  6. I attended the Mid-Peninsula #Indivisible chapter meeting today in Redwood City. It’s a gathering of such nice and dedicated people. Quite refreshing to see people working for good for a change.

    I’m planning to attend various organizing events around the area, and maybe help out in some way or another. I need to make some community connections!

  7. A quotation from Bertrand Russell

    People do not always remember that politics, economics, and social organisation generally, belong in the realm of means, not ends. Our political and social thinking is prone to what may be called the “administrator’s fallacy,” by which I mean the habit of looking upon a society as a systematic whole, of a sort that is thought good if it is pleasant to contemplate as a model of order, a planned organism with parts neatly dove-tailed into each other. But a society does not, or at least should not, exist to satisfy an external survey, but to bring a good life to the individuals who compose it. It is in the individuals, not in the whole, that ultimate value is to be sought. A good society is a means to a good life for those who compose it, not something having a separate kind of excellence on its own account.

    Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
    Lecture (1949-01-30), “Individual and Social Ethics,” Reith Lecture, “Authority and the Individual” No. 6, BBC Radio

  11. A quotation from Molly Ivins

    It’s all very well to dismiss the dismal sight of our Legislature in action by saying, “I’m just not interested in politics,” but the qualifications of the people who prescribe your eyeglasses, how deep you will be buried, what books your kids read in school, whether your beautician knows how to give a perm, the size of the cells in Stripe City, and a thousand and one other matters that touch your lives daily are decided by the dweebs, dorks, geeks, crooks, and bozos we’ve put into public office.

    Molly Ivins (1944-2007) American writer, political columnist [Mary Tyler Ivins]
    Essay (1992-03-01), “Good morning, Fort Worth! Glad to be here,” Fort Worth Star-Telegram

  17. As Nina Radulovic argues new Health Secretary, James Murray 'faces a clear choice. He can continue with privatisation and reactive policymaking, or he can begin rebuilding the NHS around equitable access & democratic control'!

    Sadly, as he seems already to have picked up Wes Streeting's stance on the Resident Doctors, this hope of (and argument for) a necessary reset of the NHS' political economy looks unlikely (although I'd happily be proved wrong).

  20. File under Californ-ja vu:

    Inland California counties propose resolution to secede from the coastal counties.

    This smells like the last major secession movement, the Free State of Jefferson. One of my books, "Stranger Son," took place in an alternate universe where Jefferson had seceded, hence my interest.

    This isn't going to work either, but it does show that California is not the political uni-culture certain media outlets like to depict.
