We Can Do Better Wednesdays, Chapter 9, and Housing as a Human Right?
Context, Thought, and Learning: ShiraDest Offers Project Do Better
This post is the rough draft of Chapter 9, section II A of my non-fiction WiP, Do Better, fka Baby Floors. This part of chapter 9 will introduce the early years of mapping out a path to get there for Phase III. Universal Health Care should include having stable and safe housing, no? Or should it?
The overall objective remains that of putting a floor on poverty so that each and every baby born can have a safe childhood.
Outlines for chapter 9 will attempt to match with each section, at the bottom of early years posts.
Once again, by way of disclaimer, the overall goal is now to explain why we need both equ. + justice, & why in 4 phases. This chapter is part of showing what Phases I-IV could look like as potential roadmap for a fully inclusive society for all of us. This vision…

G-G-Ghost??? G-G-Gun???
The term ‘ghost gun’ has been in the news a great deal already this week (almost as much as that singer who claims to be pregnant!). Turns out the Department of Justice has issued a new ruling pertaining to ghost guns and President Biden announced the new ruling yesterday. I saw the headlines more than a few times, but passed them over for the time being, intending to return to the story when I had time to ask some questions and seek answers. So, late Monday night, I asked my first question: What the hell is a ghost gun, anyway?
And then I sought the answer. A ghost gun, as I understand it, is a kit … rather a do-it-yourself gun that comes in pieces but can be easily assembled in about a half hour. The attraction for the gun nuts is that the ghost gun is ……

Al contabilizar los instantes y los años

¿Serán la mañana y la tarde, la noche y la madrugada, un poema o trozos de hojas secas que se desprenden del árbol y dispersa el viento? ¿Serán los instantes, pedazos de horas y de días, porciones de semanas y de meses, o acaso desconduelo de los años que pasan casi imperceptibles? ¿Serán alegrías o nostalgias lo que uno siente al contabilizar los momentos que han partido? ¿Serán espejismos los períodos de la existencia que ya pasaron y no volverán? ¿Serán reales las etapas de la vida o simplemente se trata de sueños que se diluyen mientras naufragan en la memoria? ¿Serán los años, en el mundo, treguas que se hacen desde el infinito para valorarlo por lo que significa y distinguirlo de la temporalidad?

قصيدة تافهة.. تجريب في تأديب اللاشيء أنطولوجياً

قرأت شعراً أنطولوجياً لكُتّاب وصفتهم المؤسسة الداعمة للكِتاب على أنهم كُتّاب ما بعد الحداثة وحركة الأنطولوجيون الجدد.
حسناً.. هل يمكن إطلاق لفظ يحتمل كل مقومات الماوراء الذهني على أي شيء أنه أنطولوجيا! باعتبار أنّ المصطلح هو دراسة الجانب غير المادي للوجود، ومحاولة تطبيقه على كافة العلوم.
هنا نصبح كأشخاص عابرين في الحياة، نحمل هذا التعريف ونمارسه بشكل طبيعي حتى لو كنا لا نعلمه، ولا ننتمي أصلاً لفكرة الوجود ولا نعلم لماذا نحن نحيا أو ما هو الوجود؛ يمكن اعتبارنا كائنات هلامية عابرة بلا أي هدف، لكننا في العمق نحمل قيمة الأنطولوجيا من خلال التعريف نفسه دون أن ندركه.
بل يصبح أن تطبيقه على كل شيء هو أقرب للمكانة الفكرية الساذجة التي يمكن أن نصف ما نشاء الآخرين بأقوالهم هو فعل أنطولوجي كتعريف أكاديمي لأنه أصلاً نابع من القدرة الذهنية التي تؤمن بكل ما ورائيات المادة وآليات توصيفها العميقة.
ما قصدته ببساطة هو أنّ أي شيء يمكن أن يكون عميقاً وله…

COVID-19 cases trend up again in the US, driven by the growth of BA.2
In some ways, this feels like a familiar place. Cases are going up again. At least one major city is reinstating its mask mandate. Broadway shows have canceled some performances. But there continue to be reasons for optimism.
