🤯 "There are no boundaries in the real Planet Earth. No United States, no Soviet Union, no China, no Taiwan...Rivers flow unimpeded across the swaths of continents. The persistent tides - the pulse of the sea - do not discriminate; they push against all the varied shores on Earth." ~ Jacques Yves Cousteau

Breaking free from societal indoctrination starts when you ask, “Who would I be without their rules?”

If you have to use Meta platforms for any reason, here is a sanity-saving, time-saving, fuck-🖕🏻-zuck, tip:
INVERT.
- Begin your session by hyper-rapid scrolling for a fixed count of your choice. As fast as your device can load content. Do not stop to watch.
- Browse backwards until you reach the top.
This prevents the algorithm from being able to predict your actions and stagger content that is genuinely interesting to you in order to keep you scrolling indefinitely like a donkey on a motherfucking treadmill 🥕
You will know in advance how many ads are placed in the stream, and how often to expect them.
The information that the algorithm can gather from you is severely impacted, and it most certainly cannot act on it during this session.
It also limits your investment of time, energy, and focus, to just the preloaded content, short-circuiting doom scroll, and protecting your wellbeing.
Eventually, if enough people do this, Meta will adapt, but for now, this technique can be used to subvert the inhumane use of human psychology deployed by Meta. Tell anyone it can help.

+ Spread Your Wings, Little Dragon +
(or, we don't need hoards)Being so poor that not only my life, but that of my chosen family too, are in danger.... Well it's eye opening.
I have a habit of looking deep inside me and so I come to understand some things on a gut level, not merely an intellectual level (we need both, combined).
So anyway... That saying about being careful if you own things or they own you. That's important.
And it's not about how much money or stuff one owns, but how one relates to it.
Sure, if you relate to things in an organic way, you won't be that metaphorical old-school dragon who hoards millions, you'd share. But one can be poor and be owned by money, or capitalist zeitgeist ideas, or free from them. And one can have high income or inherit riches and be either bound or free.
I need stuff to survive and due to capitalism, money is the only way for me to access it (housing and food being threatened for me and fam very urgently https://gogetfunding.com/help-two-disabled-queer-abuse-survivors-finally-achieve-housing-security/), so money stands between me and my freedom to survive currently.
But I don't let the capitalist worldview chain my brain. I know that feeling too, that cold sweat panic of "I need to CLING to my hoard or else I won't be SAFE" like if an old-school dragon was driven by anxiety rather than outright greed.
We don't need hoards. We don't need to gatekeep others from resources to be safe ourselves. No, we only become free if we outright refuse to reduce our own bodies and minds, as well as other's, down to "resources" that are defined by a single number: its numerical value, the price tag on our souls and on the soul of the land and all it brings forth.
(This number will go down to zero or negative as soon as the machine has ground you up and spit you out - we're being disabled at a staggering rate!)
If we stay connected to our own raw, undomesticated aliveness, and grant others theirs, then instead of hoarding dead things, we build up our resilience. We break our chains, spread our wings and lick our wounds. Because we've all been hurt and we all deserve grace, time to mourn and rage and heal.
We don't become safe by buying into the idea that we'd lose our value - and with it our human rights - if we lost our status in capitalism, be it as worker or as capital owner.
One of the most radical things you can do is to directly and defiantly relate as Alive. I don't know how else to describe it, even though I am explicitly talking about things and clouds and rocks as well as critters and growing things and people.
But if you try it, you'll feel the difference between seeing something as a ware to be bought and sold and speculated with, versus keeping in mind whatever you know of its life, its circumstances, its past, present and potential relations to other things and places, to people or cultures or land. Or its lack of relations. Its displacement and dispossession from the land and people and cultures that gave it form.

Religion shapes minds: a tool for control by politicians and priests. Embrace abstract concepts like nature's spirit. Let's question the 'one true God' narrative we created, protect nature, value lives, and resist manipulation. Reflect. #FreeYourMind #religion #atheism

This is costly. There must be a political and business interest? What could this be used for and by whom? Some glimpse of what could be in a dystopian world trending to no rules anymore to limit billionaires and facism(scifi novel?). Ensure that no opposition to leader/king and billionaires can exist by predictive behavioral analytics? Sort everyone depending of tags of what they say in their house to their family and friends (political opinions, international relationships, opposition to leaders policy,...)? Listen to what people say at all time of their life using their smartphone or amazon echo or any other connected device with a (hidden) microphone inside it, register their voice for later comparison to establish their identity via other alexas recordings in other locations, identify who are the person corresponding to a recorded visit based on voice fingerprinting, record their private conversations,and create digital twins of these real persons by AI training to understand how they are probabilistically (deep neural net is the digital twin) likely to react to different good or bad stimulis or decisions by their autocratic leader with regards to specific population in the country or outside the country? Economic espionnage/intelligence against competing compagnies, start-up and foreign countries? There are lots of democratic alternative futures to this kind über facist panopticon surveillance based dystopia.
Drop your connected devices!
Their owner (not you, but gafams/batxs) are spying on you to support their own local dictator they finance and to own&crop you like a expandable resource to be continuously mined and for which they can still optimize exploitation. Long live european gdpr. Sell or better destroy the connected devices you bought to them, free yourself from their influence and control, diminish their money and predictive analytics based power on your life. Then, look for a simpler more private life. Free your mind by purging them of your own life. This is NOT about any form of communism, this is about you being in control of your own life, ie. individual liberties of contracting with other people and compagnies, private life and a really "free market" not influenced/controlled by corporate monopolies and billionaires spying on everyone abusively using intermediation of personal communications by AI deployed everywhere for their own political agenda or business purposes. This is about liberty!
They do NOT own us, even if they pretend it. You can decide to free yourself.

Full disclosure. I spend an hour-and-a-half on my phone a week—max.
And even that is too damn much. IMHO, Laptop's are a tool (ie, delivery vector) and represent a more accurate framing of a healthier relationship to the tech/Internet.

@anze3db why do you care about PID files in 2024 at all, tho? forking on startup is such a terrible 1990s anti-pattern that emerged due to bad tooling it gives me an headache just thinking about it. it’s been obsolete since at least supervisord, but belongs on the compost of history since systemd by the latest. #freeYourMind

Samuel Rutherford commissioned the Westminster Assembly. There are some uses for painted men, but no reason to whitewash your faith. Faith is resting on Christ. Love is cleaving to God to please him and neighbor.
Do some instead take pride in offending the neighbor, or limit the word to be members of a clan limited by ethnicity or ideology?
How can you cleave to God and please him and our neighbor?

If your idea or praxis of a trans community is not inclusive and welcoming to people who refuse to, or are incapable of, defining their gender or who refuse to disclose their asab or who are intersex or who have non-western relationships with gender - then that's just shifting the bounds of oppression around a bit. It's not getting rid of it.
Think bigger. Break down walls of oppression completely! It is possible. Just try and keep trying, it gets easier with practice. Make more space, create freedom in your hearts, in your spaces, in thoughts and discourse and action, spread it in the world wherever you can.

Ich mein klar müssen wir als Gesellschaft Energie sparen und das Klima retten. Aber 2 kaputte verrückte punks in ihrer minikleinen 1-Zimmer-Wohnung zu belästigen um sie zu kontrollieren ist halt das gegenteil von sinnvoll. Vielleicht einfach mal Grundrechte und Grundbedürfnisse umsonst machen????
Schaltet doch lieber den nazis und klimatötern den saft ab und gebt denen keine wärme mehr her...

I find that when I write fiction, I tend to go for the jugular.
"The knight killed the dragon and the peasants rejoiced. The End."
Okay, but what motivated the knight?
Why kill a dragon?
Did the dragon have a life? What kind of life?
How about the peasant? Did they want the knight to kill the dragon?
Etc...
All of these questions eventually do come, but, good grief, it is like pulling teeth right out of my mind.
(Try pulling teeth right out of your mind. It is harder than pulling teeth right out of your mouth.)
I don't know why it is this way. Is it my chemo brain??? I definitely did not *allow* myself to be this creative prior to my cancer. So... 🤷
Or it could be my #ActuallyAutistic mind finally unleashed. Still, it is my cancer that pushed me out of the autism closet, just as it did push me out of multiple other closets.
My cancer has been in remission for almost 3 years now, with no signs of coming back.
I'd never go to someone who has cancer and ask them to find the silver linings. I think finding the silver linings has to be done by the person who has the cancer, and not by others.
Let me point out here that sometimes, there are no silver linings. I've helped people who were in this situation. ☹️
In my case, my cancer almost killed me, but there's been a silver lining. In some very queer way (pun intended), my cancer has freed my mind.
Not that I recommend getting cancer to free your mind. :madjoy:
