Excited to see if https://gardenstate.social can be added to this experiment.
here are some fun #GardenStateSocial facts that make us a good candidate:
- We are all about finding folks geographically close to us.
- Currently patreon raises $44 a month to cover server costs from 9 amazing members.
- Our current plan from @hosting cover up to 250 active users (currently between 50 - 75) and the cost step up to 750 is very reasonable!

People ask me #NewJersey questions all the time like "Is everyone in New Jersey a sexy genius?"
Which, of course not. Only 85% are.

"In the age of endless scrolling, #cooking videos have become a kind of visual comfort #food.
Few people understand this language better than #EitanBernath.
#Bernath has been cooking in public for more than half his life. He does not just #cook to feed people. He cooks to connect with them.
“I grew up in #Teaneck, born and raised in Teaneck, #NewJersey, and went to dual-curriculum #Jewish school my whole life,” he told The AJN over Zoom. “Half the day #Judaicstudies, half the day secular studies. And grew up in a very strong community. Obviously, as a #Jew, food is very central to our life.”
That grounding matters."

This Dumb E-Bike Law Affects Everyone
I don't agree with him on banning throttles. However, I am posting the video so that folks in New Jersey can call the governor's office to have him pocket veto this proposed law.

I always use some of the funds from the gardenstate.social patreon to hire illustrators to make art for our instance.
Anyone have good ideas of what kind of art we could commission next?

ICE Out of New Jersey - Highland Park and New Brunswick

Lol. The argument against this bill to charge nj data centers more for electricity is that they will just charge users more for their services.
But people can opt out of AI services and can't opt out of needing electricity.

"I was walking home from a #Shabbat morning service, wearing a #kippah and carrying my #tallit bag in my urbane, diverse #NewJersey town, when a pickup truck slowed down beside me. The driver rolled down his window and yelled something. I won’t repeat it here, but I can say with certainty it was not “ #ShabbatShalom.”
Why? Because of a small piece of fabric on my large, bald head.
My truck-driving antagonist was in good company. On social media, bigots will refer to #Jews as “the little hat people.”
"...During the 1968 #NewYorkCity school teachers’ strike, which aroused #antisemitism, an announcer on radio station WBAI-FM read a poem written by a school child, dedicated to #AlbertShanker, the Jewish head of the teachers’ union: “Hey, #Jew boy, with that #yarmulke on your head/You pale-faced Jew-boy, I wish you were dead.” Shanker, in fact, did not wear a yarmulke."
