Thinking about memory, association, and identification

by jonl

A lesson in memory.

Phi Beta Iota:  Full reflections below the line.  Wait for the aha at the end.  God is what happens when we create community which is inherently in contradiction with our identifying deeply with anything other than God/community.  This is deep and worth swimming in.

DHS denies OWS eviction role

In response to internet rumor, DHS says, “Only in Portland”
