Ready to ignite?

Things are pretty mucked up.

CEOs are the new kings, while the plebs still pay. Climate. Pandemic. Autocracy. War. All the _isms. These embers smolder inside us, at once fragile and potent, threatening to fizzle and ready to ignite.
We get frustrated with how inhumane our circumstances are.
We get overwhelmed with how impossible the big problems seem.
Yet we can think and do differently.
We can prioritize quality over quantity. We can prioritize wellbeing over profits. Basic needs over luxury. Climate over capital. Public benefit over personal gain. Democratic participation over corporate control. Evidence over bullshit.
We can push back the boundaries of what the powerful insist is impossible.
We can forge a new social contract.
