What to do if bullying? Try consistent boundaries

1. do not writhe or waver. (Movement attracts the bully)
2. do not attempt to appease. (Any offer is interpreted as weakness and obtains thrust)
3. flee to a safe position that you could hold with support
4. then stand still. Set limits on how others treat you. Affirm boundaries (The bully will redirect attacks eventually)
5. connect: turn to a trusted person, reach out only to someone you feel well about
6. offer backing, foster, become accomplice, enjoy

It just hit me.

The same feeling of nostalgia i get when thinking back to the times when we connected to the closest BBS with our Amiga/PC/Whatever….

The same ”it was all sooooo different” will occour in 15 years looking back at todays ”World Wide Web”

"My Preference"

If what it means is to aspire
I’ve tasted nothing of desire,
And now I see the end approaching.
The burning bush is fast encroaching
But no one seems to notice. Still…
I didn’t think it’d be until
Much later that we paid this price.
And I would’ve much preferred ice.

"My Greatest Fear"

While drowning in a sea of smoke
The crown of the undying Oak
Is shriveled to a shade of brown.
The Beast devours a neighboring town
While dancing with prevailing Winds.
The West provides, the East rescinds,
Determining which way I’m leaning.
I’m searching desperately for meaning.
