Here I'm trying to look back and forward, and give a sense of the marvel those huge herds were. ## [AGI & Chardin’s nooshere: Exploring the big questions.](https://toms-musings.com/2026/08/18/agi-chardins-nooshere-exploring-the-big-questions/) _2026-08-18 · corbettirp · Tom's Musings_ “There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy.” Hamlet In my prior blog, as you may recall, I was distracted … a rather common state for me. I had intended to muse on the practical, yet most disturbing, issue of our public debt leading to the collapse \[…\] ## [Rewilder Weekly #117 🦬🌳🐺🌞🌍](https://rewilderweekly.substack.com/p/rewilder-weekly-117) _2026-08-17 · Daniel Martin Eckhart · The Rewilder Weekly_ Welcome to the latest edition of the Rewilder Weekly. ## [Meet the Rewilders: Kriton Arsenis](https://rewilderweekly.substack.com/p/meet-the-rewilders-kriton-arsenis) _2026-08-16 · Daniel Martin Eckhart · The Rewilder Weekly_ "Meet the Rewilders" is a new series that brings you people engaged in the rewilding movement from across the globe. ## [And the Winner Is …?](https://toms-musings.com/2026/08/12/and-the-winner-is/) _2026-08-12 · corbettirp · Tom's Musings_ Over the past couple of days, my head had been swimming with ideas about issues like national and international debt. For example, the U.S. debt is between $40 and $45 trillion depending on how you count things while global debt among all nations is somewhere around $300 trillion. Those are damn big numbers.

The other evening, I got a message from Facebook that I had violated something about their esoteric community standards … their foundational rules and regulations. In some ways, this is familiar territory for me … being punished by Facebook. But first, some \[…\] ## [Rewilder Weekly #115 🦬🌳🐺🌞🌍](https://rewilderweekly.substack.com/p/rewilder-weekly-115) _2026-08-03 · Daniel Martin Eckhart · The Rewilder Weekly_ Welcome to the latest edition of the Rewilder Weekly. ## [profullstack on Ko‑fi (Sponsored)](https://crawlproof.com/a/NR3SXpHYjVxL) _2026-08-03 · **Sponsored**_ Open the creator's Ko‑fi page. ## [Meet the Rewilders: Clare McTaggart](https://rewilderweekly.substack.com/p/meet-the-rewilders-clare-mctaggart) _2026-08-02 · Daniel Martin Eckhart · The Rewilder Weekly_ "Meet the Rewilders" is a new series that brings you people engaged in the rewilding movement from across the globe. ## [Weak and short-sighted, the Church of England votes against nature recovery](https://rewilderweekly.substack.com/p/weak-and-short-sighted-the-church) _2026-07-31 · Daniel Martin Eckhart · The Rewilder Weekly_ As everyone else hoping that the twin crises of biodiversity loss and climate change are finally taken seriously and significantly mitigated against, I was disappointed when I heard that the Church of England (CoE) voted against committing to restoring 30% of its land. ## [Religiosity and Region.](https://toms-musings.com/2026/07/30/religiosity-and-region/) _2026-07-30 · corbettirp · Tom's Musings_ Remember those hucksters selling salvation on television. That phenomenon probably started with Oral Roberts when I was just a kid. In fact, he started his radio ministry way back in 1947 and his TV outreach sometime in the mid 50s. Frankly, I don’t remember him (other than a vague sense of his appearance), though I \[…\] ## [Rewilder Weekly #114 🦬🌳🐺🌞🌍](https://rewilderweekly.substack.com/p/rewilder-weekly-114) _2026-07-27 · Daniel Martin Eckhart · The Rewilder Weekly_ Welcome to the latest edition of the Rewilder Weekly. ## [What is happening to Lincoln’s party?](https://toms-musings.com/2026/07/23/what-is-happening-to-lincolns-party/) _2026-07-23 · corbettirp · Tom's Musings_ Not long ago, I came across the following quote. “I do not want to see the Republican Party ride to victory on the four horses of calumny … fear, ignorance, bigotry, and smear.

We looked forward to enjoying the 4th of July fireworks display being launched from the small eponymous town located along the water’s eastern shore.

Recently, however, I heard something disturbing.

During the gilded age, when robber barons accumulated obscene fortunes while laborers worked 70 pr more hours per week for subsistence wages, men like Rockefeller, Carnegie, and Morgan oft were celebrated as virtual \[…\]
