Mastedon, Pixelfed, Bluesky - Feels like 2008 when we were all trying to find the micro blog that would take over from all the others...we fought and fought to gain traction and when we finally got it the corporations became corrupt and criminal...what platforms might win? Or is the lesson that maybe we don't need these platforms?
Here’s a new poem called ā€˜To Be Pacific’.

While its likely too early to draw conclusions about how the far right rioters will be dealt with (with only a small minority sentenced so far), the Equality Trust *do* sum up an emerging concern expressed here (and elsewhere).

Am expected in Barcelona for an event in November. Excited to be there and see the team.

But, ... getting there from London?

Around £100 for a round-trip flight

Around £400 for a round trip train ticket

Ouch!

Any suggestions? I've not explore the world of railcards yet

You're taking away my FREEDOM!

If you plan to do the same, let me know ... and feel free to share the idea more widely to help others in the fight to reclaim our inboxes from virtual overload ;)

It is almost that time of year where I have to declare "email bankruptcy"

My personal email has 2400+ unread emails (in Primary) and countless others in secondary mailboxes.

The only sensible way to deal with it is to declare #emailbankruptcy and mark them all as read and remove them from the inbox, and start again in January.

Does anyone else do this to preserve their sanity?

Very good - but not wholly safe for work ...

... so PLAY IT LOUD!!!!! šŸ˜

OK, this is pretty cool and I didn't realise it was even a thing

Giving our railways a new lease of life as faster transport options (to remove flying) would be pretty cool
