2020: The Year of Disremembering and Disassembly

2020 has been a year of contemporaneous contemplation hanged by the bridle of dismay. We have been forced to leap from the cliff, together, Zombie-like, from crisis to crises.

Should Earth Day Be Us Day?

We, the Human Race, are born of a selfish breeding.  We care not about the past or the future.  We only care about our now — and that’s bad for the business of the world.  Today is Earth Day, and I wonder if we should change the name to “Us
