The End of Shock and Awe.
Suited-up pockets of gas flatulate from hired stages.
Sparks, whistles, and fury, meant to bind attention.
Once I believed the spectacle.
Now I only see tiny actors waving shadow puppets on the wall.
We look away.
They vanish.

Kimmel wasn’t fired for his remarks on Kirk—he was fired for using his platform to expose and critique our government. Enough! We especially need large corporations, with the money and influence they have, to fight back. sign.moveon.org/petitions/ki...
Reinstate Jimmy Kimmel and stop caving to authoritarian censorship!

The Final Time I Spoke Without Need.
They asked what I believe.
I opened my mouth.
Nothing.
Not silence. Just mindful indifference.
Belief is another tether.
A weight to carry.
To defend.
To explain.
I had none left.
So I said nothing.
And walked on.

Up until his death, Ozzy Osbourne’s goal was to ascend a stage one last time and thrill his fans.
When the subject of retirement came up in a 2020 Rolling Stone interview, Osbourne huffed. “Retire from what?” he said. “It’s not a job...." 🖤

The Last Debt I Paid.
Not with money or labor.
But rather
with attention
with belief
with agreement
with participation.
Then I realized
The only thing I really owed
was the idea
that I owed anything at all.
I let that go.
And no one came to collect.

The Day the Clock Stopped Counting Me.
At some point
I forgot to check.
No alarm. No countdown.
No schedule holding me back.
I simply moved without it,
and it moved on without me.
Light shifted. Birds passed.
No one even noticed I was out of time.

Liberty, When She Appeared
She said nothing.
Asked nothing.
She moved like wind over water;
no trace, no demands.
She did not look back.
She did not wait.
I followed without following.
Moved without needing a movement.
And into that stillness
I leapt.

The Moment the World Stopped Looking
I walked through the checkpoint.
No ID. No pause.
No one stopped me.
I was not invisible. Just a thing outside the frame.
What the system does not recognize it simply lets pass.
And in that gap
I found my muse, Liberty.

Ok Boomers. Your parents stormed beaches to stop fascism. You storm capitol buildings, Home Depot parking lots, and public schools to bring it back with new branding and retirement plans for billionaires. Bravo on the plot twist!

Reflections of an Untethered Mind:
The Last Time I Wanted Something.
I remember the shape of it. The pull. The trickery.
“Want” makes you feel small. Dense. Folds you inward.
I have since passed the place where they sell hunger.
It never touched me again.

The Day I Became Absence.
I turned off my phone. Not for rest. Not for ritual.
I simply did not need it.
The system waited for my return.
But I have no shore. No signal. No self to anchor.
I am now only silence.

They shouted. I felt nothing.
No defense. No answer.
The storm passed through me.
They looked confused. Then afraid.
A person who does not move is not a person to them at all.

Congratulations to Bill Owens and Scott Pelley of CBS for standing up for the Constitution and the First Amendment.
Trump, and his lawsuits against CBS and other media, must be strongly resisted. Paramount (which owns CBS) must not give in to Trump’s authoritarianism.

Scott Pelley addressed the resignation of top producer Bill Owens, who had cited editorial interference by CBS’s parent company, Paramount.
“None of our stories has been blocked, but Bill felt he lost the independence that honest journalism requires,” Pelley said.

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.
