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.

Senators write to the President on the TPP
Senators write to the President on the TPP. Their letter is in this
article (at the end). Of foremost concern is the clause on Investor
State Dispute Settlement (ISDS), which gives corporations the power to
sue governments if the latter have laws interfering with their profits
AND it's adjudicated by their corporate peers. Yes, that includes health
and safety laws. So the Senators, including Sanders and Warren, want
that provision struck from the TPP. The Senators had other complaints
with the TPP, also listed in their letter.
