"Legal" is just another type of Business... "Illegal" = Just keeping the Business going using "Ilegal" as excuses for not solving things completely (Governments need to not solve things to keep their own jobs and control going). Governments can't solve things else reduce their powers and excuses! 

Imagine "legal" governments need to let illegal things to exist as a controlled way to keep their own jobs.

"Legal" is seldom about morals only or over-arching goals of good as priority (otherwise we could have paid for it already)... "Legal" - It's just another business

= Just
= Just keeping Business going

Some people are ultimately ok with harm to others... ( 🙈 + 🙉 + 🙊 = choosing not to do anything with what they see, hear, speak about evil)... 

...as long as they don't see it
... as long as it's not direct in their own face, it's not for them to do anything.

Some people are ultimately ok with harm to others... ( 🙈 + 🙉 + 🙊 = choosing not to do anything with what they see, hear, speak about evil)

It's like "I didn't do anything, I pay what these gangsters told me to and they did the work, NOT ME..."

Or they say "who are we talking about" as if it's 1 person or just 1 group of people (the question shows depth in seeing systematic people rolling in and out to do the same damage, none of which we know the names or or can see from such far distances and lack of transparency... and the economic cloak and cover for draining people's blood is also not direct in their face so it's like "yeah I see lots of stuff on the news but I really can't see how that's to do with me, my company, money, my government, at all" even though yeah they complain but ultimately they complain informally to others but never rock the boat officially... cowardice ultimately and covering of eyes / mind... 🙈 + 🙉 + 🙊

Choosing not to see, hear, speak is quite hard for others to live with...

Open Eyes, Ears, Mouth with the right people...

Audio is tiny, self-manageable, fast

...to edit / upload / download / stream etc

Video is increasingly not, and in many more ways...

Life has been made all about control / ownership etc...

(...from controlling and owning citizens right the way down the hierarchy or pyramid ⬅️ OFTEN BOTH)

Question: How to keep multi-cultural things going without looking at the bad all the time?) 

We need something of a way that allows problems to be overlooked but people aren't going to cheat us (and people who are not doing to overlook those that cheat us unless really "for the greater good").

Somehow to feel we are united...
even though everyone is different :blobrofl:

❓ (And bit of a paradox perhaps)
But any ideas on how to keep multi-cultural things going without looking at the bad all the time and what works towards being united in some sense?)

#Chess #Question - Why can't one king kill another king? 

-
Why can't a king kill another king?

Considering that Kings KILL ALL OTHER PIECES... but not the other king?

Reminds me of arbitrary "game of life" where "arbitrary" means "because someone said so" (which is fair enough for games, but sometimes not logical or has it's reasons beyond the average person / player... indeed in games and in life!"

Deep I know...

"...single genius can often spot the problem, and articulate it, in a way the crowd can’t. That ability does not make us qualified to design the solution. At least, not much moreso than anyone else who has to live in it."

Incentives drive behaviour - that's why it's hard to trust anyone...

suicide joke

Hey. Feeling hopeless again and coping with humor as usual. I think we should establish a suicide promotion hotline. Hear me out.

Personally, I knew I should have done it at age ten. I just thought I was too young to make that decision. I needed some support and encouragement like our hotline could provide.

The publisher of a small imprint of roleplaying games magazines/speculative fiction shuts down after 22 years because their submissions have been flooded with AI to the extent they cannot wade through them:

“The problem with AI is the people who use AI. These are people who think their ‘ideas’ are more important than the actual craft of writing, so they churn out all these ‘ideas’ and enter their idea prompts and think the output is a story.”

I made a Long-Tailed Tit! This is my first attempt at representing an actual real bird. There will be more, but next time I am using wax to shape the beak, this one was so tiny it was basically impossible to form with just the needle. And I'll wrap the wire in waxed wool, too, so it looks even more realistic. #NeedleFelting

The problem with AI is the people who use AI. :nes_fire:

I have to wonder how many lawyers defending Trump don't actually support him and are just using him as a vehicle to pen-test, and ultimately strengthen, the US legal system.
