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.


New Meetup: Against Bush
Tuesday, December 16, 2003
 
On Meetup.com, there are as many candidate-based Meetups as you could wish for. A Clark Meetup. A Kerry Meetup. A Sharpton Meetup. Heck, even a Draft Carter Meetup.

But for those of us who are against Bush more than we are for any particular candidate, there hasn't been a way for us to organize in a way that doesn't focus on (or lately, against) any particular Democratic candidate, but rather works against the candidacy of George W. Bush.

Thankfully, this has been remedied. Click here to check out the Against Bush Meetup, a growing group of people dedicated to meeting on a regular basis to get Bush out of office.
