500Rising is creating video, programs, blogs on personal agency & women's self-defense | Patreon

the last in the logic gremlin series is up on the YouTube channel. Well, sort of the last. As I was working on this series as a mental health exercise channeling my frustration someone close to me asked if I was going to tie this in to self-defense for #500Rising. Maybe. I'm thinking about it. If I do, it will be on the patreon site. If you're interested in what kinds of things are going up over there - you can take a peek here: https://www.patreon.com/500Rising

I have a t-shirt "ask me about my bruises" - ironic given the fundamental premise of this particular gremlin : ).

[04/09/20]   "The most alarming rhetoric comes out of the discourse between liberals and conservatives, and it's a dangerous waste of time because they're both right." Sebastian Junger

Our current collective political focus is accelerating a zero-sum game. A tragic win when the loser is tethered to the winner as opposites of a single strand continuum.

[03/31/20]   WOW! Thanks for the love everyone. 50 Likes in under 5 minutes of launching this.

[03/31/20]   🙋‍♀️Such an honor to meet, hang-out and train with people all over the planet. This page is launching so we can stay connected if you are interested in the teaching/writing/seminars etc. I'm up to both independently and in my work with Chiron Training, Violence Dynamics and Randy King Live. Figured this was a good way to stay connected without all the mundane stuff on my personal FB page. 😎

Dr. Tammy Yard McCraken

Great conversation with Sheena Williams of Krav Salem! This is a fun way to launch my new 'page' here in FB Land. Thanks for the opportunity to hang out with you Sheena - can't wait to hang out again..in the reals. https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=q-ve1FMI5Qo
