I recently learned that New Zealand have expanded the range of indicators for how they measure their country's success. It's not just about the economy any more.

It's about current wellbeing, future wellbeing and their impact on other countries. That covers a huge range of stuff, including biodiversity, life expectancy, literacy, greenhouse gas emissions...everything from fish stocks to child poverty.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this. Feminists have long said that GDP is a patriarchal measure because it ignores the value of women's unpaid work. It's also useless in so many other ways. Well done to New Zealand for coming up with a better way of measuring how your country is doing.

They're not the only country doing this, but they're one of very few trailblazers.

"Don't go near the castle, it is cursed," the people in the village said.
"In what way?"
"It traps you."
"How?"
"Most of us were passing through, like you; now we can't leave."
"Why?"
They conferred, then an elder spoke. "It has an amazing, huge library."
"I must see it!"
"Noo!"

Power Snaps 

Toxicology says she was wacked out on some new drug called Power Snaps. Found her naked at a T.J. Maxx whisperin' "The dungeon masters are following me."

Considering moving to a different instance. Any suggestions?

Still prefer for one that doesn't tolerate or federate with assholes and fascists.

You pick a phrase, you pick a rhyme, repeat the sound a second time.

Five iambs and then an extra beat will do ya.

Another rhyme, a rising note. Congratulations you just wrote

The Matrix is such a subtle movie in its messaging that it contains a scene where a black man breaks the chains he has been bound in, after being cuffed and tortured by a white man in a suit.
