Restorative Justice & Reconciliation with Rev. Nora Jacob
Season 6, Ep. 7
•
Join us for a conversation with Rev. Nora Jacob on a better way to dispense justice than to subject offenders to a strictly brutal prison experience. A way that, by recognizing that hurt people hurt people, aims to empower, not just victims, but also offenders, to heal. This isn’t just showing mercy to incarcerated people, it significantly lowers the chances that they’ll end up back in prison after their release. That's a win for us all.

DIY Virtuality with Suma Puma and Aleya
01:34:44|Hey all, so I do another type of podcast with people from my past who I want to touch base with. We often talk about life stuff but there is always a sustainability link. In this episode we speak at length about adoption which many in the anthropocene view as their only way towards child-rearing when the future is so uncertain. We also talk about gender-based (ish) issues and pressures of capitalist worklife that can affect mental well-being in an already stressful world. Watch out for the fakeout ending!It's about burnout, stressful dating experiences, third culture kid stuff, growing up and youth around the world, adoption, and more over mojitos. Please enjoy!Recorded summer 2023.Website: https://fastfrwrd.infoMay 2026 Hunger Strike Game Plan: https://fastfrwrd.info/may-2026-hunger-strike-game-plan/Music (also on Fastfrwrd): https://aleya.bandcamp.comSolarpunk Presents Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/solarpunkpresents
May 14 2026 Hunger Strike Day 9 Update
36:18|Heyo! Today marks the last day of my hunger strike because I have to start my medication for my circulation and I need to take it twice a day with a meal. No getting around that and since I've been light-headed a lot it is somewhat urgent. In this final dispatch, I go into my history with food with a few pitstops about my travels, plastic and other topics. I then record having my first piece of food in NINE DAYS!! And make a salad and spiel, then taste test.All of this is to draw attention to the May 2026 Hunger Strike Game Plan if you guess the riddles to find the quests. Are you game?Links:Website: https://fastfrwrd.infoMay 2026 Hunger Strike Game Plan: https://fastfrwrd.info/may-2026-hunger-strike-game-plan/Music (also on Fastfrwrd): https://aleya.bandcamp.comSolarpunk Presents Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/solarpunkpresents

May 12 2026 Hunger Strike Day 7 Update
03:03|Hey! Today I talk about how easy this is except for going blind sometimes when I stand, about the US leadership bunker hidden by the diversion of the ballroom, and the treatment of immigrants being enough to get him out of office as cruel and unusual punishment. Plus: no borders, it's not our natural state. Links to the Quest below!Slight correction: In the case of Guatemala there was an attempt to send unaccompanied minors there.
