What are the differences between piefed and lemmy? Is one financed/supported/organised by commercial companies (or people that work for them)? Are they both grassroots and independent? Do they combat algorithms? Or something else?

For the first option, if possible, having it be manually whitelisted per post/comment or user, would also be handy.

Not directly related, but I'd also like to know where and how to donate to the Lemmy devs and instances, to support the fediverse.

This guy should have his driving licence revoked.

The wealthiest 10% is not a goal. Why should it be?

The goal should be:

a decent house, a clean environment, excellent public transport, free education and healthcare, and so on.

I remind myself of the API drama and just straight up don't visit Reddit.

There are good reddit subs but I don't visit those anymore either because of the CEO being corrupt.

People taking the bus is the entire point.

It's also healthier than those people going into a car, since more people in buses means fewer cars on the road, and correspondingly, less pollution, and correspondingly - fewer roads and parking spots are needed. Which in turn frees up space to live, enjoy nature, and life.

If you want to motivate people to walk and bicycle, you will also need to foster a good public transit infrastructure: that'll enable walking and bicycling in other cities. After all, who will walk to another city? You walk to a bus stop, take it, then a train, and then you walk.

Way easier than spending precious minutes on searching a parking spot and being miserable in a traffic jam, stressing about other drivers, and so on.

Subsidised tramlines are a solution. With public transit lines being added, people will also flock to living near those.

You're aware that taxes exist, right? They can be funded through those.

Besides, it's best to stop focusing on money like it's a holy cow ... focus on community and accessibility instead: and that is where public transit shines. It makes everything accessible.

The roads can be salted.

In fact more accessible to the disabled, because they now also can use wheelchairs etc. without fear of getting ran over by cars.

Had Woodrow Wilson actually showed clemency, he would've saved him.

Fuck Woodrow Wilson.

Maybe we should use a similar playbook but inversely to defeat fascism from within.

iiiiii this is so awesommeeeee discovering your comicssss

 

Esther Ouwehand van de PvdD betoonde solidariteit en medeogen voor de Palestijnen, die en masse nu vermoord worden door Israël. Dit deed zij door kleren te dragen die toevallig de Palestijnse vormen en kleuren hadden.

Maar Bosma had daar iets op tegen, en claimde dat dit niet neutraal was, hoewel de Tweede Kamer juist de plek is om je politieke mening te betuigen.

Esther Ouwehand had enkel een Palestijnse vlag als kleren. Martin Bosma droeg een Prinsenvlag, een symbool van de NSB, die landverraders waren ten tijde van de Tweede Wereldoorlog.

Weet iemand wellicht waar de blog was van iemand die in Nederland ging wonen?

Kenmerken:

  • De blogger was een ginger
  • Hij had allemaal digitale kleurtekeningen op elke pagina, die hij denk ik zelf maakte.
  • Besprak eigen ervaringen, van Sinterklaas tot en met het leren van Nederlands

Dit deed hij op een heel boeiende en interessante wijze. Ik denk dat de site van voor 2020 was, in ieder geval.

De blog deed aan Stuff Dutch People Like denken, maar is wel persoonlijker vormgegeven en geschreven.

 

Amerikaanse fascisten pogen om Nederland te doen afbrokkelen. Dit doen zij door veel te investeren en dan te dreigen zich terug te trekken als wij niet ons als schoothondjes gaan gedragen.

Oprotten, Amerika!

 

Zijn er andere Nederlandse koffiemerken? Ik ga echt geen Douwe meer kopen, hoor...

En zo nee, Europees dan (EU/EEA muv. VK)?
