“End fossil fuel, draw the line Before we build one more pipeline End fracking now, let's save the water And build a life for our sons and daughters Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth? Who's gonna say that she's had enough? Who's gonna take on the big machine? Who's gonna stand up and save the Earth? This all starts with you and me”

A Dystopian Novelist Predicted Trump's Campaign Slogan In The '90s

Octavia Butler wrote about a zealot who promised to “Make America great again.” Sound familiar?

It's incredible how accurately Butler described this time of the century. She nailed it down to Trump's slogan in 1998! Later in “Parable of the Talents” she states, 

“Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought.

To be led by a coward is to be controlled by all that the coward fears.

To be led by a fool is to be led by the opportunists who control the fool.

To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.

To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.

To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.”

“How much of this nonsense does he believe, I wonder, and how much does he say just because he knows the value of dividing in order to conquer and to rule? Well,...”

Back to the Land Movement 2.0

hello stange and sincere internet folks,

Have you ever thought about moving back to the Land? Have the words of Aldo Leopold touched your being? Not sure who that is, but you have a deep connection with nature, and you wish to explore that future? In this time of inequality, lies, injustice, and chaos, with Climate Change emerging we must come together. Leave behind and preassumptions of culture, religion, politics.

Want to help build community, sustainable living, and radical reform? You want to, but maybe it seems like too much of a burden, not a good fit for you or you are just comfortable? I’ve thought these thoughts many times. I see destruction, and enough is never being done! It is time for religion 3.0, a faith based on what we see. We need faith in this capitalistic society. We need faith to protect us from the storm that is coming our way. We must act in the needs of the voiceless, the grass, the trees, the birds, the water, the hurt of human-kinds. We want freedom, from want. We want ecological stability, but we want more than that we want environmental harmony. Whatever background you come from you are welcomed and wanted.  

WHY NOT MAKE THIS A REALITY? Why keep waiting... Get involved HERE

Write to me. Tell me what you want me to know. Get involved if you please.

The all-encompassing words of Octavia Butler: 

                 “God is Change.

Shape God.

     The Destiny of Earthseed is to take root among the stars.”

I tend to shy away from the internet but I cant see a better purpose for it than this, building community and shaping change.  I hope it will be a way to connect with one another. If you have pals who are not on tumblr, spread the word! I will collect and organize data and get back to you at a point where I have gathered enough. Thank you. check out the blog for more info.
