It is the true teacher who leaves the class knowing they have learned the most.

Of course that's the flaw in the plan as you point out. It's the old you can lead a horse to water but can't make it drink phenomenon. It's intriguing but I find it disruptive personally. It will be interesting to see how it pans out or does not! Hope you're having a great day😊
That's an interesting point regarding trying to help the user or you specifically in this case. I personally agree. The caveat being that many people use social networks that aren't that tech savvy. Of course there are many people using social networks who aren't Savvy at all 😂

I'm only on my first half of cup of coffee so I can't remember the famous quote about tormented Souls that aligns with what you're saying. I fundraise to a managed medical to track incoming outgoing expenses. GoFundMe.com/f/thanksMols I welcome and I'm deeply grateful for support.

My PS Tom is whether you still have your adventurous plans underway to come Stateside eventually maybe one day. I want to encourage you to keep on that dream because I think it's marvelous and very challenging. If it happens it will leave you forever changed and in a good way XO
I do owe the world service that is part of my belief system. I myself I'm working toward better self management of emotional volatility. I'm not very good with that but almost always there's a precedent trigger. If attacked personally I attack back with a Viper's tongue. PS next
Hi! I tend toward open but dwelling on past pain does not serve me or others around me. Seems better to examine weaknesses and strengths as they are today. Thank you always for your kindness, a trait very apparent in you when we first met. Kind people are my greatest teachers. 😊

Twitter is working on a new feature to "help promote informed discussion." Intellectually I like the nudge toward us reading any articles we share and thinking deeply about them. #UX wise I strongly dislike adding yet another interstitial layer of interaction. What do you think?
Sharing an article can spark conversation, so you may want to read it before you Tweet it.
To help promote informed discussion, we're testing a new prompt on Android –– when you Retweet an article that you haven't opened on Twitter, we may ask if you'd like to open it first.

I will never stand down. I will continue to rage against Graceless Machines of Hate until the last breath I ever take. Let's talk topics. Personal attacks are always out of line.

Class is exactly part of the problem as well. I completely agree and I also think that the fact that we use these classification systems that are illogical and stupid all Factor into it. It's a tragedy in every way shape and form. I can't stop hearing George Floyd's last words
Tender Hearts break very easily though. I am deeply wounded and I am deeply angry because I seriously cannot understand anyone who thinks that way at all.
Once again, I do not and never will understand what it means to be "white". I am outside of society and always have had to battle my limitations and own idiocracy to get anywhere. I am fortunate to have made use of the years I could do what I could. Thank you for the kindness xo

I do media diet. This was my time for posting. It's a very good technique. I was calling out idiocracy, not an individual. Shame on them for biased assumptions that make an ass out of only her.

Exactly that. People are awful and.I have zero hope of seeing anythinig happy again in this world. I was challenging ideas. I do not appreciate personal attacks. Makes me wonder who IS privileged. Cuz if anyone's jealous of anything me, they're idiots. Good on you for lifting up!
I know what it means I'm angry beyond Despair and I really feel suicidal for the first time in many months because I feel as if I belong nowhere and sadly that is the truth. I want to die. I want to rest with my husband now please

There I spilled a lot of blood just now. Can I go be alone for a while without being told I'm white and privileged.
I did not know who I was for a few years. I know who I am now. And the privilege I do have is the kind, loving people who do not judge wrongly by perceived bias. x

Hi there! Caught me in the middle of a race-based meltdown. Me. White privilege? Who the fuck knew? I sure didn't ;-) Hope you are well.
