private messages on a dating site
When my new flatmate was introduced to me, he was described as a “little bit queer” which seems a wired measurement. What is a full queer, or a small one? How can these things be measured? Everything needs a value! (… and i hope i catch myself when i do the same.)
So, it is hard to say “how far am i”? Did i passed this step, or another?
Do i know more, then those few people in the square today? Having the neighborhood assembly in a small corner. They know how to listen to each other, to actually support each other in the real world. Yesterday, Sunday evening, they all came together, another weekly update. And last week, they prevented that this pregnant woman would lose her flat, standing in the entry of the house, getting beaten and arrested by the cops.
i have heard all these kinds of stories in the last 10 years, and most of the time from the distance. Sometimes from the ground, sometimes first hand, sometimes i wrote down my own.
We knew 10 years ago, that the G8 is going this way, it was clear that “the crisis” (for us) is coming and that they move all the money to the top. Everywhere.
And you can observe and follow every little step of it.
So yes, my perspective might be different, my concerns, intentions and motivations. My ideals of free access to information seem rather idealistic in the light of the real world troubles. And still i know, it can go hand in hand.
And i write you all this because your profile was full of simple loving words of understanding. You write you are grown up, but your English is as honest and direct as a little kid.
That will have to do, for some wishes of “love and anarchy” of today.
