jonny (good kind)Periodic reminder in light of the #nyt strike that #wordle started life as a free, vanilla javascript website with no DRM and not owned by the nyt, and I packed it into a single html file that you can download and run offline or from any site, like this: https://jon-e.net/wordle.html

Emily 🏳️⚧️ (Sad Music Era)I was trying to think of simple legal changes that would make America better for everyone.
The first one that comes to mind is: "Set corporate fines for ANYTHING to be minimum 150% of the money they profited from their lawbreaking, as assessed independently by the government".
Get rid of the concept as "fines as a cost of doing business" and turn them into actual deterrents.
This comes from Yet Another "Oopsie' from local chemical plants.
I don't even play overwatch, but holy shit is this a rugpull on you all that do.
Ulises Lafuente RamosGreetings, I am an anti AI, anti twitter blue, fiercely progressive human artist. I've been drawing for three days for 10 hours straight and I'm exhausted, so I'd be very grateful if you could help me increase my audience by showing my art to more people. thanks!
Scott Jenningsi know this makes me an evil person but i get to the part of "her genitals reach the man's" and i can't stop thinking of someone approvingly saying "BIG STRETCH!"

Stark Raving Sane GamesHi Mastodon! I'm a #solodev working on the narrative adventure game "The Knight & the Maiden: A Modern Medieval Folk-Tale", inspired by the late Middle Ages.
The noblewoman Charlotte must disguise herself as the "Mystery Knight" to win a tourney and save her father from an unjust imprisonment, but then she falls in love with a princess and things get… complicated.
(Sorry, I'm from Twitter, I have no idea how this place works. 😅)
Bread and CircusesOh, man. This comic — from 1993 — could NOT be more relevant today. As usual, Bill Watterson hits it out of the park.

Attached: 1 image Don't ever let anyone tell you we don't have enough money to fight climate change, or to reduce income inequality, or to begin the shift toward degrowth. The money is there. It's just being spent in all the wrong ways and all the wrong places... __________________________ Trillions of dollars of subsidies for fossil fuels, farming, and fishing are causing “environmental havoc,” according to the World Bank, severely harming people and the planet. Many countries spend more on harmful subsidies than they do on health, education, or poverty reduction, the bank says, and the subsidies are entrenched and hard to reform as the greatest beneficiaries tend to be rich and powerful. In 2021, UN agencies reported that almost 90% of agricultural subsidies harmed people’s health and the climate, and drove inequality, while the IMF found that trillions of dollars of fossil fuel subsidies were “adding fuel to the fire” of the climate crisis at a time when rapid cuts in carbon emissions were needed. Fossil fuels are “vastly underpriced,” the report says, while subsidy reforms “save lives.” Pollution from fossil fuels causes 8.7 million deaths a year, according to a 2021 study, one in five of all deaths globally. Subsidies for agriculture are “unequal and unwise,” the report says. “Not only do these subsidies promote inefficiencies, but they also cause much environmental havoc.” The report found that subsidized fertilizer caused so much overuse in some regions that it reduced crop yields, while also causing huge nitrogen pollution. It also found farm subsidies were responsible for the destruction of 5.4 million acres of forest a year, about 14% of global deforestation, which leads to almost 4 million extra cases of malaria a year. Fishing subsidies amount to about $118 billion a year and are a key factor in the over-exploitation of marine life, which has sent the oceans into “a collective state of crisis,” according to the report. The report says government subsidies today make up an “enormous share of public budgets worldwide, perhaps larger than at any point in human history.” __________________________ It's a vicious cycle between Big Oil, Big Ag, and Big Government, with money going round and round and round. That cycle *must* be broken. Capitalism got us into this mess. Capitalism cannot get us out of this mess. We need system change NOW.
