Universities don’t silence, they amplify. They promote and share knowledge and research and community. The time for peaceful protest is now. This situation is global and humanity has to be heard and the response of the powerful must reflect the spirit of the moment. No one in their right mind wants more war for profit, […]

We Are World Central Kitchen
The fact that a convoy of World Central Kitchen workers – a flagless, borderless non-profit with a focused mission to help feed humans in moments of crisis – was stomped out of existence, that peace seeking was snuffed so cavalierly, cannot be ignored. All they do is help, boots on the ground, everyone everywhere, without […]
For Your Consideration: Peace
Being destructive isn’t brave. Peace may not be as lucrative, but it cannot be ignored – no matter what today’s Academy Awards ceremony might suggest. There is more money in crisis, but we neither have to participate in the persistent lunacy of the game of war nor tolerate its most involved players (after all, it […]
What Leading with Anger Looks Like
What is happening in Gaza is stunning. And yet, I am not stunned. I’m calloused by the world’s self-immolation. There will be no cease of fire at this time. There’s too much anger and perceived strategic advantages that unimaginably outweigh the lives overlooked and ended. But it must be said that this is what leading […]
San Francisco, Today
Natural disasters, however Man-fueled, cannot be prevented – they can only be managed…survived. But Man-made disasters like wars, that we can do without (if we really wanna). So help. Help the people of Acapulco, the people on your streets, the people we all know need our help the most. Fuck it, help yourself by not […]
Killers Who Are Partying
What is happening right now is not normal. We were not designed to be in a state of war, of constant alert. A good thing that we are capable of defense, but it isn’t necessary or healthy to be in a consistent state of alarm, or outrage, of pain. And yet, that’s what’s been going […]
San Francisco, 7.12.23
Meanwhile, some people still out there raging war, trying to strip others of their unalienable rights, raping and pillaging the planet – and they’re “in charge”? In what reality do they live that their priorities are so whack. We are so clearly and painfully aware of how bad humanity can be, I’m so curious of […]
#SanFrancisco, 5.18.23
You know what is the problem with #SanFrancisco (anywhere with a fucked situation, really): People don’t listen and don’t make the meaningful effort to meet other people where they are. Fucking doctors don’t listen. So-called allies don’t listen. Even strangers that want something from you don’t listen. And then, they all get all bent outta […]
It’s So Perverse, That’s Why It Works
First they let your kids die. In school, at church, at the club, at the movies – everywhere. Then, they don’t do anything about it, and they get in the way of everyone that tries to make it better. They let you simmer in it, get angry. Then, angrier. At your angriest, you see the […]
Art and the City
I enjoy museums. I love museums in the summer New York City. Where else to be: Refreshing art and AC? I’d subscribe, but I live in foggy San Francisco. Time with the culture is time well spent. All of the ways. Always. It’s chill.
