Governments don’t work for the people, they work for Corporations and Big Money
the most glaring example is the USA, the money goes to wars abroad while own people die abandoned on the streets.
Steve Martin is a comic genius. A #Quote...
Steve Martin recalls reading a treatise on comedy that led him to think:
" What if there were no punch lines? What if there were no indicators? What if I created tension and never released it? What if I headed for a climax, but all I delivered was an anticlimax? What would the audience do with all that tension? Theoretically, it would have to come out sometime. But if I kept denying them the formality of a punch line, the audience would eventually pick their own place to laugh, essentially out of desperation.[21]"
----------------------------------
Martin periodically spoofed his philosophy studies in his 1970s stand-up act, comparing philosophy with studying geology.
"If you're studying geology, which is all facts, as soon as you get out of school you forget it all, but philosophy you remember just enough to screw you up for the rest of your life.[22]"
Steve Martin is a comic genius. Here’s a ‘personalised’ letter he used to send out to fans.

@CSB@noauthority.social Hahaaa you wrote "because I said so" and then deleted it. You're acting like a victim now and trying to reduce my expression instead of dealing with points not really related to you.

@experimentmapass I didn't catch the first sentence, Can you say it again it doesn't seem to make sense.
But I understand the 2nd sentence.
Positive words = Positivity (or Negative = Negativity)
@CSB@noauthority.social .
This is more between me and Pat (not you CSB). You're calling him names, similar to me and so involved us by not being careful or caring how you talk.
I sent caring warned yesterday (and before) so sending me a warning about blocking me is not learning from that and would prove the point you're not interested in the changing the behaviour. shrug.
It's constructive so don't take it as serious as your own swearing which you let fly everywhere damaging people.
I'm working on fixing relationships in general so don't worry it's not focus on you only, obviously it has same results if you do the same to others. VERY OBVIOUS but did you forget?
It's no longer personal with you but I continue the quest for peace and understanding, not just "I don't give a fuck" or 'jez sorry' and doing the same or threats of blocking (your first reply and then reply after saying "3 sentences or less"). A disaster for solving things....
Anyway as a reminder: you have many good points and this one just doesn't match at all, so upto you (block or not, it's the behaviour and negative results you encourage in others calling them bad things / being out of context / unfriendly).
I am contributing to more healthier conversation. Join in with that.
I had similar experience with CSB yestrday and once before that... (he apologized but I see it again today - just mentioning to learn from it all)...
@ThatCrazyDude @CSB@noauthority.social @silas
I explained similar before... but seems he just continues fine after like he never attacked you... it's stranger (but perhaps more than usual) and still I want to solve that in people who usually do it when more than just a suggestion for app or something is made (it's more obvious here as it's totally innocent from you or another person but from other similar it can come out later down the line when you think your friends and they attack like that).
I did a DM explaining this which is why this message is not behind his back or yours, and I feel you are also asking the same as I did - so maybe he can see language can waste time and feelings and yeah 'kind be yourself and don't give too many fucks" but do see it waste time and feelings. People also do attack back also it's wise prevention to have more of a limit/respect for others or just for one's self in being more clear / less swearing unless much more clear / longtime-friends already.
Leaving suggestions for developers on Fediverse.., via hashtags, direct messages to developers, other interested users...
@leo I think you've done well enough to add hashtag + add list for a chance for the developer and other people to find it, or just copy it later to them when you do find them on Fediverse / website.
I often look for software name or person name here and send it to them direct if they have an account on
WHICH OFTEN THEY ARE NOW in some form or later I find them and copy and paste it! :)
Giving up is ok while leaving a possibility / copy etc later...
I could go and help it, and go on and on in an endless fight against poor #design but that's what I did for almost 10 years and I've never seen anything ending up in a genuine satisfying way, except for a few cases: #Blender, #Inkscape and #Thunderbird. I am just tired and prefer to do some tinkering now.

I'm tired of hearing about AI, to be honest. I never cared for it. I don't respect people who use generative AI, and I despise companies that sell out people's data to train it. Yes, people will lose jobs to it, but the world will not be better for it. It's just that consequences are rarely immediately apparent in such complex systems.
"These refusals come at a huge cost to individual researchers. Visa applications require scientists to be studious with paperwork, commit often large sums of money and make several trips to embassies that are sometimes outside their home country. My experience left me feeling demoralized, embarrassed and insulted by the implication that I and people like me couldn’t be trusted to attend a conference without outstaying our welcome."

The title says to me "It's the road you chose, and you recognise you are the one travelling it, with whatever comes, as it's own testimony and evidence to itself in the end.
@Moon Hi... how is it here with the Federating with Threads / BlueskyBridge - Like / dislike,,, blocking / totally not etc?
Feedback for you CSB - swearing not needed here
@CSB@noauthority.social Feedback for you CSB
Look at the chat again... it's the 2nd major time (1st was calling me too poor about another topic which after explaining you said sorry).
So I'm not sure about swearing this time...
1/ why you have to use "fuck" here? I couldn't get in and was trying to find another way and you just say after "i repeat: I don't give a fuck about personal instances of jitsi" when you didn't even mention it clearly before other than 'no instance' which is not the same as "I don't like and never use other instances" ! )
2/ Why not admit you said something which was NOT according to the picture? I did make it clear.
Summary:
So overall from almost nothing there is a bit of a price paid and residue from your short unclear / multi meaning reaction / swearing. I
I'm explaining it's really creating / inflaming / not helpful / making more problems and unclear feeling from nothing. I don't get it because you're fasting, seem wise but throw out mini-tantrum type stuff and wonder why you might get bad attention back.
I did put it to one side but others will not. I'm explaining politely.
No need swear really and keep to your good ways like other thing or really wait until the fight level is needed to add fire to language.
Really you have other good points so this would really match the set.

"Free School" is a term for a movement born from the 1960's / 70's using educational living & learning practice towards #Caring & #DIY with all others (all at the same time - not an after-thought or specialism in 1 field or person who is a #compartmentalised person ignoring others in other fields). Caring to involves more things, increasingly aiming towards everything...
Posts are 1-line #Notes and #Quotes that links all other things (it's all relative).
Long comments use CW to shorten post vertically and add a 'show more' button to reveal more text if you want it. Long posts might seem bad but it's giving chance to more connection and understanding.
All things towards #Freedom (life moving from Shorter to Deeper thought).
Freedom doesn't come from short-depth lifestyles / short lines of text / ignoring / #inaction. Not less communication between lovers of similar things. MORE!)
#FreeSchool = Learning Together 🔁
#FreeSchool = Working Together 🔁 (eventually + I do Free work for Freedom.
#FreeSchool = Co-Operating & #DIY Solutions 🔁

#FreeSchool ➡ Increment Talking + Peacefully solve everything.
TLDR - Inaction = Fascism
Trust comes from "slowly but surely"... Doesn't have to be all-in, but peace doesn't come from one-way short messaging on 'social' Mastodon either - collecting memes and cats only is limited!
Remember we need develop better humans as well as 'develop' code on computers etc.
☮ Peace needs more... even to save all types of cats!
Get in touch - I'm someone that cares for everything because it's all human-related...
Human #chats welcome - I using #Jitsi audio chat which uses JUST browser (ANY PLATFORM + 2minutes to enter !)
(i.e. no-install / no account / no google / instant / privacy-respecting / safe-enough, etc!) Really the best out there - any platform / device! Instant audio chat !
Just ask for a link and prepare a few topics!
#AltText used (when I remember).
FREE WORK - I do free audio and video editing (anything considered - just ask).
Again - Creating Trust needs a bit of trust given "slowly but surely"... not all-in... being relaxed about it... but has to be more - 'working' like a 2nd job towards peace because your job isn't going to do it / it's now allow by State to get there! War increases prices etc ☮
So do "peace" as a side-job like it was your real job in the world, parallel to the Capitalism (Trap) you (we) were born into. We have to accept that and fight out of that and not be comfortable in it.
Heart and Soul all the way.
