Let’s try a little sharing game on my stream. #TipOfDay
As long as I know folks may be interested, I’ll do a one-a-day theme post. Creates a collection searchable by hashtag. Any topic but to be part of it, repeat the hashtag of my daily post. Show me if you are interested by a comment, reply with a new top, fave or boost. Each day you can do a hashtag search if you wish to find one. Next post starts it.

Twitter is dying, but my advocacy work helping trans people raise money via fundraisers depends on my five years of work I've spent writing on Twitter, so I need help.

If you're a trans person who needs help raising money for any reason, reply to this toot with your fundraiser. I'll reach out.

If you're a cis person and you can, please boost this post so your trans followers can see it.

Interesting moment from earlier in the day:

Echoing the state judge who presided over Trump's arraignment, the federal judge presiding over #EJeanCarroll v. #Trump warned the parties to refrain from making statements that would incite violence or civil unrest.

There are precisely two cases I've covered in more than a decade in which I can recall the judge giving such a warning, both with case captions ending in "vs. Trump." #legal

As a Neo-Luddite who knows quite a lot about modern technology, "ambient computing" is one of the most horrifying ideas in tech over recent years.

I sure don't want buggy, corporate owned, oppressive bullshit disembodied all around myself like some vague malicious miasma.

I prefer my technology in a form where I can smash it to pieces if needed, thank you very much.

New federal bipartison bill would set age limits for social media and establish government run Internet-use ID system [like in China]. Both parties want the U.S. Internet to be like the Communist Chinese Internet. -

We've already been the victim of a coal ash release upstream from one of the retention ponds. It's not this power plant but another one that closed and is being "cleaned" up.

They quietly were dumping it before getting caught when cleaning it up.

Our water came out all dirty, stinky and whatnot. Our water intake for city service was downstream of the release

Record heat in California's Sierras over next week, and the flooding will be intense as the largest snowpack in recent history melts rapidly.

'Freedom' and 'crisis' are the two most over used words in politics today.

Both are vague and meaningless when campaigning for office.

I don't usually post stuff from the other place but this is VERY IMPORTANT.
