#NoteToSelf: THE ROADS ARE STILL THERE
“Almost everything in AWS depends on DN $CRM,” he says. “When it fails, it’s like every taxi driver losing access to $GOOG Maps. They may not be able to find their destinations, even though the roads are still there.”

That’s the current we surf on? The idea of gov’t: @INTERPOL cannot build, permit or enforce locally, and #hoomans won’t build families if no one owns their secret garden (it’s not acceptable to rent your awareness, from media, social media or your group chat).
Everyone hides their secret garden, male and female, from real estate speculators. Rent gets paid AFTER employers do (taxes); kids, small biz eat #BossKids profit, aka leftover surplus.
WE NEED THE IMAGE: “Idiot Are You Stupid GIF” This GIF, with a nurse gesturing toward the camera, signaling ok while finishing with the Greek sign (palm extended to the other in a gesture of clawing), that gesture means someone is really pissed off at you because you have crossed a boundary, and they want to blind you, even if they stop short of doing that.
That image/GIF was chosen because it’s like the hidden planet you use to claim no one can possibly understand what your motivation or context is, it is so mysterious (The Great Mysteries), it has to be seen through a pinhole camera like an eclipse, by a cyclops (that’s a joke, sorry it’s not funny) and the only thing you have to obscure your nakedness is THE SAME LANGUAGES WE ALL DO.
This is the unreceived message, almost always:
The action is required : I am not unaware of the request, is that everyone needs to hear. Understanding is like having another notice your need, as a desire. Their response connects the conversation to a resource or service, or inventory control, if you have to ‘give it away’ for the culture.
Good or interesting or productive conversations move forward, not immediately backward into a defensive, reporting to power company, metered (measured and skeptical) position.
