Wait for help? Yeah. I do that too. It feels like an encirclement, and all you can do is hunker down and wait to be relieved. Or fight to the last, it's up to you. I hear they brutalize the skulls of their prisoners after executing them, so, I don't know about you but I'm not surrendering. Not gonna roll those dice. you are in fantasy, again sorry. Should stay here, present, in the moment. Like when I sat out on the park bench for like 30 minutes straight without moving a muscle last night.

On the other hand, art is necessarily divorced from it's meaning the moment it leaves the pen and is written to paper. So there cannot be a meaning in my flag, not one that I define of course. The observers of the artwork, of whom I am but one of, can possess their own ideas of what it means, of course. Here's mine, feel free to take your own: Sea, land, sky. The crimson of a fading light, and the bright beginnings of a new day. Man(kind), with our vivid red internals, stands astride the border of the ocean and the surface. We walk where we will, perhaps into the black depths of the cosmos beyond, but forever do we anchor ourselves and owe allegiance to our earth and our star.

They need to be given the tools to escape those conditions However, many of them are poor. They lack the resources to escape, even if they had the tools. These are who I think of the most, for they have the least to leave behind. A solution: what if we got a bunch of people together and drove around to every red place we could find and invited them along? We could pay for their food and gas, and potentially save their lives. I think it would help if we could stick together. Not only would we have time to spend together learning and having fun, but also we could practice supplying a large group of people traveling across large distances. In terms of people, we'd need some to drive, and some to stay home and supply resources like dollars or... other things. I'm thinking 2-3 staying at home but potentially as many as 10 per driver. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ chronological │ different │ ╘═════════╧══════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────┴───────────┘ ════════════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────── -> file: fediverse/4406 ┌──────────────────────────────────────┐ │ CW: re: uspol-revolutions-and-drones │ └──────────────────────────────────────┘ Build drones, build stations where they can be controlled, repaired, refueled, etc. Put guns on them.
