Look out for more children's voices in the #KidsFirst film @OurKidsClimate & @parents4futureG created
It's coming out Nov 10. Watch this space! #moa
Yes, and this is one feature that people wanted on Twitter and never got.
I love how you can quickly "delete and re-draft" posts with typos and I've taken advantage of this feature a lot already. But I'll leave the missing word above "...from London *to* the rest of the world" since this post has already been shared a bit.
@neiljrubenking Welcome, don't forget to post an #Introduction and include #Tags to illustrate interests.

Indeed, the governments response on PMQs was to say they are helping people in to work. The question didn't even mention the constituent being out of work, even those in work are struggling., which I think was the point being made.

@zleap @bestforbritain There is lingering so much uncertainty here in the UK about how people can pay their bills, eat and also keep a roof above their heads. Mental Health problems have gone through the roof. Some uncertainty is okay but uncertainty to even cover basic needs will lead to riots, an increase in criminal activity, substance misuse and suicide. It's a collapse of society. It costs a country more to get people out of poverty than to invest money to prevent it.
Also if bad behaviour is attention seeking giving people attention is going to encourage them further.
So on here, someone posts something bad, abusive we respond by blocking / muting, there is an old saying from early internet
"Don't feed the trolls"
By posting abuse, you seek a response, so you can troll back, by blocking you I give you a response but not the response you want.
Of course some abuse warrants further action report to admins and even involving the authorities, but that gets more complex.
I'm slightly cynical about even real life behaviour and I think the only reason people behave OK in some public areas is because of CCTV and others smartphones, and that there's a level beyond which if they push things eventually some authority (security guard/cop) ejects them from the space they are in - and even then there are those who will misbehave directly under cameras. But encouragement to behave well needs to come from peer groups as well as outside authorities..
Sounds like it could be a scam. But good point on where the e-mail came from.
There is a site somewhere that you can type in your e-mail address and it tells you if any sites associated with that e-mail have been hacked.
Something like Have I been pwned or something.
Hello, Fediverse! ✈️
Cockpit is #web based #UI for #Linux servers. (It's like a desktop for a server that you can use in your browser, for "newbies", seasoned admins, and everyone in-between.)
You can configure a server, modify your network (and firewall!), view logs, see system stats, edit accounts, start and stop services, debug #SELinux, and much more.
Add-ons are available to work with #Podman #containers, #VirtualMachines, #ostree, and more.
After a few days of using #mastodon and loving it. I'm proud to say I'm officially off the bird site.
@godlessmom
I think it may be Fedizen so a cross between Fediverse and Citizen.
📈 Donations through Liberapay have jumped up a bit this week, as hundreds of you have started financially supporting the Mastodon and other Fediverse instances you have accounts on. As a result, we've reached new all-time highs: the number of accounts actively giving or receiving money through Liberapay has crossed the 10k threshold, and the weekly sum of active donations has risen above €15k.

I am really worried for what is coming in the budget. Snr politicians really do not get the dire situation people are in.

@zleap @bestforbritain that's what I was saying when everyone started clapping every Thursday like a seal on speed. I didn't participate I demanded higher pay for the NHS staff. Gosh, here in Cornwall where I live they turned it into a party by playing loud music outside and drinking lots of alcohol and dancing. It was surreal and I found it very disrespectful. And this government who clapped is denying now proper wages for nurses. It makes me so angry. 😕
@stux Standards in society have changed in the UK to the people where people abuse others with impunity.
In the UK we seem to have the idea that we sholld not criminalise children as it affects their future.
At one time, actions had consequences you were taught that, in the hope that one day you would think before doing / saying something you may regret.
That abuseis now part of the offline and online world, with the same zero consequences.
I think here we have a chance to at least take back OUR rights from the abusers / bullies. Something that is very much needed and welcome.

@bestforbritain I agree, we need to treat health professionals at ALL levels properly, with respect and pay them accordingly.
