  Today I saw a fascinating mini article which I read quickly - and a longer one that took a while to assimilate. The second a reason for our need to reject the ongoing narrative of Corporatocracy

A short one today - I've been personally bowled over by a poet for a wee while now - and if you haven't seen/heard/read her - in so many more ways than certain chemical hair-product ads - she's worth it.

It's difficult to be in a place where you do not dread waking in the morning to turn up for work. Many issues come in to play. The amount you feel you need to earn - depends on your outgoings and the quality

A little like 'The Three Degrees' of Philadelphia, this can make your head swim and your heart soar - though is less likely to make your feet tap. Apologies, I didn't come here just to post stupid jokes

  A few years ago the EPA in the US massively increased the limit  of allowable glyphosate* residue in foods. (*e.g. the active component in Monsanto's Ready Roundup) . This meant in 'oilseed'
