The picture above is of me at 47 in Japan, in the nanosecond of a major turning point. Nearly cost me my life, but I certainly learned a lot....An investigative reporter (with a Pulitzer'nomination, rare for an independent), a medical writer (founded a cooperative medical writing company with clients on three continents), and teacher (taught in high school and college and was an early coordinator in the un-schooling movement).on this channel under my own name, I'm writing an unauthorized history of Minds.
As @authorpendragon, I've been mindsblogging the news since 2016 and blogpost a bit.
Politically, I've been an activist since the early 1960s, because "inactive citizen" is an oxymoron. With courageous, adventurous children grown and out changing the world, having just helped raise a grandson, my husband aka best friend and I founded a small community in an improbable oasis that we're working to save in the midst of a metro area. Here the guy I love creates anything that I can imagine, and I grow things and write...
Channel Policy: Doxxers and spammers -- including thread hijackers endlessly bleating about unrelated pet projects or hatreds -- are at minimum boring. Bug out. All others: thank you for being here. Documented disagreement is terrific. So are discoveries. So is laughter....

Morality is doing what is right regardless of what you are told. Obedience is doing what is told regardless of what is right.
— H.L. Mencken, 1880-1956, American columnist & cultural critic

It's Not that we can't FEED the POOR, we just can't SATISFY the RICH. It is now highly feasible to take care of everybody on Earth at a higher standard of living than any of us have. Selfishness is unnecessary. War is OBSOLETE. We just have to convert tech from WEAPONRY to LIVINGRY - Buckminster Fuller
"There is Class WAR alright, but it's we the RICH making it (dividing you idiots against each other) and Winning it" - Warren Buffett , Billionaire
FASCISM should rightly be called Corporatism as it is the merger between the corporation and the state" - Benito Mussolini
'That in essence is FASCISM: Ownership of GOV'T by an individual, by a group, or any controlling PRIVATE POWER (Billionaires OWN #Congress via legal bribery called #CampaignFinance) - Franklin D Roosevelt

Strive to act with compassion and empathy toward all creatures in accordance with reason.
The struggle for justice is an ongoing and necessary pursuit that should prevail over laws and institutions.
One’s body is inviolable, subject to one’s own will alone.
The freedoms of others should be respected, including the freedom to offend. To willfully and unjustly encroach upon the freedoms of another is to forgo your own.
Beliefs should conform to our best scientific understanding of the world. We should take care never to distort scientific facts to fit our beliefs.
People are fallible. If we make a mistake, we should do our best to rectify it and resolve any harm that may have been caused.
Every tenet is a guiding principle designed to inspire nobility in action and thought.
The spirit of compassion, wisdom, and justice should always prevail over the written or spoken word.

The victim mindset dilutes the human potential. By not accepting personal responsibility for our circumstances, we greatly reduce our power to change them.” —Steve Maraboli

Trying to be philosophically consistent and self aware, liberty minded individual making snarky and/or insightful comments (hopefully). On occasion I will try to one up conspiracy theory types for shits, giggles and the unlikely chance they may gain some insight into how batshit crazy they really are.
I also take photos of stuff. I intend my posts here show my evolution and improvement as a photographer and (hopefully) a trend slowly moving towards technical mastery and artistic expression.
If I have one piece of advice it's "stop humoring racists/identiterians". They are objectively bad people, and you should stop assuming they're just ignorant or mistaken. They're adults, treat them like it.
