Cashew-beige not white

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. 

Think pink

The other day I read an article on social media about pink being used in prisons to calm down prisoners. The article claimed that the prisoners were less violent and stressed when the cells were painted pink.

In the Simpsons cartoon, the sitting room and dining room of the Simpsons house is painted pink and they also have a painting of a boat in placid water. I consider myself to be boat heading for placid waters myself and that is how I define myself. The boat heading for placid water.

Would it be a bad idea if I bought a pink lamp? Would pink light or pink paint make me a less stressed person? I don't know but I pay attention to official research.
