I'm a white man but I don't see myself as white, I see myself as light beige like a processed cashew nut, or like a peanut split in the middle. If there was a zombie apocalypse, I could hide in a cashew processing factory and I would disappear in plain sight. If I put white paper or toothpaste on my skin, there is a big difference in the colour. If I was actually white in colour, I would go to hospital for suspected internal bleeding. I accept that society simplifies our identity so I'll call myself a white man but I don't like it. I'm Alan first and a white guy second. I have a little world of my own.
There are lots of things happening all around us, conflicts, exploration and breakthroughs. It would be nice if we live in a world where respect isn't conditional, it is default. I wouldn't want to be respected because of a thing. I would want respect because I didn't do anything negative to anyone.
I was thinking about dots for a while, I was wondering if there is an easy way to make an LCD display as a hobby. It's on the bucket list. Perhaps a simple 10 by 10 dot display.
