The aging of the country’s #infrastructure as funds go to #waging-endless-wars, the #selling-of-utilities to #predatory #companies, the #dismantling of #social-services, the #deregulation and #consolidation of the #banks, the #exacerbation-of-inflation by a #proxy-war; they’ve all rendered the #people without the #resources to be able to absorb #emergencies.

As geopolitical analyst George Friedman observed in 2015: “For the United States, the primordial fear is… [the coupling of] German #technology and German #capital, [with] Russian natural #resources [and] Russian manpower.”

Secondhand MacBooks that retailed for as much as $3,000 are being turned into parts because recyclers have no way to #login and factory reset the machines, which are often just a couple years old.

The conditions that make life possible are rapidly changing. Reckoning with this reality on the cusp of another dry season that may very well ravage his community, 30-year old filmmaker Emmett Brennan embarks on a remarkable journey to find stories of hope and healing. Emmett sets out to walk 200 miles next to the iconic but aging Los Angeles aqueduct, where he encounters ecological iconoclasts, #indigenous voices, and #permaculture designers who are challenging the status quo on how we use Earth’s most precious resource. The film delves into a profound and far reaching look at our relationship with water and offers a vision for how to radically redesign our lives around it.
Reflection: a walk with water takes a refreshing approach to confronting our current environmental and systematic troubles, showing how Los Angeles and other parts of California are bellwethers for change. The film features original music from multiple Grammy winner, Jacob Collier, who is Executive Music Producer of the film. With voices and stories that speak to today’s younger generations, Reflection is both a personal meditation on water as well as a practical road map for positive change.

Someone told me that the fight in #ukraine is mirrored in a part of Buddhist philosophies.
I read the following and started to wonder what is talked about and who is who?
The Realm of Asuras
The Asura (Jealous God) Realm is marked by #paranoia.Asuras are hyper-competitive and paranoid. They are driven by a desire to beat their #competition, and everyone is competition. They have #power and #resources and sometimes accomplish good things with them. But, always, their first priority is getting to the top. I think of powerful #politicians or corporate leaders when I think of Asuras.

Facts fight back - Fossil fuel industry promises.
Not only is the government giving our resources away, it's gift wrapping them in tax deductions and subsidies.
