    Everyone forms communes that reflect their personal values. I would prefer one with direct democracy, and no representatives.

    However big a commune you want, but I’d recommend keeping it at 2000 people or less. Anymore and people start to see each other as strangers, not community members. Plus direct democracy works better with smaller population numbers.









  • Get a sleep lab done and check if you need a CPAP machine.

    There is so much most want to do in life. Perhaps you are stretching yourself to thin, trying to do it all at once. Don’t see the current lack of something as “killing” your hobbies. They aren’t dead, you’re working towards those things. It’s a plan for the future. Right now you’re focusing the energy you have right now on something else (for now).






  • The LWV (League of Woman Voters) sponsored the United States presidential debates in 1976, 1980 and 1984.[60][61] On October 2, 1988, the LWV’s 14 trustees voted unanimously to pull out of the debates, and on October 3 they issued a press release condemning the demands of the major candidates’ campaigns. LWV President Nancy Neuman said that the debate format would “perpetrate a fraud on the American voter” and that the organization did not intend to “become an accessory to the hoodwinking of the American public.”[62][63] All presidential debates since 1988 have been sponsored by the Commission on Presidential Debates,[64] a bipartisan organization run by the two major parties that some argue has established rules with the intent to exclude airing candidates associated with other parties.[65]
