Never trust a person who talks about equitable capitalism. You know it’s a lie, they know it’s a lie. (@communist_au) wordsmith.social/protestation/…




L'homme de bien ne demande rien qu'à lui-même ; l'homme de peu demande tout aux autres.


Extrait mal traduit du chapitre 15 de "Les Entretiens" attribués à Confucius par Lao-Tseu (partie 20):
«Ce que l'homme supérieur cherche, c'est en lui-même. Ce que l'homme moyen cherche, c'est dans les autres.»

|L'homme de bien ne demande rien qu'à lui-même ; l'homme de peu demande tout aux autres.|



Je suis malade du Bien et je veux que cette maladie soit contagieuse.


Citation extraite de "Le Diable et le Bon Dieu" de Jean-Paul Sartre (1951).
Imposture! Voici une littérature fausse et creuse qui joue avec les oxymores pour attirer l'attention comme un vulgaire média.

Extrait de "Le Diable et le Bon Dieu" de Jean-Paul Sartre (1951):

Je le serai, oui, avec l'aide de Dieu. Je sais que le Bien est plus pénible que le Mal. Le Mal ce n'était que moi, le Bien c'est tout. Mais je n'ai pas peur. Il faut réchauffer la terre et je la réchaufferai. Dieu m'a donné mandat d'éblouir et j'éblouirai, je saignerai de la lumière. Je suis un charbon ardent, le souffle de Dieu m'attise, je brûle vif. Boulanger, je suis malade du Bien et je veux que cette maladie soit contagieuse. Je serai témoin, martyr et tentation.

|Je suis malade du Bien et je veux que cette maladie soit contagieuse.|



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...

Offrir l'amitié à qui veut l'amour, c'est donner du pain à qui meurt de soif.


Il ne s'agit pas d'un proverbe, mais d'une citation déformée de Frank Frankfort Moore, journaliste, romancier, dramaturge et poète irlandais, dans "The Jessamy Bride" (1896).

Extrait de "The Jessamy Bride" de Frank Frankfort Moore (1896):

Il s'habilla et sortit, mais dans aucun de ses lieux habituels, où il aurait été certain de rencontrer certains des hommes distingués qui se réjouissaient d'être considérés comme ses amis. Dans son état d'esprit, il savait que l'amitié ne pouvait lui apporter aucun réconfort.
Il savait qu'offrir de l'amitié à un homme qui a de l'amour dans le cœur, c'est comme donner un pain à quelqu'un qui meurt de soif.

|Offrir l'amitié à qui veut l'amour, c'est donner du pain à qui meurt de soif.|





A First Post


As I move into my 40s, and contend with the dynamic tension of both more time, money, and capability; against higher demands on those very resources. I've been looking for a new place to do my social networking. I don't need the massive social networks of the past, since most of my community is well established at this point. It's nice to have federation, so my more distant friends can still see my posts without having to maintain or check a specific network just on my behalf. It's a little disappointing to find the landscape of self-hosted or federated social networks so barren, but Friendica seems like a solid option. The federated landscape makes it easier to try a platform, knowing that my work will not be forever vendor-locked into that platform.



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...

Sorry for the downtime


Housing situation has been a pain, still on the temporary server environment and been hitting major resources bottlenecks.

I'm hoping to get a place sooner, but I've hit some roadblocks that very likely will push it drastically further out... in which case I'll need to spend more money on this environment to return things to stable.

Reminder that I'm covering this entirely out of my own pocket and these constraints are because I'm between homes and can't use my own much cheaper hardware. If you appreciate this instance I would very much appreciate a donation.

আজকে এটিই আমার প্রথম পোস্ট। দেখি কেমন হয়?


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.
More info for who is interested are available here: ko-fi.com/post/Two-more-bookbi… (don't worry all my posts on #ko-fi are free)
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:

Hey there, I'm Kees (they/them/their, ne/nem/nir), a 30-something bug living in California. I'm hoping to make this my public facing account to share my art and generally interact with the rest of the fediverse.

I'm an amateur naturalist (I like BIRDS and BUGS, especially parasitic wasps) and I do art in various media (digital, watercolor, acrylic), usually of birds or original characters from an ARPG I help run. #tokipona li pona. Aaand I don't know what else to put in here so I'll stop ha.



Hello world. Just doing some testing with how this interfaces with Mastodon, and the various privacy options
This is meant to be a public post with an abstract/CW




Hello there. Glasgow calling.
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.

Pulling me down a pathway of cedar and pine, nesting in its canopy, birds orientated skywards to a plateau of limitless sky. Just out of reac- war̓n̼͚͜i̴͈ng,͈͑̌ l͓̀o̩͋ͬw̦͊ b̵̍a̶͋͂t̫tê̾̍r͉̔͠y

Listened to a command on the internet informing me how to remove dependencies using pacman on arch. Ended up removing ca-certificates and fucking my system. Had to reinstall those packages from cache.
