Though it's often tempting to lose faith in humanity altogether, remember that the people who build or save things are not the same as those who harm or destroy them.

Unlike houses, which served individuals and families, historic #pubs with old fireplaces are the very rooms that multitudes of our ancestors kept warm within the very same climate we're still used to today.

Hopefully, now people will understand why I'd not join any of these new parties and ignore the countless invites. I'd only ever form one. As arrogant as it may seem, I'm confident that I know more about those leading them and the subjects in question than most can imagine. I just dont voice myself in that field anymore. Moreso, I bleed for the people I see suffering as opposed to seeing them as cannon fodder to my own fame or income. Every time I pass a homeless or suffering person, it takes a small chip of me away, especially knowing I can not help them. Those who are real live in a consistent state of depressive mourning and misery because they take today's issues as seriously as life itself. On top of this, the people who follow or aid you are the family you've never known, not fan boys or girls. What we do represents or misrepresents those who've put their faith in us. Some people did it all at our own expense and actually lived that life. From academics to so-called media representatives, myself and others like me have undermined them and would continue to eat them for breakfast. I always said a real leader will want highly skilled and intelligent people around them to deal with all kinds of situations. They can not be insecure that people may come across as smart or smarter than them, as with so many organisations whose leaders create a fake pedestal. Too many people gained followers or some kind of status from being in the right place or being connected to someone. It doesn't mean they have the talking points, skills, or tactics to appeal to the public or to take on those harming it. Morality, integrity, and actual experience matter. Maybe one day, but for now, I have a few things to do. For now, I'll say no more. But maybe this will explain why I have and shall continue to refuse any such offers. Remember that loving your own isn't the same as hating others and that we are the vessels of our ancestors.

There's a reason that the most comforting, awe-inspiring, and culturally appealing images of #London are the ones void of modernity.

This is one of my favourite buildings in Great Britain. Not only is this a historic and visibly mesmerising structure within itself, but it's also a pub called the Tolbooth Tavern on #Canongate in #Edinburgh, #Scotland. When people ask me some of my favourite buildings to exist, I often refer to this absolute treasure.
