After Hurricane Helene, we promised ourselves that we wouldn't go through another disaster without a battery backup for our rooftop solar. Thanks to the folks at Footprint Project, we're on track to install 20kWh of battery capacity for our building this month!
So now want to pay it forward. On Thursday, October 9th, we'll be donating net proceeds from all sales in-store and online to the Feral Crust Infoshop in Davao, Philippines. This longstanding eco-anarchist project is a living experiment based on principles of mutual aid, cooperation and ecology. So buy a book (or two) and the donated sale will help to fund upgrades to Feral Crust's off-grid electrical infrastructure and rainwater harvesting systems!

Short version: we need to create our own informational infrastructure for collective management of information and decisionmaking.
A lot of people won't get it, and will insist on seeing everything in partisan terms. While that's not ideal, I think there will be enough people who do care about truth, justice, and What The American Way Really Should Be, Dammit, that we will be able to start collectively pushing things towards a more Star Trek future (aka the exact opposite of what's happening now).
It's already happening to a large extent, with groups like Indivisible, but they're mainly held together by a sense of emergency; we need a self-governance system that's easy to participate in and resists attempts at control.
(Let me know which of these pieces, if any, I should elaborate in more detail.)
@woozle Go ahead for the full info dump. I'm all ears (er eyes).
Life is about to take my attention, but it'll be here for me to scroll when I can dedicate attention.

I think Mastodon's proposal for starter packs is a significant positive evolution of the way Bluesky rolled them out. I wound up on a bunch of packs there and it was…not a great thing for my specific brain and purpose.
I do hope the people in Masto's comments saying they must allow opt-out and removal will read the actual post, which features both blanket opt-out and individual removal.

@tchambers maybe what we should do is a 3 or 4 regional #Fediforum and a global one as well.
