Between Worlds 9 #fiction #somethingsacred https://lnkd.in/dZ_tYsq Young Caela was able to adjust and thrive because she was tuned in to herself, to her own perceptions and power. Her parents, Lev and Letta, they exist within her, but so does all that psychic energy moving through her. To make use and sense of that, she needs integrate experiential impressions, integrating a trusted sense of self. How moderate can temperatures be? Do we have the ranges we do have because of some specificity of size or shape or orbit and distance form our Sun? I’m not picturing Winter on Eden, despite its frigid everpresent reality for me here and now on Earth. Fall I can see, the harvest season. But why not several harvests like in the sunny warm states? Out in the farm areas beyond the city’s structures, they have greenhouses, even hydroponic technologies from the ship. Even if the planet has a variety of climate zones, they may have settled in an area less likely to freeze. Would it be sweltering in the Summer in the city? They would know how to build for minimizing that, design to encourage cooling winds, maybe have air conditioning. They would plant trees according to ecologically thought out plans for shade and water retention and air cleaning. The cultural norms would include a slowness of outdoor perambulations, light-weaved clothing. I see bright colors, even in the enclosed atmosphere of the built-up city. There is an appreciation for art, culture, color, design. It’s not that they don’t enjoy diversity. They are worried, frightened, that they will be left behind, out-classed, unable to successfully excel in competition for what they think to be scarce resources, even such nonmaterial resources as public appreciation and prestige, as well as whatever passes for wealth in their culture. They have closed themselves in to this city. Those of true valor and adventure have gone off exploring. Those who can’t abide fences and rules have been sent to the outer reaches to work out their destinies as farm labor or defense trainees or bucolic eccentrics. People jammed together with their secret inadequacies and fears can build up a psychological squalor. People who present as clean, upright, hard-working citizens can be harboring petty and grand mal demons who rule over their potential better natures and insist on penance without respite, respect or concern. The empaths are not immune from demons, though are to some extent insulated from personal devolution by their mutuality of feelings, the ability to if they so choose never be alone. They will be able to take advantage of distance from the closed in city to develop a culture of their own design. Thesis, antithesis, synthesis. The dialectic of socially evolving mankind prevails. This is not a story about man against nature or man as part of nature, but about human natu ...

The Travel Inclusionist: Building a More Accessible World, One Journey at a Time | Thought Leader | Speaker | Consultant
Trigger Alert: Unmasking the Weaponisation of Whiteness. In today's world, the weaponization of whiteness can lead to life-or-death situations. Let's be clear: While many white individuals advocate for the rights of those without a voice, some intentionally exploit their whiteness to gain the upper hand, often at the expense of people of colour. This grim reality persists in workplaces, perpetuating systemic racism and oppression. At RaCExpert Limited, we confront these harsh truths head-on. We reject sugarcoating, urging white individuals to acknowledge their privilege, amplify marginalized voices, and cease suppressing them. It's time to end performative allyship and demand authentic action, not empty gestures. We stand resolute against the weaponization of whiteness as a tool of oppression. Proximity to power should never entail complicity in injustice. Our call is for accountability, awareness, and transformation. Join us in dismantling oppressive structures, forging racial equity, and creating inclusive cultures. Take action today. #RacialEquity #Allyship #NoMoreSilence ............................................................................

How to fix the NYC Public Transit System. 1. Break subway trains into INDIVIDUAL CARS, so that there is always movement. Continuous flow. And people can get to their stupid fucking jobs on time instead of getting fucked over, daily. 2. When there is congestion at a station, move the cars up onto the street to CONTINUE THE MOVEMENT. 3. I propose MINIATURE BUSES, running every 5 minutes. 4. And wouldn't it be nice to pick up your coffee and breakfast or lunch or dinner ON THE VEHICLE, WHILE YOU ARE STILL MOVING? And why is there no fresh food for sale in stations? Healthy food? Not junk food. You might argue that we'd have a bigger rat problem. But if everything was constantly flowing (as it fucking should be) then cleaning would get did OFTEN, which would reduce critters in the subterranean caverns.

"Science and Sufism meet in the effort to explore the mysteries of the human inner universe." – Albert Einstein This month, our Dervish in Progress master class brought together advanced practitioners like Lea, Regine, Carina, Anna Rita, Ehda, Zoe, Marja, Cristina, Sabine, Harry, Helga, Marta, Detlef, Gabriela, Caroline, and Farzin. Witnessing their deepening mastery and transformation through whirling was an honor and a source of great joy for the entire DIP family. These experiences have transformed us not only physically but also spiritually and emotionally. The growth and dedication shown by each participant during this process are testaments to how special our community is. 🌀 Join the next event in Dervish in Progress and be part of this transformative journey. Remember, the journey of transformation is never complete; it only deepens. TAGS "Matter is energy, abstract is concrete, visible is invisible, part is wave, outer is inner... Even though we know this is the truth, why do we only spend our existence in the visible world? We need to dive into the infinities and unknowns within and around us. There's no need for many words. This truth is very clear and everyone should do it."

An Angry, Grumpy, Motivated, Canadian Historian Born in the Wrong Era 🇨🇦 For introductions, please address me by my pronouns! Did I hurt your feelings with my use of Free Speech? My inherent rights trump your tears!
Good morning to everyone in MY City of Calgary! (Love y’all, even those that hate my means. I do what I do for all of y’all!). Important Reminder: take your weekly allotted three minute shower, don’t flush that morning bathroom break (literally let the 💩pile up as our bureaucrats do so well), and eat your coffee grounds raw with a dirty cup and spoon, all to save some agua, all - of course - at the diktat of the drably-drawn NPC that is un🆒🐣Jyoti. They’ve fixed the main break but created five other minor disasters in the process. Those pipes that “were inspected” have been “reinspected” only to find five more problems for you to live with - your tax dollars hard at work! Cannot wait to see the dog and pony show that is rolled out about “how things were missed!” Back to the Gander that is Gondek: she’s like one of those NPC characters from a Western RPG (☎️“Hey gramps. Ya. that means a game. On my console. Yup. It stands for “role playing game”. Love ya. Bye!”) that only says the same three things: 1) [This issue] is not my fault! [blame others] [demand help from you] [task required for next quest]! 2) I need your help [while providing reason for not doing anything to improve the situation herself] [wailing and crying sounds]! 3) I need some of your money [for invented reason] [demand payment or you cannot move onto your next quest]! Anyhow. Hope you chuckled about that. In other news - I’ve reposted this comment I made last night as I just wanted more of y’all to see it. Be safe out there! Hey BS COC peeps - rick bell states you’re shooting for July 1 for completion and you also clarified that you have indeed engaged private businesses - the majority of which do not have union staff. Impressive and I will tip my hat where it is due. Keep going. Do better. Earn your pay. #yahoo #yippekayay —— Interested in a chat?

So. My beloved City of Calgary is without proper water services for 5 weeks while The Calgary Stampede has already solved their water problem weeks ahead of the main event by utilizing private services and an intelligent, responsive solution. Interesting. The Stampede didn’t even have to threaten/intimidate anyone to achieve their goal! Maybe something to learn there. Anyhow. In a completely unrelated matter - here is a fantastic movie clip from V for Vendetta: https://lnkd.in/gKFhvKXw In this clip are several interesting things to enjoy: • This fantastic and entertaining dystopian movie is set in the “future” where the government used a lab created virus to instill fear in, and seize control of, the population following which they introduced totalitarian control over everything and demanded complete subservience of the people by abusing said power • My favourite classical piece, The 1812 Overture by Tchaikovsky is utilized! I first heard this piece when my band teacher played it for us in Grade 7. He related the story it tells in a memorable way. Give it a listen sometime. • Interesting side note related to this musical piece: Napoleon would have won Waterloo had he not had stomach problems that made him bed ridden the morning of the battle, and - more importantly - had he been able to reconnect with his primary logistician from his earlier campaigns and period of rule (tough to do when the guy had been murdered)… • A mention of Edmond Dantes: anyone know who this is? I’ll Hope and Wait for an answer. (That’s a hint…) • The power of a united people standing in unison against tyranny can be observed • Math: population>military or ~1,300,000 > ~62,000 or A whole ton of pickup trucks > 82 tanks • On another military note, for my team in the Canadian Armed Forces | Forces armées canadiennes (et al): see how quickly the troops stand down and refuse to fire on their citizenry when they are aware the situation is morally wrong. Impressive, really. • Fireworks! The Stampede uses fireworks every night of the event to the enjoyment of many young and old, but unfortunately not to my (and many other’s) dog(s) • The power of commitment to an intelligent and strategic plan to achieve true freedom Have a great night, y’all! Reminder. These two topics (The BS COC matters and the video clip) are completely unrelated and, as always, my posts are an exaggerated, farcical, and satirical, commentary on our state of Canadian (and civic) affairs that are currently underway. I pen for entertainment purposes only, of course. Any congruences are purely coincidental. 😘 —— Interested in a chat?
