My two greatest inspirations in my search for personal meaning and directional indications for humanity's transition are Metamodernism and Analytic Idealism (@BernadoKastrup).
Frustratingly, I've not been able to find enthusiasts within both spheres to discuss their relationship. Are you one?

Inspiring and hope-sustaining.
Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.
This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.
Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.
And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

Agree!
3 political parties are now polling at about a quarter of the vote – Reform, Labour, and the Conservatives.
First Past the Post means that any one of them could win the next election, even if more than two in three of us don't want them!
We need fair votes!

Bioregionalism seems like a no-brainer as part of Humanity's Transition.
Not the whole story, obviously, but a definite contour of the transformational phase of the transition.

Blue Sky is growing FAST!
Earlier today, we hit 29 Million #Sklyers here on #Bsky
Unless the rate drops a lot, we should be at 30 million before the end of the month.
There was a big increase in the rate of signups immediately after the inauguration, which has since decreased a bit.

The only way I can make sense of this is that Spokesperson Trump is explaining the policies of President Musk. Not so much national security as 'I need the minerals for my business" Musk-security.
That makes it perfectly reasonable.

Trump just suggested that he may declare war on Denmark to take Greenland.

Maybe time to ditch Facebook and Instagram. At the very least don't take anything on there as information unless you can verify the source and its trustworthiness. Avoid paying any money to Meta and remember that even by going on them you support thier ad revenue.
