What kind if opportunities are being missed right now because of the current political and cultural situation, particularly in terms of careers?

I have a degree in geology, but the work requires remote living away from where I like to be. I'm more social than I like to admit.

I am doing IT for a health care company and I get good benefits, but its not enough. I want to create something. I want to do something that gets us out of this mess. Writing is a a slow way to address certain things.

The education system is where much of the rot is. Should attempting to join a school board be the next avenue?

Teaching is out of the question, the programs are ideological mills and the schools themselves require similar commitments now.

We need new schools. What of the potential to crowd fund new educational organizations? Change the school model. Offer daycare where needed for the schooling but also provide means to learn from the home online if that's better. Its too unfeasible to expect a new school program to exist.

Maybe private tutoring is a possibility. Concerned about CRT and other? I'd most recently love to hear what a young mind sees when first reading animal farm or 1984 and develop discussions around it.

I just know that whatever do it has to be meaningful and those things feel meaningful in a way that a 9-5 certainly isnt.

MindMaps

Attempting to organize the show's I am able to tune into and cite the sources that are mentioned in the videos on multiple topics and then add additional details where relevant and i find them.
Mind Maps, just a few. I had the idea to create one on climate change after the Maui disaster and show with with the wonderful badass Jessica Rose (she is just such a pleasant human being I'd love to meet her one day). That is not ready to share yet. These two have developed enough to let some eyes on them. Certainly not finished.

‘Now or Never’: The Immediate Origins of Putin’s Preventative War on Ukraine Geoffrey Roberts1

Journal of Military and Strategic Studies is down for some reason (domain not repurchased) and this important essay appears to be missing. Was finally able to find it on the wayback machine but I attached the PDF to simplify matters.
