Today is the 200th anniversary of the April 17, 1825, document issued by France’s King Charles X recognizing the independence of Haiti after a slave revolt in the colony. But it also imposed a 150 million gold francs debt on the new country as compensation for the economic cost of losing their enslaved labor force. French President Emmanuel Macron, saying the document “subjected the people of Haiti to a heavy financial indemnity,” announced the creation of a joint French-Haitian historical commission to ’’examine our shared past.” But he stopped short of addressing demands for reparations. @AssociatedPress has more.

AP NewsIf you're in the USA then you'd better move fast if you want any of my signs, because they're going to cost more in a day or so, courtesy of your resident cheese ball.
If you're not in the USA, congratulations. Why not celebrate with a shiny new sign?

After WWII #Britain became a #colony in the #US
In the past 50 years or so, the US has progressively been colonised by the #Zionist entity called “#Israel” until, in the present day, it’s now clear that the parasite has fully occupied its host’s brain & central nervous system!
As the US-Zionist Imperium draws to its blood-soaked dénouement, when #Netanyahu tells #Trump and #Starmer to “Jump!”, they both ask “How high?”
The millions of Americans who live in the so-called “insular” or “dependent” territories of the United States are in an electoral limbo. The colonial framework has led to unequal distribution of resources, underdevelopment, and discrimination. #colony

Progressive.orgwhy is this #weeny crying? will his kids go to war? (unlikely because he is part of the #rich elite, only the #poor will DIE for even more #profit!) let me tell you this: after #ww2 and the EXCELLENT #Marshallplan of course #EU and #USA were friends, because #USA effectively helped #Europe recover from the #destruction (not without profiting) so #Europe has ALWAYS been a #Theater for #Americans to play in, play #war, play #influence. Whoever thinks this will change overnight is gravely mistaken, #Europe DOES NOT EVEL BUILD A SINGLE SMART PHONE X-D #Europe is COMPLETELY dependant on #US and #China #infotec companies (so much for "#independence"?) a #EU #Army will not solve that problem X-D
the #US #colony called #Europe is about to get thrown into the same #war and #profiteering #abyss as #Ukraine #wtf? just for #rich #asholes to get #richer that's all (read #ww1 #veteran #SmedleyButtler #warisaracket) #msc2025

Mushroom Colony
While out hiking in Yosemite heading up to Mirror Lake I spotted this Mushroom Colony off to the side of the trail.
I had to get down on my Belly so I could get low enough to capture this perspective. There had to be hundreds of mushrooms in this colony, but many of them were in some state of decay and rotting.

Guys like Girls like bees attracted to flowers... they see, they like and really appreciate them on a biological level
Guys like Girls like flowers... (and the other ways of saying it that is more socially correct)
And even like girls who pick flowers they like them so much (and kind of kill them hehe). So post is about the appreciation mostly...
Girls can be be like a flower to guys, they see, they like and really appreciate them, and well feel like sometimes they need to pollinating them somewhat as natures way of spreading of what they were designed to do (males more directly in humans spread seeds in this context)...
This is reflected somewhat in bees more because almost that is their only purpose / use!
So as bit of a compariso, it's the overwhelming attraction for guys to flower girls or shower them as flowers (or any other best way to say this)... so even though we all as humans have some ability of communication, the other senses are far more immediate at wanting to do xyz and at times overwhelming making us say / do things in reaction to attraction / beauty etc.

I'm looking for my Leaders / Are you also looking for Leadership? Someone to help ? Role Models to become ? Admin you look upto ?
On reflection I've been thinking that "I'm looking for a decent leader" and perhaps that all of us do look for leadership.
That's why we might moan when admin are not the potential we thought.
I've been wanting to merge with people and their work most of my life and perhaps that's naturally all of us in our life inescapably as humans (all part of one species) from parents and then... ?
And so increasingly when the bad world is cutting people out of the equation, cutting off from land or increasing it's price, our nature is cut off by those who have 100% bad/extractive intentions to cut down and sell it all (then sell it all back to us). So instead of rebel and all become terrorists (as a reflection of current regime) then we look to other people more and more to help and serve us or better people to serve.
(I could have just said "because government is shit deliberately we are forced to look to our parents and other people for answers" so you take either version of that!)
Because looking for leadership ties in so many good / wanted things...
●occasional person to partner up with
●project making / re-creating the past good ways and things
●remote or local integration of related work with projects (toward Freedom / everyone being more responsible together)
●potentials for "a new future"
●service to each other mutually with this power of "online" to wield.
●etc etc
This all makes Admin a target naturally for providing and representing spaces, also doing some of that already as part of their existence or blurbs and bio... after which they might just be talk or might be "I don't care for that as much" even if it's not directly that phrase - but after 50 emails you do get the message and especially if you're like me try all the angles and realise it's futile and someone willing would actually message you after some stimulous rather than the just as a chore to say "I replied" as the minimum.
Are they investing in people?
NOT SO MUCH MAYBE! They do social but not the 1 to 1 or bringing you into the trusted ring so to speak which is needed for the opposite not to happen (everything gets worse and avalanches on a few people since they didn't want to give up their seats or test something occasionally with others).
And many people too I believe chose and look up to their Admin...
...for their boldness
...what they represent,
...intellect
...ability to express
and so might expect them to lead the way even more or continually.
As a kind of human to those "in power" we might think "that's your purpose there, to serve me more of the good stuff and I will do best I can if only you would allow me to test things also to also represent this place!!"
It's my opinion, though demanding, it is our duty as humans and can't escape it - and though that seems unfair on Admin basically even free space without more is ultimately flawed... and not free either (which you might find out when they moan back).
Even the free or half-promised stuff can be like a friend who says he'll come fix something and every day forgets the day or keeps delaying or worse doesn't even acknowledge he didn't turn up while you're waiting for him.
Not talking only about my admin completely but also the whole dynamic of Admins and Users.
If you're admin is going into AI instead of more fully doing "the people work" as you see it - that's a cut off point of "Oh he's pro AI" and doesn't see the human slave labour behind it for the basic data entry and input or "totally he's interested in Tech and playing with toys more than people"
So although I don't know the guy (so don't take any of my words for it) do assume I've hammered this server with "we have to do this, can you help me with this, can we test this project" x100 posts and DM's and basically what seems would " legitamise " and magnify such as test project to get answers... So that's why we my ask persistently or beg or be told by another user "you can always go elsewhere if you don't like it" only for the same modern bourgeois attitude there... A bit like Capitalist job not willing to see the bad habits and care to adjust and just say "find another job and good luck!".
It can work as a provider, moral pillar, pioneer or whatever, that users expect and ask for more and sadly for the "expectee" sometimes not possible or not wanted...
Ideally like a mutual Leader or Queen bee (laying eggs like projects and supporting us) it might not happen in Human Society for other reasons. It's not just pure rejection or differences, and sometimes it is!.
But money, AI, non-improvement of users, FUCK THAT!
( lol - just wanted to add a bit of spice at the end)/
So some of this is going to be true for you as user or Admin.
Some things are are totally going to me misguided and circular for people, like "Tech-only and not people" or unsaid thingsthat are effectively that.
We are nature and natural to us is more nature / care and we not aiming for Humans with Borg-add-ons fused to us which is where things are headed! I am not against most things but we have enough and almost stopped doing the people work, almost switched to Tech only which surprise-surprise is what Government funds most (fuck the arts, peoples and education bitch!).
Are you looking for your Leader / pioneer ? So Am I....

(well maybe you found "the right person" (me) because the rest are not even aiming properly or clearly wanting to help people improve people NOT TECH!).
Users are the weak point also... so I can give you work and you can start on Monday!
Serious! No leaders I know around here... How about you?
Are #Admins just advanced bloggers?
Are you just helpless soul without another person? [MLK pic below will help you consider answers]

#Colony, #colonizer, and #colonization are maladroitly applied to #Israel by people who are ignorant about the indigeneity of the #Jewish people in the region that is Israel, or by propagandists who refuse to acknowledge that indigeneity.
Also notable: Quick #amnesia about #Hamas #Oct7 and acceptance of revolutionary violence “by any means necessary” again and again and again…
@galad @notwithstanding @martin
The use of the word #colony in the proper sense that it was originally used in the #Jewish context is not #antisemitic https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/112523561362831738
For example, the "Italian colony" or the "German colony" or the "Latino colony" to refer to COMMUNITIES in various parts of the country.
It is the subsequent distortion in meaning by ignorant people and by propagandists that is antisemitic.
It gets worse when colony is inflected to #colonizer or #colonization.

How do you find your social partner in a crowded #seabird #colony? #Vocalisations are prob. of use. Here, I give you a detailed look at identity coding in the #littleauk over 2 years and 5 call types.

The ad just repeated, and I paid closer attention: it didn't hit the same way it did at a casual, not-really-paying-attention glance, and I think I made the right decision passing #Colony by.
