🚨 Necesitamos vuestra ayuda 🚨 Dentro hilo!

Este mes nos hemos encontrado con una situación inesperada en #FediverseTV que pone en riesgo la continuidad del proyecto. No es algo habitual ni previsto, y nos obliga a pediros apoyo directamente para poder seguir adelante.

Forget trad wives, the new influencer trend should be #NerdWives.

"Hey honey, I turned our old computer into a server so I could set up a #fediverse instance for our child and her friends."

"Hey all, today I am showing you #NextCloud as an alternative to #Dropbox and #GoogleDrive."

"Get ready with me! Today I am showing you how I check in with my friends with off-grid mesh radio first thing in the morning."

How awesome would this be? I mean, finally a trend where people LEARN SOMETHING and are more empowered as a result.

(Forever grateful to my Fedi friends for all the inspiration and encouragement in trying new tools) ❤️​

#cannabis

Some people say that recreational drug use is depoliticizing, and depoliticized is what our rulers want us to be. This is a bogus analysis.

To generalize about drugs is a mistake. Every drug is different. Each has different effects. In many cases the difference is profound. Each person experiences those effects in their own way. Some are dramatically depoliticizing, others not so much, others still are quite the opposite. I know more about cannabis than I do about most drugs, so I'm going to talk about that.

I've consumed cannabis products most days of the week for my entire adult life. Not only did it not deradicalize me but, like many people, I found the laws about it to be themselves radicalizing. Cannabis brings together people of different cultures who wouldn't otherwise meet each other or imagine that they had anything in common. It's a unifying force. I find it very encouraging that Snoop Dog and Willie Nelson unite in public to campaign against cannabis prohibition. It's a good sign. Anyone anywhere, campaigning in any way possible, against any prohibition whatsoever that was imposed by the state, is a good thing. Cross cultural intersectionality is a force multiplier. All prohibitions are variations on the same theme. The War On (some) Drugs, abortion, vaccines, porn, transrights, consent, and sexwork are all the same issue: Who owns your body, you or the state?

The public's attitude about cannabis is evolving. The propaganda is wearing off. It's been a gradual process. As with all such processes, it is best understood if we look at its history. So I want to share a story with you about something that happened one long hot summer long ago. In the late 60s I lived in NYC's Lower East Side. It was built to be a slum. It stayed that way for a very long time. Originally it was a Jewish majority neighborhood. By the time I got there most Jews had moved uptown, to the outer boroughs, or to Long Island. The neighborhood was mostly hippies and Puerto Ricans, except for 6th Street between 1st Avenue and Avenue A, which was overwhelmingly Ukrainian and very right-wing.

I was a member of an anarchist group of sorts that was based in the Lower East Side. We called ourselves New York Provo, after the Dutch Provos whose chutzpah and ingenuity we greatly admired. We were best seen as a sort of politicized street gang. One guy in the group was a political theoretician named Dana Beal. He later went on to become the brains behind Yippie! Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin were front men, but Dana was the brains.

Dana was the closest thing New York Provo had for a leader. Our meetings were pretty much horizontal. Dana's main role was being our best weed connection. We sold weed to finance our activities. Our main enemy, the US intelligence apparatus was selling heroin and cocaine to finance theirs. We considered ourselves their moral superiors. We were very much opposed to heroin and cocaine. We called them "death drugs" and preached against them. At one point we distributed for free a very limited supply of Ibogaine, an herbal treatment for heroin addiction. We sold weed for money. Then one day, we gave it away for free. This is the story of what happened on that day.

The money we made selling weed we used to pay rent on our office on Avenue A, across from Tompkins Square and on our free store on 1st St, between 1st and 2nd Avenue. We also gave away food and published a daily broadside about stuff happening in the neighborhood.

The back door of the free store led to a tiny yard and chainlink fence. There was a hole in the fence. Directly across East Houston St was Yonah Schimmel's Knish Bakery. We were walking distance from Katz's Delicatessen. Most Jewish residents had moved out of the neighborhood but some businesses remained. A decent nosh was never hard to find.

On November 14, 1967, the Secretary of State Dean Rusk was scheduled to speak in midtown Manhattan. NY Provo staged the first of what came to be called "breakaway marches" in protest. As we had planned, it turned violent immediately.

One night, three weeks later, the cops raided our free store and busted 31 people including many NY Provos and some people just "shopping" for clothes. Dana ran out the back door, dove through the hole in the fence, and escaped down Eldridge St. The first cop to chase him was too fat to fit through the hole and got stuck. He had to be extricated by other cops. This became a local legend.

Earlier that year, Abbie Hoffman had showed up in town and opened his own free store on 10th St. Abbie was always expropriating other people's ideas and labor. He even stole the manuscript for his famous *Steal This Book* from Emmett Grogan. Then he stole the free store idea from us. We didn't hold this against Abbie. We had in fact been discussing plans for "two, three, many" free stores. I personally printed on our Gestetner Abbie's first leaflet in NYC advertising it. The Gestetner was located in our office across from Tompkins Square. At first I had no idea how a Gestetner, or any mimeograph worked. But I did have the manual. With the right tools and manual, anyone can fix anything, as long as they follow directions.

Provos hung out in Tompkins Square. The whole neighborhood did. One day a fight broke out in the park between some Puerto Ricans and some hippies. It wasn't about their ethnicity. It was personal, between individuals. NY Provos knew some of these guys personally. We had a little talk about it with some of them. Eventually all agreed it that was not worth destroying the vibes in the neighborhood over a petty personality clash. We decided to nip this thing in the bud before it had a chance to get out of hand and spoil the summer for all of us.

NY Provo was part Anglo and part Latin. We were all young. It was a unifying factor. Even though I wasn't Latino, I wasn't a hippie, either. To this very day not all white potheads are hippies. I was more of a greaser. I wore a white T-shirt with a pack of Marlboros rolled up in my left sleeve. I combed my hair like James Dean. My fingernails were usually dirty from wrenching on motors and maintaining the ancient Gestetner. A hippie I wasn't. But I did smoke pot and I do like Latin music.

This made me an ideal cross cultural liaison between communities. Everybody in the neighborhood liked me except the 6th Street Ukrainians. They were very conservative and saw me as some kind of commie. I tried to explain the difference, but they didn't want to hear it.

FWIW, there's an excellent book on the role of politically active greasers in Chicago that you should really check out. It's called *Hillbilly Nationalists, Urban Race Rebels, and Black Power: Community Organizing in Radical Times*, by Amy Sonnie, James Tracy, with a foreword by Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz.

https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/11036817-hillbilly-nationalists-urban-race-rebels-and-black-power

I met a couple of the people in this book when they came to New York to scope out the scene, and later when they came to New Haven to help occupy Yale Law School to protest the railroading of Bobbie Seale. They were good people.

NY Provo brainstormed ways to stitch the Tompkins Square denizen communities back together. Ethnic conflict was the very last thing the neighborhood needed. We finally concluded that since two things that both groups liked was music and marijuana, we would throw a pot party in the park. We rented the bandshell ($15 for the afternoon) and recruited six local bands, three Latin and three rock.

The night before a few Provos got high on acid, stayed up all night, and rolled up a pound and a half of joints. We stuffed them into a couple conga drums. One of the more Latin looking Provos had dressed up in the latest Puerto Rican fashion. He strolled into the park with the drums. There were cops all around but they didn't think twice about it, or really even notice. Puerto Ricans often played drums in the park. It was normal.

His name was Carlos Ramirez. Everybody called him "Puerto Rican Charlie". It was his preferred moniker.

Dana had heard about him through neighborhood gossip and sent me to recruit him.

"Charlie?" I asked when we met.

"Puerto Rican Charlie," he answered, and stuck a joint in my mouth. We agreed that there were a lot of Charlies in New York, but he was unique. We hit it off immediately. He was a fluently bilingual and totally bicultural Manhattan native. At 18 he had joined the army. He'd been promised an education. Instead he spent four years guarding an airbase in Germany. As he was being discharged he was approached by a recruiting officer who told him he'd been scammed by a crooked recruiting officer who had since been thrown out of the army. If Charlie would just "sign here" the second recruiting officer promised him a real education this time. Instead he was sent back to Germany to guard a different airbase for four years. By then he hated the government with a deep and abiding passion. He began reading about alternatives. He didn't find Marxism appealing because it entailed what they called "party discipline," which amounted to people telling him what to do. Charlie hated being told what to do. The army had taught him that. When he learned about anarchism he'd found his political home.

At 31 that year, Charlie was the oldest Provo. He usually dressed like a beatnik, with a beret, sunglasses, a sweatshirt, goatee, and sneakers. For this caper he dressed totally Latin and totally blend in stylish. I followed him into the crowd. When we were surrounded and out of sight of the cops, I reached into the drum on his shoulder, pulled out two sacks of joints, and we handed them out. It was a very popular move. It was also the first smoke-in we'd ever even heard of. A splendid time was had by all. There was no more neighborhood in-fighting in the park that summer. There was a bit of a dust up with the cops a month later but that's a quite different sort of event, and a story for another day.

If the #fediverse (or the #atmosphere, same problem) were a startup and I had any say in it, I would make a list of all things that make it hard for it to have larger impact on the world than it currently has, and insist that we systematically work them down.

Because I don't think we are.

Of course, it's not a startup and should not be. It needs to be many projects, none of them dominant, otherwise we'd end up right where we wanted to get away from: centralized social overlords.

Oh boy, just opened Sharkey & I see a lot of the Markdown I tried in my Glitch post doesn't work when shown there.

• Single hash creates bold text in square brackets not even on its own line.
• Double hashes, triple hashes, underlined with three equal signs, underlined with three dashes: all look the same, just bold text.
• Three dashes with no text above doesn't create a horizontal rule, just a line break?
• Lists: nothing is rendered as a list with bullets or numbers, neither separate nor combo: nada, zilch.
• Double grave accents above & below didn't make a code block.
• Underscores did nothing.

What did render:

• hyperlink formatting
• italic, bold, strikethrough, inline code

Social media is effecting my mental health.

I go on Reddit, I see fake statistics like "Israelis have killed 600,000 Gazans" (vs Hamas themselves who claim the number is ~65,000), or outrage articles on Jewish takeovers of schools and neighborhoods.

I go to Youtube and I'm presented with "Evidence that Zionists steal food from other cultures"

I go on the Fediverse and... well you know...

Apparently mastodon.social is undergoing a massive #DDoS that brought it down, which may or may not be related to the disservice experienced by #BlueSky last week. Of course, this being the #Fediverse, the only measurable effect for the majority of Fedizens will be some reduction of traffic on their timelines, depending on which fraction of their followings are on that instance.

And this is why #ActivityPub, with all its deficiencies, is still better than #ATProto.

Die CEO's A. Karp und N. Zamiska von #palantir haben eine Zusammenfassung ihres Buchs gepostet, das an Deutlichkeit nichts zu wünschen übrig lässt: so sei die Entmachtung Deutschlands und Japans am Ende des 2. Weltkriegs ein Fehler gewesen.

In einem haben sie offenkundig recht: es ist nicht egal, welche Software man benutzt, weil hinter der Konstruktion eine politische Auffassung von Kommunikation und Gesellschaft steht, der damit zur Durchsetzung verholfen wird.

Dear #Fediverse / #Mastodon,

Looking for an app or service that will allow me to create a #music playlist and #stream it live via link. Basically like hosting a radio show. Would love it if it’s open source, and even better if it’s part of #ActivityPub.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Bonus points if there’s an #iOS app for it.

Late #Caturday post.

I was walking my two dogs today when a white cat fell from a 6-story building, landing on the pavement just a meter away from me. She miraculously landed on her paws but was completely terrified. People just kept walking by. Within five minutes, I realized I was the only one left who could help her. I've become the only who knew what happened.

Spontaneous interaction with strangers is usually a huge struggle for me. But leaving a shocked animal near traffic with a heavy thunderstorm approaching just wasn't an option.

The urgency of the situation somehow bypassed my anxiety. I just had to swallow my panic and do something.
I looked up at the building and noticed only one open window on the top floor. I assumed that's where she fell from.

The intercom was broken, and I wasn't even sure I was buzzing the right apartment. I honestly had no idea what I was going to say. With no other options, I stood there with my dogs, guarding the cat, and kept staring at that open window hoping someone would look out.

Eventually, a man did. I waved and asked if he was missing a white cat. He looked confused - as far as I know cats are quiet, and probably he hadn't even noticed she was gone. But when I told him she was hiding right around the corner, he rushed downstairs.

From the fall to the reunion, the whole thing took about 15 minutes. I am strictly a dog person with almost zero cat experience, but I know I wouldn't be able to sleep tonight if I had just walked away knowing I could have helped.

I really hope the brave little survivor is okay now. Photo attached.

@jasongorman

I did a bit of light digging out of personal curiosity;

mastodon.cloud ownership trail:

Originally run by a Japanese operator who announced shutdown in May 2020 over anticipated defamation law compliance burdens. Both mastodon.cloud (~59k users) and mstdn.jp (~200k users) were transferred on July 1 2020 to Sujitech LLC (USA), a two-person company led by Suji Yan; UIUC dropout, founder of Mask Network (Web3/crypto decentralised social protocol).

Suji Yan's own mastodon.cloud profile: 10 posts. 58 followers. That's your active admin (!)

Corporate structure is layered: Sujitech sits under Dimension.im, Yan is also Chairman of "The Social Coop Limited" (unrelated to social.coop), Mask Network's venture arm Bonfire Union claims $100M across 120 projects. In late 2022 they also acquired Pawoo.net. In Nov 2023 Sujitech donated $100K to Mastodon; reportedly the largest single donation, which buys a lot of legitimacy narrative while the instances they actually run go unmoderated.

As early as late 2020, observers noted the team was too busy with Mask Network to allocate real resources to mstdn.jp or mastodon.cloud. The Feb 2024 spam wave exposed just how many large instances with open registrations were effectively abandoned, mastodon.cloud fits this pattern precisely.

The play: maintain big-name legacy instances as credibility tokens ("we operate major Mastodon infrastructure!") while chasing Lens protocol stewardship and Web3 deals. Instance governance is a line item in a pitch deck, not an operational commitment.

An interesting chapter in #fediverse #web3 history

ZOMG! #E2EE news on the Fediverse keeps getting better

The @HolosSocial team is planning to implement the same encryption standard as Mastodon, Bonfire, and Emissary.

When it lands, truly private messages should interoperate between all four platforms. This is an _absolute_win_ for open platforms and open APIs.

Holos will update its E2EE model to align with the shared spec, shipped well before 2027 and landing in the Fediverse first. Mastodon will likely make its own choices later on, and Holos will adapt again to stay compatible. No problem.

So, some time next year, you’ll be able to send truly private messages to the vast majority of the #Fediverse

Im so excited about this.

Because it’s an open spec, this opens the doors for every Fediverse app to join the party.

Yesterday, this project was a proof of concept. Today, Mastodon has turned it into a stampede.

Hello #Mastodon! Brief Ecology is finally on the #fediverse, which means it's time for an #Introduction

We're a small publisher of ecology-related #news, essays, and #fiction. We publish two monthly periodicals: The Eco Update and The Rotting Leaf.

Lastly, we are proudly anticapitalist. We don't shy away from #politics and regularly publish pieces on #ecosocialism, #degrowth, #socialecology, #anarchism, and other places where ecology and politics intersect.

Being an early adopter to @dansup‘s @loops myself, I am extremely happy to hear this!

It’s very well deserved!

Please feel invited to also follow me on #loops via @Awet where I post content early (and sometimes exclusively).
