human psychology, on top of usual misconceptions, is what I see to be solved - it's natural to deal with a person from wherever they are coming from, almost genuinely mistaken like us before... (not everyone sure!)
@are0h
I should ask more the context and then write more, so treat this as a bit of practice for me as I agree but generally try more than less.
Because it's natural to deal with a person from wherever they are coming from... in various moments,,. over an "Internet".
So a lot of this below is about Human psychology but also some gems starting with █ which is what I see as part of it all....
█The time and where to look is sometimes also the main thing -
human psychology on top of that in crazy ways.
█I'd say there is a lot of truth in not supplying more info or energy to the wrong / uninterested people because they can just tangent further and badly, perhaps as a form of time-waster jealousy... or they are trying to find something badly (trouble shooting or critique in the wrong way) or trying to find what isn't there as it sounds too good. But good to see this pattern a bit before judging.
As mini-leaders of thought, good to give them a bit of personal candy else they resort to spamming also in the end.
I do see from the past that they make bullshit reasons _from_ *what we give them*....
█BUT THAT IS US, AS HUMANS- somewhat! If it's the malicious types ok fine not that - but the natural normal or unskilled is that we hear a word, we take the bad part first, we get defensive, we get triggered (a whole list you will yourself trip on one)... and then we / you need to work back to that tangential trip and continue the correct node (like a therapist would go back and adjust and align things remembering where you went wrong. (Yes life is all a therapy thing)
And less on Fediverse (even the bad one's you know from the avatar that makes you think you know already what they are about - they are ok mostly - and at least they are genuine to themselves or to their creativity somewhat)
█So before judging tooo much or considering it too much time in having a bit of human adjustment, the personal time can make all the difference...
almost not leaving them to depth of the net too just to make sure they are not further a victim / going to echo-chambers.
█ Also too many talk "with" computers than with humans
(there is a big difference and that therapy stuff I mentioned can be coming out of the computing 'perfection' and perfect porn it is pressing keyboard and getting exact response..... Nooo not humans! Time to enjoy that and continue with positives and increment negatives at the same time.)
=================================
Other points if interested deeper, Admit this could be reordered but all good
=================================
█It's not always easy and simple with a million links to search political stuff to answer or narrow it down (it's ok for apps to find and download app but not sure finding out what you mean or political things is simple at all - so prepping something earlier or as people ask helps.
█Heard someone say Wikipedia is less reliable which surprised me and I was only using that sometimes! But yeah I guess Wiki links and facts are ok for existing things but more complicated = issues in communication between people (therefore politics and eventually accept all people are imperfect and accept imperfection).
█So Yeah back to this post more I agree with Chris's reply (and you in many scenarios) that having it clear, for many reasons can suit us all well in the end... and mostly it's the time or will on our side with diminishing returns perceived (seemingly or I agree it all is- but this is all we have too at the same time without devaluing myself too easily either - I don't want to serve capitalism and think I'm doing better)
I imagine people don't do things because it takes time (let alone time to bigots) and other subtle things there (misconceptions etc).
But if it were a copy and paste thing for you, say to 1 webpage (like a FAQ or Wordpress searchable thing) THEN it's a kind of game changer where you not trying too hard to manually do things and less of an issue *whoever* it is. Work is done prior, as opposed to "on-the-fly" which can be hard for machines and humans!
Mastodon search allows us to do work and then reference it THAT IS AMAZING. Maybe in future allowing certain people to search all post but yeah I can search now and give you a link to everything I've covered which is a lot!!
█Good people are also psychologically scared / scarred if they think so or not (the human condition) and can be all over the place with comms (emotions, logic, neither) so I think the method or easy of use does change the whole dynamic which might be represented as you and them as:
▀▄ "No I don't want to spend time on you" / "Not another one to explain to" and becomes "I already did this for someone before, take a look at my personal link or search this keyword here"
and then also for them it goes from:
▀▄"I can't handle searching 10 more unclear further political links and it's cookies and ads... I want more your side (because I respect you / think your ALMOST perfect but won't tell you) so give me something that covers it without sponsored ads and paid-people influence" (etc)
- it's all valid and we all get to that stage even with the will to try... takes us days to do it sometimes.
█So while I've personally been maybe wasting time with many people as FreeSchool-ing people goes I have ways that is literally seconds so it's no problem and I'm doing other things at the same time I enjoy. I can get that image or link I need now in seconds
(a tool called "Everything" does this amazing job - but you can search for that right?) :D :F
[lol will make a post on this or ask if needed]
So easy way = easy 'conversion' of people.
Many level of person needs hand holding - sometime the experts more- to do or find out why not, because as human psychology goes:
*We don't do things for many reasons* !
We don't go to the gym
but with friend we do or on the 3rd invite just go... And soon enough are trying to get everyone to go.
█Example, so you see how exactly I know and can catch it: I was not watching sportsman for years thinking they were not good and therefore not downloading their stuff but almost all other stuff... and then realising later he's one of the best MMA / UFC fighters and I should have been following him too (just in general or specifically as martial artist).
I've almost been watching all *but* his stuff JUST BECAUSE he has an X in his surname!!
I thought he wasn't good quite because of these aesthetics!...
The example is just a small part of what it could be.
I know even experts have this inversely proportional challenge for themselves (more of 'this' knowledge or skill, but less 'trust' in themself or others and therefore detrimental distance). Seems so simple but they can't accept even though they might even know better. I get this with privacy people who still get stuck in wanting to know all about someone and focussing on doubting them instead :]
Yes I try with everyone,
knowing it's not personal... IT'S HUMAN :)
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL us all (paradoxes to fix, tragedy of life to live out, born that way stuff).
Just needs a way to make it more pleasurable.
Hope this writing wasn't a complete waste....
EPIC
MY SOLUTIONS (might not be to you or suject here)
█One page / searchable curated version by what I / we already do or have learned is a lot better.
█A dedicated volunteer who loves batting flies nicely knowing "it's not just customers fault" lol.
Literally before I had a Wordpress site and it was like they got it more often! Put keyword in and you get my principles and picture in that. Done. Even the titles of posts said it all (much like my posts here)
And if not if not real reason then I could just leave it as "said" with proper string left for them to pull / come back to me about / site to search alone. Often people need counter-part as a way to battle (and learn) but eventually we learn to learn together.
Fuck this is wise.
Worse is leaving unskilled people to do yet more unskilled work and yes chop wood for them asking them to carry or find something else (not always sending them away).
A lot of net and even searching stuff I believe is BS itself (measurably crap nowadays) and almost I don't blame others for not trying. I almost "don't do it" because even searching shows there is political influence and distraction... and more than ever every action has million more B$ links to go astray with...
And on that note... Thanks for reading-
Hope that makes sense... otherwise I'm going to have to make a page for that too as!! :D
"WORK IN PROGRESS..."
"Easy when you know how..."
"yes questions aren't perfect / are an art itself)"
AND how I keep going is even to get ideas from 'them' too which helps simplify (not for them but yeah also dummies guide where it's near impossible for them to upgrade their brain's firmware).
Imagine me happy even with spammers etc and finding out there are some of the best in their own ways!!!!
Strange world, but expecting it and even providing / getting people on it does help.
I mean, its not even about white people. In fact many nonwhites are immigrants themselves and just as white people arent native its kinda hyocritical either way if gour here.
@freemo @bluGill I would take 'migration' part inside the word (or as separate meaning) to be the main meaning of people just moving from place to place and without political or human layers 'immigration' seems to invoke and combine the same time.
Migration also as 'the periodic passage of groups of animals' in the sense we would 'normally' or previously more often be always moving... or as 1 humanity directly in contact with earth, seasons, changes and all that.
2024 book / manual: "So you've decided to become isolated and weird"...
Book would be like looking at my posts like a "Life's Lessons": https://qoto.org/@freeschool/media
(picture is of Bart from Simpsons being isolated and weird looking outside suspiciously from window)
@ellie @val @tomflood1
Almost dystopian (err... reality).
That is a great picture.
Shows literally that TECH TAKES OVER!... and space for kids is well REDUCED!
...I feel another post coming into mind with this title right now! or maybe this is it!...
thanks for the pic...
...And the bicycle painted being worn off is like some "Back to the Future" erasing of the past!!
OMG! x
WHICH PIC IS BEST? #1,2#,#3,#4 ?
@shane @freemo Oh really I though it was super obvious... like an arrow from name, pointing to diver... but oh well maybe arrow nearer for that kind of pic to obviously say "it's our friend @freemo there" not just a nice quote type picture. Thanks or mentioning - such obvious arrow type things I would rarely imagine didn't ask person to look / link it.
But ok, great - another thing explored :)
lewd picture, nipple
@aby This reminded me of when I first got on the Fediverse and scrolled to see a CW of huge penis selfie from someone and thought wow that it is kind of brave, artful, real... something more than the extreme people assume and fakeness, and then after well, people can choose to interact or not over these things maybe relative to wanting similar bravery and sharing (did come to mind) and find out more of these kind of pictures around many things probably around art, sex... I mean I get that from mushroom pics and have to keep looking at their beauty! And then there's more not just eyes candy, the voyeurism or personal-but-anonymous creative side, self-love, attraction, sharing self etc..
Something about all this made me boost it as a reminder and to get nearer to what's great about this. (and Thanks if that doesn't make you too conscious about what I really works in lots of ways!)
lewd picture, nipple
I had a trist with a dominant a number of years ago online.. he was toxic af, but one of the things that I discovered during that was that taking nude/lewd pictures of myself boosted my self esteem a huge amount.
He have me take pictures to send him, and I actually really enjoyed it.. there was a deliberateness and artfulness that I discovered during the process that I hadn't found within myself before.
I think I'm going to start that again.
@aby Boosted this and write here paraphrase / adaptation of it:
Peace = Sustaining power for governments passive-aggressive style - Easy after murdering and enslaving indigenous people and trying to do same with economic blood instead
WHICH PIC IS BEST? #1,2#,#3,#4 ?
@freemo @shane Yea I enjoyed those pics and remember at the time you were like "yeah I just love my life" when I asked :)
The inspiration why I made this was mainly when I saw those pics and felt it matched this unknown that is for others the other people over Fediverse, and for me helping people on how to get over going to the unknown and specifically working with more privacy orientated people (semi-anonymous). Because I know a few who I deep dived with but they cut off when I didn't want to say where I was born etc and explained I'm not those things or similar to what they even said before. And that I focus on future more with my preferences and so can they. It was like an ultimatum... We did so well (for month or two) finding mutual things and half solving but then a small thing as ultimatum and that's it... that's it!
Anyway that's part of the making of these to help others see people are measurably ok :)
Really strange my dudes and dudets but the psychology is the least invest tech....
when people who know, don't get it / make it a big thing.... Great pics, thank for letting me bring to ours on the Fedi :)
#Respect #Sovereign #Freeman #Privacy ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ shrug
@Lobster "I'm already doing that!!" and "Been doing that most my life!" :)
How's this for example of hydrating constantly / liquid food?
(see pic for BIG Soup Pot (to elbow deep) Vegetables - Constantly Hydrated for months now - adding whatever too.
We are mostly water after all, so a bit of flavour and you can eat less AND keep warm without as much solids which you can adjust how much according to how you feel (potatoes almost only as solid for me!).
Serious anti-capitalism / more liquid nutrition soaking everything for longer time, I do have it like tea with more of a flavour yeah :)
Meta, feeling, sex mention, ~
@pettypurplepossum Guess it's work in progress or could even be 'discussed' in a mutually wanted setting... or yeah people are that way. Like they don't love as much... different fishes... just quick thoughts on that

Imagine that a different world is possible and then there is a chance you or others will do something towards it...
If people can't imagine freedom or trying together, then you put yourself in jeopardy from lack of it and lack of clarity in yourself with others. Believing enough is important.
If you and 1 person can imagine your own potential or just theirs, then you can make steps towards it. Casual and dedicated.
A Gandhi or Theresa might help as image and icon but it less and less unneeded when reality has you and me in. We have these shoulders we stand on already so not that tough but to accept the problems learning each other a bit as we go.
Fear not! We stand on great works already, and yes as long as I'm not for XYZ President (or whatever triggers) then all will be well :) but do consider great people had great flaws too...
Usually the basic recipe as that it should be quite fun and quite testing to avoid stagnation and to literally chase freedom like it's love itself.
Imagine that a different world is possible and then there is a chance you or others will do something towards it. Don't be paranoid about anonymity or other people's preferences because good work still works inside that (and maybe should so isn't taken down).
Without imagining, there is very little chance. And sometimes the opposite if you're not careful.
Starting here towards a bit of...
...freed❤m?
....friendship? ---> use that DM function!
@pony :) Aha (:
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...!
