@dangillmor strong disagree. Wait and see what? Whether federation with #Threads ruins the culture that we came here for, if it damages the fediverse, or if #Meta are not a malevolent corporation after all, but just made honest mistakes.
You're a smart man Dan so I'm surprised to see you say that.
This is what I’ve been saying about a lot of this Biden hate being performative BS by people who don’t actually vote anyway
To be clear, this is no time to get complacent, but we shouldn’t be doom & gloom either
NYT: "#Biden leads by 6 pts among voters who particip in 2020 election while #Trump holds 22pt lead among those who did not vote in ‘20.
In our est, needless to say, 2020 nonvoters less likely to vote in 2024;that’s why we show Biden ahead among likely voters”
"If we do this correctly — if the next phase of how we congregate and communicate online is built for humans and not advertisers — there won’t be a new titanic company to rival Meta or a platform with eye-poppingly huge numbers like Facebook
"What we’ll get instead is something much bigger: an entirely new infrastructure for our online lives that no company or platform controls”
UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS
go to the Labor Dept nearest you & fill out a request for payouts. it is imperative you do so because if your employer didn't pay for the insurance, they get to have the DOL fine their asses.
#MEDICAID BEFORE #COBRA
Medicaid is like Medicare for all but the money & benefits are controlled by the state, not the federal government. NY has one of the best. Mississippi, one of worse. either way, get to the nearest office before you cut a check for #COBRA.
#Fascism isn’t an ancient relic or an outdated term; it has returned as a living, breathing process transforming and weaponizing the state against its people.
Few remain from the generation that watched the #ideology take hold and mutate and unfold its horrors the first time, and without that living memory, we are challenged to explain what fascism was and how it worked.
Old-growth forests sequester much more carbon than younger forests.
It makes more sense to focus on not cutting down trees rather than planting new trees since it takes two to three decades for trees to reach full maturity, if they survive.
