Lol I remember this kind of thing happening

I’m really sorry to hear that. Wishing the best for your neice

I’m thinking about offering some workshops. My local authority has funds available for courses and workshops which benefit the community, aimed particularly at people on low incomes. It would be fairly basic stuff, like where to access free software, the advantages of it, some recommendations and perhaps even some introductory lessons on using software like Libreoffice, Thunderbird, KeepassXC, GIMP, F-droid, the Fossify suite etc.

AI is so young and people are already bullying it.

Imagine how magical and enchanting the world would feel if you believed that real people were painting pictures that fast.

Looks cool

Nah, GIMP is good.

Thanks so much for your comment - it’s given me confidence, compassion and some peace too :) It’s taken me nearly a week to read everyone’s replies and over that time it has made me feel quite emotional too. We all have so much love and goodness that we want to make happen the world. I’m eally glad I made this post.

What a great way of describing it. And what an absolute honour and privilege to be that for someone!

Yeah, it’s like that as an adult too. Pretty much everything feels better when there is a sense of compassion and empathy but not always the case with solutions. It makes me think that in general as humans we are much more concerned with each other than we are with the world. Or even ourselves, perhaps.

Thanks for your encouragement! And best wishes to you for the new one on the way :)

Thank you

Thanks for your comment :) Can I ask; what sort of ground rules did you have with your wife?

I can see see myself prone to those mistakes, as well as reluctant to avoid them. So it’s good to know they’re important and that it’s worth trying to. Thanks for that

I’m sorry that your dad said those things about food and weight and it caused that for you. I’m also really grateful for the advice and happy that you had sweet times together too. It’s really cool that he took you with him for hose trips.

Thanks so much for your advice. Listening has come a lot in this discussion and I wasn’t expecting it… Why is that? is it because listening shows a daughter that she matters?

All the best to you fellow father :)

Thanks, I really appreciate what you said. I feel like fiction/stories are gonna help me/us a lot

Can you explain?
