=====================
WHAT WE ALL WANT FROM OF THESE WORDS.... BECAUSE WE'RE HUMAN - I THINK THEREFORE I AM...
=====================

We all want for love / care / respect "or else" the opposites start to occur like cancer (various levels) and things (people) get left neglected and also untrained.

We let the bad in by not doing the good basically as it's a kind of maintenance / repair-as-you go.
NOT just "we wait until it's fully broken!" or when person gets suicidal!)
Just the way things are and how things get without caring and doing the people work in every level of life during everything.

As much as you "don't have time" all these things (or their opposites) do catch up - so this is actually saving your time when you family or project doesn't fall apart!!! The damage is reduced / people don't waste our time later or bad things happen still but not without healthy use of healthy ways and even disconnection can be done better at the end and lessons learned much better ! So to practise talking now (at whatever level) pays off in the end to do more careful work together / constructing something beyond

==========================
CAPITALISM IS BETTER FASTER NO?
=========================
Capitalism also as we have learned CAPITALISM DOESN'T WORK - it does care for what you think or choose - it's mostly authoritarian and profit-minded.

===================
START YOUR OWN SYSTEM
===================
It can mean starting something from this perspective that communication is better - because it's true many people just won't listen - but who is also offering or training people in these things - maybe you with this printed!

Yu literally have to create life yourself if it doesn't exist (on top of existing very pure sources, like I did with this list from the dictionary !!
=============
THE END RESULT?
=============
Once you as individually and family learn to print and share these things (stick on your fridge/door), it's techniques and sentiments can "live on themselves" (in others)...

WHY YOU TEACH ME ANYTHING - YOU'RE PROFILE IS A JOKE!

Love / care / respect is an intentional system, individually carried out for overall humanity - I'm not an NGO or anything big but as a human I stand or good - measurably, words and actions.

This can also start with you and more people taking just 1 picture and having the atmosphere of it reach others (give peaceful words a chance?)... We just needs humans to spread it somewhat and daily conversations get better as and people talk more and pass better words on

Sticking it up somewhere (friedge or wall) as is a good conversation point and piece of interest / meditation / discussion during dinner etc.

=====================
LOVE GOES OUT AND COMES BACK AROUND AND IN.
=====================
💌 Much love goes out to humanity, get in contact if interested... 💌

We know how it feels without love of various kinds (at work, home, outside) - so let's not neglect any of these smaller things - I'm not even talking big "love" / hippyness, but the smaller things and bigger efforts to improve vocabulary and practice it at home / on the internet as group chats etc... all can be a better therapy 💌

====================
WHY THESE WORDS?
====================
"System of Love" is from a list I collected over the years in my own relationships and looked them all up either from my words, partners or observations (everyone in my life!)

Related to love, care and respect needed between people more words are sometimes very crucial in heated battles or complex situations... learn well as it makes for less anger or else all hell breaks loose! 😃

Boost :boost: 🚀 if you would like to see more of these things practised in life.

=====================
ALSO FOR THE SCIENCE TYPES
=====================
and perhaps are not alway emotionally minded or trained so it's also for people who dont' get exposed to why it's important to talk (to human, not just computers!).
Even as a science or biology consider of that mainly starts and ends with emotions (human input ouput) - check out Bruce Liption!

That goes beyond externally programming machines and more capitalistic styles of hiring people just to get stuff done - because computers and capitalism are without caring mostly and don't ask or design around what people think - it's mostly top-down authoritative (at least in modern day STEM).

Learning love (or to love others) or even to fight well, isn't exactly what school teaches everyone so we need these kinds of posters and reminders...

====================

▌Authentic Communication practice.

▌Developed by the people intentionally who join.

▌The intention together is to increase the trust in practising communication and feelings with others and train ourselves better communication and learn techniques while accepting risk or offense is naturally part of like but a needed effort towards growing better people.

====================
Verbal Description
====================

Growing better communication might sound odd but people are increasingly becoming faster but more shallow in communicating assisted by government and technology cutting out the depths of understanding each other and simply being work based. The human sides itself are being omitted and therefore the human details and care taken out / left out.

Much like Capitalism's practices a cold system doesn't care and wants for only money and work based "work" and uses Technology (Robotic short text communication) to achieve raw work while undoubtedly humans are involved and need care or just respect.

❌ Stakes are often too high outside or offline in-person - this risks your safety (your job / livelihood and risks relationships tied to many things non-detachable unlike online presence)

✔️ / ❌ ? Offline spaces don't exist anymore as funding has been cut and we also need to solve that.

This means some risk in trying (as with offline) and developing feelings rather than falling into the trap of argument is going to save us all a lot in the future if we would like to try learn it and hear others doing well.

Doing with others helps improve us all especially since there is almost nothing like this which you don't have to pay for.

This is a free service for the betterment of yourself and others from past works sourced from people like David Baum and T-group style conversations (have a definite template and Round Robin style meetup online)

The idea here is you can practice more safely where you can't at work and even at home because the understanding and focus

#Introduction my blurb 

Freedom is also about undoing what has tricked us (put in place before we were born and somewhat enslaved or bound by). Learning regularly helps get your more understanding and rewards morality to get back some sense of meaning since much has been extracted out almost completely as part of pure-profit programmes or generally re-iterating power and control techniques.

The rest to read is just extra. If you hate detail probably this is good for you.

Learning our geniune individuality and respecting it is some of the most essential parts of life!!!!!

------------ EXTRA BITS BELOW ---------
Right now in 2023 I've taken a back seat to the talking to people or giving feedback to everyone, and so given up while not totally given up.

I think education together is a major way.
Some of us speed up and have to wait for others to catch up or not try over-try too hard also to keep the peace often covered up or under the surface.

Free School has been proven over my lifetime as not needing to wait or only believe in others first. DIY = Do It Yourself or at least start... and then the advice or questions come anyway... Start snd Finish fast and people can see better there is progress... often the only thing stopping people in starting anything.

You can interact and ask. We 2 can make best together as free as possible to reach somewhere in thought where alone we might not so quickly.

I mostly create / edit community education audio podcast / music / videos / transcript text etc for good people or other podcasts.

Am offline more than on but still get msgs and still reply here- might take longer than I mention below

I do your audio / film work too for free if it's for the good. I can do it offline which is good.

MORE IF YOU LIKE...
Our place in the world is helped by others.
We enable it for others and some forge ahead anyway.

If you're interested in life this helps! get in touch if you are as I like everything or to talk about it helps the world indirectly and directly!

playing (have a real board and microphone? Let's play!)
(Self-improvement and awareness)
(Onion skins of realisation / discovery)
food (Greenhouse and outside)

Living / Natural Life
Engineering (like fixing computers but with willing people instead)

/ Care / Consideration (towards unity in human family and the 'how?')
(Harmonising and balance)
and

editing / moderating (group meetings / personal conversations)

All genuine interest. I'm also responsive, so whatever you're thinking I don't mind.

Words of wisdom (MY WORDS):

Everything is easier when you test it
Everything is easier when you know *how* to test it
Everything is clearer when you give it more time and respect.
Everything is easier when you know what it's for and what it means to others (both how to test / ask and how to respect)...

Everything is easier when you know how... yes so participation with me or others allows you to know things, then it's easier and clearer to make your decision(s).

Humans effect everything much more globally (now that money etc funnels things more than ever) and often it's a copy of people getting coralled into the same bad ways (the Gov template of catching it's fishes) - we need to know the bad / good and apply the right stuff daily so we don't get eaten alive.

I personally help whoever with almost anything mutual, it's your 'job' to enjoy what you like AND explore other things - I just ask and say what I like also.

I also edit other people's audio and video as basic cut and re-arrange them into different order for best bits or the wanted parts / highlights + name or transcribe them (audio to text).

------

I might ask why you want to follow me so be ready to say (0 engagement I don't understand the point of)

I'm here to make change, yours, mine, others.
What are you here for / Find out here / explore yourself...

I have zero comprehension how. Literally none. How does a convicted fraud, felon, rapist even get to be a candidate, let alone get any votes?

When a politician attacks a particular race it's obvious they are racist and trying to use identity politics.
When a politician attacks other groups, like trans people, they are still trying to use identity politics.
Never let them acuse others of identity politics.

#HumanNature - We need more than family or job connections... and avoid distance or put-downs between us... 

- can keep others at a distance in various ways naturally.

need work constantly and human energy to be maintained - or else they get cold 🔫 🥶

If not working on each other it can soon be the opposite or slowly slide downwards... 🗻

Truth is many didn't know how to do other than the default family bloodline type or work extensions as the only other relationships
- rather extending more to do it with everyone without only heavy so it doesn't fall apart when family or job changes...

falls apart when not embracing people to help them individually (and the individual to help community also).

@freeschool Read this book and you may discover that the "system" you think you are fighting has already manipulated all parties in the struggle. You are up against the technocratic authoritarians & surveillance state. The colours red & blue and their respective teams are just a mirage to disable all resistance under the illusion of choice.

I did it! My book on the history of the #Atari Jaguar is finished and freely available for download over at archive dot org. It took me a while to get there, and I enjoyed every minute of it. I hope you will appreciate and enjoy it as well. Let me know what you think and I would be thankful if you would share this post.

Ramble about Strictly Limited Games 

If I may give a recommendation to those of you who might be interested: Do not buy from Strictly Limited Games. I ordered Steel Empire Chronicles 1,5 years ago, and it is still not in production. There was one lousy mail regarding this that I almost forgot already. So I asked them to either tell me when this is gonna happen or refund me. They did neither, but at least responded in a timely manner. Now I replied and hope that I'll get a least my money back. Looking over at TrustPilot, I saw that I am not the only one having issues with them. If it wasn't clear that the concept of paying for something you can maybe get in maybe a few months isn't a good one before, now it's pretty evident to me. I had some fun with Limited Run Games before, but at least they always delivered and I didn't wait more than a year. Still, that was already not my cup of tea. But I thought: SLG is a German based company, so this should work out way smoother. Well ... no. The idea has just turned into companies that run on Kickstarters that aren't Kickstarters, basically: Money up front and we'll see what we can do afterwards. This is some late stage capitalism madness 😂. But even if you as a company decide to hang out your customers to dry, at least have the courtesy to communicate! Tell us on where it's at with a game that can't be shipped. And for that - funny side note mentioned in their response to me - I should subscribe to their newsletter, as if it would help me in any way reading new Ford brochures if my ordered vehicle did not arrive as ordered. You get the idea. Too bad, I once liked the idea very much. From now on, if you come my way with anything that includes exchanging money for a ticket on a waiting list basically, I will bid you adieu 😎

🧠 #Psychology and showing your #Mentality and #Mindset is probably the hardest things to do. But most needed. 

It probably seems the riskiest to empty and put it on the table but actually nobody cares or there are too many...

So if people *could* care actually this can open up sharing inside the mindset that can keep some of us together who are dedicated to repairing things (people actually). We're all who need a bit of tuning.

And that's the point. PEOPLE ARE WHAT NEED REPAIR MORE THAN EVER. ⚙️ :xmen:
