I'm doing this in my next life. I'll probably be a macho latino guy, so this is a positive outlet for that energy.
I report on how consciousness and community are transcending god and state, locally in Washington, DC, and globally, where ever I see progress - or backsliding, including on the feminist front!

Enough, already, you can keep the old, ugly Doctor Who
Like a lot of people I said, "Oh, no, they're going to replace fun cute Matt Smith "Dr Who" with some ugly old guy. It'll never watch. I'll never watch it. boo hoo hoo."
I think it was about the 8th time someone in the first Capaldi episode brought up how disgusting it was he was old and ugly, emphasizing much breast beating by various characters,I said, "Ok, you win, let him be old and ugly. Just don't talk about it any more!" Just in case they needed to reach the hard cases (those who really are young and pretty), they bemoaned the Horrible Fact another 6 or 7 times. Is that called reverse psychology? Or just psychology.
And if we keep talking about getting rid of patriarchy and violence and war will they get fed up and say, "OK, let there be equality and freedom and peace and love" and cut out all their BS? Time hopefully will tell...
Update 9/16/14: After three shows I can honestly say I LOVE THE NEW DR. WHO. After all he IS 10 years younger than me, about the age I like them. And Peter Capadi is cute and funny like Roberto Benigni of "It's a beautiful life" fame. Plus he's Scottish, and hopefully those brave souls will be freeing themselves from the English yoke this week in their September 2014 referendum.

Warlord McCain with ISIS warlords... and anti-Warlordism in Ferguson
A Huffington Post listing of McCain's support for the "Freedom fighters" in Syria is quite a contrast to his recent calls for US military destruction of the Islamic State (of Iraq/Syria/Levant) - aka ISIS. But as ISIS released photos show, he met with one or more of of their leaders already. Warlord meets warlords.
Now he wants to bomb his buddies. We'd all be dead in nuclear war if that psycho-pathological nut had been elected president in 2008. Unfortunately, it's likely the Republicans will elect a similar nut in 2016, one that wants to do a quickie first strike on Russia and China, as well as to keep on warring on Arabs and Muslims. Unless Americans reject the warmongering vs. Arabs and Russians being promoted now.
At least Americans rebelled against the police state in this country over in Ferguson, Missouri (even if there was macho and/or government provocateur looting and burning and molotov cocktail throwing). Now Americans must make the connection between police racial oppression at home and US militaristic racist imperialism world wide, including even against all those white people who don't speak English as a first language!

And let's not forget what the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians.
Reminder to Israelis and their supporters:
THOU SHALT NOT STEAL
(Palestinian land)
THOUGH SHALT NOT KILL
(Palestinians to get or keep that land)
Remind me to make my own photo meme thingie...
