"Unemployment
benefits make people’s lives better and buoy a fragile, but possibly
accelerating recovery. Some Republicans are apparently reluctant to give
Democrats and the economy a shot in the arm right now."

***** pic. Friends, no offense if you block me now. From now on I expect to relentlessly, forcefully, gratingly advocate on 3 things: 1. The only Revolutionary act - refocusing our very lives on the Global Neediest, Our Immediate Family, ALL of Creation, Universal Family. 2. Stopping Ecocide, now, forcing 6%/yr co2 reduction on the table, Fee and Dividend; 1 deg C. Without a planet, no other issue matters. We stop it NOW, or NEVER. 3. 2014 Elections. A. Our best chance at 1&2 above; B. Our last chance to save US Democracy. I don’t play to play; I play to win(expecting to lose). Don’t want that? OK

This is why we are all doomed, if we waste all our time fighting to get presidents or other representatives elected and never take the initiative to find a way to unite people aroung the push for a global shift to non-market economies.

***** From a Dear FB Sister: "Loving, please correct me if I'm wrong, but I sense a change in you that feels ominous. Again, if I am wrong please don't be angry, just CORRECT me. Do I read between the lines that you would "off yourself" to bring attention to the crisis? I have been sitting with this upsetting feeling for 2 days.... detail follows...

Do I read between the lines that you would "off yourself" to bring attention to the crisis? I have been sitting with this upsetting feeling for 2 days.
L: Oh, sweet sister, no, no, no... nothing about 'offing myself,' ...it wouldn't be noticed, nor have any good effect. But no, the first and last it is in my mind is your mention of it here. I'm so glad you were able to voice your concern. No, no, no, no... Nothing of the sort. I wish it could be that easy, but I've known for some time, and more clearly these last few weeks, I'd be doing anything like that... in a graveyard - we are so Dead in this culture. I am NOT to waste what life I have.
KK: Phew! I am very glad to hear it! xo

But
yes, a big change. One that will persist, I suspect. Nothing is true
because Einstein said it. It is true because it is True. Same with
Jesus, or anyone. This pic, right, is a mashup of two things he may have said,
but for the first time so clearly, because of experiences I've had these
recent weeks... hits me as the roseatta stone - Our breath by breath,
dna given purpose, is to lay down our lives for the global neediest.
I've been circling in on this for 15 years, but I've hit a much greater
level of clarity. Lay down our life for the neediest... with every
breath. Schweitzer, Teresa of Calcutta, Malala, Mandela, Gandhi... this
is what they did. And some of us place the likes of these at the
pinnacle - I do. Because we westerners live so opposite of this we've
moved to such a non-adaptive place - we can't see the need to stand,
crazily, for our kid's future. We are too far away from home - lay down
your life for the neediest, with every breath. With little hope for my
efforts for the world, I still see my Path now as doing just that -
laying down my life for the neediest, over the next whatever years I'm
given. I'd LOVE for that to be on hunger strike with 10,000 others here
in DC, but I've been down that road - folks in a graveyard don't hunger
strike. But the disease is we've moved away from home - lay down your
life for the neediest in creation (not bio-fam - we are ALL Family, ALL
connected. Ebola in a non biofam kid can just as easily kill my biofam
kid as another biofam kid can - we are ALL Family). I need to, as best I
can, find, walk, and Live the path - lay down your life, every breath
,for the global neediest. So pitifully little, but it is the root
cure, I'm so sure now, and the only cure that can save us from going
over the cliff. Over coming weeks I'm sure I'll be posting more, but at
my blog. I review posts on FB now but it is just such a substitute of
talk for action... I think I can no longer feed into it. (((((HUGS)))))
and much Loving forever, no matter what

California drought deepens as another year's rains stay away. mercurynews.com
the most IMPORTANT news of the New Year for California. READ THIS!
California drought deepens as another year's rains stay away
mercurynews.com
The
official drought map of California looks as if has been set on fire and
scorched in the center. The Bay Area has pulled out its umbrellas only
few times this year. The usual December reprieve, a storm or two, has
been denied us. The jet stream that pushes rains across our landscape
remains up
***** Jesus: 'Lay down your life for the neediest.' This is where we westerners, we lefties, have gone wrong. (The Right is beyond lost). This is why we westerners, and those emulating our gluttony, er, um, righteousness, are destroying Creation.

***** pic. Who do you know that would gladly pay an awful personal price to stop ecocide by fossil fuels? The ultimate price if need be? Me either. And what price do you think it would take to stop an industry after $50 trillion in reserves? This is the sole reason the Fossil Fuel Industry has won. They know - they can exact a far greater price from lefties than lefties are wiling to pay. (Same for all the other leftie causes, too.) A future for creation has a terrible price, and no one wants to pay it.

Yes, it will cost you dearly, everything that is not essential, not divine, not Joy. Yes, it is opposite of everything you’ve been taught in this sickest of all times. And all else is the path away from Joy, Life, Peace on Earth... the very survival of Creation.

***** pic. You’ll know that you want to stop ecocide, in time, when... detail...
You’ll know that you want to stop ecocide, in time, when, as the Greatest Generation did, you’ve dropped everything, and run and put your very being in way of the greatest emergency ever to confront children, grandchidlren, all of humanity, and all of Creation. Until then, stopping ecocide is just a feel-good hobby for you.
BTW, how many people will have to risk it all to stop an industry bankrolled by $50 trillion in fossil fuel reserves, and sociopathic enough to destroy everything to get it?
All I see, anywhere on the global warming scene, are hobbyists. The 1 in a million exception proves the rule.
