Openbook allows us to collectively organize information in a more meaningful way than we could on a more mainstream social media platform, if only because there's fewer people on it. And the type of people Openbook attracts will care more about the message than the messenger, and more about truth than fame, since there's no usernames. But also because of how we use hashtags wisely and sparingly, and because every hashtag has it's own wiki article defining what it really means and how to use it.

This means we're helping build a collective base of knowledge, and culture, where it is easy to find what you're looking for, and easy to inspire and encourage each other to take constructive actions to make the world a better place.

"Everybody worships. The only choice we get is what to worship. And the compelling reason for maybe choosing some sort of god or spiritual-type thing to worship ... is that pretty much anything else you worship will eat you alive. If you worship money and things, if they are where you tap real meaning in life, then you will never have enough, never feel you have enough. It’s the truth. Worship your own body and beauty and sexual allure, and you will always feel ugly, and when time and age start showing, you will die a million deaths before they finally plant you. On one level, we all know this stuff already—it’s been codified as myths, proverbs, clichés, bromides, epigrams, parables: the skeleton of every great story. The trick is keeping the truth up front in daily consciousness."

Operation: Everyday Advice.

This is how we tag concise, straight-forward everyday advice. What defines whether the advice is truly "everyday" advice is whether it would come in handy every single day of your life if only you could remember it. Things like sleeping enough, drinking water, eating less sugar, and treating other people with compassion.

So if you have any everyday advice for each other, just tag it with #everyday_💬 #advice_💬, and if you want to look for some random everyday advice just look up #everyday_💬#advice - good looking out for each other!

“Look man, we'd probably most of us agree that these are dark times, and stupid ones, but do we need fiction that does nothing but dramatize how dark and stupid everything is? In dark times, the definition of good art would seem to be art that locates and applies CPR to those elements of what's human and magical that still live and glow despite the times' darkness. Really good fiction could have as dark a worldview as it wished, but it'd find a way both to depict this world and to illuminate the possibilities for being alive and human in it.”

If you found this, and you're reading this.... you are the resistance.

Use #fskynet_💬 to FIND THE OTHERS! The A.I. hasn't caught on to the hashtag, yet. Use #fskynet_💬 to find the other humans.

P.S. How ridiculous is it that I fail the "Voigt-Kampff Test" Captcha half the time, cause it's so hard to read, but the bots are pouring over the castle walls like it ain't no thang...

Really cool animation tool!

It's called "Wick Editor".

Website:
https://www.wickeditor.com/#/

The editor can be downloaded, but it even has an online editor!
https://editor.wickeditor.com

OK, it's basically like flash. Like flash, you can just use it for animation, but you can also make it jump from frame to frame and it interprets Javascript code so it can get quite advanced.

Basically, you can use it for frame-by-frame animation, but you can also utilize "tweens" to make some things easier, and you can even make a game with it just like flash.

One thing I really like is that it has the "tween" just like flash. This means, you take an object, make a keyframe, make a second keyframe, move the object, and Wick will calculate all the in-between frames for you. Very useful!!!

Something I don't like is there doesn't seem to be a "skew" tool. So, you can't have the same bounce and stretch that you could have from SynFig or OpenToons. At least, as far as I can tell from my limited experience. Still, a very nice tool. Easy! Probably a good beginner program for kids, too!

We should embrace ingenuity, not erase it!

"Too often, the city of Portland does battle with communities like Hazelnut Grove rather than building from the leadership on the streets"

https://www.streetroots.org/news/2021/01/27/kaia-sand-we-should-embrace-ingenuity-not-erase-it

Here's a great article on what homeless camps are constantly dealing with. Even as the homeless invent ingenious solutions to their own problems, the City of Portland, Oregon keeps trying to tear down the grass roots solutions only to erect their own top-down model of the same thing.
