Programmed Poverty - Social "Reform" in Philly 

Jesus paid the way to God. No amount of good works can ever be substituted for this.

You were in my neighborhood today. I live in the 600 block of Kater St. The building was built in 1865 as a home and school by the Methodist church

I’m only partway into this but I did attend Catholic schools so this is really interesting. Furthermore I’ve been examining David Ike‘s theory that we are already living in a simulation it’s just that they want to create the meta-verse which would be a simulation within a simulation and sort of nested labyrinth. If this is true then how are our spirits lured into this realm? I would say that there were some deception and that this round was a really nice place and we were lured In somehow and we may have been infinite spirits exploring an infinite universe before. The courtyard story is a parallel here. I’m not saying that this is the truth I’m just taking a look at this

Really awesome! I am learning and growing and intrigued ... and feeling the connection to my work xo

A lovely and interesting walk & talk through past and present. Historic projects are necessary to illuminate current events. Important to keep in mind: the evolution of consciousness. Socialism (as well as capitalism)in the past was quite different from what we are experiencing now (now we are dealing with a kind of transcended amalgam of socialism and capitalism, informed by hi-tech), especially after its corruption by Leninism and Stalinism. Basically materialistic on its thick surface at least. If one moves towards spiritual questions one needs to slow down a lot. Especially if through such a view one wants to understand the subnatural electro-magnetic machine realm. Fascinating thoughts about the Settlement Movement , Robert Owen, Toynbee and Jupiter(the tiles:"spellcasting" indeed and a distraction possibly) notebooks etc. ... What we encounter now is mostly hijacked, corrupted and counterfeited ideas of the past. Some of them originally good, worthwhile discussing, some bad even then. Thank you for your thoughts and enthusiasm. P.S. Perhaps of interest: the biography of Robert Owen's daughter Rosamond Dale Owen Oliphant Templeton

Also it’s probably good that your post pone your visit to California for another reason. Because we have experienced prolonged drought things are really dry right now it’s just not very nice. If you come in the spring hopefully we will be blessed with a couple of rain storms and things will be green and pretty and there will be an abundance of beautiful natural materials together such as wildflowers acorns and so forth.

Kater St was called Bedford St. The location was called the Bedford Mission

In guessing you may explore Amgen in Thousand Oaks. Let’s do Explora in Los Angeles obviously in Northern California Silicon Valley and so forth

Programmed povert - interesting semantics. Very much so.

This area was called the poorest and most dangerous block in the city. Interesting!

Great exploring of reality, Alison. You are a treasure. I would add that the artists of the last 100+ years, and ongoing today, that are best pushing back against this anti-human thing, are in Blues, Folk, Rock N Roll, Punk, Country, etc, et al. My guess is that 80% of ALL musical artists, and their behind the scenes team mates, are silently winning this battle. Keep on going, your work is amazing and irreplaceable. You, yourself, are definitely a beautiful conduit to the Divine, the Mastermind.

Hi if you are open to meeting up let me know. I am in South Jersey. I really want to branch out with people on the same page. Thanks!

I don't particularly have a 'backyard', like many refugees, but I do have one in the sense of my profession. I'm horrified at how passive and uncritical it is in the build out of the metaverse. Here's an example on RU-vid: "Biennale Architettura 2014 - Conversazioni / Talks (Architecture and Technology)" - BiennaleChannel. (Can't post the link without it being erased) Architects have known they are increasingly irrelevant since bankers and builders can work together and bypass them and they seem to be dealing with this by capitulating to pixel land, the only field that will still have them. We were really doomed when IT wrestled the word ''architecture'' from us a few decades ago.
