i'm out of sorts as they say a lot these days of endless war and the  privatization of the park, but i'm glad for my uniquely sentient window in time.

dominion.

 we have only a little time to please the living. but all eternity to please the dead.

 i call the architecture of fascists fascist architecture. i'm no expert. ok maybe not classical fascist, but i can see obama's face on it, like obey, but with a sardonic grin, and yes, we can! surrounding his smug mug. 

 while the war criminals were building their palaces with collateral murder money, julian assange was locked in a solitary cell. 

may the highest and lowest meet in me.

 

i may have been drifting, william's voice is so soporific, 

when i thought i heard something like water 

meaning emotion, add emotional water, not too much, 

and don't get captured, use it. 

be the observer. be both practical and mystical, simultaneously. 

feel your soul. feel the inescapable unity. 

do what you're gifted to do. it's a gift. ask, what's my gift. 

violet is the color, look for it. drink it with your eyes. 

i remember violet starfish on a salish island, so lovely, the color goes  through me like water. i felt it there on the little island, 

the earth is a being, tidal, cosmic. 

 

when exposing a crime is treated as committing a crime 

you are being ruled by criminals. 

the war criminals are still in power.

julian assange is free.

 zobbie and lulu. i was writing about zombies but she a zobbie which is not the same thing at all. so i tried a reset with dogs, lulu peed two beds. i tried the library, they sent me the wrong edition of stoner. i tried my first swim, i got a flat tire. now i'll try william meader. i need help. 

 dang it. lu peed the bed. we were so thrilled the fountain was fixed and i was talking to zobbie's humans, and she was so hot and thirsty. my bad, if she drinks i gotta lock her in the kitch.

 i saw when olive trees weep. i'm going to walk lulu and benny, go by the library, and jump in the lake at pebble beach. bear, for free palestine.

 it's not easy to reset, but i'll try, i get trapped in the world in my mind, i'm gonna try to make some higher vibrations.

 no you're right, it's not as bad as it looks, it's worse.

 i'm getting sick of it. people say maybe it's not as bad as it looks. isn't that always the story. isn't that the story of the forsaken land.

 this was two years ago, i was doing boycott israel, free palestine, black lives matter posts, and the kids were doing art for the people murdered by police in the u.s. yesterday i saw a flag in the harbor and thought for a minute it was a palestinian flag until i got closer and saw it was an african american flag. they're similar, and connected in my mind. i see the palestinian flag as the flag of resistance and freedom from oppressive state, the terror state. 

 they steal the land. they occupy the land by lawfare or force. they destroy the land.

 settler colonialism was accepted as the norm.

 if zombies falsely believe they are conscious, how can we be sure we are not zombies? we may believe we are experiencing conscious mental states when in fact we merely hold a false belief. lynch thinks denying the possibility of zombies is more reasonable than questioning our own consciousness.

 maybe you are using a desire you can't fulfill to distract you from truly engaging the blessings you already have. 

 if zombies act and look identical to humans, what's the difference?

 we can conceive of a world physically indistinguishable from our world but in which there is no consciousness.  

 i know there are a host of stupid zombie movies, but what about real life? zombies have been around since way before the movies. i read about philosophical zombies, the notion that they are the same as normal humans. when the president freezes it's like a glitch in the matrix when we can observe the zombie halt. anyway something is happening with human consciousness, and we want to find an explanation, for the way the human society trends, the ghoulish human developments that encroach on all of us.

 Don't listen to Democrats. What we're witnessing is not "Netanyahu's war." It's an increasingly genocidal society, armed and enabled by the US government, enacting the genocidal ideology upon which Israel was founded. Slaughtering Arabs and Palestinians is one of the few things that Israel's various political factions can be reliably expected to unite around.

 the gaslight empire makes me so mad, but i'm not crazy, i'm sane!

for ivy and shorty. 

 

 mr. livengood and dr. hipp.

 it just feel like it's all a rigged game. like ordinary people have no control over what happens in this world.

 i think i'm becoming a bit of a recluse. all i want to do is go to the library and the graveyard and walk the dogs. 

 i see things with my emotions these days.

 how they can drain the wetland? how can they stop the underground stream? they add dirt, sand, gravel, and a water pump and hose, and still 

the water rises.

 the oligarchs can take land, displace wildlife and human life, but 

they can't force the water to emigrate.

the waterpark of the oligarch.
