Tremendous gratitude to group members who helped get recent overdraft amounts covered. It included major survival-level bills that were paid, and literally, lives that are saved in the frame of a few days — because those payments got into place.
That crazy scary hell funnel that is missing income and bank overdrafts and stacked overdraft fees… that’s one of the worst horror movies.
And it’s rampant reality.
How can this happen? You might have an inkling. It may even have happened to you — and plenty of people block out the memory, it’s so awful.
Whether you’ve experienced it or not, it might be a blank spot in your mind; really, how can this happen?
Blocking it out… or not knowing about it in the first place… can make it rather tricky to prevent that very thing from happening in the future.
So we do what we can to make helpful words. We remember together.
And then we change the landscape together.
It starts by seeing clearly — the thing we’re transforming.
How can this happen?
Well, imagine if you were severely injured and couldn’t find non-exploitative paying work; and the people around you who wanted to help you… were severely injured and couldn’t find non-exploitative paying work.
Many people think there will be some kind of support if any little bit of that could ever happen; and many people find out there actually isn’t.
(This is why we anchor the powerful collaborative resources of the Intuitive Network.)
Why are we losing so many families to this funnel of destruction?
Crises of compounded survival costs and bank overdrafts are a consequence of economic exclusion…
…where a primary monetary currency is enforced as the means of wealth exchange in a context of purposefully-created resource scarcity…
…where certain work is paid for at scale…
…and other work is designated non-valuable.
And, perhaps interesting…
…it’s the most human, life-honoring, relationship-tending work that’s been so commonly designated non-valuable.
It often seems like you can’t get paid to really strengthen your community directly.
You can for sure get paid to sell toxic products-or-processes to your community… and to extract the vitality of the community in order to enrich external interests.
Funny.
No, I mean really. It’s really funny.
Because so many of us were injured by toxic exposures and weakened by extractionist resource scarcity — and that’s why we couldn’t find non-exploitative paid work anymore.
Laughing, laughing. What’s the phrase?
ROFLMAO. 😆😭🤣
It is, in fact, a great way to pressure populations; to exhaust and traumatize them; and make them easier to influence, sell badly-made baubles to, coerce, and control.
It isn’t new news that those tactics are widely used in the business world today.
Looking it in the face, whew.
It’s an experience.
You might have noticed, though, that around here… it’s not so much a conundrum.
We keep saying it, and we mean it.
We’d like to be very clear on this point.
Wait, what? Yes.
I know, it may take you some time to process the bluntness of it.

What a wild foray!
yes, yes, yes it's like a layer of semi opaque transparency gets lifted, you see the architecture underneath and with that perception, a different experience of your self arises. nice capture.
