Always choose peace in the midst of Chaos.  Don't fear volatility or Change embrace it! The Earthseed Rosary The Earthseed Rosary is a meditative tool designed to guide practitioners through the core tenets of Earthseed, fostering mindfulness, collective purpose, and adaptation in the face of Change. Each bead or segment invites reflection on an essential concept within the faith. The Bead of Change: Contemplate the ever-present nature of Change. Recite: “God is Change. I accept the shifting flow of life.” The Bead of Paradox: Reflect on holding chaos and order together in your heart. Recite: “I embrace both uncertainty and the work of building security.” The Bead of Water: Consider water's adaptability and strength. Recite: “Like water, I will shape and be shaped, persistent and yielding.” The Bead of Knowledge: Honor the pursuit of truth. Recite: “Knowledge is sacred. I seek, I question, I learn, and I adapt.” The Bead of Community: Focus on radical interdependence. Recite: “My survival is bound to the collective. We thrive together.” The Bead of Hyperempathy: Feel the shared joy and pain of others. Recite: “I am open to the suffering and hope of the human collective.” The Bead of Destiny: Envision the future Earthseed strives to build. Recite: “We shape God and are shaped in return. Together, we forge our destiny.” This rosary can be repeated as a meditation or used in communal gatherings, each bead prompting group reflection on how the tenets are lived out in daily actions. The sequence embodies Earthseed's demand for active engagement and adaptability, reinforcing the moral and spiritual foundation of the community. A Trickster can take many forms, for good or not.  The seemingly random nature of "God as Change" highlights that change isn't always good or predictable. Sometimes, it takes on a destructive, trickster-like form—as seen in the societal collapse, environmental disasters, and the violent conflicts of Octavia Butler's post-apocalyptic Parable novels. The Trickster's lessons are about adaptability, outsmarting a rigid system, and using cleverness to survive. This is precisely what Larkin, Lauren's kidnapped daughter, Natasha's Collab community, Lauren Olamina, and her followers must do to survive. The trickster's chaotic nature reflects the world's collapse, and the trickster's cleverness is a core quality of the characters who manage to survive it. The key to getting to to getting to the stars is survival and strength here on Earth. Because in the words of a character in the book  "We can't continue to F@@K up here on Earth and expect to take this same s@@t out there.  We won't even get back out there until we figure it out down here. Ain't nobody trying to be on the stuggle bus in zero gravity and minimal atmosphere. Ain't nobody got time for that. "Phoenicia Baxter, former MIT mechanical engineer professor.

In this Technology Reseller News podcast, Publisher Doug Green spoke with Mark Murphy, CEO of Greenlight Networks, about the company's definitive agreement to acquire FastBridge Fiber, a move that strengthens Greenlight's growing presence in the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions. Greenlight Networks, a fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) provider, currently passes over 300,000 homes across New York, Pennsylvania, and Maryland. With the FastBridge acquisition, the company will add approximately 75,000 homes in Pennsylvania and Buffalo to its expanding footprint. “This acquisition is about building on strengths, not replacing them,” said Murphy. “FastBridge brings tremendous sales and marketing depth that perfectly complements our network expansion and local market strategy.” Murphy emphasized that Greenlight's mission extends beyond delivering high-speed broadband—it's about transforming how communities work, live, and play. “When we enter a community, it's game-changing,” he said. “These are often places that haven't had true broadband competition or gigabit speeds. We focus on partnership and being part of the local fabric, not just another provider.” The acquisition also supports Greenlight's ambitious goal to reach half a million homes by 2026, accelerating its growth through strategic integration and regional expertise. Beyond residential customers, Murphy noted the company's ongoing collaborations with carriers and enterprise partners, including Crown Castle, Zayo, Cogent, and Lumen, to deliver cost-effective connectivity and fiber access across markets. Greenlight's customer-first approach has earned national recognition—Consumer Reports named it the top internet service provider in the U.S. for two consecutive years, reflecting the company's commitment to performance, value, and customer care. “At the end of the day, we're not just delivering broadband—we're delivering opportunity and reliability to communities that need it most,” Murphy said.
