general thoughts
-
All human beings are born free and equal in dignity and rights.
- Article 1 of UN General Assembly resolution 217 A (a.k.a. Universal Declaration of Human Rights)
It is sad that this has to be explicitly stated today still, as the document above has existed since 1948-12-10. - Joy is just a lack of information.
- Daylight Saving Time should be abolished. Which time is chosen to remain is bikeshedding, we could always do one more change if we decide to do it.
- The opposite of love is not hate, but disregard. This is why people get muted or blocked instead of just hated on.
