I saw this headline a few days ago:
And it made me wonder, why not stack functions, grow food under the solar panels? It’s happening elsewhere, and even has a name: AGRIVOLTAICS.
“Stack functions” is a permaculture principle referred to in my exopermaculture posts.
What is permaculture? PERMACULTURE IS RELATIONSHIPS. To one who practices permaculture, everything is related, above to below, inside to outside. This truth is in stark contrast to the disease of isolation/separation that, thanks to the scientistic “method” of analysis without synthesis, has thoroughly infiltrated our culture to the point where, as Mattias Desmet says, a hypnotic Covid spell has been successfully cast over billions of lonely, chronically anxious, disconnected souls by drumming out an endless blaring barage of fear, fear, F.E.A.R. (False Evidence Appearing Real) porn.
Permaculture. Permanent culture. Not the fake, incessant “progress” we were indoctrinated to aspire to, by lording over both nature and other human beings.
Permaculture. Permanent. Regenerative. The way nature herself works, where “all waste is food.” Trees take in CO2 and breathe out O2. Animals (including humans) breathe in O2 and breathe out CO2. We need each other. Not just within species, but across species.
The patterns of lung and tree are essentially identical, and mirror, for example, the branching of a river. Nature’s designs are “fractal.” Nature knows what she’s doing.
In nature’s world, we need each other. We are inextricably connected to all embodied beings, on all levels.
Which is what Masanobu Fukuoko (born 1914) in Japan discovered, when he was 25, and decided to leave his career as a research scientist, return to his family farm, and learn from nature. The results are documented philosophically in his 1978 book “One Straw Revolution.”
A few quotes:
Permaculture takes advantage of nature’s ways to “stack functions” deliberately as in, for example, this Fruit Tree Guild.
Another example of stacking, this simple structure:
Last night, we at Green Acres Permaculture Village gathered for a short meeting, wherein I mentioned that we’re going to receive six visitors on Thursday, coming in sets of two, at different hours, from near and far away. They all want to know how we are doing it. How to live a connected life, not just with each other, but with the earth under our feet. Our tiny, suburban, retrofit, intergenerational template for a new, interconnected culture — “growing community from the ground up” — has been an object of contemplation by others all along — as a sort of curiosity. But:
Ever since the Covid Con cast its poisoned spell over the world, our way of living and thinking and learning has become more and more compelling to more and more people. At this point, I’d say we average at least three “tours” each month, as people, near and far, begin to realize that the only way we are going to “defeat” the “virus” is to re-member our everlasting interrelationship with both each other and the whole of embodied life.
Joseph, one of our young podmates, mentioned that he would like to see a Green Acres podcast. I suggested that he spearhead it. “Gladly” he replied. Another young podmate, Aya, loved the idea, and added that all her friends want to live like we do, that the millennial generation know that this is what is needed. GOOD!
P.S. Both of these young ones are new arrivals, within the past three months. May they, may we all, both near and far, live long and prosper!
I agree, at least for those already disposed to NOT trust Big Gov, Big Pharma, Big Med (as in cartoon below). But what of those that DO still tend to trust these corrupt institutions, but who suffer from the free-floating anxiety that psychologist/statistician Desmet identified in the second video of the post I put up yesterday:
How to Comprehend the HYPNOTIC SPELL that has been cast over much of the world’s population?
Desmet claims that those with free-floating anxiety, in order to relieve their anxiety, have latched on to the “virus” as the thing to be afraid of. Thus, the spell. For these people, he said towards the end of that video — perhaps the best way to help them begin to break the hypnotic spell is to give them something REAL to fear: the fascist, globalist New World Order Great Reset. Agreed. That abomination is what the entire Covid Con is designed to bring in.
Ben’s cartoon take on the hypnotic spell.
The western world is undergoing an aggressive mass-hypnosis campaign designed to get us all to take a Covid vaccination. Many of us are resisting and are now being demonized. Arch liar Don Lemon said we should be shunned and harassed. Will Lemon soon be donning a Nazi uniform?
We are inundated with messages urging us to take the experimental injections. There’s an annoying Walgreen commercial in which a woman uses a relaxed and friendly voice. After talking about something else she casually adds something about getting your free Covid vaccine because ‘you’re ready.’ When I hear her say that I reply, “No, I’m not ready. I’ll never be ready!”
Such commercials are everywhere and I assume they’re being paid for by the pharmaceutical industrial complex, but there’s one thing that makes the Covid jabs stand out. Unlike ads for other drugs, they do not list the side effects of getting the Covid shot. If they did, it would be horrific. I can hear it now…”Side effects may include heart inflammation, stroke, or sudden death.” They won’t say that, but serious side effects have occurred. Thousands of died and millions have experienced serious side effects. The mainstream media liars will not mention a word about such dangers. They keep repeating over and over that the vaccines are ‘safe and effective.’ If they say those words often enough and from enough sources including celebrities, they know they will break down resistance and people will eventually get them.
Many people do not trust government, our media, or the pharmaceutical representatives. They know Dr. Fauci gave American taxpayer dollars to the Chinese communists to achieve ‘gain of function.’ He lied to Congress. He and Bill Gates belong in prison, but since they are part of the New World Order, they are untouchable. Many don’t like or trust Fauci or Gates, but still they get the vaccine for a so-called pandemic with a 99.7 percent survivability rate!
They globalist totalitarians also do not want you to question their hypnotism. Observe what Senator Pocahontas (Elizabeth Warren) said last week. She wants Amazon to ban books that criticize the vaccines. Many of those books are written by real doctors and scientists who are ringing alarm bells, but Warren says what they’re writing is ‘misinformation.’ She won’t say exactly WHAT is the misinformation, but it’s a tactic now being used by the vaccine pushers. Anything that questions the ‘official’ narrative is now misinformation. That’s that. No debate. No free speech allowed. Just shut up and take your shot and hurry!
They are attempting to control reality with their hypnosis. That is, they want humanity to accept a false reality and it can’t be questioned. This will lead to a very bad end.
I’m not offering medical advice. If you insist on having mystery liquids that have been proven to be ineffective against Covid inserted into your body, then that’s your call. As for me, I will never be convinced. The love of freedom breaks their hypnotic spell.

I have always been psychically allergic to television, so I’m personally ignorant of what goes on there. But a friend of mine who recently spent a night in a motel turned on the television and was astonished to realize that just about every ad was for some sort of pharmaceutical drug. Doing a tiny bit of research, I see that the Covid jabs are not advertised on TV? Is this true? And the reason mentioned is because unlike other drugs, which MUST list side effects, Covid Jabs don’t.
Vax ads don’t list side effects in other sorts of advertising either, however. Which, to me, makes that fact even more startling. Why the “exception”? Is it because of the “experimental status” of the vaxes? Or is that a convenient cover story.
Check this out. Another rabbit hole?

Hmmm. Might THIS meme break the spell of the normies?

I tend to agree, unfortunately.
