Hello world out there
Here in Germany the day has begun
Somewhere it is night
Somewhere in this world many ask themselves the same questions as I do
Have we solved all our problems?
Do all people have a dignified life?
Have we fought as we should have fought?
Will we one day be able to say, I look at this world and it makes me happy?
Let's make this world a better place together and answer these questions
Together 🌎🌍🌏

A thought, from a discussion this morning: one of the problems our society faces is that kindness is local (reinforced by small communities and reliant on individuals helping each other - multiple small events) and therefore not easily scalable, while competitiveness is extremely scalable. But kindness and humanity are the most important things in life. We all need to keep putting small local effort in to make sure the important stuff is at the forefront. #ideas #humanity

#solarpunk is a hopeful near future where #humanity lives in #harmony with the natural #environment through the use of #renewable #energies and #technology to achieve a post #scarcity #world, a #vision of a #realistic #utopia or as close as we can get.
Do you think this is an achievable #future for humanity? What changes would be needed to achieve this future?

Damn! IDK what to say - the atmosphere, Heavy thall?! I am living for all of the new heavy music that is pushing the boundaries this year!! *Insert stank face here* Not terribly familiar with Humanity's Last Breath so I can't speak to how this falls in with their discography. Came across a reaction from MetalBirb and was hooked. Anyone more knowledgeable about them let me know what you think.
In the light of a resurgence of media reports about alien craft, intelligence agencies and debriefs, is it a good time to examine the assumptions we could be making in our motivations to find (and attract) advanced alien civilizations?
Have we given up on ourselves?

#Storytelling is so fundamental to the experience of #humanity that we might take it for granted. #Stories are how we share our inner lives with others, how we persuade, how we #educate, how we remember, and so much more. I love that stories are so crucial to us. We even strive to tell them better, whether it’s through craft #books for #writers or books for business people on how to frame their business as a #story.

@Ulrich_the_Elder Yup! There's no such thing as permissible #FreeSpeech for slaveholders, murderous racists, mass murderers, war criminals, perpetrators of wars of aggression, genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity & other crimes against human mankind.

@obtener Yes! Homophobes are assholes!
Because "-phobia" doesn't only mean exaggerated fear of someone or something, but also
***intolerance or aversion for*** someone or something.
https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/phobia
So it's OK to call assholes, who are too small-minded to live & get along with humans of the LGBTQ+ community "homophobes", "transphobes" etc.

If you're following me on Mastodon, then you should know:
1 - I'm "pro-life" so I firmly believe in banning private ownership of semi-automatic single-projectile firearms.
2 - I believe all people have full determinant rights over their own health & reproductive systems, and NOBODY has a right to interfere with your competently reasoned decisions.
3 - I am against all forms of religious zealotry including denial of reproductive rights based on religious beliefs.
4 - The two predominant religions in the world are both cults, and both have histories of having promoted massive human rights violations up to and including genocide. SO.... your religious affiliation is not a virtue signal: it does not entitle nor charge you with authority over others.
5 -A person's race does not ENTITLE that person to jack shit. People of ALL races are entitled to the exact same set of human rights.
6 - America needs to ban political donations by corporate interests. Across the board.
What have you done for someone less fortunate than yourself lately?

1/2 General Purpose AI is a huge double #threat to #humanity, but people are only concentrating on the 2nd part of the threat, the #Singularity, which is something we won't be able to do anything about anyway because it's mostly in the hands of #BadActors who won't listen to #regulation at all.
We will likely be in a world where #NorthKorea will be the #AI equivalent of being a primary nuclear power, for example.

"Prudery correctness"? "Subversion correctness"?
Oh c'mon, Pentagon!
"There have been independent examples of drag in England and China in the 1500s. Since women were not allowed to participate in drama or theater, men impersonated women when acting on stage.
In the Victorian period English actresses impersonated men in theater, and in America actresses like Annie Hindle also impersonated men in her performances. She had a low voice and shaved regularly her facial hair to cause it to form a stubble.
The impersonation of the opposite sex was popular in theater and film ***until 1933 when the Hollywood Motion Picture Production Code was passed***.
This law or code was aimed at eliminating what it saw as perversion and disallowed men impersonating women in film, temporarily ending the era of male impersonation in film and theater."
[1933 was also the year Hitler & his Nazis grabbed power in Germany; in 1939 Nazis held a rally in Madison Square Garden...]

#AI can go to one of two extremes:
1) AI helps us move to a #postscarcity society, solves #globalwarming and we can stop working while enjoying safe, #happy lives.
2) AI decides we're a threat and uses a combination of AI run weaponry and turning off energy, water & other utilities to wipe out #humanity. Leading to our #extinction.
Sadly the second option is probably the more likely.
But hey! On the #bright_side: at least we'll be able to create pretty images using prompts for a while... 😂
New study identifies safe and just boundaries for the Earth system. Safe boundaries ensure stable and resilient conditions on Earth, and just boundaries minimise human exposure to significant damage. Humanity has already crossed several of these boundaries

Introduction post? I'm not much for them. I don't like ones that intersperse hashtags. Here's mine.
I'm an anarchosocialist in the USA. I've felt this way since my teens, I'm in my 40s now. If anything, I'm getting MORE left/progressive as I get older. I'm about helping people. Redistributing wealth. Taking it from hoarding fucks that make everyone else suffer. We all know it, but we need to DO things about it. Spreading information helps.
That's why I'm here. To try and not bitch too much about day to day drama or the fascist demagogues in power, but to also hopefully give useful, practical ideas to free yourself more.
And also to recognize the cool stuff on Earth--nature, everything else. Buckle up.

Rest in Peace , Anna Mae Bullock aka Tina Turner. She was one of the best selling artists of all time and one of the architects of soul, rock, pop, and so much more. She has been called the Queen of Rock ‘n’ Roll and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Tina’s powerful and provocative voice was only matched by her energetic and awe-inspiring dancing. She was a magnificent force in the world of music and other areas of the arts. She rose from poverty and abuse and lived proudly through her artistry. What an inspiration!

Here’s a thought experiment: If you had a small group of skilled mobile, desktop, server, and web front-end engineers who have access to time and money, and are eager to MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE USING THEIR SKILLS (and not just spin up yet another exploitive startup) what would YOU have them do?
Be specific.
Assume cost is no object.

“#Scientists should embrace their #humanity rather than pretending that they are a bunch of automatons who instantly reach perfectly objective conclusions. That will be more work both in terms of ensuring that #science represents that humanity and in explaining how it all works to the public. But in return, society will get better and more just science, and it will allow scientists to immerse themselves in the glorious, messy process of always striving for a greater understanding of the truth.”
@AutisticAdam another way of thinking...or a lot of other ways of thinking considering the immensely large spectrum of people who are #actuallyautistic.
I think actuallyautistic people are more likely to perceive differences in thinking than others who didn't get #diagnosed and/or who got #selfdiagnosed.
Before they manage to fail more and make humanity even more of a public humiliation spectacle, we should find ways to prove the opposite is true: that differences in the brain are a benefit to #humanity.

It looks like we should expect more extreme weather in the coming year or so, but if we have reached a point where the oceans are going to be less effective at absorbing heat and greenhouse gases, then things up on dry land are probably going to start progressing much more quickly.
That means that simply ending fossil fuel use, while absolutely essential, is not enough. We must do better to prepare for a hotter planet.

As I've got older, I've become ever more annoyed about reading puff pieces in the papers from journalists who've interviewed the Californian author of a new book that purports to tell us about the universal human condition, based on the author's life & experiences on the West Coast of America...
Whatever we might think about us all slowly (or speedily) becoming American, the life of middle-class Californain writers is not anything like a reasonable basis for seeking insights about #humanity!
