A quotation from Cicero [wist.info]
I continue to urge peace. Even an unjust peace is better than the most just of wars against one’s countrymen.
[Equidem ad pacem hortari non desino; quae vel iniusta utilior est quam iustissimum bellum cum civibus.]
Marcus Tullius Cicero (106-43 BC) Roman orator, statesman, philosopher
Epistulae ad Atticum [Letters to Atticus], Book 7, Letter 14, sec. 3 (7.14.3) (49 BC) [tr. Shackleton Bailey (1968), # 138]

An great article in #TheConversation on Ontario’s basic income pilot:
"We found that increased income security improved participants’ mental health, reduced their stress and allowed them to improve diets with healthier food options. Some spoke of no longer having to rely on food charity as they could go the grocery store like everyone else."
Tha'ts what #UBI recipients want to do: live a dignified life like #everyone else.

The ConversationA basic income can be a strong investment in mental healthImproving mental health through a basic income is a wise investment, one that will prevent the needless suffering of generations to come.
Self-respect starts small 
Every time you speak up, choose #fairness or lift someone up, you're proving to YOURSELF what you stand for.
That builds #confidence , #Resilience , and the ability to keep doing it when it really counts.
You don’t need a #revolution - just a daily practice of being the person the world needs. 
People say, “Just work hard and you’ll succeed.” But what if you’re sick? Disabled? A caregiver? A stay home mum? What if wages are too low, rent is too high, and everything is stacked against you?
Hard work isn’t the problem - economic cruelty is. UBI doesn’t make people lazy. It makes life fairer.
No one should be punished for existing.

@tagesschau Zur traurigen Nachricht vom Tode Gerhart #Baum 's
empfehle ich auch folgendes pointierte Posting : https://mastodon.social/deck/@bernie_j_w_2024/114008362310535241 #Demokratie #Gerechtigkeit #Fairness #GerhartBaum #Liberal #Wirtschaft #FDP #PoliticalLiberalism #sozialliberal #Meinungsfreiheit #Menschenrechte
Mastodonbernie_j_w (@bernie_j_w_2024@mastodon.social)mit Gerhart #Baum verliert die #FDP einen ihrer letzten, die den #Liberalismus -Begriff
nicht mit wirtschafts-liberalen Scheuklappen verengen,
sondern #Meinungsfreiheit und #Menschenrechte als Kern von
anspruchsvollem Liberalismus begreifen, und dabei erkennen,
dass #Wirtschaft-s-Liberalismus diesen Werten letztlich oft sogar zuwider läuft

Götterdämmerung @Gotterdammerung@glitch.socialWhite Privilege: the polished veneer of "fairness" & "equality" draped over an unshakable commitment to whiteness as the default setting. Might critique Supremacy in whispers, but only to protect its own image. Holy Grail is diversity, as long the rules, the rulers & the stage remains comfortably white.

i'm SO effin' tired of customs charges that are unjustified. Just had to refuse a package because would have had to pay nearly 15 USD in customs fees for something that has virtually no value (other than sentimental). The bulk of the fee is a flat fee for customs getting involved in the first place, which is ... questionable. And the rest is unjustified. Still, I'm sad now, because. #actuallyautistic #fairness #customs

“This is not the Trump Organization deciding not to do business w/someone,” Tillipman said. “There are rules in place that are designed to ensure the #integrity & #fairness of the federal marketplace.”
@nixCraft I'll recommend a Fairphone. It is built to last, modular construction for repair/upgrade - screwdriver in the box, apart from all the other social and physical benefits. And you can but one with privacy focused /e/os on it.

“#Scandals involving several justices have caused the public to question the court’s #fairness & #independence, which are essential to faithfully carrying out its mission of #equal #justice under the #law. For example, undisclosed #gifts to justices from individuals with interests in cases before the court, as well as #ConflictsOfInterest connected with #Jan6 #insurrectionists, raise legitimate questions about the court’s #impartiality.
I've been working as an election judge and am impressed by the care and effort being taken to ensure a fair election. There are definitely some sane people left, I've met them and I have hope this election will proceed without incident. The commitment everyone shows is inspiring. #colorado #larimer #elections #fairness
Justice #Merchan reminds the #jurors they need to “set aside” personal opinions or bias against #Trump.
He reads standard #legal language on #fairness, one phrase: “As a juror, you are asked to make a very important decision about another member of the community.”
An unintentional reminder that this is #CitizenTrump — just “another member of the community.”
