HEAD SPINNING - AWAKE ALL LAST NIGHT... IF THE LAPTOP GETS REPAIRED... (details)

If funds are forthcoming to repair my laptop destroyed by a clinically deranged homeless guy 3 weeks ago ... 

I lay awake ALL NIGHT LONG last night, my head spinning... !!!!!!!!!!.... it will enable me to resume what I've not done in 2 years now - a all day stake out of Capitol Hill where the congress folks walk by, within inches... to get to the capitol... with my solar panel, SOLAR PANEL... driving the laptop all day long - that visual at some level would be powerfully in-your-face to the deniers, and could be used by the good-folks in congress. Oh well, whatever the Creator wants. (((HUGS))) to you both.  And when congress is gone for summer break... I expect to continue - where the major tourist groups are... close to 7 days per week... all day... dawn to dark... this guy with the Jesus / Universal Family / Christlike / Jesus (huge black and white letters) sitting with his solar panel, working on laptop (and online if somehow the wifi funds materialize... 30-60/month).  PROOF OF A FUTURE, THE FUTURE... RIGHT IN FRONT OF THEIR EYES... Lincoln Memorial... Capitol Hill, Washington Monument... Jefferson Memorial... White House.....   OMG.  (Hey, Creator, Father, please get off your butt and make this happen?)

BTW, my paypal MAY work, if any funds are forthcoming. It would be worth a try. I had a tiny balance on this account I used once years ago... and it let me transfer that to my checking account. It would NOT let me transfer out from my checking account 2 weeks ago to that needy 'sister' in NJ, but it may well allow transfer in. Just in case.  

My beloved upstate 'Sister' Kathy Green, well, takes my breath away:


Ok kids ... Red tail hawk painting... I am going to auction it off to help the cause and James Mcginley!
Start bidding!!! Auction ends on Friday and it will go to the highest bidder! It's acrylic on canvas 16x20
Start your bidding!!! I will ship it for free anyplace in the America !
Again this is the man who we a need out there everyday! Please help us help him! Bid on the painting ! Or just donate! Our goal is small to some.. Big to others.. $330!

I finally heard from Dell, $330 to replace the motherboard in my computer. To buy a comparable machine, refurbished, would be over $800 from Dell. (see link) Argh. So, if I can come up with $330, that's the responsible choice. From the time of receipt by Dell at their repair depot, last Wednesday, I have 5 days to tell them - that is tomorrow afternoon deadline. If any souls wish to contribute toward this repair fee, now would be a good time to let me know. ZERO EXPECTATIONS. I AM UNWILLING TO ACCEPT ANY FUNDS THAT WOULD 'HURT' THE DONOR. But if any can afford to contribute, and feel compelled to.... If I am able to replace the computer, that leaves one other item in my work that needs support - monthly wifi of between $30 and $60 per month. Anyone that feels compelled to support my work in this way.... (((HUGS))) no matter what (ZERO Expectations. Just sayin)

Note to someone immeasureably dear in my earlier life

Hi. I think of you often, often... too.
 
We are in such different worlds... and I'm moving faster
and deeper into mine - 100% solidarity with our global neediest,
and away from, and against, Elysianism, that cancer that
kills all within it, and now everything else as well.
 
I'm not making a point to you - I'm sharing what I'm more
deeply aware of every day. 
 
I've joined another guy in voluntarily
doing the laundry for the 225 men, my family,
on my floor every day.
 
Using headphones while I wash and fold (9 hrs yesterday), 
I listen to / 'read' books - Eliz Warren,
Manfred Max-Neef the great Chilean/Berkeley economics
scholar (UN, World Bank) for the poor, Crossan on Jesus, .... 

Oh: Homeless guy in DC, aColgate Univ grad, murdered outside his shelter yesterday http://jesusgodgoodetcnjay.blogspot.com/2014/06/homeless-colgate-u-grad-killed-in-dc.html
 
Nearly ALL the great souls
throughout history have seen that we had a choice - to return
to the profoundly egalitarian culture of pre-agriculture to live
in Love, Compassion, Harmony, SOLIDARITY... or we
could collectively and individually destroy ourselves by
living in ever more vicious competition, GREED (competition),
Elysianism, and of course, more fiercely every day we Elysians choose
Greed (denying to ourselves brilliantly and completely  that we are doing
any such thing).
 
As I've written recently, SOLIDARITY, Lived, 100% solidarity
of, by, for, and WITH the neediest is Loving, IS the ONLY True
Revolution that has ever been available to humanity to pull
out of it's orgy of needless suffering, meaninglessness, pain... and now
planet-wide extinction.  I continue to stumble blindly, poorly,
gratefully, JOYFULLY.. in that direction... 100% Lived Solidarity,
and away from the world you knew me in.
 
That will never affect one iota my Loving of you... nothing can.
But it is important for you to try and understand, and being as
amazingly smart as you are.. I think you do to an amazing degree.
 
I'm typing now from a computer in the Library of Congress.
It is not a bad hike from the shelter, tho it seems a bit long now seeing
as my hip seems to have dislocated 3 days ago. 
 
I don't know what I'll do regarding replacing the computer.  I had
the funds until yesterday when I mailed most of them to someone
I knew in high school (tho I can't remember her or nearly anyone... from HS)
who works her butt off, has had lots of hard knocks in life... and
is on the verge of losing her apt and truck that she uses in her
antiques, etc, business out of NJ.
 
I have ZERO support for my efforts, for my work... and it is for that
and that only that I could accept or use funds to replace it.  I am
way past the time of accepting resources for me - I've used up
a million times more than my share.  2 homeless guys (dozens
were horrified to see my laptop destroyed) independently offered
to replace it for me; and a pastor that ministers every Sat nite
at the shelter (a deeply Godly man) offered too.  I refused these
kind offers on the basis I said - I can accept nothing... only my
work - that has ZERO support or traction.
 
There is 1 year left on the warrant of that laptop.. but the damage
is near-certainly not covered by that warranty. Yesterday I sent it back
(wasted 10 days with FedEx fumbling the handoff of the depot
box) to Dell.  By week's end I should know the Creator's verdict.
 
(((((HUGS))))) forever, no matter what

Loving update: My Family here in the shelter

I like the fellows here, 225 or so, as much or more than any group I've ever
been associated with.  These are the guys that unlike me who was born
2' from the Finish line, with armies of folks to get me over before anyone else...
they were born 100 miles behind the Finish line, with a lifelong gauntlet of abuse,
violence, hatred, bigotry, neglect, poverty, starvation.... that they've made it
through, unlike most.  They are tough guys with a 5 word vocabulary each - Mother F'r,
N*gger, and an unpredictable last 2 words to round it out... but they are sooo
real.  We aren't buddies, we don't chat, but I Love them, and I am constantly
amazed at the decency and basic respect they show me, an over privileged
white guy with tattoos on his face... with few exceptions.

My reply:  "When a man spends 12 hours per day, 7 days per week, fighting, and when his work is devastated... only one person comes forward offering material aid so that work can continue... the man needs to admit that his work is not valued by others."

I think I'll be doing 1/2 the laundary for my 250 brothers in the shelter from here on out - a way of Loving..

Jesus made of his life, of his very being, and existential scream against the cruelty, inhumanity, lovelessness, walking deadness, ecocidiality... of Elysianism. I strive to do the same.

***** Many people who are not homeless or near pennilessness... know of my computer, my weapon, being dead. Two, C and Pastor A who ministers at the homeless shelter EVERY Saturday night (and knows I detest most all of christianity), offered to replace it. One near-penniless activist offered to get it running. Today, two homeless people, TWO HOMELESS PEOPLE, who know nothing of my work... offered to replace it. Yes, all five offers were serious. Yes, I turned them down. I cannot accept support of me anymore (in such a needy world, I do don't matter). If anything mattered it would be my work, we destitute, but only d places any value on that; well, d and me. TWO HOMELESS PEOPLE OFFERED TO REPLACE MY COMPUTER TODAY... 'GIFTS,' THEY SAID. I'VE DONE NOTHING FOR THESE PEOPLE. WE BARELY HAVE EVER TALKED. THEY KNOW NOTHING OF MY WORK.

In all of Creation there is one, and only one, group I am succeeding mightily at serving - the shelter's bed bug population.

***** It troubles me that among our few healthiest (activists) they so often gravitate toward 'symbolic' actions. I think this is profoundly well intended... and a deeply sad error, soon species-terminal error, of zero hope... from some of the only folks who could be hope to the future. I find no where in Life that a healthy, Godly, adaptive life-form every acts in a fundamentally 'symbolic' way. Of course, symbols are used and presented, but never as an end, by True Life.

I remember about 7 years ago, at a Catholic Worker house attending an evening with someone I saw as an immensely heroic, unimaginably courageous... elderly activist (his name escapes me).  I was deeply moved by his talk, but also concerned - 'symbolic action' was so central to what he was saying (I forget how many years or decades he had spent in prison), I couldn't believe I was understanding this aspect correctly.  So I asked him, afterward, 'Father, I mean, we, the forces of Light, are supposed to fight (unviolently) to 'win,' correct???'  He didn't miss a beat - "No,": was his unequivocal answer.  I think there are few True activists today that disagree with him in their hearts - I don't know how to understand their actions any other way, regardless of how self-sacrificial (paying the price) they may be.

I've done much study since then... Jesus fought to win.  We are supposed to be fighting, in Love, unviolently... to win.  Life fights to win - this is the Truth - it fights for the proliferation of ALL constructive Life and Life Forms.  IT DOES - THIS IS WHAT CREATION DOES.  Any and all deviation from this is Error, Sin, and now... DOOM, unless.... 

ps.  Life, adaptive, creative Life that fights for Life to Win... WILL PREVAIL IN THE END....  This is a fact.  The question is whether any but .00001% of all current species on earth, and the species homo sapiens... will be among the survivors... and the current Truth is, almost certainly not.  (To Linda LeTendre, thanks for the inspiration.)

***** I've just completed Ashley Montagues, 'Darwin, competition and cooperation.' It may come to pass that more evil has been done by this well intentioned man Darwin, through his profoundly incomplete theory, then by all of history's Hitler's combined. His theory is utterly correct and brilliant for the life form that is cancer - that form of life that is blind to all to future generations, including its own, insanely obsessed with its own immediate growth and satisfaction. Put forth by Darwin honestly and even brilliantly this Deathly incomplete theory has been and is gasoline poured on the blazing insanity of yesterday's and today's sociopaths. Exactly as seen in the human body, ferocious, 100 percent, devoted, self sacrificial, cooperation and equality of all members are the features of all adaptive life forms, species. 'Survival of the fittest' is the feature of terminal cancer.

***** I am under deadly attack. (detail). The top 20 percent in this country, be it out of malice or mere blinding greed, are more and more stomping the life out of we destitute, around the world forever, and now here at home. Look around you and you will see that this is objectively, factually, undeniably true. We are not people to them, we are multicolored trash. You are under exactly the same attack. You just refuse to see it. If you remain in denial just a few more years, when you awaken it will be too late to save yourselves, and for your children and all creation a non horrible future will be out of the question.

------------Loving, Who precisely are the 20% and what are they doing that I can influence ... I don't "refuse to see it" but am perhaps unaware. BTW, Rex was served last Friday so he has until next Friday to reply to my petition. Doing what I know best. What else do you suggest?

Today I sent a small claim petition to the Denton County Justice of the Peace. T...he sole purpose of the petition is to trigger a conversation. My goal is to meet and talk, relying the petition content to guide a transparent discussion.


------------DG, for me it is only within the last two weeks that this understanding above has taken a quantum leap within me and lodged deep in my being (I hope.)  About 30 years ago, as you know better than I I suspect, some MIT professors(?) published, "Limits to Growth," and last year or so published an update confirming their findings that - we were (and at an accelerating rate continue) raping and plundering ourselves out of existence. They were showing us that on earth life had become a zero sum game - unless everyone lived according to their need, instead of to their greed (taking more than their global share), we were consuming ourselves QUICKLY, IMMINENTLY, out of existence.  AT LEAST the top 20% economically in the US (and other Developed countries now) are consuming at 10's to 1000's of times our share (as I did my first 50 years or so).  AT LEAST the top 20% economically, and possibly the top 60-80% (lower middle class and up).  Earth is headed, as you know, quickly, toward 10 billion people.  At the consumption of folks in India this can be sustained!  At the consumption of Americans... earth can only support 2 billion people - TOTAL (we're currently over 7 billion).  EVERYTHING... ANYONE... CONSUMES MORE THAN THEIR GLOBAL SHARE - IS STARVATION TO 5 TIMES AS MANY PEOPLE -  IT IS MURDER, and now, not just of we humans, and we destitute masses of the world... but to all of earthly Creation.
