Our house is on fire. Join the resistance: Do no harm/take no shit. My idiosyncratic and confluent bricolage of progressive politics, the collaborative commons, next generation cognitive neuroscience, American pragmatism, de/reconstruction, dynamic systems, embodied realism, postmetaphysics, psychodynamics, aesthetics. It ain't much but it's not nothing.

Sanders on the Green Party
From this article, showing Sanders' practicality in the face of what we've got instead of what we should have. We can still work for the latter, a long-term project, while facing the realities of the present.
“I don't know the leadership of the Green Party, but I respect what they're trying to do. They're focusing on very, very important issues. But I think right now —
what is it, three, four months before an election — you're gonna end up
having a choice. Either Hillary Clinton is going to become president,
or Donald Trump. If we were in Europe right now, in Germany or elsewhere, the
idea of coalition politics of different parties coming together — you've
got a left party, you've got a center-left party, coming together
against the center-right party. That's not unusual. We don't have that. We have and have had [two parties] for a very long
period of time — and I know a little bit about this, as the longest
serving independent member of Congress.”
