I want friends who will go dumpster diving with me,
I want neighbors who will knock on my door and ask for butter because they forgot to buy some and it's sunday.
I want book shelves in public spaces, food banks and shared tool sheds and community gardens.
I want to trade home grown tomatoes for a couple of eggs with my neighbor and
I want to bring food over to my
friends house when l've cooked too much.
I want bicycle only streets and
I want people to go on spontaneous walks with.
I want people to ask me for help when they need it and
I want to be able to ask for help in return.
I want community as a safety net.
I want people to stop focusing on the vague concept of the
one, who will Cure All Isolation and Loneliness.
I want every single person to be able to find support and comfort around them, regardless of their relationship status.
Society sells us romance as a fix for the lack of community. The point is people saying "you'll find someone someday" instead of saying "let's make an effort now". I don't want a romantic partner to fix a problem that goes much deeper
than what they could fix.

Happy Friday, everyone! Let’s end this week with a burst of energy. And what better way to kick off the weekend than with a steaming cup of coffee? ☕
If you are a coffee enthusiast and happen to be from Switzerland, you’re in for a delightful experience (metaphorically speaking). Switzerland is a world leader when it comes to coffee machines and – wherever you are in the world – chances are your favourite brew was probably made by a Swiss appliance.
Curious about the backstory? Read this article on the history of Swiss coffee machine manufacturing to discover how the Alpine country achieved this feat. 👉 http://s.swissin.fo/4nymqyZ

Endo Anaconda: «Wir haben Heimweh statt Weltweh» https://www.watson.ch/!396385995
Swiss Song of the Day 🇨🇭🎙: Vor etwas mehr als zwei Jahren verstarb Endo Anaconda und seine Stimme fehlt dem öffentlichen Diskurs in dem engen Land, genauso wie diejenige von Mani Matter nach einem viel zu frühen Tod es tat. Seine oft dadaistisch anmutenden Texte trafen in der Mundart-Band Stiller Has auf höchst bluesige Musik. Die Band gewann auch zahlreiche Preise u.a. den Salzburger Stier.

Good Idea: Break down your tasks
https://jacobian.org/2024/mar/11/breaking-down-tasks/
1.Begin with a list of tasks or an idea.
2.Think through the steps needed to accomplish each task.
3.Ensure each task is sufficiently defined by answering:
-Do I understand the desired change?
-Do I know what "done" looks like?
-Can I define all the steps to reach "done"?
-Do I have all the necessary information to start the task?
4. If any answers are "no," further break down the task and repeat the process.
5. Practice this skill to improve proficiency over time.

Breaking Down Tasks - Jacob Kaplan-Moss
Something missing from this series on estimation, until now, has been a discussion of how to “break down” a project into a well-defined task list. I’d not previously written about this because, to me, it’s largely intuitive. But it isn’t for everyone, so…
