Wrote a piece a few yrs ago on contemporary interest in "mindfulness." Sadly interesting—such practice is the heart of contemplative traditions, but some modern Westerners can't decide if it's religion. Our presumptive definitions of "religion" need to be interrogated. thesideview.co/journal/deco...

Still rolling on the new Ken Burns, tonight interesting to learn that all the conscientious objector Quakers from Philadelphia who refused to fight were condemned to “dreary Winchester” VA.

Iceland has designated the potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) a national security concern and an existential threat.
Yet still fossil fuel usage continues to grow, and they barely agreed to *name* the problem at #COP30.

This Day in Labor History: November 25, 1865. Mississippi created the first of the Black Codes. Designed to recreate slavery in all but name, this signified the South’s resistance to the freeing of their labor force and the lengths to which it would go to tie workers to a place under white control.

Patient came in with sore throat. While waiting for rapid Strep test result we glanced back at the Covid-19 RAT result: positive. Reminder that masking in health care makes sense, if you don’t want everyone in your waiting room to go home sick, your staff to get sick, and physicians to get sick.

Freakishly warm weather this week is really working for our fall garden. Im proud of this lettuce grow, also a great year for these purple stemmed kale which are very sweet. Multiplier onions and garlic are up and Ill mulch them with leaves before the freeze. Turnips and beets still growing too.
