LEAVE NO TRACE?
Nice article in the Alpkit advertising mag (I love this company).
I'll quote a paragraph, from Alastair Humphreys, but the whole is in the photograph.
"There's an irony in the phrase 'Leave No Trace'. Of course, we should tread lightly - packing out our rubbish, respecting wildlife, and not tramping wildflowers. But what if, instead of leaving no trace, we made more effort to leave a positive trace? A smile to a stranger. A cleaned-up fire pit. A friendly conversation with a farmer. Instead of sneaking through the land as if we don't belong what if we walked through it as caretakers?

@lukesblog1 @cubicdoor Luke, As an author myself I thought your post referencing the 🐦 bird site was out of place. Why? Many Mastodon users have fled from that site. You are on Mastodon where there is #noadvertising. I suggest you use a CW and tread lightly. #Book giveaways are commercial ads and promotional. Be respectful of the culture here and some of us will want to read your words.

(Boost this post, or I'm going to haunt you after I'm dead. 👻)
Dear #fediverse, do your magic!
I learned today that I'm no longer on the secondary insurance that I was on with my ex-wife. (The government goes as fast as molasses.)
So I have a few choices:
* Remain on plain Medicare.
* Get Medicare Advantage, which I've heard multiple sources poopoo.
* Get Medigap. (I think I don't need to be on Medicare Advantage.)
I'm wondering what folk's experience has been making the choice I'm going to make.
I have to see multiple specialists periodically: oncologist, ophthalmologist, cardiologist, gastroenterologist, etc.
Do note that I plan to listen to your opinion, but I may decide on a plan that does not make sense to you. It is just that my particulars may not match yours. (For instance, the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society pays my insurance premiums. It is not without limit, but it may make sense for me to have higher premiums if I can save elsewhere.)
Thanks.
(Oh, if you are an insurance company, tread lightly. I don't like people pushing products in my face. I'm not saying you *cannot* talk, just don't be an ass about it.)

CW: UK politics, Labour, transphobia
Not a great week so far for trans people in the UK
On Monday, shadow minister for women and equalities Anneliese Dodds MP used an opinion column in the Guardian to announce Labour’s new stance on gender recognition reform, hugely weakened from the kind of reform they supported in Scotland last year: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/jul/24/labour-will-lead-on-reform-of-transgender-rights-and-we-wont-take-lectures-from-the-divisive-tories
Indeed, Dodds had the gall to say that the Scottish Government’s reform bill – which was supported by most Labour MSPs and would have become law had Westminster not blocked it – was ‘cavalier’ and ‘more about picking a fight with Westminster than bringing about meaningful change’! Seriously?!
On Tuesday, ‘gender-critical’ ‘feminist’ Rosie Duffield MP unsurprisingly lent support to the new proposals, which she says are ‘going in the right direction’ for ‘biological women’: https://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2023/jul/25/michael-gove-petrol-cars-mps-rishi-sunak-climate-policy-uk-politics-live-latest-updates?page=with:block-64bf95328f081d44d14a89f7#block-64bf95328f081d44d14a89f7
And today (Wednesday), leader of the opposition Keir Starmer MP said:
‘Firstly, a woman is an adult female, so let’s clear that one up …
[You mean, adult female *human being*, or are female butterflies also women?]
‘We don’t think that self-identification is the right way forward. We’ve reflected on what happened in Scotland …
[Rather, what happened *to* Scotland, when the UK government blocked competent legislation without warning]
‘We’ve set out that we want to modernise the process, get rid of some of the indignities in the process, keep it a medical process.
[*Some* of the indignities. Nice /s]
‘We’ve always said, I’ve continued to say, and Sunday, when we completed our policy forum, allowed us to be clear that there should be safe places, safe spaces, for women, particularly in relation to violence against women and girls.’
[So what?]
Starmer lacks the positive values and qualities of his predecessor
On trans rights as on so many other issues, he’d rather tread lightly for fear of actually being seen to *oppose* the Tory government’s horrific agenda

I'm seeing an awful lot of Threads sourced nuggets espousing the virtues of, along with optimism surrounding, the #Fediverse lately.
This seems a bit sus to me, like a concerted outreach effort on the part of Meta/Faceplant and a few other largish, commercial actors to popularize their ulterior motives of domination by... Ahem, normalizing the concepts of #DeSoc and more specifically, the ActivityPub powered spaces in the Fediverse.
I actually dunno who MDBHD or John Oliver are, but I'm certain that they're no Oprah, although it would be nice if she would weigh in on the critical mass achieved to date in the adoption of Fediverse technologies that are #FOSS based, and #Privacy respecting.
To date, *Privacy has been of primary consideration and motivation in the development community surrounding the #ActivityPub powered platforms in the Fediverse, but the questionable players entering from the horizontally scaling decentralized social networking industry have, as of late, been overwhelmingly of the deprecated, privacy disrespecting, monolithic silo persuasion. These monolithic-ally inclined companies hailing from vertically thinking companies are an expected, yet suspect group of *privacy mining experts, sophomorically
(sic)wading into the deep end of a demographic consisting mostly of privacy minded* individuals and notable developers of the FOSS based portions of the software world.<tangent>These industrial surveillance engines are already back on their heels as they venture into what many warn as an #EEE incursion - but truth be told, already too late to the game to subjugate, assimilate us: #Diaspora #ZOT #nostr #Nomad #Matrix #TOR #Yggdrasil #I2P #IPFS / #IPNS and others, including blockchain based so-called #Web3 solutions with baked in privacy considerations at the protocol layer are being *Bridged to interoperate with each other and ActivityPub in the Fediverse at rates which the purveyors of industrial surveillance machinery must invariably only describe as "alarming rates" - that's good news for the average schmoes of the world like you and I.</tangent>So why are we, just in the past few weeks, seeing so much attention given to the Fediverse by these #juggernauts, perhaps #dreadnoughts, that for so long have exhibited such great restraint and avoidance of the mere utterance of Fediverse, ActivityPub, or even alluding to the notions of Decentralization? There's certainly a particular spin in their delivery, leveraging third parties that obfuscate their participation in the dissemination of their, Great News.
Speaking of Dreadnoughts, just how was it that the great Bismarck was taken out? Remember? The outgunned and outmatched Royal Navy took out her port rudder! ⛵ 💥
It was the end of an era. A rudder post. The Bismarck was doomed to circle her watery grave.
But I digress...
Make no mistake, obscuring the lines between the privacy respecting FOSS based camps that have historically steered the direction of DeSoc has taken, and the deprecated, proprietary silo companies which have based their entire existence upon advertising and industrial surveillance models that I refer to as The Sunnyvale Syndrome family of data mining engines, is now seeping through the cracks of a clear delineation between these two prinicples - that of uncompromising privacy and open source development and that of proprietary, closed source subjugation methodologies leveraging **YOU as the product in inventory*.
Feel free to boost and share your comments at length here. A million people other than myself are here in the Fediverse and are really interested in just what kind of impact the introduction of these traditionally privacy raiding Industrialists will have upon their... scratch that, our future online safety.
tl;dr: Your very private, personal medical history and data (and that of your minor children, in violation of FERPA regulations) is being wholesaled and auctioned off by the so-called "Big-Tech" entrants and hopefuls that are at this very time knocking on the front door of the ActivityPub portions of Fediverse... Tread lightly, and consider how your every move going forward affects the unwitting consent to farm and sell your most confidential personal information.
it is up to you - it is your choice to affirm or deny - whether industrial surveillance is your birthright to embrace or your nemesis to destroy... You, We, have that power to decide.
