Beauty is in the eye of the beholder... 

So THE KEY is how far do you see the beauty? and can you keep that in focus more than the distractions?

Can you switch back into thinking the world is amazing again by seeing beauty in your work or others instead of digging into the same scars or problem people and many eyesores from far away?

Being aware of bad while still trying to dance positively around it I think is a way to deal with it... naturally hard as everything has to degrade / decompose eventually... hard to accept that but part of composting can be nice growth too ! Combating things while ideally still with appreciation going out smiling at each other somewhat lovingly...

Progress is a danger to itself if it's not socially growing more caring people... 

I think we need more caring people and that involves teaching them, holding their hand to go to places of thought... probably the hard stuff nobody wants to do and is not doing! Or is too hard in text so human voice / 2 way presentation does better.
-------------------------------
THAT'S IT NO NEED TO READ IF YOU CAN'T STAND IT,
-------------------------------
The title doesn't mean I hate everything else... but that priority is more caring people and warmer interaction 1 by 1 r group-work INSIDE whatever work you're doing as there is little point making something but more having more caring people at the end...

Again ----- no need read more.
Rest is just for me and some that like / can read.

I PROMOTE growing brains more than many other work... because eventually things like communication and caring is included in everything and within people's thinking. So in everything that is worth more than anything and everything else will be anyway improved after that.

But just being a sniper in pure-maths or computing + low ability / low practice in communication / not managing anger and emotions / not having sapience / compassion / understanding eliminates a lot of skills = less of a caring / human-transferable skill.

Things in the list above I feel / see as really underestimated / untaught institutionally but what is actually part of bridges to all things more human. (Human rights etc which needs humans to be part of the justice - it's not going to be only computer software needed for going out and enforcing rights or going out to stop it physically!)

Without brains everything starts to fall apart or get abuse. Users or developers are lop-sided in tech and also abusing it at the same time / not looking AND social improvement during their work. A lot is computer repetition.

Everything developed for people with less brains (methodology in learning) is at risk of breaking themselves or just handing more stuff for people to do things recklessly or faster.
More ammo to those BigBoys BigTech that simply print the money or have the guns... and you don't.

----------------------------------------
SO 2 BIG DIVIDES IN THIS CONTEXT:
----------------------------------------

1st divide = user brains including - anyone ignoring the social improvement side and calling others 'stupid' (that you are not educating yourself or part of the program) means more of the same / people that don't care enough about much.

2nd divide is monetary resources etc. So users innocently will just focus on money (not understanding it) and fat cats will rake in the cash and further divides / cause more wars (fotware and enforcement HARDware)

If you have neither these 2... and you're not educating

BE VERY CAREFUL HOW MANY CATS YOU LET OUT OF THE BAG!

My thinking is really to improve people's ability to communicate and improve those lines connecting to everything else, AND then quality in work also comes... otherwise it's more of the same careless use / people not switching and hijacking of good ideas by fat cats toward what you see in the videos attached!...

If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.

Ultimatums - Freedom or Slavery... (the same game as before)... 

My edited picture reads:

I don't like ultimatums. But it's seems it's not our choice:

dangerous freedom
or
peaceful slavery (which means the list below)

passive aggressive control
commercial monopoly
manipulation and misrepresentation
being warlords elsewhere
sociopathic decisions

This seems appropriate to consider. We've been on this road for a while. Our government just feels it can be more open now.

a frustration with myself and my education is that I spent years trying to answer the question of why software systems struggle with basic shit like this. now I think the answer, more than anything else, is capitalism. there is not really any incentive to build systems that interoperate with your competitor, so very little resources are dedicated to that. but interoperation is crucial to building robust usable systems, so you end up building deficient stuff because the market demands it.

Do mention if you like why you're not sure..,. or any comment.... how it's not a clear yes or no (which of course it never is but even 80% could be a yes more than unsure...)

So if really unsure like 50% what the other 50% for you?

There has not been one revolution in the world's history which was carried out by the working people in their own interests -- by urban workers and poor peasants who do not exploit the work of others.

@freeschool bricks are older than the pyramids, and there's a bunch of still-standing brick buildings older than the US in Europe, especially in the west, since the more eastern parts really like their wood.

And of course pretty much all noteworthy castles and palaces are super old too, but that really stretches the definition of a "house". The Malbork castle in northern Poland is from the 13th century, for example:

No photo for a while...but here's one from a few days ago, a beautiful little grape #hyacinth.

Like most people in our area we have quite a lot of those in our #garden. Their wonderful blossoms area such a great sign of early spring.

This specific one grew tall enough for me to get my camera below it and use the leaves in the foreground as bokeh, while a setting evening sun painted everything in a beautiful, warm light.

Worse than being blind, is to see and have no vision.

You have rights and then they are taken away.

You can’t obey the law in a police state because everything is illegal.

Being good or bad doesn’t matter because eventually the Gestapo comes for everyone.

And then the question is; Who is Next?

Soon enough we are no longer a minority that can trampled all over...

Engage in random acts of kindness and altruism. This has been linked to mood boosting.

Absolutely NO physical force + no exceptions to this?
