My friends from LA talk about LA as if the whole world knows everything about LA, that things must be compared to a scale of the best of humankind, the need to consume expands to fill the scale of what is presented as possible and then nudges that border of possibility outwards. My friends from small towns talk about what exists with a refreshing humility that it is not the best of the planet nor does it aspire to be, it is simply what exists.

I have been frozen to inaction organizing in LA because the scale of the problem is incomprehensible. In Eugene we just put a fridge on our porch to feed our neighbors because they were hungry.
