The first step in writing a manifesto is to penetrate the indoctrination that injustice is inevitable.

improvisational cooking monologue

So, in order to encourage myself to cook more, and especially in order to encourage myself to try cooking new things, I've signed up for organic vegetable delivery -- a whole box of fruits and vegetables delivered to my door, twice a month. One one hand, it's working; I'd never cooked with beets before tonight. On the other hand, those beets weren't in my box -- they were in a friend's who gets her delivery the weeks I don't!

an irrational reaction to current events

what does it take to stop a downhill slide started decades ago?

There's been some fretting about whether might makes right lately, on the subject of Afghanistan -- whether might is expressed with the force of weapons or with the force of cash. I think it's good people are asking these questions. I think it's good to doubt the answers, whatever answers come; I don't trust concrete answers, especially around questions of "right" and "wrong."

I used to be a very simplistic pacifist. I believed that no matter what the goal was, there was a better way than force to achieve it, and that I had therefore a moral obligation to oppose the use of force. Either I'm slightly more cynical these days, or the world has gotten vastly more complicated in the past decade. I'm putting my money on the former...Anyway. I'm very glad that there are sober, rational voices on both sides of the various questions being asked about US foreign policy. Because I'm not rational about this, anymore. [more]
