Thank you Pogo for spreading the message of love, with the voice of a sad, sad, broken, person.

I don’t Want to Die in America

Wed, 28 Mar 2018 22:52:18 +0000

These magnficant American lands are filled with beautiful people, living in a poisoned culture which is killing both.

That’s why I became so anxious.

That’s why I sunk into depression.

That’s why I stopped caring about anything, anyone.

That’s why I left New York.

That’s why I made jobs in Perth.

That’s why I will go home.

That’s where I’ll die, as we all do.

Be Prepared (2018-03)

Sat, 24 Mar 2018 11:59:11 +0000

“The Collapse” sounds like a thing that happens in front of your eyes right? It sounds like an event, a catastrophe that dominates everybody’s attention, like an explosion, or a market crash, or a war.

No, it’s not that simple, nothing in this interconnected hypernormalised world will ever be simple. Collapse of our civilization, of this dominant culture, is a continuing and long process, it has no clear beginning and it’s end will only be defined in the history books.

Pain Essay

Tue, 20 Mar 2018 14:08:26 -0600

Part of the problem is that death is not a part of our daily lives, we have a very curious escapist attitude about death and have managed to distance it through a bizarre form of institutionalization.

What is required is a change of heart, in order to change our hearts we need to see things differently, neither romanticizing or denying death is honest or useful, it’s more useful to be accepting of death as part of the grit of daily life.

Sunday Service - A Seat at the Table

Sun, 18 Mar 2018 14:45:15 -0400

You don’t really seem like a Church person Dirk

Anyone I’ve met.

Some who read my post “Do Justice, Love Kindness, Walk Humbly” will recognize that is not my quote, in fact I heard it at service that day and was inspired to come out to the same park I am in now to write about it.

Again this Sunday, after attending the Fort Collins Mennonite Fellowship I am feeling inspired to write about service and duty, things that have meant a lot to me my entire life (as a scout) , and which I feel a longing for when I am not doing regularly.

Rick and Morty & Run The Jewels

A new collaboration dropped between Rick and Morty & Run The Jewels, Oh Mama wasn’t on my radar until this film clip, wonder if I’d ever get my own mother to watch this?

Grateful For These New Changes

Sat, 17 Mar 2018 10:21:45 +0000

I’m very grateful for the new things that have come into my life over the last few weeks, today a lot of that came together and resulted in the latest version of my website, built on my latest computer, using the new avatar created by the fantastic Rationality Rules .

I also added a new category today, survive which gives me a place to put content that inspires us to drive forward with our efforts to create change in our world.

Nobody Can Do This Alone

Sat, 17 Mar 2018 04:21:45 +0000

For me the biggest relief over these years is learning that I’m not solely responsible for saving our species from extinction.

The hardest thing to come to terms with is that most of the species is ignorant of the dangers we face, or responsible in their own small way for pushing us closer to the edge.

Alone you cannot save us from the impact climate change will have on our ability to produce enough food for our survival.

We Will Be Destroyed, If We Remain Divided

Wed, 14 Mar 2018 15:52:46 -0600

Under the oppression of tyranny we learn helplessness.

Under constant division we stand alone.

Under threat of violence we do not fight for freedom.

Together we can get our fair share.

Together we can serve our purpose.

Together we can change the future.

Stand Together & Together We Stand.

Next Year Perth, Following Year Farm

Goodbye America

It’s no secret I have no desire to return to the United States in 2 days, however as I reflect on the year I see 365 days of achieving the goals I set for myself, and the actions needed to get myself closer to where I’m going.

Having a direction is reassuring, seeing yourself achieve progress is motivating!

I haven’t found my “direction” to be something that I talk about that much though, as mostly it’s met with disregard, the New York Executive wants to become a Farmer, sure, let’s see that happen.

2017 Ben Howard Anthem

Sat, 30 Dec 2017 00:00:00 +0000

2017 hasn’t been a good year, let’s face it, 2018 won’t be better.

After suffering internally for decades, seeking help, working hard, and greiving immensely, I’m still here.

I’m still here as a lot of other people in my life come to understand the position that we’re in as a species, to realize the challenges that threaten our survival.

This year Ben Howard’s music has helped me incredibly, in this post I wanted to present three songs from his album Every Kingdom (CD , Vinyl ).
