Send us a textFilippense 3: 19 -21 Ewige vernietiging is hulle uiteinde, liggaamlike behoeftes is hulle god en skandelike dinge is hulle trots. Al waaraan hulle dink, is aardse dinge. Ons, daarteenoor, het ons burgerskap in die hemel. Van dáár verwag ons ook die Here Jesus Christus as Verlosser. Hy sal ons vernederde liggame verander in liggame met goddelike heerlikheid, soos sy eie. Hiervoor sal Hy dieselfde krag gebruik as dié waarmee Hy alle dinge onder sy gesag bring.(NLV) Hoe voel jy wanneer oënskynlik bose mense suksesvol is, maar diegene wat probeer om goed te doen, nie net misluk nie, maar as gevolg daarvan, ly? En wanneer dit met ons gebeur, is daar ‘n baie groot versoeking om opstandig te word.Lance Armstrong, die Amerikaanse fietsryer, het vroeg in sy loopbaan baie belowend gelyk en 'n paar groot wedrenne gewen voordat hy in 1996 met testikulêre kanker gediagnoseer is. Hy het herstel en dapper voortgegaan om die gesogte Tour de France sewe opeenvolgende kere van 1999 tot 2005 te wen. Toe hy egter skuldig bevind is op die aanklag van die gebruik van 'n verbode middel, is hy van al sy titels gestroop en geheel en al uit professionele fietsry verban.Stel jou nou voor dat jy een van die fietsryers is wat jaar na jaar die uitmergelende Tour de France ry, net om geklop te word deur iemand wat reeds ‘n ruk lank onder verdenking vir die gebruik van prestasie-verbeterende dwelms, is. Wat doen jy? Bly jy dwelm-vry en bly jy verloor, of begin jy dieselfde dwelms gebruik om mededingend te wees?Wel, dit hang af van wat vir jou belangrik is. Armstrong was bekoor deur sy korttermyn roem. Die apostel Paulus het oor mense met daardie soort ingesteldheid gesê:Filippense 3:19-21 Ewige vernietiging is hulle uiteinde, liggaamlike behoeftes is hulle god en skandelike dinge is hulle trots. Al waaraan hulle dink, is aardse dinge. Ons, daarteenoor, het ons burgerskap in die hemel. Van dáár verwag ons ook die Here Jesus Christus as Verlosser. Hy sal ons vernederde liggame verander in liggame met goddelike heerlikheid, soos sy eie. Hiervoor sal Hy dieselfde krag gebruik as dié waarmee Hy alle dinge onder sy gesag bring. (NLV)Daar is soveel meer aan die lewe as korttermyn sukses. Dink verder as die hede, want Jesus het vir jou gesterf en opgestaan om vir jou 'n ewige heerlikheid te gee, ‘n ewigheid wat ons nie nou kan sien nie en wat ons onsself nooit eers kan voorstel nie.Dit is God se Woord.

Just finished Iron John - A Book about Men by Robert Bly. It's book for men of all ages. Every man and woman should read it. Men need to read it to uncover what it means to be a man. Women need to read it to understand the men in their lives: fathers, sons, brothers, and spouses. Bly explores Deep Masculinity through legend of Iron John, a story from the Brothers Grimm. In this episode, I share how I learned about Robert Bly, and why I read it. I also share a passage on Law to Legends. This is the book that you have to read and reread. I... Absolutely... Loved... It!! Bly has left us countless and timeless pieces of wisdom and a whole host of authors to explore. This should be on every man's shelf.

We have officially moved out of the Hill House and are ready to move into Bly Manor.  The Haunting of Bly Manor is a gothic horror drama from Mike Flanagan, inspired by the works of Henry James, particularly The Turn of the Screw. Set in the 1980s, the series follows Dani Clayton, an American au pair hired to care for two orphaned children, Flora and Miles, at the eerie Bly Manor. As she settles into the grand yet unsettling estate, Dani discovers that Bly is filled with secrets, tragic histories, and lingering ghosts—both literal and emotional.  Episode 1 introduces Dani as she arrives at Bly Manor, eager to start fresh after a mysterious past haunts her. She meets housekeeper Hannah Grose, chef Owen, gardener Jamie, and the peculiar yet charming children, Flora and Miles. While the manor seems idyllic at first, strange occurrences begin—unlocked doors, unsettling reflections, and whispered warnings from Flora to stay inside at night. As the episode unfolds, it becomes clear that something sinister lurks in the shadows, watching and waiting.   We also celebrate the Stormy Skies officially getting her doctorate!

Vivir una aventura no es para todos: hay que enfrentarse a los peligros, aceptar las sorpresas, animarse a cambiar. Viajar entre continentes en 1889 no era para casi nadie… especialmente para las mujeres. Entonces, donde la puerta decía “no”, la periodista estadounidense Nellie Bly leía “sí”. Atraída por la idea de superar las 80 jornadas de viaje que el personaje de Julio Verne emplea en la hazaña en la novela “La vuelta al mundo en 80 días” (1872), Bly consigue el permiso del diario y zarpa desde Nueva York. El libro en el que escribe su periplo se llama “La vuelta al mundo en 72 días” (Los lápices editora, 2018) y empieza con el capítulo “La propuesta de dar la vuelta al mundo” que les leo en este episodio. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Pre producción y voz: CECILIA BONA Editó este episodio: DANY FERNÁNDEZ (@danyrap.f) para @activandoproducciones.proyecto ¡Ayudanos a crecer!

Lees: Luk 2: 41-52 en Joh 15: 1-8.  Fokus: Luk 2: 52.  Bly in Christus om gebalanseerd te groei. Daar is 4 sleutel areas/dissiplines waarin ons ten volle en in harmonie moet ontwikkel: verstandelik, fisies, sosiaal en geestelik.  Ons spandeer te veel tyd om uiterlike gedrag te probeer verander, in plaas van om te verander wat mense glo aangaande God en hulleself.  Die Heilige Gees laat ons vrugte dra as ons in Christus bly deurdat ons weet wie ons is as kinders van God.  Vir nadenke en gesprek by selgroepe en huisgodsdiens:  Beskryf die 4 dissiplines waarin ons ten volle en in harmonie moet ontwikkel.  Wanneer en hoe ontstaan Christelike wettiesheid?  Hoe vind gesonde en gebalanseerde groei plaas in al 4 dissiplines?

Send us a text1 Petrus 3:11,12 Bly weg van die kwaad af en doen wat goed is, soek vrede en jaag dit na! Die Here sorg vir die opregtes en luister na hulle hulpgeroep, maar Hy tree op teen dié wat kwaad doen.” Goed en kwaad – ons ken almal die verskil. Verstaan ons dit regtig? Dit is natuurlik soos swart en wit ... of verkies ons dalk skakerings van grys? Wat dink jy?Kom ons kyk wat gereeld gebeur. Wanneer dit kom by die beoordeling van ander se optrede, oordeel ons maklik. Ons besluit redelik vinnig of, wat hulle gesê, of gedoen het, of versuim het om te doen, ‘swart‘ of ‘wit' is.Maar wanneer dit kom by die beoordeling van onsself – ons gedagtes, ons motiverings, ons woorde, ons dade – dink ons dikwels nie eers regtig daaroor na nie. Ons oordeel ons s'n bykans nooit nie. En in die uitsonderlike geval wanneer ons dit wel doen, gooi ons baie van die wit verf by die swart! Wat is in elk geval fout met 'n bietjie spierwit of 'n ligter skakering van grys?Maar weet jy, vir God is dinge baie duidelik, en dit is óf goeie nuus, óf slegte nuus; afhangend van aan watter kant van die draad jy sit.1 Petrus 3:11,12 Bly weg van die kwaad af en doen wat goed is, soek vrede en jaag dit na! Die Here sorg vir die opregtes en luister na hulle hulpgeroep, maar Hy tree op teen dié wat kwaad doen.”Ons het almal 'n effense neiging om toe te laat dat kompromieë in ons lewens insluip en sonder om dit raak te sien - net daar -verdamp die vrede wat ons eens gehad het. Die dinge waarmee God ons eens geseën het, die antwoorde op gebed wat vroeër so geredelik gevloei het, is nie meer daar nie. Daar is 'n rede daarvoor.Die Here waak oor dié wat reg leef, en Hy luister graag na hulle wanneer hulle in gebed met Hom praat. Maar hy is teen dié wat kwaad doen.Dis Sy Woord.

It wasn't long after my entry into “mythopoetic masculinity” back in 2015 that I came across the Minnesota Men's Gathering, a yearly event that began in 1984 by Robert Bly, author of Iron John.The organization has released a trove of stories & lectures on their Youtube channel from celebrated teachers such as Bly, Lewis Hyde, Martin Prechtel, Martin Shaw, Daniel Deardorff, Malidome Some and many more. I have been tracking their yearly conference with a desire to attend - and when I heard it was the 40th anniversary, I heeded the call. I reached out and confirmed I my attendance, with the aim to produce a podcast episode afterward to share my experience.You're also welcome to join me at the Minnesota Men's Conference Oct 1-6, 2024. Get full details on their website.From the official announcement:The conferences were built around the notion that the souls of men were atrophying in a culture that was essentially in the process of colonizing its own people and of de-animating the living world. As an antidote to a culture of emptiness, of shallowness, and of disconnection from the web of being, men came together to work with mythic story, with images, with poetry, We placed ourselves into the mythic, into stories that contain traces of the old pathways to becoming a fully developed human being. The work has continued for 40 years. At this conference, we will look at what has been done, where we have failed, where there have been sweet deepenings, and where the trail may lead. In my pre-gathering podcast conversation today, I speak with conference organizers & storytellers Walton Stanley and Ben Dennis to discuss this moment of legacy and renewal. Both guests share their experiences from the conference, noting its evolution from a focus on Jungian psychology to including broader elements like ritual and influences from indigenous wisdom. They address cultural shifts, the importance of multi-generational participation, and the necessity of a greater narrative for men in today's world.More about my guests:Ben Dennis is a mythologist and writer with a love of story, myth, psychology, psychodrama, and storytelling. His mythic interests include Greek mythology, Native American story, European fairy tale, and Hindu epic literature. Ben holds his PhD in Mythological Studies with an Emphasis in Depth Psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute. Ben retired from the Seattle Fire Department after 28 years as a fire fighter and training coordinator for the Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) and Peer Support Team. He leads retreats for Veterans and First Responders, and has been adjunct faculty at Antioch University Seattle.Walton Stanley is a writer and storyteller. He has held a life-long interest in myth, story, and in the power of story to transform the paradigms and frames in which we live. Walton is currently working, with Ben Dennis, on an anthology of selected tales and myths that have been shared in the past 40 years of the Minnesota Men's Conference He has also completed a book, Following the Wrong God Home, Gilgamesh: The Foundational Myth of Civilization and the Roots of Ecological Collapse exploring th mythic roots of human exceptionalism, and our disconnection from the web of being as expressed in one of humankind's oldest extant written stories, Gilgamesh.I'd love to hear your comments.

We're now a month out from our next cohort of The Deep Masculine, a 3 month online journey for men that weaves together mythology, somatics, ritual & brotherhood. I invited my collaborator Deus Fortier to reflect on our initial journey which we launched earlier this year and completed in June.At its core, The Deep Masculine seeks to repattern men's relationships with eros - the primal force of life. Drawing from the mythopoetic men's movement and texts like Robert Bly's "Iron John" and "King, Warrior, Magician, Lover" by Douglas Gillette and Robert Moore, we offer a framework to help men rediscover a more intimate sense of aliveness.In "Iron John," Bly speaks about the Wild Man, the undomesticated male energy that holds the key to a man's soul. This archetype is deeply connected to the wisdom of the earth. Reconnecting with this energy is a recurring theme in our work.It's important to make a critical distinction between the "wild" and "savage" man. The former is deeply attuned and rightfully placed within the natural order, while the latter is dangerously disconnected. A savage man is willing to shoot up a shopping mall out of their own self-hatred poured forth as rage against others. This understanding is pivotal in redefining what it means to rewild in a positive, life-affirming way.Central to our inquiry is the archetype of The Lover. Modern men's work often prizes the King and the Warrior while neglecting the Lover, whose sensitivity and emotional depth are essential for integrated masculinity. “The Lover keeps the other masculine energies humane, loving and related to each other.” - Robert Moore & Douglas GiletteShadow work is also a significant part of the journey. Often, aspects of ourselves deemed unacceptable are relegated to the shadow. By integrating these parts, men can reclaim lost vitality and unlock deeper wisdom. This process includes exploring sexual shadow, addiction, and infidelity, and forging a pathway for healthier relationships.In the words of indigenous grandmother Pat McCabe, our ultimate vision is to “realign masculinity with thriving life.” This means developing the Lover's qualities such as courtship and appreciative consciousness, and fostering solidarity among men. If you are drawn to these themes, we invite you to apply for the next cohort beginning in late September. The application process itself is a valuable reflective journey. We're inviting a global brotherhood to gather around this fire. p.s. On Sept 4, I'm also hosting a free webinar An Introduction to Mythopoetic Masculinity. Open to all genders.

Hello and welcome back to Breakfast with Mom.  Today I want to tell you about a female journalist from the mid- 19th century.Nellie Bly, born Elizabeth Jane Cochran on May 5, 1864, in Cochran's Mills, Pennsylvania to Michael Cochran and Mary Jane Kennedy.  She was one of 15 children in her family, and her father was a wealthy landowner and businessman.  Bly attended boarding school for a time but had to return home due to financial difficulties after her father's death.She became one of the most influential journalists and social reformers of her time. Her career was marked by daring investigative reporting and a fierce commitment to exposing social injustices.Early in her career, Nellie adopted the pen name "Nellie Bly" after a popular Stephen Foster song. Her journalism journey began in 1885 when she wrote a fiery letter to the editor of the Pittsburgh Dispatch in response to an article titled "What Girls Are Good For." Resources: https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/106/nellie-blyhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nellie_Blyhttps://www.womenshistory.org/education-resources/biographies/nellie-bly-0https://www.britannica.com/biography/Nellie-Blyhttps://blogs.loc.gov/headlinesandheroes/2022/11/nellie-bly-blackwells-island/https://www.womenofthehall.org/inductee/elizabeth-jane-cochran/All the things: Music: "Electronic Rock (King Around Here)" by Alex Grohl https://pixabay.com/music/search/electronic%20rock%20kingLogo Artwork: Strawbeary Studios https://www.youtube.com/@StrawbearyStudios/featuredEpisode was researched, written and edited by ShanoaSocial Media:  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090200010112X (formerly Twitter): @breakfastmompodEmail: breakfastwithmompodcast@gmail.comWebsite: https://breakfastwithmompodcast.com/

(We missed, or maybe didn't say as obvious, that earth as a school child who is reciting the poem of spring perhaps makes a bit more sense in Sonnets to Orpheus; and the idea of song after long silence is particularly appropriate to Rilke, at least from what I remember of the story of the composition of the Duino Elegies.)Sonnet to Orpheus 1.21Rilke It's spring again, and the Earth lookslike a child who's worked to memorizehundreds of poems.

Die geskiedkundige mynspookdorp Kolmanskop het drie nuwe besienswaardighede wat Namibië se ryk erfenis en artistieke talent uitlig. Dit sluit in die wêreldbekende Ilford-galery, een van slegs drie ter wêreld, die Kolmanskop-diamantkamer en die Kolmanskop-boetiek. Phil Balhao, burgemeester van Lüderitz, sê die jongste toevoegings is 'n bewys van die dorp se groei. Hy sê hulle het met 'n informele verklaring vorendag gekom, "Bly nog 'n dag in Lüderitz", om die toerismepotensiaal uit te lig. Kosmos 94.1 Nuus het met Balhao gesels oor die groei in toerisme in die gebied.

Access The Iron John course here.A few years ago, I was invited to steward an online offering for the Rowe Center, based in Massachusetts.With the passing of Robert Bly, esteemed poet, activist, and father of the mythopoetic men's movement, I opted to weave a 7 week journey revisiting his seminal book Iron John, inviting an array of special guests to join me. The roster includes Stephen Jenksinon, Sophie Strand, Ramon Parish, Michael Gay, Philip Folsom, Shay Au Lait & Stefanos Sifandos.The course was a big success, and since then, I've always wanted to re-release it for more folk of all genders to access the insights & experience.I'm pleased to announce the course is now available.A few more words about Robert Bly & the story:As named, he is perhaps most well known for his retelling of the classic German fairy tale, which illuminated the inner world of men in such a way that seemed long absent from modern Western culture. This longing to be gathered into the mysteries of men and manhood, of a mythic masculinity, drew much contention upon its release in the early 90's, and has reverberated to this day.It wasn't until I watched the documentary '1000 Years of Joy' that I grasped the larger portrait of a man who had already amassed a respectful body of work before he turned to culture and gender. My love for Mr. Bly grew tremendously, as a blazing example of what could lie ahead in the later half of life, a glimpse of elderhood to a troubled time.Note: I also interviewed the films director Hayden Reiss which I've included at the bottom. Whether or not you've seen the documentary, it's delightful to hear his stories of meeting & collaborating with Bly.In 2022, the spiral has come around as a new generation discovers Iron John alongside an urgent crisis of masculinity. What might Iron John offer in the wake of #metoo, Artificial Intelligence, post-truth, multi-generational trauma, and biospheric breakdown?Despite some contemporary references that are dated, the book holds up as a vital to the conversation of manhood as it did in its day.At the time, Bly was criticized by some feminists for "blaming women" for men's troubles - and yet, that has never been accurate. He writes "This doesn't mean that the women are doing something wrong: I think the problem is more that the older men are not really doing their job."That's not to say there aren't blindspots (there are), and thankfully a number of additional perspectives have added to the polyphony of emerging masculinities.Here's my interview with Hadyn Reiss, the director of the Bly documentary 1000 Years of Joy. I highly recommend viewing the full film. Get full access to The Mythic Masculine at themythicmasculine.substack.com/subscribe

My guest today is Andrea Villa, a scholar, a mentor of men, a restorer of old practices and languages of the sacred.He has spent several years studying male initiation with indigenous peoples from India to West Africa to Native America, developing a unique understanding of gender as intelligence. His passion is to support men in regaining their erotic agency in love & relationships.In today's episode, we delve into the profound realms of Eros as a multifaceted force that transcends mere physical attraction, touching upon the realms of the spiritual, the creative, and the deeply personal aspects of human experience. Andrea shares his journey of being undone by Eros, highlighting its crucial role in our connection to the world. He describes the important differences between masculine and feminine energies, and advocates for the significance of adoration and devotion in the dance of partnership.Andrea also introduces the concept of erotic discipline, a practice of staying present with beauty to transcend the visible and touch the essence of our being. And he references Dante's Divine Comedy, the monumental epic from the Middle Ages, and the poet's adoration of Beatrice as a model for a love that can elevate our spirits to the divine.I'd love to hear what you think of this episode! Leave your comments below.Heads up: I'm inviting Andrew to offer an upcoming webinar in the next month. Stay tuned for details.LINKS* Official Website - Andrea VillaALSO, BEGINNING THIS THURSDAY: There's only a few days left to join the very first online cohort of The Deep Masculine, a 3 month journey for men. I wanted to offer further insight behind the inspiration for this offering, with its roots in the soil of a fairy tale:First published in 1990, Robert Bly's "Iron John: A Book About Men" is a key work in the mythopoetic men's movement.The book rides the story of Iron John, a fairy tale collected by the Brothers Grimm, as a framework to explore masculinity and men's issues. Throughout the book, Bly discusses the concept of "the deep masculine," a term he uses to describe an essential, positive aspect of mature masculinity that has largely been lost in modern society - due to cultural poverty, lack of rites of passage, and the absence of positive male mentorship.I've spoken on this thread in multiple conversations, including one with poet & author Sophie Strand in "Revisiting The Wild Man."​Mythopoetic men's work grew as a response to these challenges - and many men & organizations have picked up the torch from the first generation and the task they bequeathed to us.Now, it's also true the Wild Man archetype has become overly fetishized in many men's work spaces, with an emphasis on pushing back against the "domesticated life." (Think Tyler Durden in Fight Club, or Lester Burham in American Beauty).And yet, the Wild Man remains a mysterious and alluring presence for a deeper invitation into a lovership with life.After almost 5 years of inquiry, alongside mentors, elders & many conversations under The Mythic Masculine podcast, as well as numerous months in the creative cauldron, The Deep Masculine journey brings together the most effective elements we could muster for igniting the hearts & souls of men.We begin April 11.

 Inspired by the 1873 Jules Vern fiction novel, Around the World in 80 Days, Bly decided to make a quick trip around the world herself – with the goal of besting that 80 day benchmark. In 1889 Bly set out from Hoboken, New Jersey. She traveled light. Her only luggage was a small bag – and no change of clothing. Throughout the journey she used the transportation modes of the day as they were available; including trains, ships, horses, the rickshaw, sampan, and even a burro.Finally, she arrived where she began, In Hoboken – and set a world record. Snatching the glory from the fictional Phileas Fogg - who had held for 16 years the ‘fictional' record of 80 days. Nellie Bly completed the trip in 72 days, 6 hours, 11 minutes, and 14 seconds.Also See:https://www.biography.com/authors-writers/nellie-blyhttps://wams.nyhistory.org/modernizing-america/modern-womanhood/nellie-bly/https://guides.loc.gov/chronicling-america-nellie-bly We've Got A New YouTube Channel - Watch, listen and most definitely subscribe and share!

In a break from our regular programming, we turn the spotlight on an extraordinary race that gripped the world in the late 1880s. Think you know competition? Meet Nellie Bly and Elizabeth Bisland, two daring female journalists who embarked on a whirlwind journey inspired by Jules Verne's fictional odyssey. With little time to prepare and the eyes of the media—and an entire nation—watching their every move, these women weren't just challenging the clock; they were challenging societal norms. But that's not all. The tale takes a twist when Bly detours to meet none other than Jules Verne, adding a layer of meta to this already electrifying story. We also explore how these women's contrasting backgrounds colored their experiences, right down to their interactions with the everyday people and elites they met along the way. Stay tuned until the end for a sneak peek into our next episode featuring Nev March and her globe-trotting mysteries. Don't miss this ride; it's one for the ages.

THE THESIS: The Party is creating the most breakable people we have ever seen. It is almost literally the reverse of the therapeutic process used to help trauma victims regain a sense of themselves by re-integrating the many parts of their personalities. We have all the basis we need to help ourselves, our children and grandchildren resist this. In accepting Christ and living in The Holy Spirit, we have a complete defense.  THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  2 Corinthians 5:17 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, the new creation has come:[a] The old has gone, the new is here! How to Cultivate a Biblical Worldview; Scripture offers practical and accessible wisdom that enables us to consider everything we encounter in the world from a godly perspective – we call this biblical worldview. Here's how to cultivate it. Apologizing for the Gospel; Liberals demand not only that Christians apologize for individual evils, but the very message of Christianity itself. THE NEWS & COMMENT: The West needs to grow up; Robert Bly's'The Sibling Society' reveals how culture wars infantilise society BY PAUL KINGSNORTH I find it useful, in trying to parse the madness of that culture war, to see the time we are living in as what I have come to call a culture of inversion. The West's ongoing decline has caused its elites to lose faith in their cultural inheritance, and this loss of faith has now reached pathological proportions. As a result, the leading lights in Western society — the cultural elites, and sometimes the political and economic elites too — are dedicated not to upholding the cultural forms they inherited, but to turning them on their heads, or erasing them entirely. In the 50 years I have spent on earth, most of it in post-imperial Britain, that loss of faith has manifested everywhere. If you want to “get on” in Britain — which means to win the approval of the upper-middle class elite which runs the show — it has long been an unspoken rule that you cannot be seen to commit yourself to any of the pillars of the old orthodoxy which two World Wars fatally wounded and the Sixties counterculture decisively finished off. Patriotism, Christianity, cultural conservatism, sexual modesty, even a mild nostalgia for a vanished rural England or a love of once-canonical novels: all are more or less verboten, and the attitude towards them is rapidly hardening. Until recently simply giggled at or patronised, these kinds of views in the 2020s may see you labelled a “white supremacist”, or the more general but still-lethal “hater”. The old world is again running up like parchment in the fire, and nobody who wants to be part of the new one can be seen to defend it. . . .  This explains why, for example, a (white male) BBC editor would stand before an audience of mostly similarly pale-skinned people and explain that nobody wants to hear white men explaining things anymore. It explains why people would topple statues of long-dead slave traders whilst filming the whole thing on smartphones made by actual, living slaves. It explains taking the knee and decolonising the curriculum and cisheteronormativity and stale pale males and diversity training. All of this is not so much a desire for actual meaningful change as a giant rolling statement by those who control the levers of power in the post-Western West, a statement that says: We are the opposite of what we once were. We reject our ancestors and our history. We are now something entirely new — even if, as of this moment, we have no idea what. Bly in 1996: “People don't bother to grow up, and we are all fish swimming in a tank of half-adults. The rule is: Where repression was before, fantasy will now be … Adults regress toward adolescence; and adolescents — seeing that — have no desire to become adults. Few are able to imagine any genuine life coming from the vertical plane — tradition, religion, devotion.” BLOCK 2 [AUDIO] - Watch 80-year-old defend privacy rights in so-called “trans” locker room controversy An 80-year-old Port Townsend woman defended her right to privacy after encountering a biological male in a YMCA-managed shower facility. She was banned as a result. Julie Jaman retreated to the locker room after swimming laps at the Mountain View pool, which is managed by the Olympic Peninsula YMCA. She says she saw a “man in a woman's bathing suit” who was “watching little girls pull down their bathing suits in order to use the toilets in the dressing room.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
