Chess - Two amazing games...

Almost had mate, had to tweak it
while avoiding mate myself!
2- https://lichess.org/XmtkJUhyp9DK
Sudden but soft strike,
(or perhaps the other way around!)
Anyone who wants commentary welcome. Or show me your games (copy url and that's it!) and I'll give you tips or generally "where it went most wrong" ---> without trying to school anyone / just for interest
Language can seem accurate... but if we assume language is precise we can go wrong just as fast also...
Language often seems like it is naming things perfectly well but sometimes naming something at all is an error because of what it does say (and if we assume language is precise we can go wrong just as fast also...)
Reasons for such errors:
- things and people have many more attributes than their name
It / They are not just what it's name is
- More correctly names are what they have been given, and that can also depend on who gave it for it's own twist into the story or meaning of the name
- things / people are usually an ever changing variable or evolving. This includes hidden depreciation or natural wear and tear.
- things / people has many subcomponents which can be more or less relevant but not obvious unless you knowing it more inside and out
- it lack respect to look at something in short (humans for example need much more and it's disrespect to look down on people with short-depth understanding or with 0/minimal/proper study or 1st person asking)
- people feed themselves what suits them (if it's bad they look for then bad they will get)
- things / people can be objectified or over-personal by names
- Short-depth perspectives feed assumption of the on-looker - when it's much deeper in many ways (including consciousness) it can also trigger in people more problems BUT at least more truth is there... and it's also confusing- expect that! Better than shorter pretending, right?
Using social media when it's against your own principles doesn't work
Using social media when it's against your own principles doesn't work especially to reach people who don't want to be reach or who know already (don't kid yourself by being there or trying to save anybody)...
1st BIG point is also make it measurable, so you're not on it indefinitely as it's the HABIT which is also being trained there (USER = HABITS,...
2 BIG point- you're also endorsing what you use a lot of the time even if you don't mean to)
IN MORE DETAIL:
1- If you're using social media to 'reach people, please make sure you measure your successes vs. you're failure (i.e you're whole time you're there and not here or non-commercial space)
People who are forever on it under the 'activist' flag or user type I think after a certain time need to accept the score and see people are not there to be converted or you're being there is over-kill in the name of others who already know.
2- You're only adding yourself to the fire (not in a good way!).
In a good way, see it as burning building, when there is no need to go rescue anyone or anything.
@Pat
So did you get it?
Friends can get offended if they use their friends always to represent themselves....
Friends can get offended because often they use their friends to represent themselves.
Best have trained out of this, and while negotiation with good friends is good, at the end you are you and they are them. No competition or you existence is not there to be opposite them though they can perceive it that way 0_0
A good friend makes time to tell their friend in space and time. A bad friend (in my book) doesn't make time and doesn't want to hear it (these people you can try with but don't throw yourself at their mercy).
Good friends know the limitations of the other(s) while accepting it if it's above a certain limit or even if 1 thing is great and the rest bad (using each other for the best bits or generally cool and casually able to hang out)
languages influence how you express yourself and what you say / write / value though it may not be obvious to you or others how much,...
The language(s) you use influence how and what you write perhaps from it's own culture, history etc though it may not be obvious to you or others
(even subtle or unsubtle perspectives, nomenclature, values of object are all involved)
woa crazy! My commons sayings:
- like water is not so obvious to fish
- like air can be seen or appreciated by humans
Keeping good things in common!... Creative Commons (some info / logos to use) ...
-Some of my thoughts and
-Future slogans:
Creative Commons says upfront what people can do in a more clear manner. (see logos and banners)
Blocking the bad in a legal ways and standards or just clearly said ways can be a good thing,
Like using something against those that attack us, restricting them also. It's not perfect perhaps but does well as a more pre-emptive defence or attacking move for more moral chess (rather than waiting until your creations to get use / stolen / robbed / patented and then complain about it).
It's "nice" to be clear and even make exceptions while not leaving the door always open.
Remember 'legal' is not moral by existence or as a default. it's a more authoritarian thing like rules which can just be top-down orders.
Public people / Peasants / Civilians who didn't create legal law. or know near-0 about it, mistaking use 'moral' with legal. People cn even replace it like it's the same thing like rules+morals=law... butoften not!! Many things "legal" just seem "moral" or seem "legal" it's the same game as before with more hoops and more nested rules inside other rules (like the mummy dolls you open up https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matryoshka_doll
Law / Legality DOES NOT NEED be moral or very clearly moral in it's creation. Legality is mostly an own self-made construct of many things for outcomes good for the 'house' / lords / owners etc. It's not conditionally moral, just plays close enough to act like it....
And by default expects you to pay to break back any rules they add. And by adding many rules fast they are getting more what they want unless we can undo them or put them to stricter questioning in creation.
To pay for what is questionably wrong or pay to prove they are 'wrong' is also a casino in which win or lose the lawyers and house get a cut AND know what to block in the future with smaller cases that arise. It's not a static system.
Difficult to block all these things... so Creative Commons licenses (for example CC-BY-NC-SA) allows people to see the bastard tactics ahead of time and BLOCK them using it's license maker...

@9mins Big Business QUOTE
" Big Business is really taking advantage of the vacuums just as we took advantage of those open space and opportunities because that's what humans do- we're opportunist- and when we see a new space and a new territory we like to go and explore it. "
Businesses are being super-predatory
@2.35mins Music and Protest
Vinyl records + Channel of creativity
free parties + pirate radio stations + white labels
purely human with less influence outside of that
and inspiration to create inside of that - less corrupted creativity
- EVERYONE IN THE LOOP giving copies to other creators
- then distributing themselves while setting places to play
- not fighting against each other or selling only
- gets best out of business each other and spreads music
- as much fun as possible collecting all the music and money together for the parties!
Imagination that is fired and actioned through the process of creativity
Funding from vinyl and techno that was new at the time.
Networking and sharing the knowledge and resources.

More about audio - Speaker Mark (a.k.a. Stray Wayward)
****************
Looking back to see how music between people was shared in the #squat or #protest movement, and seemingly music funded the revolution somewhat and it worked (as said by speaker)
Everyone creating and sharing their music themselves (white labels vinyl records) and doing 'business' was more about sharing and maximising the copies, with profit going to everyone and the causes while spreading the message and fun in parties and keeping people towards bigger actions!
(#Music, #Protest, #Parties seemed to work well as Mark the speaker explains)

MORE FULL Transcript about selling music / funding parties:
*************************************************
@2.35mins of edit
With vinyl cost about 80cents to make
Could make an EP 4 track record (everyone cold make a record on vinyl was so cheap, relatively easy to make and swappable)
Swapped record with other underground creators
DJ's could play it and sell for those who asked / at gigs
Everyone would have their equal cut from playing benefits
Everyone becomes an informal 'underground distribution network' and a own 'record shop' for selling or linking to authors (people asking who / what song it is etc)
Everyone has / get best music for dj-ing and parties
Sell records quickly allowed to by equipment (even if it's stolen by police at free parties - just build up and sell again!)
(this was at the boom of music perhaps and with vinyl but the list above has good mentality of 'everyone involved or everyone eventually getting all the best music' no matter which level you're on.

FFWD/Forward The Revolution anthem 3.35mins of edit
**************************************
https://yewtu.be/watch?v=c9FG-WrT8co
Techno Jungle-style track (almost my style) by Spiral Tribe
- sounded like saying "Flowers For Revolution" which I also liked the idea of!..
- American Indian intro and bit of chants in between
- thankfully not too many space pulses in there
- raps in the middle - home-made sound not too underdone - great just to get things out there and not to pver-cook it all and be professional!
Phrase for track
"You might stop the party but you can't stop the future"

comment quotes:
- I'm 50years old now! (and me too's!)
- 28years later and still relevant
- Was doing acid / LCD at the time and really happy about it now.
- rave on in 2020 !!!!! .......... you know the score !!!!!!!!!! ;)
- make the prodigy look like softies!!!!!............... very tribal and timeless!
- Blast! Got this on vinyl, original press;) dope! (2021!)
- Was on mixtape "The Free Force of Techno" (Spiral 23)
***********************
Back to Talk / Speaker
***********************
The Track FFWD/Forward The Revolution was...
environmentally based and sensitive for it's time
reached mainstream 66 in charts - not sure what that means but made an impact on people
expression of music was really important
With music benefits were... channel of creativity - more autonomous
back then it was
- free parties / squatting / illegal unlicensed stuff
- pirate radio stations
- white label music (own made / no-label / non-commercial)
Really connected people - purely human without less any kind influence from outside or mainstream and inspiration was inspired to add own creativity inside of that
mainstream tends to get corrupted too quickly or is something else entirely...
unlicensed keep in common with all the forms of music (self-governed / people-funded / less commercial / more for free or illegal use!)
4million for biggest court case in history
Police and intensity in which they want to deal with any autonomous free-space, free-party, squatting...
Kopiwagenplatz Squat / Autonomous space in Berlin, Germany
https://konfront.dk/kopiwagenplatz-is-here-to-stay-damn-it/
(Supposedly 2000 riot police, 2 armoured vehicles to evict)
Police is big business. (Money-making business from evictions?)
Police and Army using too much force.
French companies with government contracts
Explosive grenades supposedly no lethal - TNT 25g and then 14g inside inside... blew off an arm of a young boy at a solstice free party
Neo-liberal, capitalist system corrupt and looking after a very few people - extractive economy
hoarding money in tax havens
and more money in militarisation and crowd control of the people by the police
Everyone has caught up now from old system and digitalised their systems.
9mins of edit - Big Business is really taking advantage of the vacuums, just as we took advantage of those open space and opportunities, because that's what humans do- we're opportunist- and when we see a new space and a new territory we like to go and explore it.
But big difference 30yrs ago and now... they have caught up now from old system and digitalised and now:
all businesses are being super-predatory
the gentrification
and other things like:
patent of molecules
patenting of ideas
copyright
As soon as some idea pops up, there they are with full backing, police, military, legal etc
My question is yeah they are being opportunists in a destruct foolish way
but rather than being reactionary to that
is to pull on our greatest asset and ability think things through
we could actually upgrade and redefine what we mean by revolution
Maybe what needs to happen now is redefining and re-imagining what would be more effective
It's now 30yrs anniversary of FFWD / Forward the revolution of when it was released and we are re-releasing it!
When we had the ability to generate our own vinyl we were able to fund so much
We just have to imagine them and bring our idea into action
I'm still working on cooperation, share-ownership
Lisa (Event Host) also shares these ideas.

Human Trafficking is pretty much what we have now...
#Human Trafficking is pretty much what we have now. A market place for people who are bought / hired and somewhat owned as the basic ultimatum to living (or just existing not really living outside of work as they are too tired / head hurts / demotivated / need to sleep).
People / future children get roped into selling their time as an ultimatum to getting food and paying for increasingly expensive shelter (for the same houses, paying multiple times their cost) while yes more luxury or pollutions exists also (better than old-forms of slavery) while also at the same time emptying out morality somewhat... leaving much less for the next generation / constricting life.
SO mainly this basis is my focus in mentioning this basic form of trafficking as the bare ultimatum condition of living (you die quickly without a job so it's jsut newer form of slavery / soft-slavery, manipulation, steering... always a bit of a losing exchange happening at the same time as 'just living' is not really living but debatable it's addressing continuing problems causes by Government who is also manipulating by DEvaluating people and starving things out of existence in the communities).
All while some almost anonymous entity chooses who gets more as wages and what it will pay more and less for and who is worth more to them in their won values and just subsidising to boost things artificially (using public money).
This all seems proportionally evident to all the good things which take mind-bending hours (often illegal or unsaid over-working / non-paid work) by the basic and labour intensive work like teachers, doctors, nurses, human care... which is paid less than a lawyer for 15mins of their time (gatekeepers / other ultimatums via paygates re-enforced by Government structure).
Yes it's not fair and yes buying and selling each others time while Government and banks siphon it for their own collective's wants and will-power to do differently than their people are crying for and protest about every day...
Human Trafficking is one of the major basics to funding and fuelling other problems instead of solving properly existing problems (hungry people, solving suffering) without further taking advantage of people and making them go through lots of hoops and obstacles as kind of adding problems on some other sides of the equation to what they 'solving' and what we are paying infinitely for.
I reserve the right to re-write this... but any major problems
(like if you think the mentality of those controlling system is good and good-willed / not over-manipulative / if they are looking to really solve things or just trying to further their own enterprise / business of ruling people as cheap as possible for themselves).

edited quotes from #GiveLotus hashtag.......towards my own meanings or shorter forms....
originally by @maff1989
...a simple, efficient, and productive mechanism (if this is at all humanly possible) for providing funding to push forward the dream of a better, less violent, more free world."
Ideally just giving things and having basics all taken care of (by ourselves AND by others that work faster / slower in many different ways)
edited quote text from original quotes all here #GiveLotus by @maff1989
-----------------------------
...Wouldn't it be great for projects if they could be funded consistently by *ethical money instead of funded inconsistently through donations of blood money? (* = never is it 100% ethical since it was most likely created 100% from needed debt or % as result of government or bank pressure on humanity (themselves doing bad work / tricking us and their people)
edited quote text from original quotes all here #GiveLotus by @maff1989
-----------------------------
The problem with new currency as viable money is that it cannot be a unit of account while priced in another unit of account, e.g. USD.
edited quote text from original quotes all here #GiveLotus by @maff1989
-----------------------------
Lotus solves this problem by adjusting inflation to demand, as opposed to a "hard supply cap", thereby allowing for price stability.
edited quote text from original quotes all here #GiveLotus by @maff1989
-----------------------------
"Due to the lack of ability to stabilize the value of the cryptocurrencies, they are unsuitable for being a unit of
account in trades which involve a time-delay between price agreement and redemption." -
edited quote text from original quotes all here #GiveLotus by @maff1989
-----------------------------
Crypto speculation in crypto markets is widely a losing endeavor. It's only profitable if you're in the tight-knit group of insiders that are manipulating the markets.
edited quote text from original quotes all here #GiveLotus by @maff1989
-----------------------------
It's better to give crypto than to trade crypto. #GiveLotus
-----------------------------
...adjusting inflation to demand... also sounds like manipulation and bias towards keeping it 'balanced' perhaps like a treadmill wanting to keep people working for the change prices... meaning it's unbalanced and needs questionable intervention though it might be less of an evil that inflation or determination by companies...., as opposed to a "hard supply cap" allowing for price stability.

I challenge all sciences WHEN all things inside it (or it's people representing things) count some things *IN* and by doing so count OUT other things at the same time... AND I HOPE I REGRET THIS / FIND YOUR REASONING!.... :)
I challenge all sciences WHEN all things inside it and it's way of doing things (or it's people representing those things) count some things IN and by doing so actually count things *OUT* other *at the same time*...
Somewhat selective calculating perhaps without realising or caring. So while it can seem without bias or not important it would be similar to being inconsiderate or like talking to robots that only understand it's own field.
Without a kind of allowance around everything to assume it's more than we see it can be a type of fascism... Oh boy... Ok so maybe not fascism but absolutist view looking upon things without space for things other than a number attributed to it.
My ideal is sapience and understanding in people more people in counting mode all the time- more the consideration and life-dynamics (this term I could probably improve) as a debated definition (which at the end I come back to planet always and keeping people alive).
So the above is important to humans (for machines it's also similar as parts of their lifecycle but as example human needs more considerations, which are very much like for machines like the greasing of wheels regularly which can't be missed out in equations but harder to calculate, but many more things like that unseen, unfelt by others but still greasing of wheels for humans and feelings)
So to even assume to be so absolute in things which are not absolute or even changing start and attribute (such as people themselves as individuals or attributes of things) I feel is a MAJOR over-sight and that I'm undefeatable in this! (but how some reasoning can test it)... so I can accept some part of sciences but all comes back to bite itself (and humans) if not respected enough it's limitations.
Again to emphasise I can accept use-cases etc, but too often it's almost an unsaid and faux-pas to only count some things but not others. So when x has many more attributes and functions, it fails to respect things which are REALLY important to humans! (but perhaps not important for equation-makers / matrix grid / columns and rows of numebers).
It might seem over-dramatising it and yes I am looking for a bit of a fight... but if you consider these kinds of equations miss out many humanistic factors and uniquely valued things (which are also subject to different people's OWN logic), then it might not be surprising all these 'logic' equation have missed out in MANY equations this factor by trying to rope in everything which to be honest they can't...
can they?
And maybe they don't claim to do that but seems standardising it and many techniques everywhere does assume that.
Teaching kids to count mainly and not consider people is perhaps why it's so well-taught, almost showing from schools what certain people (Governments) want to be included and what they don't- it's subtle isn't it... or if see it clearly it's really clear! DON'T TEACH PEOPLE THOSE THINGS LIKE ASKING PEOPLE AND CARING!)
This doesn't become a problem until you realise it all adds up.
Maths,,, all innocent of course. Hmmm very small cases and overall inside other living things kinds of infinitely debatable perhaps an an onion skin inside another...
So on a scientific level saying "x is not only x but has other attributes" means a lot is not counted in this equation and if we are not measuring (respecting) then we are creating trouble or leaving left-overs / cut-out values at the same time 'solving' them. What doesn't count human things seems certainly erroneous
and important to quote me is saying:
"Humans are not perfect and subject to change!"
"What stays static in that measurement is almost surely wrong...." unless there is really lots of other things to ask/measure from people and even then they might just say "I might not feel like it!" and it would need to be too real-time that actually people would be the one's who should be doing this as they manage consent too at the same time (machines and maths not having this function really or poor replacement and would have to ask almost everything which is why human mediation is best even if it's not perfect).
We did get lost in thinking perfection is possible or that it's better ... and while it may give fruits still the acceptance of less-than-perfect wonderful humans are my preference / priority here.
Distraction below / money stuff but above is the main.
So as one distractinary self-answer, on some simplified level quickly, it's just about asking the person / people what they think... not just trying to standardise people or opinions into numbers and stats etc... which obviously can't cover it...
and it needs far more intellect which is why the matrix way is dominating as it 'seems' so easy or for people to profit, measure etc.
As a funny counter point to myself... something more than a measuring tape to measure wood is about the best use-care for real / most basic measurement!
And by the way how much is your child worth ? Or if you don't have kids, how much is your mum worth? (goes into money but example shows some things are not about numbers or the planet is somewhat unpriceble or priceless and a mistake to change/value into money or even numbers beyond certain reasons like for keeping people alive more honestly / directly)
Corporations I imagine are like converters of energy, regulated by Government - just bucking as much as possible,..
They see how much they can get from people / population of peasants before doing anything. This logic is bad according to me.
I imagine them as taking a buckets load of planetary stuff and trying to convert it all into cash. (feel free to draw that!)
Or someone at a pawnshop asking the shop-keeper how much they would get from cashing in Earth itself.
And all this while government moves the chairs of incentives and mentality itself to suit it's next goal or dissatisfactions.
P.S
I realise about the paradox of my existence without them etc etc but it's not the right way in many ways so no arguments on whether I should live it's MORE ABOUT the method and way people and Earth are treated!
For those not really happy with above no worries - I'm not encouraging full-serious argument of it either. Just remember it is possible to 'create' things and people based on faulty calculation, arbitrary meaningless values or faulty exchanges... arguably that's more than half of the game of what we're in!
CONVERSATION SUMMARY POINTS + FAST ANSWERS
SHORT VERSION
[MORE INCOMPLETE VERSION]
1- The questionable nature of others doing ' business ' (a form of extraction method and a extension of gov itself !)
2- Measurably showing reality clearly, how? - e.g. 1 picture to show how they are doing it deliberately and allowing it to exist to feed from faults in design / profit from it.
3- Solutions. I'm happy to get together for a chat about it and with others. Moderation is a great thing. Try it!
LONGER ANSWERS / EXPANSION
1- The questionable nature of others... as humans are BOTH nice side in extraction and evil... the determining factors are who does this and why is it being done... [for profit siphoning or preserving human life directly]
Extraction is perhaps called ' business ' (a form of extraction and an extension of gov itself !)
Extraction + Government = Bad and mostly ignorant! Root of all evil roots! Can't trust them. Also can't trust people but in happier expressive environment can be much less damage or gang behaviour / working with nature as main environment not concrete cold financial districts.
2- Unless people pre-agree above point (about government being bad / siphoning / cheating etc) then we can't really stand together... pictures help show this as perhaps a personal measure rather than their 'funny-skewed' stats... to see their actions and positions (because they are tricking/raping us financially which is our blood/sweat/tears,)
And then also comes the work in balancing ourself [not working only in number formats / machanical thinking etc but nature of people as always an X themself we can try understand but always know we don't have 100% the x and allowing people their personalities back!]).
The premise is most people are not bad and I think this is measurable too!
The tearing point between people is when it seems like you vs. me or only left or right turns (ultimatums given by people or systems which we can recreate as in reality there is more though food production is relative to allowing this so a bit of that is needed to relieve tensions)
Acronyms can help see patterns of techniques:
-DRM, showing restrictions to online media
- Open Source being taken advantage of as free workforce and commercial gatekeepers *choosing* what code goes in and why...
- Non-commercial people die... Linux itself is run on 99% of the world's top servers etc but doesn't get much for it... if it did and if money was not so 'funny' itself then we would be 'ruling' a much fairer world... so we don't want to rule but arguable we can't expect nothing back for what we do (at least in ideology) to protect without over-protecting inside existing vulture capitalism... else our efficiency comes back at us and cuts us out (advertising technology, flight booking algorithms throttling / charging people more etc)
( just anything that can show the range of technique on 1 list / map diagram / wordcloud (I'm going to go off looking after this!)
So basically this comment was about measurably or quickly demonstrating it is what they are doing and anyway effectively for the person own moral decision in corporate bubbles who are doing a good 'job' of that business even if they don't mean it... so what do we do about that? Converting culture is the answer I think.
- I also see tech like giving a hammer to a child who is mostly nice but it doesn't take much to damage one's self (individual or humanity) and realising power over others (tricking people / threatening with hammer) can naturally and as a business connect to our primitive being / feelings.
People can use tools for good or bad but without know how to use it (lack of training and awareness) it soon goes wrong. Even a hammer can go badly.
It's different to not giving hammers or imposing legal restrictions and enforcing them (layers). It's about not using things even if free hammers given out...
NON-profit clamps maybes...
or other profit-prevention?
3- Tough one, but if you agree we're going towards free (as in freedom, more-financially-free and even reducing mass profit because it inversely proportionate to constricting / restricting the freedom of others.... then yes something needs to be done! Or just doing things less as a kind of helping keep more on top of what *we're* doing and not playing their games to stop the corporate parts that way too....
To nicely massages some of these topics and even prejudices out of people safely, and say something snappy 1-liners in reply. And people are just 'ah yeah' and just align... no big fight needed...
Quickly written - Happy to audio chat and as group moderate (firm but fun and fair moderations to get best out of everyone ?)
I haven't watched a Hollywood movie this year...
I just don't think like that any more.
Once you have better games, it's true you spend less on what was mostly 'throw away' time or learning which now I found better sources from to do, rather than filtering Hollywood ideas in movies. I guess I also had enough of it having watched measurably 1000's.
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!).
Podcast Examples:

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...!
