Hi! You may most likely know me as co-editor of ActivityPub, the decentralized social network message which is more-than-likely how you're actually receiving this message! https://www.w3.org/TR/activitypub/
Other things you may want to know:
- I'm a user freedom activist (free software, free culture)
- I post a lot of leftie politics stuff
- Expect lots of tech posts around lisp, decentralized network stuff, obscure-ish programming history
I met a very nice and very funny transfemme lesbian couple last night, and one of them said something that has lodged itself in my brain:
"The way I tell whether something is a transphobic / queerphobic slur is if it cis dude says it to me and I get scared and a trans person says it to me and I get turned on"
@kingu_platypus_gidora
The bit at the end was crazy like an exhaust
@conatus
Probably lack of garden or being brave to somehow get involved with one. Plus easier / more people watching :)
@tagomago
Anyone know how long posts are there for? Quite sure it's not a forever thing and probably shouldn't be...
@fisunov
If you don't mind, please... delete and re-draft your message
and a this yewtu.be link
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=5ZZmmwvDW8I
(it's 0 tracking links and filters adverts, so 0 adverts)
Thanks for your consideration -
let me know what you think (again adding the link that's all)
This allows people a choice than to allow laziness and takes responsibility ourselves [not leaving to chance]. It's not always good to expect others to know things without showing them the way, again keep link, just add..
Thanks again.
@PawelK WTF bro lol
Other people can help each individual ask another to reconsider things with logic and reason.
And if it isn't with logic and reason and their heart isn't in it properly then they also remind us what isn't the way, or much less so...
No need trying to put ourselves always in between that to make it so personal. If it's heard, move on or choose which way you're going for without losing your cool.
***Hold your line***
Methodology does work long term.
@leo "...NOT BY FORCE. WITH FAITH"
I promise to give you / pay you back using in my energy, from favours / chores / whatever near or far.
- FreeSchool
That is what we need to start with. Bit by bit approach and small agreements
Some of us already give and can continue. Please don't overgive also but moderate by talking and make it fit using brain power and faith in freeing each other (away from money-only things).
Use money AND something mixed in with money *diluting it* all the while, reducing money / bank effects while siphoning back from industry's previous success (gained by all of us) and getting better culture in return (sharing people) in the future...
IF YOU ARE WITH THIS VIBE... FAVOURITE THIS POST.
Anytime this makes sense favourite it. Please DM any point as I wish to include a way for everyone to be satisfied / agreeable / flaxible.
By still using money right now we have less over time. but rather than 0 money we actually use it slowly and then have more of a cultured workforce in exchange...
we reverse polarity, we use our own kind (I believe there are those that don't have faith in humanity or believe in themselves)
Let whatever from that happen better than price wars and people losing / getting priced out at the end by the empires that coral and have us land-trapped, not able to pay bills this winter / every winter. Let us not fund greed...
There is opportunity to go to mountains and perhaps do the same while working together but whatever you do away from city or within it, slowly changing morals and selling out less is the way. Realise starvation is on the horizon but also their method and in the country you can just about survive on food + little money, I am proof of that.
Together some of us can cover others (at least 1 other) and try this like couchsurfing was and other hosting sites provide other to work away MUCH MORE CHEAPLY while discomforts are harmonising ourselves and accepting others...
All ways lead to starvation using their ways... so one might gain better chance punching forward together using *another way at the same time*...
RISE UP MORALLY
Right now paying rent is a loss all around so I start by suggesting sharing accommodation (some with money and some without)
Get one person in and set basics even if other have to pay for food - SAVE THEM MONEY, TALK ABOUT IT
- SATISFY YOURSELF BY HELPING THEM... AND ASK OUR ECO-SYSTEM FOR WHAT YOU NEED
I;ll help using whatever skills for the right causes to snowball that
And don't force each other too hard or even yourself - it's for us to take on shoulder for the years of cheating that happening.
Talk, argue, then let it rest... Solve and move forward. You're not going to get any decent manure from banks to really grow something properly to give the future apart from debt.
PLEASE RE-READ THIS.
@RustyStriker
My own note:
- I like without hands - give more primitive / mutoid aspect of it!
- flame is maybe not so visible anyway
:)
Saving Water and Real Climate Justice = Personal Justice / Actions
A bit of a personal anecdote. This daily truth may shock you but it's not intentionally for that but just how I found justice and the mindset in finding justice *yourself*
TL;DR Pissing on dishes saves you water
NON-TLDR
What I mean here is that when you take something seriously you can save water and demand a lot less on a climate-ignorant system with small actions and put it in your own hands (whatever you choose never mind how I do it)
(btw you rinse after with clean water so it's just a small thing)
You choose how you do Climate Change and Justice but for me, living in a hut, I realised I pee in a tall jar ( even more convienient than opening door and going outside to pee) and just using this warm water to do 1st rinse and in 2nd bowl already prepared I cleaning my hands after. Then I throw things outside to allow other things to have it (and really doesn't smell as it dries / rain does wash it regularly)
Simple things in your own hands count. The genius is how you do it and discover it.
Not even need to look much further than that if you have the will to do justice in whatever way possible.

@Cleisthenes How different?
Very 'Efficient' systems seem too hard on people and cutting out the human part deliberately for very little human gain in the end...
Very 'Efficient' systems seem too hard on people and cutting out the human part deliberately for very little human gain in the end...
----------------------
This applies even in communication itself while people might not see or claim it's fault of tech - really past that is the ADDITIONAL human creation of control added to all tech (the human controllers) which means not having a voice or choice by design - if you can see not having that tech or making it conditional, then you can quickly see why all establishment structures tend to go for it! This usage //disables// people and their voices as well as enabling them conditionally or forcing them into deeper unclear stuff...
Examples:
- the usefulness of talking with zoom etc can out-weigh even free justifications of using it..
- as we see in text only support or waiting on the phone for 40mins there's not point with similar mindset lurking in the background and not being transparent (with or without tech, but 10x worse with tech!)
"Please hold the line" (that took 100's of years to develop! not useful in those hands)
NOBODY else will do some of the responsibility to check things for you (aside from a few nice individuals who are aligned similarly to you)
Efficiency can just promote more of the same running around and struggling even if something gets better or faster (we tend to respect things less). So that's why the hard work and world building I see for us to do - NOBODY else will do it for you that doesn't catch up with us in the end.
Building their own empty empire which run through much of everything now is to be respected and accordingly checked at each action.
@sgryphon Paying / subsidizing for habit change is the typical way forward and that seems to be the case here
Prices can change later (after habits and practice of new-tech is formed, acceptance of it is important and post like yours to confirm it, Maybe...
The important first step is to make it accessible (usually finance despite other logic) and then transitioning totally to gain market capture.
Examples:
- Internet was suddenly free in India with a sim card (when internet was expensive almost unheard of there, no broadband etc but suddenly skims to mobile internet- how come?)
But also in many other things free is just a capture point...
Consider it like 'free water installation' in Africa for capturing waterpoints and villages thereafter.
- Personal example was I got a free mobile just by opening a bank account (my own experience as example - was a good strategy as people flocked to using / creating accounts)
(Just saying this examples so it's not just 'American' or 'African' examples of market/resource/people captures)
Many examples of free or incentivised introduction and then cashing in after via
- subsidizing (public taxes of course)
- top-down decisions what make it happen
This is more the reality I feel to cheat the idea anything is bad or same-same...
Helps move people on to something better (for government it helps).
Not claiming anything too anti- or *all is bad*, but *probably* more of the same-same historically of for more than price reasons.
@fisunov This is where I see converting the culture is important - so the admin here or there also doing the educating.
Of course it can be diluted but the whole 'another platform' holds the same points so although Gargron or others can't see point of non-commercial links inside their own system undoing it all, eventually they will see the point / feel the profit-creation ! (it eventually this FROM OUR VIEW or EVEN POSITION FROM THEIR POINT OF VIEW THEY WILL COME FOR YOU / DRAG NET / FILTER US ALSO!)
So for that mini-example adding an alternative https://yewtu.be might be a step too far (not banning youtube.com links just a adding or asking in an option to filter via individious links) or even attract too much attention but either way the principle of using / tracking / harvesting Mastodon users is still there... and will catch up (they won't allow us not to use their systems and it's proven!)... maybe bad example but moving on...
I'd like to know the technical problems apart from incompatibilities which I feel have / will be ironed out (or enough still to do text which is the main part, even without formatting lol)
Even fake stuff I don't see as bad MORE than keeping focus on the positive unless it's harming u$ like the youtube links example with millions of clicks... FROM MASTODON and nobody seems to this their responsible in purely offering replacement or even just added alternative as a auto-option... basically bad work is yes bad work and alignment is inevitable (from our wants or opposition clamping down like email providers being more and more banned from non-commercial addresses)
I've suggested and continue to suggest bringing the culture up even from small pool as anything else is too defensive or feeding the rich (even from Mastodon)
Let's not make it clearly us vs them... but acknowledge it / act slowly towards limiting damage / profit and data harvesting every day from our users (even if we expect them to add filter or addon to do all the work themselves- IT'S OUR DESIGNERS RESPONSIBILITY too.
Say more how Mastodon is not working - thanks
Capturing and Reasoning is my proficiency*...
Finally I realise what to call what I do a bit more better so just letting you know if you want to capture or reason anything... I'm at your disposal for most things...
Took my a while to realise or spell it out but the capture of reasons / sentiments / psychology I can smell and because it is what helps us all in future (if you're human)... this makes it very useful to us all.
Was kind of hard to say. Welcome to rephrase it also (especially looking at my profile posts or profile media )
Now I realise how I'm awesome in categorisation of some kind (if we agree we are all more that what means the eye but have main weapons like pokemon)
Why capture and reasoning?
To spot or indicate problem things AND toward VERY healthy things very specifically... in short growth, this includes growing of minds...
And all you need to do is polish this good work, customise it for yourself and apply it to all that is around you.
[ I might update this in future but a mini-celebration there. ]
------------------------------
* Notice I don't use profession but proficiency (my own estimation I admit) but as relativity not connected to being paid work but actually autonomic proficiency which has less of the structural construct that actully defined quite rigid what making you a professional means (limits or makes only snipers from people more than universal soldiers).
So though I don't mind or doubt 'more clever' people the MOST important thing and what is lost by profession is that going too deep or 'dictatorial' side of their structure (ultimately government if you trace it all back)
Again don't take this as all professions or jobs allowed are bad and for profit almost only first (and then some good stuff after) IT'S JUST THIS SUITS ME FINE and financially I found ways still aligned (I don't claim to be out of the financial construct while being born into it, but I don't accept it or hierachy as much as I fend it off tooth and nail).
And a profession I see can be dangerously like some that cuts down trees or programs not knowing where their code goes but 100% almost always will be found by those exploiting it for more money as they have resources to expand anything and everything. Yay everyone code more!...
but without seeing the rest of the forest it's dangerously digging more or allowing others. So we have enough of what we need (if people wanted to us it wisely, it's us that is the Justice not some magic device or job).
It's about changing / opening our minds...
I give people time and I thnk that's the difference to others online who really don't have or give time and give up on people really easy... (don't mean to be competitive, no put-downs, just I more dedicate time to others and weave us together).
So you don't even have to read any of this because EVERYTHING needs time + communication and without that a lot is broken and even less human even if it's for good...
Just follow and put notifications on to TEST MY FEED.... the rest below is just over-info for most poeple.
Open Learning School or Freedom University...
------------------------------------
A lot you might be at length and depth, but if you're easy about it, you can take the best and even take me along to understand life with others!
To learn and do everything practically! (this is a practical living (and gets stuff done as much as we can).
Fan of Fediverse!
Quick Look - peace-loving work / services:
█ Mini-Podcast (few mins each, examples below)
█ Picture remixes / video remixes
█ Lessons without being too 'teacher' about it. Teacher has teeth for eliminating doubt.
█ Food for thought as gentle soul also.
█ Unique ideas - often impossible for professionals (they are burdened by financial repsonsibility and therefore associational risk in saying things). I'm more diverse and occasionally direct (with respect, though I don't shy away from reminding people).
█ Not too embarrassing to say "I don't know" but can still chase things.
█ More responsive than casual users usually because people think having 'job' is enough in life. I say it's not! And even faimily is of no use if it's only getting worse (in everything!).

I help people create audio / edit educational audio / podcast / music / visual short videos / transcript text
+ I like to add a bit humour while being quite strict in my own politics (opinions) but open / inviting for others to tell me what I should do if they can explain more than just a short comment (I don't mind it's healthy for me at least if you have logic and can stand yourself explaining).
FreeSchool is about Learning towards Freedom (which is about Uniting everyone slowly, even "1 by 1"... Easy with The Fediverse!
Not virtue signalling here only, but practise of EVERYTHING as we go. Judged by getting in contact (many have) and having courage to communicate (or seeking it from others is ok, EVERYONE needs a bit of courage or hand-holding to make big personal changes). Who else is there for example if family doesn't understand?
Learning and watching can be good and staying out of people's way, BUT better is doing something every day and helping each other with some tough decisions / lessons... and then being bold enough to do them. 1... 2... 3 that is all that's needed.
Let my posts do most of the talking.
Put me on notification (click bell that appears after follow ia accepted) and if it's not interesting switch off after and tick me off the list of potential people to follow daily!
Media version of my posts here... open link for later... good for visual scrolling version and judge me on that I don't mind...
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
I'm usually impressed with my media gallery as I work on posts a lot usually or hit the "Aha!" moments and capture it (other people may forget it for years, not me!).
Freedom is about *making it work together* better like using #Mastodon on the #Fediverse daily for better platforms with more #bestpractices and 'best' people to help us which I kind of collect here and
when it's #1 comment!
I am measurably better because I reply and stick to everything to the end(!)
No cancelling friendship suddenly without saying why or being moody!
Freedom is to Learn, Respect and Love eventually and ️to Unite!
Practically it's also like Tetris - add yourself to the puzzle and watch it all happen...
█▬▄▀ ╚ ╦ ╝╠╧
talk more on Mastodon and the Fediverse and puzzle it all out using better ways to less use the other bad commercial / extractive people...
L£$$ of the less caring people like the ggl's / ytb / gmail / mainstream communication points etc who are offering lots of space 'free' and it's not free of peace there.
We GIVE to real people (TIME NOT JUST MONEY).
There's no buy-in solution - we have to make it with selotape or whatever we have - it's not shameful to bring whatever you have.
FreeSchool is terminology put together from many good things from past (coined in 1950's/60's. I / we become it eventually through being.
It's a movement for Freedom via Learning it all (learning self included and less active stuff) and doing the learning *together* --> https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Freeschool.
I encourage you warmly to participate with me as a I have time and then spiral out naturally to others (we are part of humanity and so naturally a sort of evangelism or ecological pyramid of life as we choose to spread lesser suffering while accepting consuming is part of it).
Less-commercial in orientation (in everything) and happy to think / work for free.
Naturally you will hesitate if someone is sure of themself or ok standing on shoulders what we copy do the best from humbly but not too sterile either.
Based on just emotions ruins almost everything, which seems very common - very ungraceful - so don't disconnect... do it gracefully at least!
A "school" of thought is here you can interact / ask and make best together as free/low cost as possible.
Even a bad answer you can take best from (of course I won't know all your situation when I suggest something but I don't need to answer 100% - you also need to help me!).
Leave perfectionism, we are all imperfect humans! Let's do it... Choose something ANYTHING and keep the thoughts rolling together...!
