   I needed to stop scrolling so I went for a run. Recommended. Along the ways there was a turtle in the middle of the road, and I moved her to safety. Also recommended. So much needs help! Find a little way to help and do it. I also had a few thoughts while plodding uphill...

     In what ways can those organized around love and community, sufficiency and ecology, find advantages vs structures of consolidated power, under conditions of destabilization? No answers from me, but I think these are good questions.

     Don't leave environmental collapse out of your analysis of democracy collapse. Some questions:
     - to what degree has premonitions of ecological collapse led to these power grabs?
     - to what degree will these power grabs accelerate ecological collapse?
