Our government... teaches the whole people by its example. If the government becomes the lawbreaker, it breeds contempt for law; it invites every man to become a law unto himself; it invites anarchy.

As long as injustice exists, resistance is the duty of every humanistically socialized person, because it is the only way to ensure that history changes for the better.

The problem with the question is things. any engineer could answer the question with improvements in user-usability.
And any serial killer with:
As die-hard serial killers, we choose to stay at home, and the world is a better place.
Our minds are filled with ten voices, one urging us to kill, and the other nine playing Tetris music. As long as that's the case, everything is fine.

One can contribute to the betterment of the world from an individual perspective by remaining at home.
It is our contention that this represents a comprehensive solution to all conflicts occurring outside the domestic sphere.
Oh dear, it looks like things didn't quite end up the way Washington had in mind.

We would like to apologise for the possibly somewhat unfortunate comparison between Adolf Hitler and Donald Trump. There are few similarities between the two. While Hitler as a person was characterised by a pathological megalomania and a lack of empathy, Trump also has these characteristics according to current scientific knowledge, but he cannot paint.
We do not adhere to the doctrine of reincarnation; however, we are currently reconsidering this stance. It is possible that an individual may exhibit a diminished capacity for rational thought, yet retain the capacity to inflict significant harm.

Get out and vote, because if you don't, there won't be another election, Trump says so.

Friday is my second favorite F word. Food is my first
Anonymous
I believe our first F word would not be food, as food is also incorrectly rated. It is my understanding that lions do not eat squirrels between meals. Have you ever seen a fat, sorry body-positive lion in the wild?
mod
Oh, and another thing! It doesn't matter which weight class you're into – just remember that there's a big risk at both ends of the spectrum. And the food industry doesn't help with its additives in cheap food. This is about lions, not discrimination. Everyone has to live the life they think is best for them!
Thank whatever you believe in for Friday!

The most common way people give up their power is by thinking they don't have any.
Alice Walker
Abuse of power
On a global, social and individual level - and in different contexts in each case - abuse of power refers to behaviour that is based on the illegitimate use of power. The term refers to an accusation that is often used in combination with other terms such as corruption, arbitrariness, greed or thirst for recognition, some of which refer to the possible underlying motives. Various academic disciplines, preferably political and social sciences, but also many others such as economics or sexology, and depending on the context, possibly also criminology or police science, deal with the possibly very different consequences of abuse of power. As a rule, however, there is no definition of the term in either a scientific or other context.
Wikipedia more or less

We have no intention of influencing or even insulting anyone here.
That has probably already been done by the actual facts of the people involved. They insult human rights and don't even apologise, even though they pretend to believe.
I'm so lucky to have these six amazing people in my life! They bring so much joy and laughter to my days. Sometimes, we even laugh at the absurdity of politics and the seriousness of society. It's so refreshing to have a sense of humour that makes my life easier!

Monty Python (1969)
And then, in my youth, I encountered Monty Python and the realisation hit me like a rockfall on an unsuspecting mountaineer... my brain hurts.
And for that I am deeply grateful to this day... if you take yourself too seriously, you will never be taken seriously... we are all individuals, I am not!

Check out..... and your life will be ....!
Yep- it's pretty simple.

Rules in Philosophy/football
“Philosophy football” is one of my most favorite episodes in the Monty Python Series.
Philosophy and football, “soccer” in American English, have something in common. That makes this meaningful to us and make laugh.
Even if you are not familiar with both games, you will find that there are shared rules that looked strange at the first glance. Using hands is more efficient to make a ball into the goal, but football players do not. Taking the time to just think rather than “Just do it” seems less interesting for many sports fans, but they have kept thinking. The fact that rules are shared among players in both different kinds of activities is one of the commonalities.
This comedy makes it very clear. Monty python may be inspired by Wittgenstein’s “A language game”. Wittgenstein is a player on the German team in this comedy, and the philosopher, who was born in Austria-Hungry and made his career in England, got the idea of “Language game” from a football in his real life.
The concept is argued in “Philosophical Investigations”. It has received attention from socio-cultural anthropologists.
Wittgenstein argued that a word or even a sentence has meaning only as a result of the "rule" of the "game" being played. We can talk about the contents of our minds only once we have learned a language and that we can learn a language only by taking part in the practices of a community. The starting point for philosophical reflection, therefore, is not our own consciousness but our participation in communal activities. The participation in communal activities is the source and legitimacy of “rule”.
In this sense, chaos is neither antagonism itself nor scholars’ playing sports in their way. Because these games are played as communal activities. The absence of the game and what creates it are chaos.
Hiya! Hope you're having a lovely day!!
Idk if you do art requests but uhh could you possibly draw the character "The Colonel" (played by Monty Python member Graham Chapman) from "Monty Python's Flying Circus" please? Uhh thanks!!
Here you go! Tbh I'm not all that good at capturing actual ppls features but I hope it's good enough 😭
To quote Monty Python, “And now for something completely different…..”. Not sure why this angle, on this bag, was so intriguing…..maybe it’s this icky cold that’s messing with my head, or, perhaps, medications for said cold….suffice it to say, at some point I found this fascinatingly cool enough to take a picture of & now I share it with you…..humor the aged (well I feel about a hundred & five) and infirm;-) lol….Joyeux Vendredi, mes amis!

RIP the great, inimitable Terry Jones. My favorite Python. Very sad.
