Shirk-life balance

The active consideration of your need to relax in relation to your work life. A failure to acknowledge your need to shirk during the working week could lead to unnatural levels of stress and taking yourself dangerously seriously. An increase in nap time while working from home could constitute a positive addition to your shirk-life balance.

Balance

Balance is not moving a Confederate statue somewhere nobody will argue over it and keeping it hidden, like an ostrich head. Balance is a Martin Luther King statue here in your face, and right next to it is a Confederate statue in your face, whether you like it or not. It's not compromising everything to get along, since that's a good way to end up fucked by the people trying to get you to compromise (and lose) everything.
Balance is not always pretty or peaceful, and it isn't meant to be that way.

Contribution Balanced Participation

A way of contribution to services that comes from gifting culture. It allows for people to choose their contribution from 0 to ∞. It enables everyone to meet in the same circle, as we all have something to learn from each other. It is the most inclusive way of contributing to each other.

It can be shuffled within a sentence when you use it.

This is the explanation used to introduce it:

Today, it is an undeniable situation that there is a gap between people's solvency —ability to pay.

With this awareness, we believe everyone giving what they can according to their wealth is the best way going forward in terms of equal access rights.

People with more wealth can give more, while people with less wealth can give less. We don't expect to see proof of wealth. We simply believe in the integrity and fairness of your choice. We expect you to decide how much you value this journey and your contribution.

This way, we unlock the opportunity to give everyone access to this experience and contribute. We balance this contribution thanks to you. We want people without the ability to pay at the moment to benefit as well. We think, through this inclusivity, all of us can meet around the same circle. We are introducing the Contribution Balanced Participation Fee to unveil the unifying power of money.

Where do you see yourself creating this balance?

You can choose anything between 0 — ∞. The choice is yours.
I made my contribution balanced participation to an amazing Design Playing™ program.
I balanced my contribution by paying them €1000, so that all these people who couldn't pay can participate as well.

Balanced

No shade of skin being more or less powerful than another would be balanced.
The world has been out of balance for a long time, and people have been walking around off balance. Getting in line won't make anything more balanced, since lines tend to tip a balance.
