asked how anyone could defend the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti by ICE in Minnesota and said humanity is “better than ever in terms of possibilities … but it’s still right not we kill each other - for what?” The Manchester City manager made the comments at a press conference ahead of the second leg of the Carab

Good Nature Green Reader
Hi from Seattle Cascadia.welcome to Good Nature Publishing. I've found these books to be bread crumbs on the path to an ecology of mind, an evolving gladness centered in the faith of us mortals to see we are interconnected, we belong to each other. And that humans are essentially constructive and trustworthy. Meditation has done a lot to help me redirect suffering thoughts of helplessness and overwhelm in this moment. Limiting the attention I give to the machine and its e

After We Abolish ICE, what's next? Abolish billionaires and poverty
M. Gessen via New York Times After the past three weeks of brutality in Minneapolis, it should no longer be possible to say that the Trump administration seeks merely to govern this nation. It seeks to reduce us all to a state of constant fear — a fear of violence from which some people may at a given moment be spared, but from which no one will ever be truly safe. That is our new national reality. State terror has arrived. Please look at this list with me. Since early Januar

Good Questions to Create Friends
I didn't write the following-- looks like AI, but I think it does a good job of getting us thinking about two things in the end: Here are 10 questions that work like social superglue. Each comes with a quick breakdown of why it works, and how to use it. “What’s something most people misunderstand about you?” Why it works: People LOVE feeling seen and understood. This question gives power. It invites someone to gently correct the story others assume about them. Science behi

Celebrating Martin's Birthday by Marching Against Fascists! Tax wealth not work
Fellow traveler, I grew up in the civil rights and anti war movement. These movements have helped me see that the struggle for poor people, the struggle for Black, Brown, citizen and immigrant is our struggle. And to hold these truths to be self evident here in America the beautiful, that all men and women are created equal is a key teaching of nonviolence by Martin Luther King Jr. What Coretta Scott King says here about violence is written in the kindest way for us all to

Want To Learn About Trees, Birds & Bees? First decolonize your heart and mind
Plant seeds of peace with meditation. Think for yourself and figure out what works for you to train your mind to be a beacon for peace, a radio signal for coherence. We humans are essentially constructive and trustworthy. The suffering that is created in this world is created by ignorance. So when you order the NW Conifers or wildflowers posters, make sure you link it to learning more about our fellow plants and animals. Instead of asking what's in it for me, ask "Is a ri

Create a Wonderful Life
I'm sharing this passage from William Henry Channing . since his words best reflect my own way of seeing: To live content with small means, to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, to study hard, think quietly, talk gently, act frankly; to listen to stars and birds, to babes and sages, with open heart; to bear all cheerfully, do all bravely, await occasions, hurry never; in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden a

Where are the Democrats?
The convicted felon needs to be arrested for Renee Good's execution by one of his illegal street gang members. And just why is it the sheriff can go after Timothy Busfield for child abuse while we have Donald Trump accused of child rape running America the beautiful like a gangster does? Believe the women. who courageously stood up against the elites and Epstein who Trump is trying to distract us from. Time for a team of Blue state Attorney Generals to make arrest warrants f

Love these poems
Tara Shepersky has a great little business and way of seeing I hope you get a chance to visit Tara's site. She's an antidote to despair, and has a lot of creative flowering going on in process with other people and plants and animals. This is from Tara's Three Healing Friends story: About a month ago, I had one of those days where everything feels hard. Without belaboring the intensity — perhaps you already know what I mean — I will say that the feeling is like a long and
