    @metalbiker
    Thanks, this has got me thinking about what I want from a social network, as the indieweb continues to expand, fork, and split. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_software_and_protocols_for_distributed_social_networking looks like a useful list, but I need to get back to defining what *I* want from it all, I think.

    Either way, I'll try and check my GNU Social account more... ;)

    Knowing how to build something is difficult, and takes years of trial and error. But it's good, long term experience that any sustainable future will need to understand. Creativity is hard. Maintenance and defence is hard. All the passion and laws in the land won't change how hard it is to actively build a future.

    Wisdom comes from deeply challenging your own views, everything that you think, everything that you thought you knew. It’s not that you’re necessarily wrong, it’s that you have to break the spell of belief, the spell of believing in your own thoughts, ideas, commitments. You must radically challenge everything you think and value, to understand it’s true nature, to go beyond what is known as J. Krishnamurti says.

    1. "Mindblowing" haul of fossils over 500 million years old unearthed in China -- Sott.net
      from Sott.net
      A "mindblowing" haul of fossils that captures the riot of evolution that kickstarted the diversity of life on Earth more than half a billion years ago has been discovered by researchers in China. Paleontologists found thousands of fossils in...

    My cousin wrote a great poem for her black history month celebration that I've wanted to share with you all. I'm gonna transcribe it here.

    These are the things you will never know

    Keeping your hands out of your pockets while you're in the store
    So no one thinks you stole

    These are the things you will never know

    Lowering your voice when you are arguing or debating
    Just so people won't think your temper is escalating

    These are the things you will never know

    Smiling at the old ladies in the store or on the road
    So that they don't clutch their purses tighter the closer you go

    These are the things you will never know

    Your hair looks better straight
    Is that yours?
    Need I say more?

    These are the things you will never know

    When you have to work twice as hard
    To prove something that others don't

    These are the things you will never know

    You can never be unarmed
    Because blackness is seen as a weapon

    These are the things you will never know

    To be black comes with struggles you cannot understand
    No matter how much you may sympathize

    These are the things you will never know

    To be part of a group that has been through so much
    That fights day by day to disprove the rumors
    Whispered and yelled across generations

    These are the things you will never know

    To be afraid of what could happen to you one day
    Because of your skin tone

    These are the things you will never know

    To be a black person or black WOMAN that
    Strives
    Thrives
    And grows

    These are the things you will never know
