I'm for truth, no matter who tells it. I'm for justice, no matter who it's for or against. I'm a human being first and foremost, and as such I am for whoever and whatever benefits humanity as a whole.

Making it easier for people to get to places where there's nothing people actually want to get to is not helpful. It won't boost your economy or the town's civic life & activities.

Creating transit to places people don't like & don't want is a nonstarter.

You'd think that would be obvious, but...apparently not. Especially when the chamber of commerce is the one who made the unwanted places.

I am writing this on Tusky, which is free software that someone had to write. It is running on an older Android phone, which someone had to assemble from components that other people had to make from raw materials that still other people had to produce.

You are reading this because it was transmitted via a sophisticated international communications system which someone had to design and someone else had to make from raw materials that someone else had to produce.

The electricity also had to be produced by someone, using machinery made by someone else.

Happy May Day, y'all. The world is nothing without our labour. Our masters know this; we should too.

Somebody has his own office chair which, in his considered opinion, is often insufficient but sometimes enjoyable.

This is not distracting at all.
