Political and economic systems collapse. It's inevitable. It may be imminent. We can deny it, resist it, or embrace it. To make the best of it, we need to start adapting now.
Pinned
Our political and economic institutions are collapsing.

It does not need to be a disaster.

I'm here to gather and share ideas on how to navigate this change.

In honor of Dorothy Day's 128th birthday, a piece from 1976 depicts a personal encounter with her. "This passionate disturber of the peace, this agitator for justice, wants, as another said, not to denounce as much as to announce."

Encountering Dorothy Day
From her earliest years, Dorothy Day has believed that the place for people to be is on the barricades. She has been there with them.

A big chunk of American #Christianity has become a political #cult. God please help those who bring the people back to you and away from false prophets.

Like you I am celebrating Tuesday's victories. However, my job is not to sugarcoat things and tell you it's all fixed. It is to warning about what to expect next and fight back.

That is why I wrote this and why I hope you read and share. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/what...

“Good person” and “bad person” are category errors.

This isn’t just philosophical onanism – it matters. If your ethical framework assigns binary labels to people, then it cannot handle the actual complexity of real-world behavior.

Bad models yield bad predictions.

Corrupt scumbag murderer Greg Abbott is showing more concern over New York City finally electing a good person to be their Mayor than he ever did for everyone who was murdered in Uvalde, Texas. Evil asshole.

An incomplete list of cities where housing abundance was a major campaign issue & pro-housing candidates held or expanded majorities:
- Bozeman, MT
- Cambridge, MA
- Durham, NC
- Kalispell, MT
- Littleton, CO
- Manchester, NH
- Missoula, MT
- Salt Lake City, UT
- Seattle, WA
- Wilmington, NC

💪
We'll post a list sometime soon but in addition to all the D vs. R stories tonight, in basically every nonpartisan election in the country today, the more pro-housing candidate won.

It is a selective denial of public service. It is a sadistic, calculated campaign of starvation and collective punishment. It is sabotage of the public good.

Calling it a ‘government shutdown’ when the most harmful elements of government are overfunded & unleashed gives license to the perpetrators.

Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

Australia has so much solar that it's offering everyone free electricity
Australia's extensive solar power penetration makes so much energy that the government wants to offer free electricity at peak hours.

The only way fascist capitalists will relinquish power peacefully to centrist capitalists is if they believe that alternative is a revolution that will destroy capitalism.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106.

12 days of work in 106 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

This is located in the Lakeview neighborhood of Chicago, close to Fullerton and Sheffield. It's a densely populated area near DePaul University. I'm pleased to see the community standing up against these despicable individuals.

A world where barroom Nazis can coexist with others is a world where regular folk are totally powerless, and therefore harmless. Nazi symbols are threatening, which is why people wearing them get driven away.

A Christianity that causes the hungry to go without food, the sick to go without healthcare, the stranger to be mistreated, and God’s creation to be ravaged, all while the greedy and cruel satisfy their every desire, is a Christianity that can no longer claim to follow Christ.

One thing is certain about the fate of the Louvre jewels: some rich person will buy them, and the thieves themselves will become very rich. Our kids will be working for theirs. This is how it has always been.
