It is a time of freedom and fear, of Gaia and of borders, of many paths and the widening of a universal toll road, emptying country and swelling cities, of the public bought into privacy and the privacy of the public sold into invisible data banks and knowing algorithms. It is the time of the warrior's peace and the miser's charity, when the planting of a seed is an act of conscientious objection.

These are the times when maps fade and direction is lost. Forwards is backwards now, so we glance sideways at the strange lands through which we are all passing, knowing for certain only that our destination has disappeared. We are unready to meet these times, but we proceed nonetheless, adapting as we wander, reshaping the Earth with every tread.

Behind us we have left the old times, the standard times, the high times. Welcome to the irregular times.


Greens for Kerry
Monday, June 21, 2004
 
A new and important website for wavering progressives has come to our attention, and we'd like to share it with you.

Greens for Kerry serves two purposes. For the politically principled progressive who feels uncertain about the candidacy of John Kerry, Greens for Kerry has gathered together a number of informational resources for the stiffening of the spine, including quantitative measures of Kerry's progressivism and comparisons between Kerry and Bush on specific policy matters.

For those who are already convinced of the importance of "Green Green Lima Beans" (George W. Bush's derogatory term) supporting the Kerry ticket in 2004, Greens for Kerry offers an array of posters, lawn signs and bumper stickers to help spread the word.

The folks at this website really have their act together; I strongly recommend a visit.
