Donations - How... Using Money / Not Using Money...?.... 

Nobody wants to consistently pay for what's free... it's perfectly logical and part of the ethics too not to pay... for saving... for efficiency... for sharing... for the love more than anything.

But then what to do inside a debt based system / financial realm?... even temporarily
...we have to think of what next / how

^--------This is the trouble I'm having, to avoid thinking about people starving from actually loving what they do and getting deeper into that poorer way (although it makes total sense on the love-for-it basis that you're 'poorer' the more you give and actually with basics the ratio of giving I think could be a lot more if we could assume controlling ourselves a bit not to over-give!)...

NOT RELYING ON DONATIONS is ideal because that is also politically back to square 1 with what we don't like as creators and also why we hesitate to donate as users because

- yeah we're tight, but also we don't like
- corporate providers
- accumulation of power / authority / institutes
- banks/debt,
- power/control/regulation/authority/tracking
- affiliation/being hunted/shut-downs,
- middlemen, taxes / cost to send, etc
- basically no love uncaring people benefiting in the middle who we're usually working against
- Taxes / fees / cost to send
- PAYING FOR THINGS YOU CAN COPY DIGITALLY etc

SO then we have to think:
- what next for people like that, doing things for these types of reasons...?

- And so the uncaring stuff and uncaring people put to one side...

also the other side is

- How to give love back? What are the ways?
( I can love what I do but nobody cares about that probably or even if I'm alive - maybe there are too many contributors to take up people's place to actually value them - and how to offer more than thanks to people about what else they need or love! )

So with the 2 halves above (mainly uncaring people vs love more than money) THE TOTAL = NO MONEY DONATED (both for good and bad reasons)

HOW DO I SEE AN ANSWER?

I'd like to say donate love, but I think most don't know what that is in my book since they are too scared to appreciate people even to say thanks / explore / talk about it.... but yes they are also others giving their work, but also selling their time most of the day (so back almost to square 1 again almost). Giving love for me means totally out of your way or planned time away from banksters in the middle ('non-professionally' giving) and amateur style ('for the love of it' looking at things fresh)

I can see it would be good to pay each other somehow... but any ideas of most perfect way right now more
So I mean not paypal right, any better-money ways

And non-money ways ? Everyone doing what they can and hoping that reduces monetary costs? But doesn't taxing us constantly mean we're always going to be losing / never having enough?

THE SOLUTION?

Donate time to each other, give love how we can...
but I think don't know what that that is (they read giving love as sex probably)... unless you can learn to live and talk to people more actively and give time freely with other people... while other people want you to pay even if it's free / very cheap already (like the earth and even having a lot of money this is still hard to let go of or not be scared about).

If not even willing to talk or give time and props (Proper respect)
it's really a problem (hmm)
And I guess only when it doesn't work people complain more... which makes sense... lack attention and money when it works right!

OVERALL

I see this as a good question about what to do and what next for people, what to do with people who do what they love and don't want to market prostitution / prostituting what they love?
Especially if it's in the digital world want to stay alive ETC. Maybe one big house to stick all these people into? :D

For those who have talked to each other more personally and increase relativity by giving time often to solve this, thanks and let me know!

EXTRA EXTERNAL THINGS ON TOP

External people are also doing 2 main things

- blocking love / blocking free being given
(by making 100 rules what not to do + making things have to be sold / bought, even people's time)

- Making so many rules and regulations that indirectly making ANY other way mean some rule is going to be broken / blocking you

It's similar to not allowing people to do anything but government's ways! And they obvious are not very caring!

Would be good if 'thanks' paid the bills... :)

.... or like some middle-eastern culture we look up to the sky and say:

'FOR THE LOVE OF ALMIGHTY I GIVE' OR JUST
'FOR THE SPIRIT OF MANKIND, HERE TAKE IT I HAVE EXTRA ANYWAY'
'FOR THE UNIVERSE'

like some kind of constant good-will, perpetual aura, yin yang or universal kudos!

If you can talk for 10mins - get in touch. I know it might kill you to talk to a human but we're actually losing ourselves I think each day (not just in tech but in distance that chatting glues back together) we don't give time to random others...

click the direct message button and look up to the sky with palms open after tooting and say 'for relativity' I send an invitation to talk to another human... about what's important to us all (see title if you forgot!)
