‘Get the Memo’ – New, original song co-written with a friend, about not mindlessly following the herd.

What a treat it’s been to work on this song over the past month or so. Recorded at a top-secret location in Voluntary Japan, the concept is the brainchild of my good friend V from the Tokyo Bitcoin Cash Meetup, and the songwriting and music/production was done by myself and the Nite Owl Works crew.…

Note (76) Ryōkan’s Hangover

Half-cocked running down the road in “crocs” — unplanned Once a Wheatfield boy, always *** When you’re drunk each little moment becomes enough Like being a child again But not quite. *** I like to think of Ryōkan hungover the poems people never talk about those that were never published Cherry blossoms falling on a…

Update from Voluntary Japan on a 6-Mile Walk Home After a Festive Earthquake

STATE OF THE ONION ADDRESS. STATE OF THEY ONION: They are still round and taste good on sandwiches. Hello errrbody. As I am coming up on 15 years (15years!?) here in Voluntary Japan, I wanted to make a little video detailing how things are going and how I see Japan changing. Some negative observations, but…

Cheers from Voluntary Japan

To the voluntaryists out there insistent on actually applying the golden rule to everything in life, and not making convenient exceptions in the name of politics or religion: Thank you. Cheers to you. There is no pawning off of responsibility, ultimately. If we want the world to become better, we cannot wait for a president,…

Watching your family support genocide sucks

I have watched members of my family sink into supporting genocide. There is no way to talk about it. They ask for proof. I send loads of proof. “But Hamas!” …. I send proof and open admissions from Israeli officials that “Hamas” is a creation of the Israeli state. That the state their knew about…

Sakuragi

When I’m feeling really busted, this tree, nature, still makes sense. Makes me feel less alone and heals me a bit when I really just wanna fucking give up. This tree doesn’t watch FOX or CNN, it doesn’t worry about 6-year-old fake disease scares, or support ongoing genocides. It doesn’t care about Jeff Bezos or…

Spirit

My spirit’s kinda broken No one’s gonna care when you tell ’em why Keep it all unspoken Acceptance has more value than what’s right *** Raised on “bull and bread” Turns out it was just lead Poison for the mind Give me beef and brine *** I’ll take a distilled hate Over your evil days…

3 Modern Blasphemies on a Saturday Run (and their attendant, silly beliefs)

This is a cross-post from my running blog, here. It is more than possible (in fact much MORE POSSIBLE!) to live in basic, general peace with one another without violence-based governance (all modern states). Look around at those in your small communities in everyday life. Each man and woman owns themselves, and we respect their…

Surreal

Life is a cartoon. Make sure you’re not in the way of the bombs. These retards are running the show, because everyone continues to participate in politics, and man-made religions. Use your own brain, or this shit will continue. Consider voluntaryism. Something loving and logical. I was going to post a video I recently saw…

BCH SAKURA CASHRUN 6!

As I sit here reading all the news stories I can this morning, looking for something to write about for one of my part time occupations, the usual thing happens. I get overwhelmed by the abject evil of it all, and realize there’s very little I want to write about in the news today. And…
