The coast of Demak district, the site of the first Islamic sultanate on the island of Java, has been inundated by the sea over decades owing to groundwater extraction and development.
The erosion of human settlements is likely introducing new risks for women: “Our conclusion is that women and children, as well as poor families, including the elderly and disabled, are the most vulnerable,” a local legal aid nonprofit told Mongabay.

I don't yet know my place in it, but I'm intrigued.
Maybe giving a warm welcome for any adopted writers could be a first small step. 🙂

in reply to Elena Rossini ⁂ • • •- 'If she decided to move her newsletter to another platform she could make even more money'
My hunch says that most of this big names have separate agreements where they make more money than we think (part of the VC money would go there, for growth). With NDAs and all that.
Maybe I'm too cynical, but a lot of stuff works like that.
I loved your article though, and I'll start thinking of a writer to adopt right now!

If you're at all into cyberpunk and Hunter S. Thompson, you absolutely should read Transmetropolitan, it's amazing.

in reply to Elena Rossini ⁂ • • •If anyone feels the need to use one of the Corporate Social Media Platforms, just make sure you are always pointing people back to sources hosted on the #SocialWeb or similar.
Also put in your Bio "You can mostly find me on Mastodon here....." or similar
There are lots of reasons why people might still want/need to be on those platforms but none of them should stop us trying to build something better.
