  1. #happypridemonth to all of you! :rainbow_heart:

    Times might be hard, but we are not alone :rainbow_heart:

    And, as #queers & #feminists are still blamed to be the ones who turn #fascists to #fascism , a small reminder from my talk @ #39C3 in #Hamburg

    Fascism is not a reaction to feminism, Queers of whatever: Fascism is the collectivity of people who rule over others by force.

  2. A quotation from Bertrand Russell

    The happy life is to an extraordinary extent the same as the good life. Professional moralists have made too much of self-denial, and in so doing have put the emphasis in the wrong place. Conscious self-denial leaves a man self-absorbed and vividly aware of what he has sacrificed; in consequence it fails often of its immediate object and almost always of its ultimate purpose. What is needed is not self-denial, but that kind of direction of interest outward which will lead spontaneously and naturally to the same acts that a person absorbed in the pursuit of his own virtue could only perform by means of conscious self-denial.

    Bertrand Russell (1872-1970) English mathematician and philosopher
    Conquest of Happiness, Part 2, ch. 17 “The Happy Man” (1930)
