Living like monks won't "save the planet"
Submitted by Cassiodorus on Mon, 04/26/2021 - 11:33amOne of the charms of the Internet reading of late last week was Harrison Stetler's article in Jacobin, titled "Changing Our Individual Behavior Isn’t Going to Save the Planet." Now, I do not keep track of French politics.

Successful Physicians Fight for Recomendations
Submitted by Lookout on Mon, 04/26/2021 - 7:42amThese interviews are buried in the comments of yesterday's weekly watch. I'm posting them separately in hope it will reach more eyes and ears. To my mind they provide an understanding of the dysfunction of our for profit ill health system, and reinforce the theme of yesterday's essay.

Life and Death
Today is my Mom's 89th birthday. Her senior center wisely doesn't allow visitors. So I've rented a nearby picnic pavilion at a city park.

So new life and old life in the turning of the cycle...it is the way. Today I want to look at our ill health system and revisit our response to COVID, the disease that has turned society on its ear.
