Women cannot preempt sexual assault. Another dangerously dishonest particle. Link
Will there ever be honest discussion of this issue? Will there ever be an honest attempt to improve things? Almost certainly not. How dishonest to frame this as an all-or-nothing thing. Nothing it's all or nothing. It's all a matter of probability. Women make up half the population on this planet. To suggest that their behavior has no impact on men is Criminal. It is causing rape.

If a water skier lets go the tow rope they almost immediately sink. The most dire needs of creation is my tow rope. Nothing less can keep me from drowning.

To a friend. I feel the same way about myself, the tiniest tiniest Speck of nothing. But I'm unwilling to not do with that Speck of nothing everything I possibly can to create a better world.

Full effort is full success. Gandhi. Absolutely totally completely true. Full effort is the only thing we can control. And few of us try although most of us convince ourselves we have.

Thank you for coming to Berkeley. We needed to see you. Mostly nondescript kind white men said outside the little service station in this crowded Berkeley California. To my surprise, and maybe to my discredit, Berkeley seems to be the second most Humane town that I have encountered in this last 11 thousand miles. Grants Pass being the most human but I think I've seen. I have no idea why.

I'm just so exhausted. This Mission has really pushed me to the Limit. I have no Reserves.

Somehow the journey gets harder. I'm not complaining. I'm blessed to have this Mission. But it gets harder. The degree of difficulty does not go down, it just keeps going up. Land is so.....
Somehow the journey gets harder. I'm not complaining. I'm blessed to have this Mission. But it gets harder. The degree of difficulty does not go down, it just keeps going up. Land is so..... scarce here that stores like Starbucks close up there wall sockets. gas stations close up their wall sockets. fast food places close up their wall sockets. And in these days that have shorter sun and so many Hills it is not possible to go all day on just What the sun provide some of these days. and with Berkeley being the possible exception, the rest stops and Walmart's where it was legal to stay for the night are no more. and with all this goes I'm much more acutely awareness that we don't care about people in this Society, we care about their money, and if they don't have it, and they don't spend it, they are unwelcome. and I'm physically tired. I am emotionally and spiritually tired. the time I would be devoting to my emotional health and connection to creation has gone by the wayside largely To the moment by moment demands of this mission. Again, no complaints. Just a status update. although no one in my network other than one surfaced any housing for me in this part of the country, through my efforts I have uncovered several down in Silicon Valley that if they hold will provide a landing place and a base of operations for Three or four days of this vehicle being legally visible. as I am stretched to the breaking point I suspect that those in proximity to me have felt that stress and largely Departed. Those who have not, your friendship is a great blessing.

It would be an honor to have you stay at my home, the individual, the cyclist, in Silicon Valley wrote to me tonight. I have been exploring every Avenue I can, especially a cycling Support Network, to try and secure legal places for the bicycle at night beginning mid next week. He has a business trip that may prevent but he clearly genuinely wants to help support this mission. This, one of maybe 30 contacts. Two others have shown some interest. I suspect the combination of scarcity of parking and political cowardice are the reasons. It's quite a concern that I may well wind up in the clutches of the police without that being my goal.

If the heart does not rage at Injustice, it is not loving. But the reverse is not necessarily true. Life is teaching me this. Rage has risen within me, with my permission, much in recent weeks as some of you have noticed me Express. And to some degree it has displaced my loving. And one problem with that, maybe the biggest problem with that, but one problem with that is, Joy comes from loving, not raging. With this awareness I hope to bring things back into a better balance.

The big, very old locomotive engine was pulling just to Freight cars in this 80 mile long desolate stretch alongside California Interstate 5 north of Sacramento. Noticing it at the last moment chugging so slowly in the opposite direction to me on the opposite side of this Tulane Highway I waved my hand. The Horn of the train honked immediately. We both enjoyed that I'm sure.

I infinitely choose the deep sadness of being alive in this hellish world we have created, instead of the alternative, a happy existence, living death, of blissful ignorance and denial. Our culture exists in tirely on making the opposite choice of mine.

The Destroyer, savior, of my life. Watch this, or f*** you. Unfriend me. Or watch this. This is the Seminal, definitive, authoritative statement of where the f*** we are. Watch it or go to hell.

Unfriending probably 10 per day, sad, angry, resentful. But mostly simply acknowledging that the word friend means something, and a friend not in deed is no friend.

Important! Video archive of solar bicycle car Harvester micro RV, on Vimeo, despite my friends...... .
Finally, weeks after imploring my friends to help, with no help forthcoming, the archival footage of this miraculous, strategically important, e-trike micro solar Harvester RV is up on the web. https://vimeo.com/237673278
How much am I a wimp? Very little, I think, but very much, possibly. I have quite the cycle recently of Agony of despair, and my cup runneth over. Absolutely, I have no complaints. LOL.

Tired. The stress of the travel down through the Rockies, the frightening Siskiyou Pass, the frightening Travels afterwards, have taken their toll. This old system is tired. The solar bike car Harvester micro RV is performing beautifully. It has really been completed this last month with the help of some of you, and it's driver is becoming more knowledgeable of what the limits are, so it is being put less under undue stress. But the human part of the equation seems a bit broken. 60 miles south of here is a nondescript little State campground on a Lake, Recreation Area. Looks reasonably quiet. 20 bucks a night. It seems prudent for this nervous system to go there for a day or two to see if it can restore itself. https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10212442432968792&id=1620551416
