"News about Biden, Trump, COVID, or inflation is easy and ubiquitous... But finding out what’s happening in your community, school district, or local downtown area is nearly impossible. It is a premium news product, and yet few media outlets embrace it. And then along comes this student radio station running circles around their much larger and better-funded colleagues. It is truly inspiring." [Paul Jacobs]

Another excellent piece by @pluralistic rebutting the premature "death" of #Mastodon and the #fediverse pieces being pushed by journalists who seem to either have an agenda or are actively misleading their readers due to their ineptitude and laziness.

There's very few Republican billionaire donors funding sedition.

Around 63. That's manageable.

Most are elderly. Go after their sources of income.

Buy less gasoline. Switch to a heat pump. Go solar. Don't shop at Uline, Home Depot or Hobby Lobby. Protest pipeline construction. Don't buy Oracle. Support Ukraine. Stay out of the stock market. Support taxing the rich. Support laws restricting hedge funds & ending Citizens United.

Don’t forget: The GOP’s nonsensical culture war is meant to distract you from corporate corruption, worker oppression, and staggering wealth inequality.

The 7 year old girl who kept her hand on her little brother's head to protect him while they were under the rubble for 17 hours has made it safely. I see no one sharing. If she were dead, everyone would share! Share positivity...
