"C" stands for consciousness

Episode 68: Durable Communities

In this 68th episode of the C-Realm Podcast, we continue the conversation with Lorenzo of the Psychedelic Salon about the opportunities for community-building and a rapid change in human consciousness that arise in moments of crisis, then KMO talks with Bill McKibben, author of Deep Economy about the advantages of establishing more resilient and self-sufficient local economies.

You can find Bill McKibben's address at the Stanford Singularity Summit here:

I didn't know you were an ex-Transhumanist. I am as well. :-) I used to read Extropy back in the day when I went to the University of Washington.

I also knew a bunch of the Oracle Gathering people at one point (the Burners that I worked with at Microsoft).

Have you documented your Amazonian Rise and Fall here in a post or on a particular podcast? I've heard you touch on it occasionally but this was the first episode where I heard you say much at all about your former life.

Amazonian Rise and Fall

I left Amazon.com in the fall of '98, and I started this LJ account in early 2000, so the first couple years of this journal is an account of how I burned through that Amazon stock option windfall, but I don't remember writing any one concise post that tells the specific story I take you to be asking about.

Re: Amazonian Rise and Fall

I'll take a look. I just looked at 2001 but mostly it is QOTD at that point. I did find you referring to the journal of

rubylou (who mostly uses another journal now), who is one of my oldest and dearest friends.

I'm surprised that we never met when we both lived in Seattle for all of those years. I casually knew at least one other ex-Amazon windfall person (Ryan Grant) from working with him at Spry and from other mutual friends later. (If you know him, he relocated to San Francisco a few years ago as well).
