Everything feels so positive after a walk with the dogs
Sun, 2008/11/23 - 4:17pm — Benjamin Melançon
(Usually just dog, Zelda, but Rusty is ours for safekeeping while Grandpa is traveling the world again.)
And I have fantastic friends a lot of whom were over last night.
But in the meantime life must be gotten in order.
Working more effectively.
Launching PWGD.
Sleeping and exercising and eating well.
Having a life worth sharing with someone full time, and finding that person.
Not so hard, is it?
I make a living doing web design and development with a great team
The Agaric Design Collective
I'm trying to make possible a worldwide nonviolent revolution for justice, liberty, and making more good things doable.

America touts itself as the land of the free, but the number one freedom that you and I have is the freedom to enter into a subservient role in the workplace. Once you exercise this freedom you’ve lost all control over what you do, what is produced, and how it is produced. And in the end, the product doesn’t belong to you. The only way you can avoid bosses and jobs is if you don’t care about making a living. Which leads to the second freedom: the freedom to starve.
