I'm Arnold Schrijver (he/him). Social coder. #FOSS, #HumaneTech and #SocialWeb advocate.

I help foster #Solutions that improve #Wellbeing, #Freedom and #Society

Let's #ReimagineSocial and envision a #Peopleverse where archipelagos, built by the #Commons, unfold the #HumanWeb. Delightful Realms of Creation, where only our dreams may hold us back.

The future of history: Second Interbellum? :blobhyperthink: hope not.

> Yet the whole thing was simply painful to watch, mostly because it was useless on any practical level. This much ballyhooed confrontation between two political foes for the most important office in the world turned out to be featherlight on substance, policy, interest, intellect, imagination, vision, energy, ideas, humor and hope. It was heavy on one thing (besides cringe), though: ego.

Not long ago, this street in Valencia was—say it with me—“choked full of cars.” Now it’s…anyone? Anyone…? “Pedestrianized.” It’s pedestrianized.

Exactas street except now it’s pedestrianized and full of people. Photo taken by me yesterday.

Is it manipulated? Or is one a lo-res snapshot from Google Maps, and the other a real photograph?

Im Westen nichts Neues as the Israeli guns brutally shred more civilian flesh.

Meanwhile the Dutch are relieved that the horrible cold spring days are coming to an end, with summer temperatures predicted from Sunday.

Hatred in all its forms has no space in our societies.

We will do whatever it takes to counter it.

On the International Day for Countering Hate Speech, let’s team up to say online.

In December, we adopted a Communication which calls for a citizen-led discussion on ways to move from hatred and division.

You can also take part in that debate here → https://europa.eu/!BWc4Pq

@EUCommission

Maybe one day will take a similar step to these German organisations at https://byebyeelon.de and no longer support the hate platform with their presence. Say ..

@smallcircles I added Fedi Foundation to the list of related initiatives. I marked it as collective, as I found no sign of it being a registered organization. If I should change that or anything else, just let me know.

@owta @secondtruth

Thank you!

Yes, collective is probably accurate enough. The e-zine is part of Social Coding movement. Which is called a "movement" as its a loose do-ocracy, not an intentional community.
