Life's Tenacity: Thriving in the Harshest Climates

Subject: Protecting the Civil Society We Have Built — [ an urgent, logical and emotional request]. Esteemed Colleagues and Fellow Citizens, We live in a time when our societies — particularly in Europe — have come a very long way. Many of us remember earlier times when public life was harsher, more exclusive, more rigid. Today, thanks to the combined efforts of reformers, policymakers, civil-society activists, and ordinary citizens, we enjoy a comparatively civil and fair society — one that, in many places, welcomes and supports people from all over the world, extending the same rights, and sometimes even greater protections, than those enjoyed by old school citizens. That openness — that ability to treat “the stranger” with dignity — is evidence of humanity at its best, even of a God-fearing compassion that sustains our collective moral fabric. It is precisely because we hold these values dear that we must ask ourselves: what feeds our society must be protected, and what threatens it ...

My Position:  Existentialism today is not about the individual vs. the absurd ; it’s about whiteness vs. the loss of its world-central meaning.  Or colloquially I mean, 98 percent of news globally foists white-people related stuff on earthling's— mostly racism, then Trump, then some white-people related stuff in the so-called Middle East [Israel / Arabs], then some Orania / KKK / America First / WPWW 88 stuff, then “white race being invaded by immigration” stuff, then some Reform-councillor talk about not seeing Blacks and Asians on TV, then royal-family drama, then stories about white billionaires owning everything, then another white school shooter, then tech bros arguing over AI , then Hollywood , then Elon Musk, then Farage, then Tommy Robinson, then back to if Israel killed Charlie Kirk, then French president’s-wife-is-not-a-man gossip, and then documentaries from eloquent closet Nazis about “protecting Western values,” followed by the usual photo of a wannabe Jesus — b...

    Denim ’s journey from coarse slave wear to  haute couture  is not merely a story of textile innovation—it is a mirror of  racialized labor ,  colonial economies , and  cultural reclamation . To understand denim’s origins is to confront the brutal architecture of the  Atlantic world  and the enduring legacy of  Black ingenuity . “Negro Cloth”: The Fabric of Enslavement In the 18th and early 19th centuries, enslaved Africans and African Americans in the American South were clothed in a range of coarse, inexpensive textiles collectively referred to as  Negro cloth ,  slave cloth , or  Lowell cloth . These fabrics—often made from cotton, hemp, or linen—were dyed with  indigo , a crop cultivated by enslaved laborers using techniques rooted in West African traditions. South Carolina’s 1735 Negro Act  codified the use of such materials, listing “Negro cloth, duffelds, osnaburg, [and]  coarse calicoes ” among ac...

Each ring inward strips away form, identity, and narrative — until you reach pure potential , the zero-point field , the uncarved block . It’s the inverse of expansion: not a journey into space, but into depth. 🔍 The Inward Spiral: Rings Within Rings Void / Singularity / Source No-thing. All-potential. The silence before the word. 1 Soul / Photon / Lifeforce Not a thing, but a frequency. A pulse. A question. The observer behind the eyes, the witness of thought. Consciousness Layers of awareness: ego, shadow, archetype, dream. Memory, intuition, ancestral signal. Emotion / Thought Electric storms. Chemical poetry.

  Labour Inherited a Mess — Here’s the Proof: Record NHS waiting lists — millions left untreated after 14 years of Tory neglect. Public debt at historic highs , yet services at their worst — where did the money go? Youth opportunities gutted — apprenticeships down, tuition debt up, wages stagnant. Schools crumbling , literally — unsafe buildings, outdated tech, underpaid teachers. Housing crisis ignored — rents through the roof, home ownership a fantasy for young Brits. Cost of living catastrophe — inflation outpacing wages, food banks now a norm. Public transport broken — delayed trains, collapsing bus routes, rail strikes unresolved. Police underfunded , crime reporting down, community trust shattered. Small businesses crushed — red tape, no support, energy bills unmanageable. Brexit promises betrayed — less trade, more paperwork, no benefits for ordinary people. Climate targets abandoned — green industries sold off, UK falling behind glob...
