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.
|Il n'y a pas de plus grand bonheur que de nouer de nouvelles amitiés.|
Le bonheur vient de l'attention (prêté) aux petites choses, et le malheur de la négligence des petites choses.
Citation de Liu Xiang extraite du "Dictionnaire classique de la langue chinoise" (法文註釋中國古文大辭典) de Séraphin Couvreur, prêtre jésuite français missionnaire en Chine de 1870 à 1919, (1904).
|Le bonheur vient de l'attention (prêté) aux petites choses, et le malheur de la négligence des petites choses.|

Trans Texans Can No Longer Change the Gender Marker on Their Drivers Licenses
Until this week, trans residents could change their gender marker with a court order or amended birth certificate.James Factora (Them.)

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

in reply to Vanessa • •@Vanessa That would be me for future reference (in the menu under information it has a lot of the server details and in there is a link to my profile as well as my email address)
If you look further down on that error message where it says HTTP 502 Bad Gateway it tells me the server might have been having issues at that point in time. In all honestly it's kinda unavoidable at the time due to resource constraints, sites currently on a rented dedicated server until I fix my housing situation (current ETA is late october when I can work on putting it back on my own, more stable, hardware again), so it probably was just having issues loading that page at that time.
There's not a lot I can do with troubleshooting clients, but let me know if it keeps having trouble and maybe I can work with you to find some answers?
