Congratulations - you have survived 2025! ...And good grief, what a year.
In 2025, we lost a lot of structure. A lot of foundation. A lot of trust.
But even the most senseless collapses leave in their wake room and reason to build. To grow. Puhpowee.
There is a great deal which needs doing.
The
biggest, richest few already offer their answer - just do everything
through us! All your time, all your attention, all your money, just
give it to us; our one-size-fits-all "solutions" will take care of
everything. Our algorithms, which cannot experience your world, will
describe your world for you.
A better answer has been right in front of us, in our own hands, all along. In fact, it IS our own hands.
When
we make and do things ourselves, when we work with each other, when we
strengthen our local communities - that's how we get the important work
done. That's how our real needs get addressed. That's how we express
and receive gratitude and appreciation. That's how we make human
business human again.
We know we're better off living and buying and reading and talking locally. Now, it's time to live it.
Let's build and nurture the foundations and the trust, ourselves. Together.
I've started my own business, aimed at working with other small, local businesses. I'm a software handyman, a Swiss-Army Geek.
If you or someone you know needs a nerd, you know where to find me!
