The reality of quitting commercial social media apps.
Over the past year, I stopped using FB/Insta/Twitter/Whatsapp. As a result, my ENTIRE social circle instantly ceased to exist. Friends, family, everyone.
Not a single person was willing to keep in touch without using the mega-apps. Attempts to explain why I left only seemed to infuriate people and paint me as a social pariah.
This has very real, very serious life consequences.

Using Mastodon
and the Fediverse is an act of rebellion in itself.
By being here,
you are contributing to grow an alternative system that is led by the people and for the people, not for profits.
By being here,
you are encouraging a solution to a deteriorating social climate that thrives on outrage and the monetization of hate.
By being here,
you are participating to the development of a new system that can slowly build a better world.
Thank you for being here 💚
Here's another #painting that's coming along pretty well. This one is entitled "Light always wins over darkness", done in the #Ukrainian #folkart style of Maria #Prymachenko.
The title is a quote from President #Zelenskyy.
I hope you like it so far....
#FollowMe - I follow back! I make vibrant paintings about #nature and #hope.

I like the somewhat more creative approach in which campus gardeners deal with plants.
We visited a mall. We are reminded that December is here by ornaments and decorations.
This morning, we spent time on the incomplete toll road.
Cars (except contractor cars) are not permitted to enter the toll road as it is not yet completed.
Locals are free to cycle and walk.
I tried to stick to simple themes only since I'm still learning how to use AI-art. It turns out that AI-art can produce a wide range of variations on a single theme.
Neither drinks nor chemicals are present in these bottles. These fuels are offered to motorists who are too lazy to queue up at gas stations.
