Hi Ma,

Welcome to Ohio and the Amish family. Hoping you and Chris are having a great time, and good travels, and connecting in a new way, if you haven't been there yet. Learning about cultural thinking processes from a former(?) agricultural community & group, traditional and old-fashioned, now navigating the world of modernity, with the Internet or 'internetity' too, - and the law - by now running something like a bed & breakfast. Depending what you learn, and how old fashioned they are ('old order' Amish?) they may not have the internet or electricity, but may appreciate the money for staying there.

Appreciating George's standing by The Desiderata -

https://www.desiderata.com/desiderata.html

when we visited them at Kendal Crossland's, as a Lacanian psychiatrist psychoanalytic thinker, "But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings.

Am recognizing that although you as Unitarians may be also helping these Amish out by staying with them, and financially, there could be other ways they could get money, for example, with Stanford Mine Pi cryptocurrency for free, which they could get here -

https://minepi.com/sgkmac

 - but that while this Amish family may have electricity, they may not have the internet. However they're navigating internetity (with you a two computer user), they might not chose to earn Stanford Mine Pi or not (like yourself), am appreciative of George's thinking (Desiderata, - and even its kind of departure from Lacan & Freud) re psychiatry, where one early definition of psychoanalysis might have been 'soul therapy'. How is this family doing? How is their family religion and culture supporting them? Would the Desiderata be a good idea to share with them too? Could they benefit from Stanford Mine Pi too? If you get their email addresses, do you want to send this free money -

https://minepi.com/sgkmac -

 to them, and to Christine too, as Unitarians ?

How to get Stanford Mine Pi via UBI EXPERIMENTS to most of all 7.8 billion people, beyond UN mobile phone distribution centers, for example, to the old order Amish, who may never embrace electricity or the internet?

Love, and abolition-ally yours, Scott

How best live out west here, with a life partner, MD, who's seeking, - a 27 yo graduate of Harvard Medical School, or similar, and wonderful?

(Reached out to a Univ of Chicago Prof Catriona MacLeod here yesterday in some of these regards http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/10/skypilot-scotland-world-university-and.html


PPS

Too alone here? ... Possibly, but if I could begin traveling to Harbin Hot Springs about weekly for next Ethnographic book and research (and safely, re Harvard networking too) much would change in some ways, physical and travel movement wise too. More circulation might lead to meeting a partner, but it hasn't, to Harbin, in the past .... Spending 3 months a year in Cambridge MA with a good community might open ways to meeting a life partner by contrast.

Ma, Ed, Henry, John, Joan, All, 


What is 'Internet ity'  ... I wrote about this in a 2000 UC Berkeley Anthropology paper (and possibly may have coined the word ...)

"In this paper I suggest that modernity yields one interpretation of touristic experience, postmodernity may construct another, and Thurot and Thurots’ interpretation of advertising discourse produces yet another. Tourism,[1] now, in the context of the growth of the Internet and information technology[2] ("internetity") supersedes and incorporates these previous analyses and produces other interpretations of tourism with characteristics which I shall identify." - http://scottmacleod.com/anth250v.htm (also here - http://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2020/02/arctostaphylos-uva-ursi-combining.html ) 

So I wonder if, and think that, the internet, so here - the virtual, digital, or cyber - offers an opportunity, and also regarding The Desiderata's  

"Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery."

to further develop approaches to even not only ending poverty worldwide, with something like Stanford Mine Pi Cryptocurrency free money 

but also developing new approaches to abolition of the illegal sex trade and industry, to psychiatry, law, law enforcement ... and culture (eg thanks to Quaker's historical successes to abolition of slavery, and now potentially informed approaches to the abolition of the illegal sex industry, possibly, and perhaps thanks to Unitarian's history with the abolition of slavery too, particularly in New England) ... to protect innocents, victims, and similar ... regarding thanks to the internet ... 

Creating remarkable online experiences, which is what Google does, per this recent great interview between Sundar Pichai, CEO of Alphabet and Google, with Matt Murray, editor-in-chief at the WSJ ... 
https://twitter.com/sundarpichai/status/1450243679323521026?s=20 ... with a focus on a realistic virtual Harbin Hot Springs for ethnographic, and brain / STEM, research in the Harbin warm pool (and even regarding protecting possible victims with and) into avatar bot electronic medical records is newly possible ... and even emerging from a Friends' Hospital collaboration, which is the oldest continuously operating mental hospital in the USA since 1813 and which takes an asylum approach ...  https://scott-macleod.blogspot.com/2021/07/simian-avatar-bot.html ...

Impoverished myself, and living in a 'safe house' and wondering about seeking asylum in the spring, I'd be interested in beginning to be able to buy things with the 2,164 Pi coin I have accumulated thus far, and with the Google Pay App on my Pixela smartphone ... 

I doubt I'll hear back from them directly.

(psychiatry-wise, and per George Alexander MD's clinical psychiatric practice and thinking)?


Again,

Not sure ... 🙂


Abolition ahead, 

Scott


PS

Another bit of back text thinking re my mother heading to Ohio to spend a couple of nights in an Amish place -


'Ma, safe travels! Please remember abolition-ally that in the internet age, so much is video recorded, even without our knowledge, and in remote locations - and regarding the law, both state and federal! Hoping your visiting with the Amish family can be Desiderata-informed (re watching out for much trickery in the world, and regarding my email to you earlier today!) Love, Scott (How will an abolitionist movement best grow re ending the illegal sex industry I wonder? What can we learn from abolishing slavery, with 1833 law in Britain and the USA's 1862 Emancipation proclamation ... And historically-culturally since then too? )
