This is exactly the kind of work the Catholic Church should be doing. Glad they’re stepping up. 🙏🏽 Archdiocese of Los Angeles launches program to help families impacted by immigration raids. The raids have made immigrants worried to leave their homes.

I find it funny that a guy called pirate software got really upset at the notion that if a publisher takes down an online game, some fans will do some software piracy to create fan made servers to get it back running.

I have released a new Shavian keyboard layout, 'Shaw JAFL', for use with the Keyman app. The layout has been designed with carpalx to minimise typing effort, with common letters in the home row and compound letters built up by typing their parts (e.g. 𐑩 + 𐑮 = 𐑼). www.shavian.info/shaw_jafl_ke...

I seriously think the Social Internet is 21st century cigarettes. Complete with secondary smoke causing a lot of harm in nonusers.

The Minnesota shooter apparently used data broker websites to find the home addresses of the people he shot and murdered. Congress has had years to do something about data brokers and they've sided with the tech lobby over and over again. Their inaction is deadly.

The #NoKingsDay protests were overwhelmingly peaceful, an estimated 5 million Americans standing up to Trump's attempt to turn their country into an hereditary kleptocracy. #NewsCorpse must have done a lot of digging to come up with this one case of unrest (↘️) ...

Providing homeless people with housing: - reduces crime - increases employment - improves health - does not increase reliance on social benefits. 80% of the costs are offset by the benefits in the first 18 months. Evidence from the US

Bolt scoffs at "Albo the Catholic". He'd much rather believers listen to him, a talking head for billionaires ("eye of a needle", anyone?) whose support for Catholics is marked by a staunch defence of ... George Pell. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone, Lucifer's Lips: #NewsCorpse

Eugenicists are so stupid.

My girlfriend just made me jump out of my skin because she said "look at the time!" because the clock said quarter-past 12 and we had to be at a friend's birthday at 1pm. It was daylight savings last night, I've been played it's only 11 o'clock.

I got #mastodon recently. I've been enjoying exploring what's different and what's the same as BlueSky. I had some choice paralysis deciding between the different servers, but settled on the default mastodon.social.

I think it'd be cool if big platforms like YouTube had some way that you could set up an ATprotocol account linked to your url on that platform. I imagine the decentralised nature of such platforms would make it hard, but it could reduce the need for 'THIS is me, THAT is a scam account' PSAs.

Australia urgently needs to make regulatory investments in drug safety, air safety, food safety. U.S. regulation is no longer reliable, and the international community needs to reconfirm anything that they claim. The group of countries whose regulation can be trusted no longer includes the USA.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there. The show must go on.

Dems would get much more traction finding and promoting people saying what they know and experience. What has more impact, This man speaking his mind or the Dems speaking “in unison “ ?

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

I would like this comic I drew in 2017 to stop being relevant pleeeaaaaase

Cars are incredible machines that will continue to be a vital transportation solution in the future. But regular people shouldn't need one. Streets full of giant metal boxes that only use 1/10th their volume for their occupant are obviously inefficient once you cast off the biases of car-centrism.

My son is enjoying his book but says "I really need it not to have a sad ending." He's reading 1984.

real ones know that the tv you play your video games on doesn’t matter— it’s what’s in your heart that determines your experience.

Books make for such satisfying present shapes; a nice aesthetic square package wrapped nicely (extra points for a bow!)

The sax in Men at Work’s ‘Who Can It Be Now?’ would make a great car horn.

I LOVE Titanfall II. I played it on a beat up office PC from 2012 last year, had to have it running in windowed mode on lowest graphics but still thought it was beautiful. I even started to get OK at the movement and multiplayer.

I can't believe there's people finding out about THE ODYSSEY because of the new Nolan film and complaining about spoilers. Sir please it was written almost 3000 years ago what spoilers are you talking about.

IDK who needs to hear this, but you're allowed to like one part of a band's discography and not the other. You don't have to know the whole history of a band to be a fan. You can just simply LIKE the music. You don't need to know names of every album or song or band member. You can just LIKE music.

DOSTOEVSKY: Is it ok to take the law into your hands and kill a class enemy? EVERYONE: Wow this is such a profound difficult question. This is the greatest book of all time LUIGI: Is it ok to take the law into your hands and kill a class enemy? EVERYONE: NO, duh. That's obviously wrong

The pub quiz asked which heavenly body orbited the sun at 1 au and I said the Moon and they said no the answer is the Earth and I said that is literally the only thing in the universe that is not a heavenly body and they did not give me the point and yes I am still sore about it.
