#Mastodon #Writing #Space

I use this Fediverse space to perfect things by writing to actual people 💬 . This works in many ways funnel other things.

First it's all the more real and practical.

Second it's copied to others also either directly or openly available so can spread / be appreciated...

Third it saves a lot of work as done first time almost "without thinking" or "not so serious" so we can choose the best bits and add that to more focused work without thinking much more or it gives us the focus we needed when we we write most of our stuff in the replies anyway and DM others what we really care about.

Ok that's enough from me...

Call it a test. And after a few days take the bell off if no fruit or juice from my words :) 🥝 🍑 🍐 or only lemons and no lemonade 🍋 🍋 🍋

#Civilisation is based on #War

Not just a good #computer #game !!

People are still playing it IRL !

Underneath is the usual #war

(not just a good #computer #game)

"Civil" is only a modern evolution that distances what is "UnCivil"

👾 Fly, Bee 🐝, Mosquito 🐞
ALL Pollinators !! 🌱 🍄 🌴 🌹

Flies are usually seen as "BAD" or villains, as are Mosquitos for those of us that have them...

👾 But a fly is second most important as pollinator - only 2nd to the bee and their Hymenopteran relatives.

👾Flies may have been among the evolutionarily earliest pollinators responsible for early plant pollination... so probably came 1st before the Bees! 🐝

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fly
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito

🐞 All mosquitoes drink nectar from flowers; females of some species have in addition adapted to drink blood.

Best part quoted above and almost all post below:

"...US has no head of state, technically speaking. There is a head of the executive branch of government, which is co-equal (in theory) with the legislative and judicial branches. Each branch has "checks and balances" they can use to limit the other branches' power to ensure no one branch becomes too powerful.

Of course, the reality is that they're all friends who are ultimately on the same team at this point, so that's moot, but in theory the US has no king, just a guy in charge of the federal executive branch, which is in theory not "above" the state governments except for a few things like national defense and interstate commerce."

I think this part is genius and true:
" Each branch has "checks and balances" they can use to limit the other branches' power to ensure no one branch becomes too powerful..."

@vic @levisan vic I think I could challenge well enough based on the sentence almost all being subjective to your opinion or mine... but if we could agree what a strong society is (for example if you mean by army measurement or socio-cultural experience level, then immediately we could get on the right track... ish !)

For a small example - If you European cultures that have never stepped out of their country, never traveled aside from next door countries who speak similar, then you could say their cultural experiences are LOW and therefore world knowledge to some degree LOW and they are STUPID (Low experience) to some level also... so some people think American, Britain, France etc are still the best places to go to even though no nothing about it, barely even from their own TV which has only recently got the same cable channels and Hollywood stuff perhaps...

Anyway Monolingual I'd say is mono-experiences... and although mixed cultures are confused THAT'S NATURAL and a long time coming since the more primal mono-dominant war-like captures of population who might have false sense of pride (again not knowing he dirty under all countries which didn't stop at WW1 or WW2 and still goes on in softer-economic warefare)....

In long run I'd go for mixed-confused cultural people to get to the "intelligence" stage rather than walled garden and false thinking of being safe...

For example USA has 800 bases all over the world (!) so even if you try mono, you get flanked or surrounded by USA or whatever capitalism... and people in other countries can't escape and need to do something better than existing ways if they base their economy on dollar or debt-dollar.... I mean I think I've one this one if going for active defense eventually... but shelling up like turtles, that's half of Europe waiting to be changed or bought or US companies to buy and supply employment or new line of tractors you can't even repair yourself... any one of these tech and infiltrating things BYPASS what you think of as 'invaders' as you're right physically surely that's clear, but free apps and Hollywood films filtering down to you're children, eroding what culture you had is not resilient unless parents are actively aware of US patterns and general colonial type things continuing into there home space- and should be a daily thing else done for as they are way behind now (we can all judge based on our parents just working 9-5 or 9-9 instead of all the above).

There's my take on it - now I'm happy to see yours - even without big reaction - about how you're going to last all the above consider WE ALREADY SEE IT HAPPENING AND HAPPENED (in caps to suggest this is more evidence we can all vouch for being de-cultured, mono-sterilised, Americanised or whatever else than "working together for our own futures" <---- lol a bit

#Mastodon #Pics 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!
