These organizations, along with Trump's Project 2025, plan to slash education funding, “would have devastating impacts on small towns & their residents (and) runs counter to the rural notion of helping out our neighbors—regardless of what they look like or who they are.” — @oftunion President @mcropper_union
The campaign in a statement on Trump’s comments: “If Trump returns to office, he will undermine our security, turn his back on our allies and have America go it alone, strengthen our adversaries, and disrespect the title of commander-in-chief.”

This is a tad overblown. Twitter is not a game changer in Brazil or a business to speak of. And we’ll get another satellite provider if he goes full Bond villian.
Reminder: #DougFord and his #Ontario Place tsarina have given Oleg Deripaska, the sanctioned Russian oligarch who worked with Paul Manafort to install Trump in 2016, over a billion dollars to pretend to build public transportation in #Toronto.

This was a fun exercise, but I'm also hoping to help address any lack of tools that might keep organizations from joining the fediverse.
Hence using donation tracking as an example.

This is an under-appreciated point about using LLMs to summarize text (turning a longer text into a shorter text that maintains the essence of the original). Making summaries is hard to do well! It requires understanding and subtlety.
Making a BAD summary is an easy task for an LLM, which flattens everything probabilistically. People using these cheap tools are going to be throwing a lot of babies out with a lot of bathwater and never even knowing it. infosec.exchange/@david_chisna…

The U.S. presidential election is taking place in about seven states. If you’re in one of those states, you know that. Otherwise you may not realize: The presidential election is taking place elsewhere and you’re not relevant.
How can ANYONE still like our absurd Electoral College system? It keeps choosing the losing candidate. It disenfranchises most of the country. It’s a farce.
This is a way forward, if only more people understood it: nationalpopularvote.com/writte…

CHEAP TRICK
Dream Police
1979 Canada pressing
Never trust ANYBODY who says they don’t like Cheap Trick.
They are clearly not qualified to comment or be an authority on anything.
Damone: “Can you honestly tell me that you forgot. Forgot the magnetism of Robin Zander or the charisma of Rick Neilsen?"
Asshole: “That's kids stuff.”
Damone: “Kids stuff? What about the tunes? I Want You To Want Me. The Dream Police da da da da da da da da.”
