There is a Fediverse alternative to Substack called Ghost. It allows you to host blogs and newsletters in a very similar way to Substack, but it has much less problematic management and you can host your own Ghost-powered site if you want to.

Lots more info about Ghost in the guide at:

➡️ https://fedi.tips/ghost-blogs-and-newsletters-on-the-fediverse

Would also highly recommend the article by @molly0xfff which outlines the advantages of Ghost over Substack:

I’m an adult and that means I can put a tent on my bed and nobody can stop me.

Republicans finally agreed to fund all of DHS (including TSA) with the exception of ICE…

…until Trump had a tantrum on social media, deployed ICE to our airports, and demanded that the GOP passes his voter suppression legislation first.

Trump and Republicans are responsible for all of the airport chaos. https://punchbowl.news/article/senate/trump-thune-dhs/

Trump to Thune: No deal with Democrats

With the DHS shutdown now in its 37th day, Senate Majority Leader John Thune approached Trump with a new proposal on Sunday.

April 1, the Supreme Court will hear Trump v. Barbara, a case about whether President Trump can rip up birthright citizenship with an executive order. Let's be clear, he cannot.

My father arrived in the U.S with $30 and a belief in a country that promised your worth would not be determined by where you were born, but by what you built and how you lived.

That promise is now under attack. On April 1, SCOTUS will hear a case challenging Trump’s attempt to end birthright citizenship in the U.S. A move that would throw countless families into chaotic and harmful legal uncertainty.
Here's what's at stake and how we defend our constitutional rights.

If Birthright Citizenship Falls–The American Experiment Fails

On April 1 the ACLU is going to the Supreme Court to defend the Constitutional guarantee of birthright citizenship–here is what you need to know I am an immigrant. In 1977, my father arrived in the United States with $30 in his pocket. That was it. No guarantees. No

I assume, the Iranians are not lying. I don't believe we've had serious contact with them since a few days after the US and Israel attacked them.

I believe this is all a shadowy propaganda play, being facilitated by Western media. If you watch international news, Trump is getting absolutely BAKED anywhere that isn't the United States because this is an unwinnable war of choice started for extremely stupid reasons

But he needs to save face, so he pretends he's negotiating. Nobody is negotiating

Armed conflict is not a sports game.

You don’t need to pick a side.

You can also oppose one government without supporting the government that declares war on said government.

You can also, and I know this is a big stretch, oppose a third government in the conflict!

You can declare solidarity with all the people in the region who aren’t murdering thieving assholes.

You can call for mitigating a bad situation without that being a declaration of support for the whole mess.

Want to help people in Gaza suffering through a genocide perpetrated by Israel and supported by many of our own governments?

Here’s a list of everyone we’ve verified using video calls with links to their fundraisers, ranked by how much they managed to raise in the last week:

PS. They’re all on the fediverse (see https://gaza-verified.org/people/) so maybe also give some of them a follow? If you can’t help financially, a few words of kindness also go a long way (and who knows, you might just make a wonderful new friend. I know that I’ve made quite a few.)

ICE Agents Deployed To U.S. Airports As TSA Agents Continue To Quit, Delays Reach New Lengths

Instead of finding ways to get TSA workers paid amid the ongoing partial government shutdown, Trump shipped ICE agents to airports to assist.
