Greetings to the pissed and living. Thank you for listening to Up Is Down and double-plus-good thank you to those who support this work. This episode is maybe a bit different, maybe not, but I enjoyed creating it regardless. And I made it for you. So there.

The further we sail through the door the smaller the exit becomes in yet another inversion of action and outcome. I wonder what position you might be finding yourself in Plato's Cave?
Are you transfixed by the frightening shapes on the walls?
Are you the one making shadows before the flames?
Are you still confounded by the hunger games?

Days, weeks, months going by as the bloody chum is tossed from the boats every hour of every day to keep us fed and keep us coming back for more and more. Now the "heroes" of yesteryear are falling and we're all doing what we're supposed to do.... tweet about it, talk about it, make TV presentations about it. Doing everything except what is necessary to stop it. And that is to simply ignore it. And burn the mask. And those who wear them.

YOU CAN SEND A CHECK for ANY AMOUNT (via YOUR BANK with bill pay) TO:

P.O. BOX 354
345 Westfield Street
Silverton, OR 97381
(you can even go so far as to schedule recurring, sustaining donations with your own bill pay services via your bank and by doing this you cut out the paypal/mastercard middlemen)


VALUE-FOR-VALUE:

Consider the value you have for yourself as a free person with the ability to think for yourself. Next, consider the value you received from this production. Then consider the money value you'd place on that value and consider returning that value in the form of a donation to this production.

You can decide for yourself what amount feels right for you. You don't need a PayPal account, just the generosity and will to support something you value and believe in. It all helps.
This work is enjoyable but not easy, it takes time and costs money. Your support is needed and highly appreciated.

You will never find me on Youtube, they'd shut me down instantly, and it's only a matter of time before the podcast platform and hosting services become as compromised as the mainstream media. I will never accept sponsorships that require me to try and sell you bullshit products you not only don't need, but likely cannot afford anyway. I believe that Value-For-Value is indeed the future of free speech and expression, as anything else has already proved itself to be more than compromised at all levels; you can actually just sit back and watch monetized platforms disintegrate each and every day. That cannot happen with Value-For-Value, because only YOU decide what's valuable and only YOU decide how that is determined and returned. Now that's power!
