I'm feeling the harshness of the world very keenly lately and had a hellish night last night. Once I emerged enough from my cocoon, this thread came to mind. Here are some ideas I'd like to see added to Shimmerzville.
1. Children are safe and protected wherever they go. Everyone treats them with love and respect and keeps an eye out for them, so they are free to roam and there is always someone to keep them safe. Their families always put their needs first.
2. The top priority is for everyone to get what they need. Food, shelter, and people who care are ahead of everything else. No one is concerned with making a profit or with any kind of artificially manufactured need. All the time freed by not pursuing the next rung on the ladder of success and creating the illusion of lack, is then freed up to make sure everyone has their basic needs met. We find there are more than enough resources to go around.
3. Due to the above, there is no need for money at all. Everyone can afford to be generous and use their skills and talents to improve conditions for everyone.
4. Promises are always kept.
5. Everyone is issued a magic wand they can use for whatever purpose they wish, as long as it doesn't infringe on what anyone else is creating. Want to make a trigger disappear? Just wave your wand. Want your own climate zone, say, tropical while the person next to you prefers snow? You can both have whatever you desire. Wands have shimmers on the ends that fly around every time you wave them in whatever colour you desire, appropriate to the name of the town.
6. No thunderstorms allowed. At least not around my place. I could create my own storm-free area with my wand if need be.
7. The power never goes out.
8. The words "just get over it" are banned.
9. It is illegal to walk away from someone who is suffering, unless you secure support from someone else to take over.
10. Unkindness of any kind is not allowed. Of course, it wouldn't occur to anyone anyway.
11. I'd like a house like a combination house and greenhouse, heated with passive solar, filled with edible and decorative plants and pools for lilies and goldfish.
12. Any circumstances creating cognitive dissonance or internal conflict are treated as a town emergency and immediately addressed until the issue is solved.
13. It is to be considered illegal to separate by force any two or more people who do not want to be separated.
14. Houses are magically kept clean and free of clutter by sensors that come out and night and magically set everything in order.
15. You become magically invisible to anyone you don't feel like talking to.
16. People are educated to understand differences and be kind about them. For instance, people would understand the difference between being shy and being unfriendly.
