Deep within the ocean
is silence and peace.
Similarly in the mind,
whatever the uneasiness,
pain or suffering,
they too can be on the surface.
Don't just surf the surface only.
Deep dive. Together in the mind.

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!
Mastodon friendliness - give people a sign!
Would save me time contacting people if they wrote "Will not respond to messages and not interested in making friends" etc
(They are post online, surprisingly alarming rate but yeah stranger-danger prob, autism or whatever flavours of usual). Without solving it (by becoming friends!) or discovering my angles I guess got keep moving on!
Don't mind it- it helps posting... but it's misleading to be here and for it to be one way... Trying not to be hard on folks and I do get reply all the time so eh... I'm fast maybe.
Elephants can be slow too or run away scared too easily (unmeasured fear)...
"Tech doesn't make our lives easier -- but faster. "
Another wonderful piece from Brett Scott which summarizes/frames the current situation pretty well https://brettscott.substack.com/p/tech-doesnt-make-our-lives-easier
We have reports from people for whom delta chat works while signal shows "no internet" ... Various states are throttling traffic all across the planet and you need to have a robust networking layer to provide service. Delta Chat is offline-first, ignores DNS outages, can be combined with Tor or Tails. It is trying to make live easier for people who are already in stress and need a reliable messenging experience. It is project practise to keep the least wealthily connected in focus.
#ShowerThoughts: You can't be sardonic online. People can't see the mirth in your eyes and they think you're just being snotty.

It is heavier but as heavy duty goes it will be good for longer bits.
Ooh a fediverse post that CANNOT be boosted. Interesting...
If you can believe people are useful without them actually being useful to you directly... this makes for some benefits:
█ better feelings towards others - less conditional
█ doesn't assume you need to know right away - gives time
█ doesn't box people into government regulated terms of 'jobs'
█ allows communication more open or present or free flowing, not just based on what they can do for you in business sense or "what do you" as the forefront
█ Even might avoid comparison or conflict at first
I accept knowing is good or not a bad thing, but the order of doing things can be more healthy or human as it's limiting in it's own way.
█ Even let's them share in their own time (unless both of you say little in which case ask if they don't mind !)
There's a big difference between assuming things are dead and it actually being dead...
There's a big difference between assuming things are dead and it actually being dead.
(This works in many sense of word dead - the physical and mental sense).
--------------------------
Notes + examples below from this posts thought :
--------------------------
█ Value or worth is still to those people there, it's not the number or extreme popularity only.
█ The reduction of numbers doesn't always mean it's dead
█ One can assume (even from experience) something is wrong and be quick to dispose, discard, disregard something because of perceptions, and then perceived time or economic perspectives effort in it's repair... but remove or adjust 1 or 2 assumptions and actually things can be continued... and still existing in another ways.
█ Getting it to "how it was before" is a mind thing which still can be enjoyed in less perfect state (or less perfect in your mind but still better than 0)
Examples below:
- as movement
- as product moving on
- a change of hands / rebranding
- repair of things
└Example 1, software dies but then gets forked somewhere else. You might see it as dead but it's growing somewhere if you look deeper (yes this is effort but can continue just as before once you find new website etc).
└Example 2The growth of a company or fandom might be less or the scene is dwindling from the hype days but small roots can grow and even more cherished (or just the same as it was just not as popular).
When we all realise things are deliberately kept broken, and people are acting passive-aggressively... closing in on your space and at the same time asking for even more money...
then you can finally really accept "no I don't want to pay" and be yourself and start from there more often...
To some level let them handle / pay for it / waste their time in front of them to see you're not the criminal born into a world or system that doesn't ask or care what you think...
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...!
