Commune in the east bay hills?


Hi Tym, So nice to see you recently in DC! 

Just emailed my mother this morning regarding questions of hope that knowing you inspires some hope in me :) Thank you! How are you, and when are you traveling next to the ME? And what's new in your world? Some musings ahead here (and HOPE and thinking email to my mother way down at the bottom! :) - 

Just shared some of these ideas with friends too mostly from Portland Oregon and years' ago ~

Who is involved in intentional communities these days? What other new intentional communities do you know of? Any emerging from Reed thinking, Friends' thinking, Stanford thinking, Wesleyan thinking?

I enjoyed finding this update this morning about the Alpha Farm intentional community - https://www.ic.org/directory/alpha-farm/ (which began with secular decision-making approaches or principles of Quaker or Friends' consensus process) - in the Oregon coastal mountains, which friends in the email and I visited a number of years ago from Reed. 

Regarding potential new communes in the 2020s - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commune - https://www.ic.org/directory/communes/ - am not sure if the Farm in Tennessee could be relevant too - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Farm_(Tennessee) - https://thefarmcommunity.com/

Longevity & aging reversal genetic drug therapies' emerging? 

... and regarding long-living open culture? :)

Please share your news! :)

Friendly regards, and abolition-ally, 
Scott

HOPE and thinking


Ma, 

New thread ~ :)

Am remembering George Alexander MD's thinking about hope, that it's in becoming more sophisticated (thoughtful or thinking about the real' - could be my interpretation) in which HOPE lies (and not in any religious language or figure eg Jesus or Mohammed etc, which question he may have thought about in relation to his analysands) ... and your voice also sounded somehow sophisticated last night (appreciating Martha Briscoe and Quakers' focus on simplicity here too, on the other hand).

Hope?
Hope for funding for WUaS? (Glad and a little surprised too to see the money returned to Credit card statement from airline and for gloves - and I'd like to say thanks to you for this too somehow). 

And could I be hopeful for funding for WUaS Monthly Business Meeting thanks somehow to visiting with Karen Leighty and Tym Lenderking in DC - after nearly 15 years of no money, and as a consequence of writing Alexandra Medina-Borja an ideas''one-pager' even on Friday? Will wait and see?

Could I also be hopeful of getting a house in Canyon thanks to sensible (abolition movement) thinking of the state of California and health organizations (like Kaiser Permanente) and medical doctors, after living in its "negative vortex's" for some 13 years, due to mentally ill former landlord and Canyon's inferred depraved aspects too, which I think and hope can change - which 'negative vortex'
words Sunheart used about Harbin Hot Springs too? (Was glad to have talked with family friend George Alexander MD a fair amount while living in Canyon in some of these regards somehow too).

And when could I be hopeful about returning to Harbin and for field work (safely - and even with a genetic engineering therapy to reverse my right ear 'eustachian tube dysfunction' re possibly soaking in its warm pool waters)?

And could I possibly be hopeful of meeting a friend like the attractive woman I saw in the Politics and Prose Bookstore in DC with Tym over Xmas - if good - connecting with her, and beginning a family? (Could she wishful thinking wise have gone to Princeton Univ possibly)? Could she even move out here?

AS I was playing the Piobaireachd "Beloved Scotland: I Leave Thee Gloomy" last night (it's Misty in Scotland often!), with moments of pessimistic feelings, but also enjoyably, I thought later - hopefully - of Ma and Marsalis's #11 "Be optimistic" - http://scottmacleod.com/GuidelinesPracticingMusicalInstrument.htm - and which generated some hope for me :)

Lots of 'LACK OF HOPE' issues above (and over the last years of not seeming to gain traction funding wise with WUaS, for example), but perhaps thanks to YOU too especially - and to thinking too, and agency, all of the above hopelessnesses could become reasons for hope :)

If we can, machine learning wise, learn how to predict longevity at the cellular level beyond 122 years of age for humans genetically - and even engineer reversing aging - could this be reason for great hope too?

You're a very Wonderful person Ma (and Sandy too) and am just exploring some questions here about Hope and hopelessness too re the real in my life in recent years- George Alexander MD occasionally left me feeling hopeless too) ... But Desiderata-wise - https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html - am appreciating the "Be cheerful" thinking of George Alexander too here ~ 
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful. Strive to be happy.
And also appreciating your recent interesting 'transformations' or 'becomings' into George getting a drink over Xmas in your kitchen (as a kind of expression of happiness for him), and your sounding like Tym's voice last night on the phone. Tym gives me some hope too (and I just learned that he's another kind of head or leader in the Middle East besides in Yemen -https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Lenderking) re further hope re ability to effect change and from Washington DC  :) 

Thank you, Ma!

HOPE and THINK ideas' on a Sunday morning Ma! And I hope you have a great day 😊!

Love you, Scott


Hoping you are doing wonderfully, Tym, and looking forward to touching base in the not too distant future!

Much 💕 Love, Scott
