Patsy Foley Was Roly-Poly In 1947

At first, no one could remember who started the...

Lovely idea.
But, we're only issuing Mall permits

In Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged"
she paints a nationalistically wealthy saint
where also lives a monochromatically utilitarian narcissist,
sucking on attachment to fame and power
for bought and sold ZeroSum accounting Souls.

Compassion co-arises nondually

Today I want to talk about possibilities
for integral polycultural dynamics,
which are systemic relationships,
correlations,
between LeftBrain deductive ego-mind,
RightBrain inductive eco-body,
and a boundary between these bicameral landscapes,
which we call unconsciousness.

The feasibility

I find multicultural capital investment

than more win/lose capital competitions.

Sociologists

so why don't natural scientists
