Politics, constitution, electoral college, proportional representation, senate

@katemorley and to bang the same nail i always do: imagine the uk had a civilized electoral system, this spelled a nice progressive left coalition government. But with a bit of bad luck reform wins this. #proportional

“... Several things stand out:
1) the massive flow of the mighty Mississippi and Columbia River systems
2) the paucity of major rivers in the western US, especially the southwestern US, where the only major rivers are the seriously over-tapped Colorado and Rio Grande Rivers
3) the local importance of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Rivers in California, which serve the state’s cities and agricultural regions…”

Abstract Subjectivism!

2025 年 2 月 25 日、午後 4:25

In the philosophy of art, subjectivism is the belief that art should capture and reflect the subjective experience of both the artist and the viewer, turning the work of art into a mirror. "Abstract Subjectivism" is a photographic art form that begins with traditional photography, using an image as its foundation. Through intensive editing, the photo is transformed into abstract, geometrically asymmetric forms that reflect the artist's emotional and psychological state. Intended as a healing mechanism, the artist expresses perceived flaws and inner conflicts through seemingly chaotic subjects called "errors," turning these imperfections into meaningful experiences. This process mirrors artistic subjectivism, creating catharsis by transferring the value of imperfection into the qualities that produce a work of art.


曼農可

I am not a monster. I support the freedom to live and enjoy the possibilities of existence.

I belong to a diverse community of free individuals who tolerate each other through mutual influence inspiring one another on a humane level through mutual identification without ever losing our own independence.

No nationalism, no violence, no war.
