Haytime in the Cotswolds by James Bateman, 1939
â¤16đ7
There is a difference between what we deserve and what we get. I do not condone acts of vengeance, but do peoples behavior sometimes deserve it? Of course. Deserving and receiving are mutually unexclusive. If we all received what we deserved throughout our lives, we'd probably be long gone. This, falsely constructed sense of entitlement which is carried by most people is why we have such little respect for each other, society, and the consequences of our actions.

This is the con of uncontrolled capitalism. People think you have capitalism, or communism. Wrong, this is where they've conned you. Socialism is not communism, and capital should be sought after for national interest. You use the right policies for the right place as opposed to one or the other as a sweeping policy. Healthcare, the military and so on should come from public tax while personal and national capital should be promoted and pursued, but capped to avoid people making money at the expense of the nation, it's culture, and it's people. The system has overcomplicated and plagiarized socialism to make is seem like communism and it has instead made the pursuit of capital an excuse to make a world of immorality where humans are mere commodities. Socialism and capital each have their place, you just need to understand this in order to see how.

Taken #OnThisDay 107 years ago at the Somme, April 3rd, 1918 (#WW1). The fallen soldiers name was private Glyn Dent, who died at 29. Glyn and millions like him won absolutely nothing but lost, absolutely everything.

London is #England's, and therefore, (whether you'll admit it or not) #Britians capital. If the democratic process was real, the entire nation and the population of #Scotland, #Wales, and #NorthernIreland should have a say on who has the right to be the #MayorOfLondon.

I am young, yet old enough to be among the last of our generations that didn't need a phone to know who'd be at the pub. When pubs let us in at 17 because we genuinely had nothing else to do. Conversation, togetherness, and the prospect of action were our be-all and end all.

#Edinburgh is living proof that we not only have no need for the ugliness of modernity, but that we're far happier without it. The Royal Mile, Edinburgh, Scotland đ´ó §ó ˘ó łó Łó ´ó ż (1847 & Today)
Isn't it strange that many of the places that were once some of the poorest in Europe are now some of the most beautiful simply because they've been left alone.

I'll tell you what's pointless. The chap I see in one of my gyms who cycles to the premises, only to use a cycle machine before buggering off on his bike. Like running, if the only reason you attend a gym is to cycle when the world is so beautiful, you're wasting your life. Unless, of course, you're a woman, and it's early or late, what with today's crime issues. If you don't need the equipment, don't waste any more of your life in windowless box rooms than you have to. đ¤
