¿Hay medios digitales de (Castilla-)La Mancha en el fediverso?
Veo más noticias de Cádiz y Cantabria, que no me tocan nada que de allí.

Y sí: allí también hay internet.

"Israel's demand for all Gaza City residents to flee their homes is absolute madness, and the international community must demand that Israel immediately stop the war."

Does anyone know of a good employment lawyer in California?

Need to talk about that ride.

@molly0xfff I recommend tapping your D.C. connections for attorneys who either hate the industry in question generally, or the company, in specific. If I'd have done that around 2001, I'd be a multimillionaire, probably.

@molly0xfff my wife is an employment attorney in CA and one of our friends is a great plaintiffs employment attorney.

DM me if you want info.

@molly0xfff It depends on what case you want to argue in court. Just because they are an employment lawyer doesn't mean they will be qualified for your specific circumstances. For example, of your case is in the public interest contact a related legal aid nonprofit, perhaps the ACLU, Institute for Justice, America First Legal or other not for profit legal aid societies.

“We Hear the Voices of the #Children In #Gaza” podcast featuring Palestinian National Soccer Team member Charlotte Phillips. Some really great insights on how the targeting of Palestinian athletes is a component of #genocide, and the human cost of FIFA dragging its feet on #Israel #warcrimes investigations.

@privacyguides

Another thing we can do is support and adopt tech that can help make such laws ineffective, at the same time as addressing existing weaknesses of citizen law and pathetic enforcement. And push back on the enclosure of online spaces by corporations.

For me that's #privacy focussed #p2p tech such as #Autonomi.

@privacyguides Every time this proposal is made, it emboldens authoritarians the world over. Even the attempt of passing it is harmful to the world.

Individuals who received the $1,000/mo or $500/mo payments were more likely to find a stable, full-time job than before they received the basic income. Results also showed 45% of participants secured housing, while $589,214 was saved in public service costs.

@scottsantens I can’t stop thinking about how even an extra $500 a month could help so many people qualify to rent apartments who didn’t meet the minimum income requirement before that.

I’ve been disabled since 2012, I didn’t start getting disability income in until 2016, but once I did I was still homeless because SSDI was not 3 1/2 times any of the rent. Even when I had a part-time job that made my average income out to be many dollars more than minimum wage if my total income was averaged over a 40 hr week, I still did not have a high enough income to qualify to rent.

But SSDI, plus my part-time job, plus $500 would have been 3 1/2 times rent a one bedroom apartment. This would solve so many problems.

Here in NH if you owe child support and you have no income you are still expected to pay $50 a month (unless that went up over the past 5 years), which doesn’t really do anything for someone taking care of a kid but it’s better than nothing. At least people without a job would still be able to stay current on child support if they had $500 a month, they wouldn’t risk losing licenses they need to generate income.

@scottsantens If you're always struggling to find your next meal you've NO time to job hunt and interview and crap. If you are already homeless I have no idea what you do--I've never been in that situation. Not for real anyway. I've been without address before though and that's already a huge pita.

Has there ever been a UBI experiment that DIDN'T end with a similar result? If there is, I've never heard about it.

#Stonehenge - A day after the #JustStopOil protest, the orange powder has already been removed, leaving “no visible damage,” according to the organization that manages the site.

Meanwhile…

“No CEO of water companies who has pumped human shit into England's rivers has been arrested or faces jail time like the JustStopOil activists will for splashing harmless cornstarch on Stonehenge. You are being played by the 1%.” - John Smith (son of #HarryLeslieSmith )

Hear hear.

I would personally tear down every sacred site, church, synagogue, mosque and temple if it meant we had some chance of surviving the climate catastrophe.

They do not see nature or God’s creation as having any value other than to exploit & use as a dump.
They see man made creation as far more important— equally exploited, but more maintained and protected.
More about property & ownership than caring about the land it sits on, or the heavens observed.

Norwegian manufacturer Kongsberg Gruppen opened a new missile factory to meet increasing demand for weapons from Western countries. NATO allies are boosting their production of weapons, ammunition, and missiles to supply Ukraine and replenish own stocks.

A big win for the common sense!

All politicians and supporters of mass surveillance for the sake of "protecting children", whether they are corrupted or genuinely misguided, should realize that #ChatControl approach does not make any sense.

If personal data of families and children ever becomes available to any third parties or algorithms, it will be leaked and used by criminals to exploit and abuse children and vulnerable people.
