I'm using <10kb JPG files for what can be safely auto-scaled, like big text and line drawings...

Ask if you want bigger version - but right now it's saving the planet being 10's of KB less per post in transit and storage...

<1Kb for this post and pic! :thumbsup_hmn_h2: :computerfairies:

"If there is a you want to read and it hasn't been written yet, you must be the one to write it." - Toni Morrison

What would you write?

If you had to write you OWN BOOK leaving some learned lessons, what would it be about?

Mottos:"Wearing the enemy down" + "Wolf in Sheep's Clothing"... 

The Fabian Society founded the London School of Economics in 1895.

A lot of extremes or reactions to things in History (don't say Hitler) have some good and bad points to take from (stripping some unwanted parts sometimes... )...

Because either way the war continues (didn't stop after WW") and just became civilized instead.

So the "nice"civil wars people have to fight also instead of following others blind and paying blind 🤑 to "yet another bad thing, oh my God isn't it bad" 💰 (Just keep paying them?)

LAUGH OR CRY ?
If you don't know whether to laugh of cry about something... try do both about the subject...

"The longer way" or "taking the high road" is often worth your own reasons...

In modern times of 'free' and 'easy'... it's *easy* to do bad work, for *free*. -

That (part below) reminds me of Heinlein’s The Puppet Masters, where even after an entire city has been taken over by mind-controlling parasites, parasitised businessmen still have to go to parasitised bankers to get business loans.

from original post:
“Depending on your point of view, you could say this all shows that banks and finance — in the very broadest sense — are not only natural but hardwired into life; something very similar has been going on, silently but profoundly, for millions of years, and it has shaped the world around us.”

" And, really, you could rearrange these facts to tell a more lefty, socialist kind of story: the trees in the forest cooperating, pooling their resources to achieve common goals. I didn’t mention it in the article (it was getting long enough already), but there’s evidence that trees may use the network for something that looks like altruism — as in, trees may divert resources to support trees that are injured or sick. So it’s not all tooth-and-claw. "

I’ve been at odds a long time with Adam Smith. Yes, our beastly nature has capitalism built in, and it’s worked for crude propagation. We aren’t , or . We have this fancy little knob on the top of us that’s supposed to have a function.

Those seeding trees are mothers, something fringe capitalist literature is only now addressing. Spore drive, indeed.

I don't fit very well in other people's boxes and packages. □ ⌂ ▲ ◊ ♥ ◊ ▲ ⌂ □

Other people's measurements and metrics are for their directives, objectives and rational.... They lose me almost completely as a result and should involve me and people, more willing to debate about what we are doing and who it's for...?

(ANSWER: for us and the next generations...?)

Ask yourself why you are doing what you do.


Some human company in measured amounts can make the whole world a lot warmer and fun!...

Reality is there but we dance around it a bit usually in the mind and occasionally physically using the fire as a focus...

Stopping comments for people who don't reply, engage or build. Give notice optionally... because,,, 

...many don't care for 2-way communication, and that's important for you time... and you projects to link up too.

So people not engaging

☑️ shows contentment in their work and world and not much extending actively the time to anyone else's world or work.

☑️ outputting to internet more blind, half complaining and wanting for more but not willing to do any human work around it (half of Tech people perhaps - sorry it's not accurate numbers but "lots").

Overall 0 reply will be more evident as signal and you can focus effort on those that care...

It is about attention seeking if we are to make world better together somewhat almost like talking to bots for profiles - which is kind of ok if people have that as it's clear, but for those that pick and choose about who to reply to, not great.

Let the zero's rain! :cc_zero:

Happy to hear thoughts on "strategy" which is more about not letting myself be disappointed / managing expectations. I do give notice sometimes too so it's a chance to explain or not total disservice even in the exit / leaving them to it...

Liquid from bottles - Sucking is fun! 

Liquid from bottles especially sucking from by reducing the flow with lips, is !

Seems to have something of a feel or about it too.

Small high pressure intake... and also playing with food making it last or more enjoyable (brain)...

Also like having something plastic as chew toy related to or but more indirectly... action helps.

is to love each other's + /- points more than what we do as individuals and as society today.

It is needed to spreading and practise much more unity (despite being different). ❤️ 🌐

Perfect people don't complain and don't fight... and don't exist.

Imperfection allows (or creates) an imperfect circle where human eco-systems and other fun things can exist only in this domino of imperfect circles.

are . No?

And shouldn't we let you/them enjoy that a bit more

If perfection is your aim, reconsider.

Perfecting IS OK (the endless art of learning) but AMONGST , NO.

IS ALSO CLOSE TO OR ANGER / INTOLERANCE / WITHDRAWING SERVICE & FRIENDSHIP.

ACCEPT AND ENJOY HUMAN AS A FACT ITSELF.

Actually appreciate that imperfection allows (or creates) an imperfect circle where human eco-systems and other fun things can exist only in this spiralling out and domino of imperfect circles.
