#Access Is #Love for those that allow and enable other people...

Love for everyone in the creation and #access.

It can be hard to remember absolutely everyone (even to this post picture) but remembering and practising with others help developing better #habits for the way!

It is possible to add #AltText or take advice.

#FreeSchool hashtag is about developing 'Better people' so that #habits are the way towards that 'better' with people's own logic and understanding along the way how it #includes everyone.

#Access Is Love - Build a world where #access and #accessibility is an act of love.

Text and short-depth understanding isn't doing it for saving humanity. So learning and your own action / direction is important. To get better examples that lies parents were fed or chose not to face.

MORE.... OR JUST RESPOND TO ABOVE PLEASE...

I feel like Short-text / Short-reading by people directly undervalues people and longer understanding - it's cutting corners reading only short things and proportionally killing the planet / cutting people who write more off.

That's why I'd like to do audio conversation now... (anytime) so we don't get stuck in the text realm either and just speak lightly in the ethereal / spirit of life.

People are the depth and action of the culture so if text is not deep enough then culture dies. Audio conversation I have can put back the reality into people.

Just sticking to yourself dosn't work. We can solve almost everything as our efforts can double if we are relaxed but do it constantly over tiem... it's OK "it's all political" (!) and our opinions too... so letting go too far into "Politics" of "Leaders" is not the way we want to go... as a #centralised system (of control)

Your decisions can be made and changed doing short depth + short depth (=long!) which can reinforce those bad things less by seeing the depth in tricks (like chess it's "aha! I realise why they made that move now") .

Don't let "Short-ism" make you think it works for you (it's the opposite). Communicate more and build normal people up. - Increase more #sense and #society but socialising incrementally like at a party.

The 'human condition' needs A HUMAN WAY OF FIXING THINGS in a social-communal situation... not a ultra-tech way.
We have #Mastodon and #Jitsi etc - we just need to increase trust step by step and measure ourselves as we go.

🙎 Develop people, not just the tech! 💻 ✈️ 📱

I'm working with anyone aligned / those that know themselves or want to as it's a natural human thing we need to solve (not just tech etc).

Get in touch and even have fun with it all!

==============================
More description
==============================

The Free School movement I feel is "the best way" for people as a transient flexible "school" of fish / people in life because it's YOUR way and your likes mixed in however you want guided by others in the same class or other t give another perspective..

As long as you trust yourself and trust a few others more while measuring while mixing, then it's all good and essential can't be bad - especially from these distances.

Opposite of the above would be: working isolated in a loop... without encouraging contact ...working for bad people / state
...while not giving back or seeing what others have to give
...and reading the news in a bad loop #doomscrolling as I do (and need your help to get out of!) ... only to complain about my adding to it.

So feeding yourself better comes building others in trust and people upwards not downwards pushing. Therefore:

Mutuality, Education, and maybe Friendship can help 🎈 WIN:WIN:WIN 🎈 for us all in this world ...or at least #Fediverse to start with.

📖 Towards a more caring intelligent planet and better mindset of people... but also not over-specialising...

I'm here to broaden your like as a friendly person and to encourage your own thoughts *and* action to happen.
We need to be appreciated and appreciate a few more - that alone is enough!

More togetherness means more ☑️ correct communication ☑️
to get there (and balance)...

Short "ism" or short reading by people kills the planet and those people don't read deeply and fall into newspaper tabloid headlines (also short) and reacting too much almost as an #addiction.

#CONSTRUCT YOUR #DREAMS !

Build your dream(s) and maybe mine at the same time (both!).

Don't be afraid to share - even though it might be natural to try pull back. I don't think there is another way around this by carefully sharing and doing it with bad people filtered out (but not everyone filtered out as we all lose that way being cut off) .

Aagain measuring me and you (and others) we can avoid killing ourselves and others killing us (directly and indirectly) for profit (it's all linked back to banks and state who as root don't #care). So while we pretend to be '#independent' (which doesn't exist or very lightly does) I think we can truly undo things 1 at a time or just by not using things too much like #AI etc.

Those who feed from #mainstream (from the people behind it) surely will mess up again and see less and less gains over time). Short-term some AI benefit but long term chained-to-machine type stuff and robots judging us (robots are just people / leaders behind it controlling..)

🗨️ I reply to your interests and you give some ideas... we do what we can and like... more freely / towards each other's freedoms.

Consider *developing people* (or just me) at the same time in your work also - not just #developing machine code, but #decent people are the KEY to everything almost FOREMOST...

If people's lives are machine-like and computer-orientated then don't complain if that's what you get !

The cold Matrix system is all using $computers and #tech.

And that tech is being bought or regulated by the likes of #Musk / #Trump / #Bezos etc mostly since they have more leverage against everyone and using #banks also as negative force / debt generators.

In the end we lose with only tech, even with Mastodon without regular chats!

(yes computers are too fast and even nice things get used badly but only we can stop it (by developing better people to use better things in a better way). Give me a hammer and I won't break windows.

Working on better people is the better way at the end..

#Quote by @daraghhayes @daraghhayes

#FreeSchool comment and picture below:

General level of public people is so bad right now (and maybe always was) and shirks so much responsibility it is like handing life on a plate on all levels (not just #war) ,

#Responsible #Humans #Needed not just for #Gaza

ℹ️ #ALTTEXT for pic below (or can skip reading the rest):

Title says: "Here take it all - As long as I sit here and do nothing. Here, take it as much as you want"

This is said by a perceived average Human Consumer towards those so-called leaders just extracting from the planet (and it's people).

There is a butler style silver tray under the title with the earth damaged and broken served on top (I drew this as people seem to let Earth get to this and not defend their habitat or own rights). This post exists as the level of intelligence or willpower to fight or make friends I see and hear is too low and main problem in life is to solve that and make friends / help out (which is why I'm on #Fediverse).

(ironically I couldn't apply the AltText due to some server issue currently so I'll retry / re-post later)

Imagine a #game where you give #love and grow things along the way and get points for how you do things simply or carefully... not just #chess without knowing. And even helping others...

#Helping but not over-doing it... (could get penalty for that or reduce the relationship points for example!)

Having respect for things while playinginstead of damaging things and people's habitat as the basis of #life.

Can you imagine / want to make it happen just to talk about? (just as a start?). @freemo ?

Lots of people can reply to this to show they are interested even partially. I think we need to see and represent, more even if not doing all of it.

Why not the way things are now?
Not killing things is good and not doing damage as the primary focus as chess seems to be and also life as almost the same #extractive / #conquering parallel. We need love.

In life there is also #damage, #loss and #consumption but we can do it much less of it today or together at some point, agree ? ❓

I know you do! Let me know!
Because you love every day and many people too! Just need a way to grow that even as a side "job".

Not only doing what goes towards capturing the #king or #land for #petroleum fields, #bombing for #war #energy. Not killing #Kings #Queens across the world for almost empty victories only to start another empty chess match to try checkmate more #people.

Something with me, "love" and respect at the end involved! I'll give you lots of points for a kind of better game in life! #Palestine #Gaza #Kurds #Congo #Africa #Vietnam etc!

Giving #respect / Growing #love
as game. as small part of life?
(this is the basis of #FreeSchool overall)

All of us in the end could be so much more "Legendary" in our own way for living out our stories with clearer quests and not just totally falling for #Capitalism and progressing damaging / extractive types of tricks.

" You might be tempted to avoid the messiness of daily living for the tranquility of stillness and peacefulness. This of course would be an attachment to stillness, and like any strong attachment, it leads to delusion. It arrests development and short-circuits the cultivation of wisdom. "

"... it requires a design process in which many actors can participate - people with technical expertise, as well as those with lived expertise, domain expertise, organizing expertise, and #community #history expertise. It also means shifting the overarching goal of such #projects from “doing good with #data” to designing for co-#liberation. [...]

Rather than framing acts of #technical #service as benevolence or #charity, the goal of co-liberation requires that those technical workers acknowledge that they are engaged in a struggle for their own #liberation as well, even and especially when they are members of dominant groups."

MORE BELOW - COMMENTS SEPARATE GENERALLY

#FreeSchool says: "For me it's about developing better emotionally intelligent people (#EmotionalIntelligence) not just developing #Technology and developing #STEM...

The Tech way would be very lop-sided and in-human, and I think we're seeing that with tons of people doing Tech while leaving humanity without proper human interaction and communication developed.

Isn't it a wonder how much money goes into other things more than caring / developing people or to really listening to problems. Sure it's not profitable and that's why unhappiness continues [as a result of profit].
You could see profit as inverted measure of damage to nature and it's people (directly or indirectly as #habitat / #urban #environment / #climate or again lop-sided human #development... for more profit and less happiness).

More #emotionally #intelligent #decisionmakers are needed for the way so it's WITH others going forward to understand better and make better decisions (in their own life / company and externally with others). So many projects fall apart for example due to #emotional issues in groups...

Tech is abusing and also taking advantage of these kinds of default "idiots" (untrained but clever people in a few compartmentalized fields or #specialists) and less emotionally intelligent people are not excluded from lesser human intelligence overall). Yes it could be you doing A LOT of one thing and never the other...

================
TECH IS POLITICAL...
[MY ADDED COMMENT]
================

Tech is political if money, the people behind it and profit are a measurement.
"No wonder" how much money goes into #STEM more than caring about people / listening to problems at the same time. It's proportional profit to not caring / developing better people / principles, as Tech can skip and cut that out to serve owners agenda.
Doesn't help that #jobs help #compartmentalise everything to whatever trigger chain it wants to make, and anyone in a job shrugs to say "it's not my business" to care for the rest of the people / life.

=======
SUMMARY: I think it is our "job" to care even if #states don't pay for it...
=======

Can expect any $tate looking for it's own money to really care or take less money from people as time goes on (instead of more using banks (negative #maths), #STEM, etc..)

Comments appreciated.

Money Did Not Come From Barter - It Came From Blood Feuds

- Professor L. Randall Wray

📼 https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=X-D5FERQzU4

Professor L. Randall Wray, discussing the origin of money, which forms the foundational conception of money in Modern Monetary Theory. The usual origin story for money as given by economists is that humans began by bartering in markets, but that this was difficult because of the "double coincidence of wants" problem: I have to have something you want and you have to have something I want, right now, or else we can't trade.

From this, a medium of exchange is selected by an evolutionary process, beginning with seashells and beads, and eventually settling on gold.

Then, the story goes, people discover that gold is sort of burdensome to carry and difficult to protect, so they arrange to keep it with the village goldsmith. The goldsmith hands out receipts, and people realize that these receipts can be used as money in place of the gold. This is, supposedly the beginning of paper money. Then the goldsmith realizes that not everybody will come to claim their gold on the same day, so the goldsmith can create receipts from thin air and spend or lend them as money. This is, supposedly, the origin of bank lending, or credit money.

The biggest problem with this story is that there's no historical evidence for it whatsoever, nor do we observe barter-based markets today within the tribal societies that are still around. The reason is obvious: if you're living in a small tribe, you know everybody. You don't need exact, proportional, spot-trade equivalence of the kind used in barter if you're doing all of your business with your cousin, or your neighbor. In practice, we find that these kinds of societies arrange themselves along informal credit relations: I'll help you out a bit here, then you'll help me out with something else later.

This is problematic for the barter story because it doesn't involve quantitative relations, ie. there are no prices. When you are engaged in repeated informal credit with your cousin, you don't need to keep track of exactly who owes whom how much, nor what kind of goods are exactly equivalent to other goods.

The time when you DO want exact proportional equivalence is during punishment for crimes. This is the ancient tribal tradition of "weregild," or "man price," in which tribal societies would draw up detailed codes of law specifying fines imposed for specific crimes. Without these kinds of legitimated official punishments, violence would tend to cycle into blood feuds. Weregild is instituted in tribal societies to stop the blood feuds and revenge cycles.

So while exchange of goods for daily subsistence involved no prices, these lengthy schedules of fines would have exact, detailed prices for everything to be found in the village, to tell you what sort of payment would absolve you of your crimes. If the prices weren't viewed as fair, then the warring families would not be satisfied and the revenge would ensue.

From these fine schedules arises naturally the concept of the "unit of account," that is, money as a social measuring unit, which is used to measure the value of things. Almost always a measure of a weight of grain, this could serve as a common basis for specifying fines. Ie. cutting off somebody's ear would require paying 50 shekels, while cutting off their nose would require 70 shekels, etc, which a detailed listing of how many shekels a chicken was worth, how many a cow was worth, etc.

Next, as societies grew larger such that not everybody knew all of their neighbors, the concept of rough credit equivalence was transformed into exact credit. That is, instead of an informal IOU between neighbors, you could record (in some form) an IOU for an exact quantity, and this IOU could be transferable. These IOUs would get denominated in the unit of account used for the schedule of fines, and connote a obligation for general value ('you owe somebody something worth 50 shekels') rather than a specific good ('you owe me 10 pigs').

And finally, the schedule of fines would be managed by some sort of authority, which today we would call "the state." Fines might have originally began as payments to the victim's family, but along the way became payments directly to the authority, for use in the "public purpose." The authority could also issue IOUs in exchange for goods, and did so. When authorities would levy these fines, they would have realized that they could require the fine to be paid in the authority's own IOU, which would create a demand for that IOU (also denominated in the unit of account). The authority would be able to spend its IOUs to anybody in the community, then that person would spend that IOU with the person who owed the fine, and finally that person would use that IOU to satisfy the fine.

Today we call these state #IOUs "currency" and we carry them around in our wallets.

#Mastodon software without #Friendship / #Trust building is a dead social engine.

This is also a reflection of real life, so while it's not Mastodon's fault, the software only solves ~50%, and now we have it, we have to work on making friends with ourselves and he world.
