I believe the Universe bends towards Justice and we all have a part. I've been a nonviolent organizer in the streets and in the office. I've taught at colleges and in many more church basements. These days, I coach others to take creative, life-affirming actions to win the world we want - one of ease, grace and justice. I live halfway up a hill on Chinook land in the Willamette Valley of Cascadia.
I would love to have you join me to get some work done! No fuss, no scheduler, just show up!
I'm doing this because I need this. Very low key - just show up and get some work done with me. I'd love the company.
I can get persnickety if co-working gets too chatty so hopefully the format keeps us focused and moving - we can share resources at the end. See you there!
Finn (dog) is healing up physically after the attack. Mentally, we both have a ways to go. Our walks used to be what I did to cope with stress. Now they are the stress. For the love of god people, leash your animals, I don't care how good you think they are. Or even how good they actually are. My dog and I are on edge.
(Finn is very committed to laying with his injured side hidden. He's still my beautiful boy.)
This is Finn. Today on our usual morning walk, he was attacked by a loose dog intent on killing him (grabbed and held him by the throat). The fight went on a long time and many humans helped while we bravely fought. Tonight he has medicine, multiple pup cups and the ability to rest at home. We are safe. I am so grateful. Good night.

“Nature seems to exult in abounding radicality, extremism, anarchy. If we were to judge nature by its common sense or likelihood, we wouldn't believe the world existed. In nature, improbabilities are the one stock in trade. The whole creation is one lunatic fringe . . . No claims of any and all revelations could be so far-fetched as a single giraffe."' —Annie Dillard, Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
