We know enough to be worried. We understand enough to see the pattern. We care enough to be affected.
But we do not have enough power to feel agency.
Our new essay is about that gap: between awareness and agency, information and orientation, witnessing and repair.

Outside the Default Path: A Pagan Reading of the Federal “Anti-Christian Bias” Report
A reflective Pagan perspective on the federal government’s anti-Christian bias report, exploring how religious freedom can feel very different for Americans outside the cultural mainstream. Through personal experience, civic observation, and reflections on pluralism, this essay examines the difference between protecting faith and centering one faith above others. -
A promise can circulate beautifully before anyone asks what design would make it real.
That gap between moral language and material consequence is where public trust begins to thin.
This piece is about coherence as leadership: keeping words, responsibility, and reality in the same frame.

Participation, dignity, care, transparency, inclusion, voice — the language is everywhere. But what happens when the words remain, while the structures meant to carry them grow thinner, vaguer, or harder to answer for?

For a long time, we treated the emotional and the civic as separate.
One personal. One political.
But that line is breaking.
What people feel is no longer just shaping how they engage with democracy.
It is shaping the conditions under which engagement unfolds: how attention holds, how risk is perceived, how much complexity someone can stay with.
Not at the margins, but at the core.https://associationredefine.substack.com/p/behind-the-work-observations-from?r=6l8ed8

A quotation from Thomas Fuller

For of course it is not always the same thing to be a good man and a good citizen.

The notion of “moral formation” may sound like it belongs in some 19th century handbook. Is the absence of such training what ails American public life? Are we emphasizing self auctualization without regard for the welfare of those around us?
#DavidBrooks makes the case for a new focus on #morailty and #morals which is increasingly absent in our educational institutions and our public dialogue

"City and state should join forces to give Sydney the public square it deserves " - Sydney Morning Herald
SMH editorial comes out in favour of a town Square for Sydney’s CBD.
> Central Sydney has many great things going for it – the harbour, Hyde Park, the new-look George Street and fresh energy – but what it still lacks is a proper meeting place; a public square.

paypal loves to lock money in favour of security.
but, the better the bank, the less money they will lock.
have you ever seen a bank lock a verified client from withdraw 1k eur? last and only time i did: paypal 2015. today, they didn't want to let me login even. 🤣🤤

hi!
🤣
will you consider integrating fediverse and/or activity pub on this blog?
how about self hosted agpl3+ or #fupl code?
if "no" to both, you probably don't need to bother about giving me a key. 😁
i suggest you at least consider #offlinefirst and forget web front-end, unless you can use a simple webapp which provides.
#mobileonlylife
in any case, thanks for sharing your beautiful work however you will. appreciate the inspiration! 🥰
cheers. -

coincidentally, i couldn't think of better tags for this post. basically the same category as the previous announcement! 🤣
ever since my U$1k issue with #evilgoogle, when they stole it from to force me using #thefuckingpixel3, i started to think about going to court for the first time in my life, after some 38 years in.
but i didn't. because, as it turns out, i do not live in america, so i have virtually zero rights. and that makes everything around going to court for #thefuckingpixel3 (search the web for cregox pixel3 google should bring you an updated link) nearly impossible.
last november i got denied to enter the usa, to visit my family, for the last time. spent well over U$3k (or nearly 30% of my yearly income) trying for over 7 times. on november, #deniedboarding for the second time! it almost feels like the agents who did it, did it with pleasure. almost.
anyway, i told this story too many times already. i will continue to try and make it good, but today i came here to write about one of my #awesomeideas! whenever i share those with people, they become speechless in awe! 🤣
yesterday i spoke with a local lawyer in person. he had a non smoking sign. at some point, he asked me if he could smoke... afterwards, he removed the small sign from the wall with his nails!! or at least started to try. 😳
more importantly, i talked extensively with him about the whole #deniedboarding story. and he offered me help for €60 (apparently a big discount on the lawyers world), send the airline company a letter so they will pay me back the tickets they keep promising they will but never do. he thinks it's 50/50 chance they will comply and, if they don't, he have no idea how much it will cost us to follow through, but probably not much except a lot of work.
he also thinks going for more money in portugal will never bring good results, as it will cost more than the money we can take.
i disagree, but i don't know shit practice about it. i do know that my logic works better in theory, and that the law should be the best academia science we have around logic. skepticism surely wins, but it does not constitute science or academia on its own. in fact, academia goes very far from logic, in general. especially medicine.
in any case, i need to wait more and see if they do now, on my last direct attempt to a friendly settlement with them. i promised i won't get in touch again outside the court. and i asked for nearly 50% money, 300eur. they promised to pay something.
now the idea...
i offer to pay the lawyer 102 EUR (how much it would cost me to start the process myself). if we win, that's it. process over.
if they don't pay, we go to court and he doesn't charge me for anything except court costs. then, if we win, he just pay me back the 102 and keep everything else. if we lose, we lose.
i want to make this right. but i have no idea if i can follow through because of how much #energeia this will take. i only know that i can't pay the whole bill upfront with my income today. and for the rest of energy needed, well, let's just say i might get away from europe (hopefully to an island like palau or new zealand) in the next 10 years. although i think the chances of that happening rose from 50/50 ever since i discovered #tamera back in 2019. probably less than 30% chances, in fact. and i only keep it bigger than 5% thanks to the #peaceindex + my visit to nz back in 2011 or so.
there. #selfnote made. helps to think better. i might try to get back to sleep now. 😴

@captainepoch @a1ba sorry for not using your preferred channel and reporting on an older version. and thanks for your amazing response, captain!
allow me to get #verbose now...
i did read most of what you repeated here even before you sent it, but i had a mostly #offgadgets day, sunday driving through the mountains with a few local friends and mainly a loving partner. in other words, important distractions from work. so i didn't answer as fast or carefully as i usually do. 😁
now i also usually do too much verbose unedited content, such as this post... please, let me know if you find it too much and i'll edit out!
first question
+ why do you prefer mailing lists or even private email (for bug reports) over the fediverse or, even more intriguing, over sr.ht issue tracker?!
really curious to know.
big messy paragraph follows...
i will send you the reports over email if you really prefer, but if there's one good old tech i could never adapt to i would call it mailing lists. and, today, with my #mobileonly life, it became even harder to. the stupid width limitation on sr.ht, for instance, illustrates very well this problem: feels like no other dev in the world, beyond myself, use no physical keyboard! here i just give you my reasons why i will probably choose private email for bug reports only due to technical constraints in our communication... because i vow for building a completely #transparentlife which i happened to call also a #publiclife. i hate the privacy bubble with the bottom of my heart.
second question (and last one for now, to keep this shorter)
~i think~ i will ask it in a new post...
