Seconds after the Giants' triumph ...

There's merriment in the 'hood tonight.

What's this about?

UPDATE, December 2011: If posts become scant around here, it's because I'm working hard on the SAFE California campaign to end death sentences in our state. Californians: You can too!

My musings on current events, current projects, current anxieties and current delights.

I started this under the Bush regime when any grain of sand thrown into the gears of the over-reaching imperial state seemed worthwhile.

I have worked to elect more and better Democrats -- and to hammer the shit out of them once we get them in office so they do the things their constituents want and need. It's a big job.

It's mighty uncomfortable, getting by in a declining empire where elites maintain their power by massaging our mean streaks and mobilizing our resentments. This country and this "civilization" may be on their way out, but there's nothing else to do except try to make them as humane as possible along the way. That and to celebrate the extraordinary love that sometimes accompanies our species' bumbling way.

And the end hasn't come til it comes, ever.

Visitors will find a lot of commentary on books I'm reading here. I am very intentionally reading more offline these days because when it feels hard to find direction, it's time to learn something new.

I also hold forth regularly in two other venues:
WarTimes/Tiempo de Guerras
-- on issues of war, peace, and antiwar activism and
Time Goes By: What Its Really Like to Get Older
-- on LGBT aging issues.
