All House seats and about 1/3 of the Senate seats are up for election each midterm cycle. Even if the midterms were delayed, all those seats expire regardless.

Yeah that all sounds right to me. Except from the story they say that it won’t affect their credit score, which seems incorrect. If the company sells your debt to a collector, that gets reported to the credit agencies and is a big negative mark for you. Then later if you pay off the debt collector, that doesn’t fix the original negative mark.

In Apollo, you could just swipe from the right side of the screen to go back to where you were (this also works between a Post and the feed as well). It was a great feature I used every day. It doesn’t seem to work on Voyager though. Definitely miss that feature.

Amazon just did more layoffs today.

Exactly. For a lot of people, the end of the day is your time. The beginning of the day is just getting ready and going to work. It serves the interest of the corporate employers to put more daylight (so to speak) at the start of the workday rather than letting us have that daylight for ourselves after work. It’s daylight theft!

Mullvad or Proton are both easy recommendations

I’m trying to understand who (and where) to donate to here.

The blog post talks about various costs for the Worlds communities - the highest of which is server costs, and one line item is for “Monthly contribution to the FHF”. Then below, the donation links say “As a reminder, you can donate to FHF here”. So are those links for donating only to FHF? The Patreon link goes to “Mastodon.world (Fedihosting Foundation)”.

Some clarity here would be helpful so it’s easy for folks to understand who needs donations and where they can help with that.

Perhaps so, but it should be up to a medical professional (doctor) whether or not those treatments are appropriate for the patient. Not for-profit companies run by sociopathic executives.

Agreed. By their logic, it would be illegal to write on a newspaper or cut parts out of it because that’s not how the copywrite holder intended it lol
