A foundational pillar of world peace is equitable world food distribution; only when basic needs are met can humans properly make use of their prefrontal cortex and be fully cooperative social beings.
"Landlord" and "tenant" are words steeped in ideas of power, dominance and social status. As such let's retire them. Instead we can have "housing provider" and "housing customer." These words tilt the balance the other way in our psychology. A provider has a responsibility and a customer has rights and expects a hight standard in the product and service. Words matter.
"It turns out, as obviousness would have it, that our brains (especially those of Stan Lee and Jack Kirby in this case) have been teaching us neurology through comic books and the movies that have come from them."

With all the academic foundation of a bouncy castle, our esteemed colleagues offer you a daily dose of blinkered bias. Here at 'Responsible Journalism' we know the difference between peace-making and shit-stirring. If only everyone did.
"For writers in the next half century and beyond, a comprehension of how creative writing, neurology, biology and our environment interact will be essential for a successful career."

"Adjective and noun associations are worthy of our consideration because by careful linkage of words such as 'black' with strong emotionally positive words (such as in 'black heavens' and 'noble black night') we can start to program subconscious bias from the brain by creating a background neurochemistry that is more positive. This keeps the prefrontal cortex more fully operational and encourages more empathy in both thoughts and behaviours. Thus society develops better through their own choices and evolves. This is part of social evolution and this kind of awareness in writers is essential."
In the mirror of the sun,
Duty from the heart is given,
We tax ourselves for others welfare,
We check ourselves,
Ensure our manners are right,
So that peace and cooperation is real,
That our nobility is a form of humbleness,
Uplifting to all around,
Duty is thus well mirrored,
From farm hand to king,
In a sustainable social ecosystem.
In the mirror of the eclipse,
Duty is money taken,
Tax is money taken,
Checks are money paid,
Manors are the homes of the takers,
Peace and cooperation are masks,
Nobility is unchecked ego,
Suppressing with unearned faux-superiority,
Easier physical work is deemed expensive,
Harder physical work is deemed cheap
In consumptive social abuse.
Yet to those born in an eclipse,
It is challenging to welcome,
The mirror of the sun.
"When we make daily choices that are emotionally indifferent, the sort that the money-nexus makes faux-virtues of, we build our capacity for emotional indifference at the direct expense of our capacity for empathy, and thus the conflict between money and love is laid bare."
Being hungry has lasting impacts on brain and body, it harms education, pushes up violence, decays society, pushes up needs for health care... what about a government partnership with large chain food restaurants to develop a healthy child and youth menu that our young folk can access for free? In terms of decrease in dealing with societal ills it would soon pay for itself.
My dear,
Take caution,
Of those who take,
Through the core shun,
Who take the time,
To see the angelic you,
The dear one,
So that they,
Can cost you dear,
To take and control,
All of you,
As you seek for their seal,
Of approval,
A thing,
They wield as weapon,
So take caution,
Of the core shun,
My dear.
