FreeSchool: Learn Respect Love @freeschool@social.cleverlibre.org
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:
1. Gary Ackerman's thoughts on AI
https://qoto.org/@freeschool/111867522723922385
2. The Little Prince book

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...!

#5 Nurture human nature. What should success look like? A narrow focus on individuals, high-impact papers, grants & awards drives unhealthy competition & devalues the work of building & sustaining communities, mentoring, education, service & outreach. Let's reward #teamscience

#6 Design to distribute. Competitive funding schemes with low success rates are demoralising, waste time, and compound the Matthew Effect. Prioritisation of for-profit publishing and IP generation enclose public goods - the fruits of taxpayer-funded academic labour - for private profit. Calls for fairer funding & #OpenScience show that there is appetite for change.
Love is giving more than financially asking... Love is not what governments do...
Love is giving more than financially asking.
Love is not what governments do...
Asking is still part of love (letting people give)
Learning to ask and give (with less money in the middle) is for me true love.
Love is giving more than financially involving things (less involving banks who are cheating everyone)
Love is not what governments do.

Consumerism is another form of war applied to it
Different form of war and program of the government(s)... but essentially didn't change much since WWII MENTALITY of manipulation and economic war going back before that.
Just Governments added some aesthetics and branches of study from those bad roots, making the folio on top look like less fascistic / less financialk with better looking uniforms ( clothes ) but same dealings overall.
Still to conquer of the earth and it's people both domestic and foreign as part of 'business' is daily life.

Question- Wonder why in old texts hand written or typed they put the first word in CAPITAL LETTERS or make the first letter or the word much bigger in font size at beginning of paragraph... #Question #QOTO

Killing people doesn't always kill the idea...
Killing people doesn't always kill the idea...
"You can kill the man but you can't kill the idea"
This works in a good and bad way that things can change or stay the same also... so for example it's
●Bad if Capitalism continues with people perpetuating it's ways by following 250% (or all in)
●Good if people are aware and doing something about it (including educating their kids) and increasing % of other ideas before they die.
If people follow Capitalism without changing things then the good ideas slowly or quickly die... so it's not ideal but people have to put their lives on the line either way else they or children live in hell / totalitarianism etc

You’ve likely heard about the cost of living crisis. But wait a sec ... What's this so-called ‘cost’ of living? Are you telling me that there is a price tag to *being alive*?
And what if you can’t afford that price tag? That cost of being alive? Then … you die?? 😱
We discuss the morbid, twisted logic of cost of living in our latest episode: https://vulnerablebydesign.net/chatgpt-and-existential-angst/
Destruction 700 trees along the East River + 100 year old London Plane tree - New York City...
Reckless destruction of 700 trees along the East River is a nightmare of
● Misguided planning
● fascist design
● textbook municipal over-reach...
...who kills old trees in the name of “Climate Resilience” ?
New York City, that’s who.
Friends. We are protecting trees in the East River Park.
Some of us went into the construction site on Thursday and stopped (for a while) the destruction of a 100 year old London Plane tree named Mathilde.
Event was: Sunday Jan 15 at 3pm, 36 Ave C at East 3rd with Songs from: Change Without Us'

Despite contacting them multiple times, #ThreeUK is still blocking access to Tutanota.
We have now made an official complaint to #Ofcom.

It was a pleasure to visit Coopers Lane Primary School to talk about the Tube Mapper photography books & to check out the London Underground train that they have in their playground.
The 1975 D-Stock carriage was donated by TfL & installed by MaceGroup in 2016.

Systems don't care - can't care... Scaling is very dangerous in the end...
Systems don't care much...
................can't care much...
Scaling is dangerous... and almost nonexistent / neg benefit in the end...
Scaling makes things worse if not tak8ng care of smaller things and including human feelings with it in the equation...
MORE ON THAT.....
So any grand design or scaling without individualism embedded simply can't care and has but a limited subset of individual caring (which would be consent, customisation, more conversation etc for individuals, also together)...
...change needed (it seems) to the extent that any system would be more indivisualistic than a system... sort of proving my point that a system is by nature bad for individual needs and inherently non-human to detriment of all
Systems of focus may seem good at beginning (like we lived 10 years ago or even now) but still the bad or even worse is thete in the end more than actually anyone person or entity wanting to work out individuality individually and being a lot more accepting as a start!
Hard one... but I go for individual happiness and care as root to everything else happening "slowly but surely" and with less imoersonal big jumps... but it does need investment (like all things) and probably morals and acceptance needed with it which often perhaps people don't want!
No amount of official intervention will trump it's own authority...
No amount of official intervention will trump it's own authority.
(Most of the time it will rebrand it, give it's own excuses and resell it under a different name or different business model but essentially using similar mentality.) @gretathunberg
Think Globally. Act Individually.
Think Globally. Act Individually.
(Maybe 'Locally' but people ain't ready / need to choose themself to align as it's too much energy and conflict for little gain in my long experience)
MORE IS JUST BLAH BELOW...
So not waiting for "United" Nations, scientists or anyone elseare to go against the capitalist grain from which they exist from. YOU literally have to start from the beginning or do your own habit change or ' local action ' to get earn your own justice by how you do things.
No amount of official intervention will trump it's own authority.
Most of the time it will rebrand it, give it's own excuses and resell it under a different name.
Acting Individually means
□ use wash-rags instead of toilet paper
□ use a bucket for water catching (not letting water go down the sink / plug hole. □ Using bathwater by putting water in a buckets for cleanIng dishes and then rinsing with clean water.
All the small things decreases the consumption of water, bill$, demand, transport, pumps etc...
