2020 Summary 3/3

The best advice I have is start growing your own food. Look up “Cuban food crisis” on YouTube. Potatoes will grow in a bag of straw with a handful of soil thrown in, or in compost. Hardy spinach survives winter in Wales and self-seeds if you let it. It’s also slugproof. Anything else is a bit more work. 

I’m sure you have some space at all available somewhere for starting off a home grown food “project” - this might become more important than people realise. 

2020 has taught us survival mindset. In the back of my mind is a constant concern “covid19 is only a fire drill” - fill a cupboard with couscous, it’s cheap and easy, better than pasta. 

We had decades of knowing we were doing things wrong and we didn’t collectively change because we didn’t individually change. If we don’t do it now we won’t make it. It’s that simple. 

There is good news. We’re learning responsibility, compassion, accountability, ecology, it’s exciting. This is all part of the upshift. 

The zombies/sheep’s - they put chasing money first. That’s the sickness. 

“Just doing my job” 

“have to do it for work” 

= not good enough. 

That’s the death cult. 

We literally have a very powerful death cult controlling our lives. 

Break away from that.

“Fucking hell. You've basically summed up what I've been thinking. Small things have led to this. For example, I work for the council. Literally a few months before march every council worker who needed to input any data was given a laptop. We started working from home. How convenient. The zombie reference is outstanding.”
