Just a spoonful of shopping makes the bombs go down the bombs go down the bombs go down. War is an active loss of our memory of the Earth. The pilots and crew of bombers are sighting the ordinance into the side of the Earth and losing their Earth Love. But you and I paying for it? What are we losing? Consumerism's wars have saturation advertising on one end of families on fire on the other. The bombing of the Earth breaks our own memory of being within the world of the Earth. Our shopping attacks memory, too, while selling the past as false nostalgia. Stop Shopping, Stop Bombing.

Trump’s 2nd Inaugural address, quoted liberally in this episode, is a master class in sustained paranoid surrealism. But while he can run, he can’t hide — from the Earth. With the global heatwave in its 24th month, with the worldwide storms and floods and wildfires and starvation and wars….Trump is a comedian falling through space. There will be a moment when nature’s apocalypse overwhelms his entertainment, say — three tornadoes hit the White House simultaneously and the Presidential portraits fly away on an atmospheric river out of American air space.

Trump takes over the government. The Earth takes the planet. We join the Earth. Taking risks, stepping out, speaking up. Marching in the ultimate parade. THE EARTH IS ALIVE. Everything we have in us—our resistance, our strength—is given to us by the Earth and is now called forth by the living Earth. She will raise us up to our best selves. The Earth is a living being, and we are living within her. We will join the larger life that calls to us, and we will end toxins and war with fierce Love.
