Is integrity still possible

I am soon to be 72years old. I have witnessed tremendous changes in my life. I have survived 11 presidents. I am not sure how many wars or other military adventures I have witnessed. I have seen us become a country more defined by what separates us than by what connects us. I have seen us become a country that sees the government as the least trustworthy, least honest and least responsive force…

Open letter to the antis

I must admit I've been blissfully left alone by this particular type of cyberbullying as of late, yet I've seen enough of it - and suffered enough of it by anons and not under my fics - to actually know what I am talking about.

So here we go.

Dear antis,

(whether you have the backbone to actually write with your own nickname or anonymously),

I think you have mistaken the Jonsa fandom for your personal, moral and metaphorical punchbag, just like outside of fandom the pack attacks either physically or morally (and yeah I mean even through the net) some people outside of their group, mistaking them for their punchbags thinking (wrongly) that they cannot persecuted, and feeling brave because they are behind a keyboard.

And just to make it clear, spell it out for you so that you don't come back at me: this goes for every occurrence during which people are bullied because of their difference in opinion. Whether over fictional character, political stances, religions, sexual orientation or the colour of one's skin.

Which, btw, that in the third millennium A.D., we still are here discussing about why attacking people because of our differences instead of take joy and pride in our differences because they are what has made humankind great, is wrong, there is something seriously wrong with us. In Italy we do have the saying il mondo è bello perché è vario (the world is beautiful because it's various/composed by differences)

In Italy we have a name for you, besides odiatori (which means haters); we call you leoni da tastiera (keyboard's lions) meaning those people who makes themselves strong because they are hiding behind an alias online and behind a device and a keyboard to write their hate, to bully and to generally disrespect other people.

Now, I cannot speak for other countries save for my own - though I did read this really amazing post which pointed out that in the US you can actually (and will) be persecuted for your cyberbullying - but I want to recount to you something that has been said on this matter during the Sanremo Festival, because I feel it is very compelling and should really be taken into consideration even when speaking to people of another country.

This is the post I refer to, about the illegality of anon and internet hate

https://reginarubie.tumblr.com/post/674694971611381760/bullying-and-cyberbullying-laws-across-america

Returning to what I meant to share with you all, Italy is quite young as a Republic, just think that up until the end of WWII we were still a kingdom (pretty young in that regard as well, because Italy unification didn't happen until 1861, but I'm digressing), so the works to write the constitution of our Repubblica didn't happen well after WWII was done with. We are speaking of times extremely difficult and during which the differences - in races (races do not exist btw), religion and sexual orientation - were actually pretty big deals, big enough that a whole world was characterised by the hate of the different.

While we may be, as a society, a bit behind on some of the American trends (like social networks and such) and cyberbullying may have been a thing years ago in the US, in Italy we have just recently started to actually think about it legally especially because our younger generations (as well as younger generations in the whole world) are paying the price of a misuse of the extremely helpful tool that the net can be.

Well, we might be forever behind on your trends (like this one of cyberbullying and cyber-harassing people) but at least in something we are way ahead than what I had originally thought.

Now, for those of you who don't know it, the Sanremo Festival is the Italian version of the Euro-song contest festival and it has being going on for over 72years and it's an event that is pretty much followed by the majority (we are talking of a five-days long song contest which happens from Tuesday to Saturday and goes on well into the little hours of the night, yet it still has the 65% and more of share) and other than listening to the songs there are also comical relief moments (which are usually more profound that one would assume) and very intense moments of discussion of the problems that our society is incurring with.

I have not been able to follow the entire nights of the festival this year since I had the late shift, but some of the in-between moments this year spoke of transphobia (I'll just resume it with a typical fairytale story about poor girl becoming a princess after a ball, only this time the poor girl was actually a trans girl; which ended up with the singer who was recounting it commenting on how "I might not be, in your opinion, neither male nor female, but you’re a jerk as whole"), racial hate (against one co-host of colour) always online and the matter of the online hater, the leoni da tastiera.

And it's this last matter confronted that I want to share with you. The intervention was made by an extremely young actor (already won prizes btw) and a renown Italian singer. They started by reading the kind of comments that, I despair, have become the standard and norm instead of being the exception to be used as a negative example to teach future generations how not to act.

The same kind of comments many receive on this platform like many others; the same kind of hate comments many of us gets because we ship a couple instead of another and we create content for it (which, you do realise how ridiculous and pathetic that is, don't you?); the same kind of hate people keep receiving because they express their opinion which doesn't align with the bully's.

Then, they just let our own constitution speak for us.

Article 21, of the Italian constitution goes like this:

Tutti hanno diritto di manifestare liberamente il proprio pensiero con la parola, lo scritto e ogni altro mezzo di diffusione.

La stampa non può essere soggetta ad autorizzazioni o censure.

(...)

Sono vietate le pubblicazioni a stampa, gli spettacoli e tutte le altre manifestazioni contrarie al buon costume. La legge stabilisce provvedimenti adeguati a prevenire e a reprimere le violazioni.

translation: Everyone has the right/is entitled to freely express their own thought/opinion with word, written text and with any other tool of diffusion (meaning the net as well, even if back in those time it didn't even exist).

Which would seem to point in the direction of "I can say whatever the hell I want". Wrong.

And the article goes on saying: the press(/whatever tool of diffusion of one opinion) cannot be censured or subjected to authorisations.

So, no censure in Italy. Thank you. Which is why I advocate so strongly the freedom of speech as long as people keep being polite, while I kept being polite if firm against those who insulted me.

Then on we go: The publications (of press/whatever tool of diffusion/shows) against morality and politeness are forbidden and the law establishes adeguate measures to prevent and repress this kind of violations.

Now, this last piece connects with the next article I'm going to show to you (like they showed to us at the Festival), which goes.

Article 3, Italian constitution

Tutti i cittadini hanno pari dignità sociale e sono eguali davanti alla legge, senza distinzione di sesso, di razza, di lingua, di religione, di opinioni politiche, di condizioni personali e sociali.

Translation: All citizens have equal social dignity and are equal before the law, with no differences based on gender, race read skin color, language, religion, political opinion, personal and social conditions.

Each and every aspect recalled to here (gender, race read skin color, language, religion, political opinion, personal and social conditions) are protected and discipled by articles ad hoc in the constitution in which the Italian "founders" set the fundaments of our society which is meant to be inclusive and tolerant toward each other to take the best from our differences (and by this I don't mean there are no social actual differences due incomprehension between people coming from different backgrounds, but that's neither here nor there, because we are speaking to ethics; that would be purely utopian).

A note: all citizen are equal before the law, but the law is not equal before every citizen, because in virtue of our differences the law adapts to give each and everyone of us the best outcome we deserve (so a disabled person is protected twice over than one who isn't for example)

The point I am reaching at, is that yes ethically you have the right to say all you want (not whatever the hell you want), but there are limits and those limits come into play when your opinion (or better the way you express it) damages the dignity of others especially when based on our differences.

And look;

If a bunch of people (non me ne vogliano i nostri constituenti) born in different times, with different backgrounds than ours and mindsets than ours (they were less cosmopolitan than we are), more wary of people different from them especially after a war where the different colour of one's uniform meant either killing or be killed, can understand and put into paper, as the fundamental law of the nation they want to build, the simple principle that having the freedom of speaking means also knowing where the limits lay and not cross them, avoiding damaging other people's dignity as we would not want our own be stepped over, why can't you?, people born after the war, people who (mis)use such a wonderful tool like the net that should bring us all together to enjoy our differences instead of hating on each other because of those?

Why do you keep insisting on hating, cyberharrassing and cyberbullying (only because you feel protected by the anonymity that the net platforms provide and thus entitled to say whatever the hell you want) when you could simply do the easiest, more wonderful thing in the world?

Why do you have this need to bring others down and tear 'em down to raise yourself up on a pedestal?

Why can't you just enjoy what you like and let others enjoy what they like, without being scornful, hateful or harassing of them for their opinions?

Are you really that insecure, to become so toxic?

News flash: there is no pedestal on which to rise yourself up after having shoved down those you perceive as on the top, and also.. what kind of joy do you find in shoving people down to sit yourself in the one you perceive to be their place?

Fondly,

~Giulia.

Inspirational Bamboo Flooring Ideas

Only Five Odd Years Ago, Bamboo Flooring Was As Foreign To Me As Flying Into Outer Space. Well, Just Like Bill Shatner, I Now Know That Sometimes, Imagination Plus Determination = Reality.

Completely by accident, Bamboo flooring and indeed Bamboo per se came to my attention as a result of stubbing my toe on a raised hardwood floorboard. Fast forward to 2019 and I’m sharing an ale or two with my neighbour (a carpet layer) and pontificating on the pros and cons of Bamboo flooring vs carpet. Very long story short, he informed me that the retailer for whom he plied his trade was considering the cessation of that establishment dealing in the product. My curious nature demanded further insight into this peculiar, pending end to what I believed was a perfectly good solution to my flooring needs.

Ït shrinks in Tassie’s dry climate” came the unexpected retort and despite the convivial exchange lasting some extended period, Ally & I were coherent enough the next day to order a new carpet floor!

Due diligence is something we practice –  well………diligently – yet our reliable and generally ‘non salesy’ neighbour may well have pulled a swifty on us. You see, just fifteen minutes prior to writing this article, diligent me spoke with a most affable Mark of Tasmanian Floor Surfacing Co https://www.floorsandingtas.net/ whose business has been operating in Tasmania for 72years. I’m more than happy to give him a shout out as I not only enjoyed our conversation, he informed me that he “had NEVER, EVER had a problem with Bamboo flooring”, with which he had been dealing for some fifteen years!

In the interest of fairness, I checked with the company for whom my former  neighbour lay carpets and guess what……….they still sell and recommend Bamboo flooring. According to Mark (and it makes perfect sense), any solid timber flooring exposed directly to say a wood heater or heat pump will naturally contract and that’s why they are sealed and resealed over time.

So, it seems I have a bone to pick with my former neighbour and I’m very pleased to say that my (somewhat overdue) – due diligence, has me lining up for my next floor renewal – BAMBOO! 

If you were contemplating the same, I trust the following article gives you some insight and food for thought.

When choosing bamboo flooring, it is essential to understand the different types of bamboo and their characteristics. Features such as color, texture, and pattern can make a big difference to the appearance of a floor. Bamboo also has various advantages and disadvantages, as well as suitable locations for its installation.

This gallery shows bamboo flooring installed in a variety of environments and different styles of interior design.

1. Bamboo Floor In An Open Kitchen

Bamboo has many natural wood characteristics, which means that it fits in perfectly with other hardwood items such as cabinets. The bamboo flooring in this kitchen is paired with golden oak hardwoods for a warm, rustic palette, accented by grey granite countertops and a stainless steel bar.

2. Bamboo Flooring And Walls

Bamboo can be installed above the floor, as walls, cabinets, and shelves. This indoor pond house is designed to look like an extension of the outdoors. The elegant envelope features matching bamboo flooring and cabinets with contrasting black countertops.

3. Non Carbonized Bamboo In The Kitchen

bamboo flooring Store Bamboo undergoes a process of steaming or smoking to obtain an amber hue, which is called carbonization. When bamboo is not carbonized, it retains its natural straw color, as shown in the flooring above.

Carbonization also makes the bamboo slightly softer and more expensive. The soft color of the bamboo flooring in this kitchen matches the softness of the white cabinets.

4. Horizontal Bamboo Planks With Knuckles

The texture of the Horizontal bamboo flooring shows the nodes of the plant. The nodes are the places where the stalks of the bamboo gather as they grow taller. This is a look usually associated with bamboo flooring. Horizontal bamboo flooring has a less uniform, more natural, and distinctive look.

5. Vertical Bamboo Planks Without Knuckles

As shown in the picture, vertical bamboo flooring is created by standing hundreds of strips of bamboo material side by side and laminating them together. These planks do not show the natural knots of the bamboo plant. Instead, the planks look more like straight bamboo stacked on top of each other, giving the floor a clean, uniform appearance.

6. Bamboo Flooring In A Traditional Living Room

The bamboo flooring looks versatile and suits any interior, even traditional interiors like the one shown above. The trick is to keep the bamboo flooring on the darker side to best mimic traditional hardwood flooring so that it blends well with the other wood tones in the room.

7. Bamboo Flooring In A Contemporary Space

Bamboo flooring keeps this open, modern space light and bright, even with contrasting carpet. The light, natural bamboo flooring complements the modern furniture.

8. Bamboo Flooring In A Hallway

The strength and durability of bamboo make it an ideal material for steps and stairs. Bamboo withstands the pressure of pets’ paws and heavy steps very well. The bamboo staircase here connects two rooms on the same floor. Always choose the highest quality bamboo for steps and stairs.
