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.

Post-election syndromes
In Reich's FB post he pinpoints 4 post-election syndromes so that we can recognize and overcome them. They are 1) denial that Twamp will be that bad, that it will just be another 'normal' Republican; 2) emotional numbness and one just doesn't want to hear anymore about it; 3) cynicism that the system is so broken that fuck it, just give up on it altogether; 4) helplessness and powerlessness. We need to fight these syndromes, for our country needs us more than ever if we are going to recover our democracy.
