Well, I liked the king, and as king I respected him — respected the office; at least respected it as much as I was capable of respecting any unearned supremacy; but as MEN I looked down upon him and his nobles — privately. And he and they liked me, and respected my office; but as an animal, without birth or sham title, they looked down upon me — and were not particularly private about it, either. I didn’t charge for my opinion about them, and they didn’t charge for their opinion about me: the account was square, the books balanced, everybody was satisfied.

Dear Friends of seven swans, 🦞
Yesterday the seven #signets on #Tooting Common were still #swimming with their parents. #Daddy swan was with the #toughest/largest and the other six were with their #Ma. Will they all make it? Well #nature is tough. Swans are #delicious, like crispy duck no doubt to quite a few felons/predators. As a #commoner and #pleb they are not on my shopping list. :ablobcatpopcorn:
A flock of swans flying sounds like a UFO or whatever they are called now. UAP? Crop Circus #Fakery? #Special #effects of the bird/third kind?
In the UK, only Q (Queen #Camel and guests) are allowed to eat the Royal #Mail, White Swans etc and provide a franchised product #endorsement. Fortnum & #Mason is their #delivery #nub.
Black swans are rarer and may be exempt from Regal #gnashers.
Some farmers in the UK are #rearing #ostriches but that is a #specialty.
Have a great day. Look around. #Sky, #Earth, #Nature. #Changes. ❤️ -
Im Mittelpunkt stehen dabei Commons-Praktiken. Sie zeigen, wie wir in #Verschiedenheit #gemeinsame Ziele verfolgen. Ganz praktisch können so Häuser und Fahrzeuge in ähnlicher Weise wie die #Wikipedia entstehen. Das #Buch stiftet zudem an, wie ein »#Commoner« zu denken. Es bietet eine #Sprache für die Welt von #morgen.

Dieses Wochenende ist das Frühjahrstreffen des #Commons-Institut.
Ihr wisst nicht was die eigentlich machen. Das ist nicht schlimm - kann man nicht in Worte fassen. Seit aber vergewissert, die Leute dort sind die besten. ❤️
Gibs hier auf #Mastodon noch andere #Commoner?
