  6. A quotation from Wendell Berry

    People who live at the lower ends of watersheds cannot be isolationists — or not for long. Pretty soon they will notice that water flows, and that will set them to thinking about the people upstream who either do or do not send down their silt and pollutants and garbage. Thinking about the people upstream out to cause further thinking about the people downstream. Such pondering on the facts of gravity and the fluidity of water shows us that the golden rule speaks to a condition of absolute interdependency and obligation. People who live on rivers — or, in fact, anywhere in a watershed — might rephrase the rule in this way: Do unto those downstream as you would have those upstream do unto you.

    Wendell Berry (b. 1934) American farmer, educator, poet, conservationist
    Essay (1997), “Watershed and Commonwealth,” Citizenship Papers (2003)

  7. When I was a kid, for a brief time, we had a #recycling program. It was abandoned, like all forward-thinking things in this backasswards place, and today I feel sick from a week at my mom's throwing away absolutely everything. #Downriver #Detroit (that's "south Detroit" for you Journey fans), you remain an impressive shithole and I can't wait to see you vanishing from the airplane window again.
