Un homme n'est jamais si grand que lorsqu'il est à genoux pour aider un enfant.
Citation apparue à la fin du XXe siècle et associée aux Chevaliers de Pythagore (Knights of Pythagoras), une fondation maçonnique de la jeunesse de Pennsylvanie. Impossible de savoir si elle est authentique ou pas.

Extrait du "Jardin d'éloquence" (Shuo Yuan) de Liu Xiang
Propos attribués à Confucius dans le "Jardin d'éloquence" (Shuo Yuan) de Liu Xiang:
Quand un homme de qualité cultive son comportement mais ne parvient pas à obtenir une position, il est heureux de sa propre compréhension des choses ; ayant obtenu une position, il est heureux de sa propre sagesse. Ainsi, il est heureux toute sa vie et n’éprouve pas le moindre désespoir. Une personne mesquine n’est pas comme cela. Lorsqu’elle n’a pas encore obtenu une position, elle est affligée de ne pas l’obtenir ; et, après avoir obtenu une position, elle est affligée à l’idée de la perdre. Ainsi, elle est accablée de soucis toute sa vie et n’éprouve pas le moindre bonheur.
Il n'y a pas de plus grand bonheur que de nouer de nouvelles amitiés.
«Il n'y a pas de plus grand bonheur que de nouer de nouvelles amitiés.» Qu Yuan, Neuf chants (Jiu Ge), V Le petit maître du destin (Shao si ming), entre 241-223 avant J.-C.

I don't think it's talked about enough tbh.
When my egg cracked, there was a sense of dread... because once I knew there was no going back. My life would never be safe again.
Do I regret it? Not one bit, I'm genuinely happier now, but I do miss safety...

Trans Woman Would Actually Rather Be Safe Than Brave
In an uninspiring story out of Chicago, 28-year-old Shelly Deichman would actually rather be safe than lauded as brave for simply existing as a trans woman.Reductress
Slightly sketchy account makes me uncomfortable and others report it... I politely give them a warning to migrate before shutting them down...
Day and a half later "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"... whelp, that's an immediate delete...

Long time no writing here
I started to digging into my latest hobby of #bookbinding (but it's not the only one i assure you)
And made several pamphlet, with also some custom design.
I recently made couple of handmade hardcover journals. One using a custom hero-quest character sheet, the other one is just a lined notebook.

It also gave my a nice surprise of receiveing the first donation ever (even if it will be the last it still made me happy! :) ) Any opinion comment is appreciated.
These are couple of pictures of my latest works:

any comment/critics is appreciated.
I'm an analogue digital hybrid who cares about mental health issues, music, photography and art.
I'm deeply suspicious of ducks (in a less than serious way) and although I exist on Mastodon I'm keen to migrate to Friendica.
Best wishes all.
Mist and fog clouds over this domain. The thoughts of raceme flowers and pinnated ferns hang over my minds eye as I walk with covered pupils. The hard dirt feels rock like, with an occasional trip over roots.

New here, i'm a nerd and in freetime programmer! Italian, living in Ireland
