Share Your World 1 Minute

Melanie (whose blog is showing up as "parked"; wie gehts, Melanie?) warns us that "This week is a philosophical (chewy) question week."

In your opinion, what should be humanity’s goal? A world free of politics.

Are you hesitant to speak your opinions? Yes. Mostly because I don’t think they’re of any great consequence to anyone else. The world would be a better place if we stopped loving or hating people because of their opinions.

Ooh! Benedict Cumberbatch, ladies!

In what ways has society changed during your lifetime? What do you think caused these changes? It’s become far more vehement, thanks largely to Facebook and Twitter. May they both be assigned to the trashbin of history and Mark Zuckerberg and Jack Dorsey be hanged, drawn and quartered for crimes against humanity.

If you had a friend who spoke to you in the same way that you sometimes speak to yourself, how long would you allow this person to be your friend? Oh, I’d keep him/her/it around forever.

Sometimes I stand in the mirror and do this

GRATITUDE SECTION: I switched my VPN from Norton to NordVPN, and everything works better now.

  2. I wrote here and it didn’t take…grrrr. Basically, love your answer to politics but would add greed to the mix. I try to not give an opinion but that never works and I end up giving it. I think cell phones, social media, the easement of many things, like not having to parallel park, has all contributed to a too fast world. I love your opinion on the geeks that rule this area. I can be too harsh on myself so not sure I could be friends, I have to learn to say better things. I am happy that I am getting better, slowly, but getting better.

    1. To a very real extent, greed and politics are related, because politics creates the environment for greed to flourish. A lot of legislation is of the “robbing Peter to pay Paul” variety, which is great if you’re Paul, not so much if you’re Peter.

  3. Thanks John for Sharing Your World! Sorry my comment is so late, but ‘they’ didn’t notify me of the post. And yes, I got another follow from you so I THINK we’re good. Given the events on my blog over the past few days though, who knows? I agree fully with that Twit(terpated) and FB comment. They ought to go down in the real version of the history books (do they allow those to be seen any more?) as a major contributor to the horrible mess society is in right now. The rest of the blame goes to an orange P.O.S. who shall remain nameless because I don’t want folks to throw up. I LOVED the GIFs, so appropriate, and I loved the “thanks for the input – door slammed in face” one. Priceless!! Have a wonderful week!

    1. I see you got the “domain parked” problem out of the way. I’d go to your blog and I’d get the message that the domain was parked, which might have something to do with why you didn’t get a notification from me. Were you aware of that?

  4. After I read your entries, I think wow that’s so clever why didn’t I think of that? Much better answers than my own. And the graphics are always excellent too. Today I needed a laugh. Benedict and the guy flipping the bird. Lol. I’m still giggling hours later.
