"I love humanity--
it's just people I can't stand."
I love healthy humanity--
it's just uppity and/or snooty people I can't stand
I love cooperative humanity--
it's just overly-competitive individuals I can't stand.
Not so distant from,

deflects focus from compassion,
I've learned to go back to when I deflected focus from her.
She sends me passive-aggressive messages,
bread crumbs leading back in time
to where she began to feel alone,
marginalized,
siloed,
anxious,
neglected.

Victories For LoveThe problem of military reactions
to territorial control issues
is not merely that violence breeds further strategic development
of violence,
although this is no small,

into a verbal,
active,
regenerative more,
degenerative less,
occasionally Elite-Pirates v NonElite-Prey revolution,
and even more unconsciously occasionally
Elite/NonElite Creolizing-SelfReGenerative

Professor Glory's Active HopeThe title of this talk today,
"Win-Win Politics of New Feminist Economics"
suggests questions,
more than emasculating
definitively deductive
reductive
answers.
Would you imagine
a minority-identified Buddhist,
more likely as a feminist?
or culturally comfortable
with political and economic Left-brain domination,
monotheistic competing for all-consuming
ritualistic servicing?

Games We PlayYang, dear.

or, even worse,
vaguely sexist.

How sexist?
