"“被人捂住鼻子嫌弃的一堆烂肉、臭肉有何高贵？有几人想过，这堆臭肉是为了自己的尊严和底线，宁可饿死？这‘高贵的死’只怕不过是自我陶醉而已。我不是好人，但这个世界有许多许多比我更坏的恶人，为什么他们可以‘朱门酒肉臭’，而我却要成为‘路边冻死骨’？为什么道德的要求对他们无效？为什么他们不追求‘高贵的死’？”"

"那跌打医生冷笑：“若是老天爷有眼，你我还会是个穷人？还会住在破茅屋中？”见那学徒依然嘴硬，干脆问道：“辞职的伙计被关了251天，可有天日昭昭？每天朝九晚九，工作六天，可有得到‘福报’？加班猝死，可知年轻人不拿命去拼，拿什么去拼？你的眼中世界平和，天下太平，阳光灿烂，那只是你没有遇到那些事，你若是今日去告胡问静，被打死在牢狱之中，你就会知道什么是天日昭昭，什么是穷不与富斗，富不与官斗。”"

"胡问静脸都青了，白痴都知道是怎么回事，昨天看那媒婆白跑一趟肯定拿不到杀猪李的做媒工钱，一时心软给了媒婆十文钱，结果那些三姑六婆以为只要给她介绍一个男人就能有十文钱拿。
“来人，给她们十个巴掌。”胡问静对手下们下令，然后听着门外传来一群老妇人见到胡家开门的惊喜欢呼，又转为挨打的惨叫。这件事必须深刻反思，孤女在古代是站不住脚跟的，一个杀人恶霸孤女依然站不住脚跟，立地成佛或者洗白等等手段在古代完全不适用，想要站得稳、睡得香，就必须天天为非作歹、欺男霸女。"

"胡问静认认真真的道：“其实，我一直很佩服苻坚。”韦家族长飞快的转念，苻坚是谁？“那个苻坚啊，本事一般般，但是胆子大到了天上，他每次打败了对手，就把对手吸收到了自己的队伍当中，既不夺取对手的兵权，也不整合对手的队伍，只要对手说一句‘我投降了’，他就深信不疑。”韦家族长的心沉了下去。虽然他不知道苻坚是谁，不知道苻坚的结局，但是他已经很清楚的知道胡问静要说什么。胡问静继续道：“我一直觉得，这个苻坚会不会是一个菜鸟玩家？这个世界就是一个单机战略游戏？那个叫苻坚的玩家想要收服天下名将，哪怕名将的忠心度只有30也无所谓，只要自己手中有一大堆名将，看着就有成就感了。”韦家族长站了起来，缓缓的拍掉膝盖上的尘土，道：“真是可惜啊，你若是一个男的，说不定老夫就还有一条活路。”胡问静笑了：“是啊，你的运气真不好，若是遇到某点的屌丝争霸男，一定会娶了你家的所有女孩子，然后坚信‘你家有了他这个女婿，就绝对不会背叛’，若是你遇到了那些一心寻求‘真爱’的穿越女，她们说不定也会为了善良、纯洁和爱情，与你家的帅儿子双宿双飞，幸幸福福的生一大堆儿子、女儿。”韦家族长神奇的理解了大致含义，仰天大笑。“可是，我不是。我对自己的魅力毫无信心，我一点都不信我的仇人会与我‘化干戈为玉帛’，我只相信我的仇人像一条毒蛇，躲在暗处寻找机会咬死我。”"

“Make your interactions with people transformational, not just transactional.” ~ Patti Smith
"胡问静平静的看着四周震怒的胡家人、惊呆的衙役士卒、惶恐的张家父子，慢慢的道：“就因为是血脉至亲，所以就是亲人了？”“难道我因为有遗传疾病，刚出生就被亲爹娘故意与隔壁的人悄悄的交换了；难道我被爹妈为了能够生个儿子而送了人；难道我被爹妈卖给人做童养媳；难道我活着被爹妈吸血，死了还要被吸血；难道我爹娘拿了我全部的钱财给弟弟买房子，却没有给我留一张床的位置……我依然要如饮甘怡，无视养大我的养父母，哭着喊着亲爹万岁、亲娘万岁，只要给我在厕所搭张床就好？”“胡某做不出来。胡某不是这种贱人。”胡问静灿烂的笑着：“血脉都是狗屎，什么血脉上的爷爷、奶奶、爸爸、妈妈、兄弟、姐妹，统统是狗屎！”“谁对我好，我就对谁好。谁把我当亲人照顾，我就把谁当亲人照顾。谁想着卖了我，我就卖了谁。谁想着吸我的血，我就吸谁的血。”"

“Civilization is a method of living and an attitude of equal respect for all people.” ~ Jane Addams
"张华笑了。很多人推崇“不卑不亢”四字，可是在与人争斗的时候，“不卑不亢”其实就是一种软弱，被人欺压了不敢报复，唯有假装理中客、假装不卑不亢，掩饰内心的软弱，好像找回了面子、里子，其实就是哀求欺压他的人能够看在他的节制上收手。"

"The framers of our Constitution understood the dangers of unbridled government surveillance. They knew that democracy could flourish only in spaces free from government snooping and interference, and they put restraints on government overreaching in the Fourth Amendment of the Bill of Rights. . . . These protections require, at a minimum, a neutral arbiter - a magistrate - standing between the government's endless desire for information and the citizens' desires for privacy." ~ Elizabeth Holtzman
"If we are to achieve a richer culture, rich in contrasting values, we must recognize the whole gamut of human potentialities, and so weave a less arbitrary social fabric, one in which each diverse human gift will find a fitting place." ~ Margaret Mead
I'm so tired. People, I am not interested in reading *blogs* generated with claude, gemini or chatgpt. No, not even ones proofread by AI. Do it yourself. I do not wish to even accidentally click on "one-shotted" dummy projects. Don't show me your AI-generated analysis of anything. Above all, I do not wish to see images/artwork someone prompt created.
I value real content, with all its good and bad quirks, from actual human beings.
Somebody please normalize auto-tagging of AI generated content across all formats - text, images and code so I can blanket ban them from my personal computer.
This is a plead for help I never thought I'll have to make.

Music is a Weapon
https://amf.didiermary.fr/music-is-a-weapon/
Music is a weapon of the future.
Music is the weapon of the progressives.
Music is the weapon of the givers of life.
As far as Africa is concerned music cannot be for enjoyment.
Music has to be for revolution.
Music is the weapon.
—Fela Kuti
My music fights against the system that teaches to live and die.

“Community responsibility, when it is managed well, results in peace. And peace benefits everyone. Taking care of someone or something to which you are not immediately genetically related pays you back in other dimensions, and the payback is part of your wellbeing. Compassion is useful and beneficial for all.” ~ Katy Payne
When the people are being beaten with a stick, they are not much happier if it is called "the People's Stick."
