  1. What a time to be alive!

    Remember the good ol' days when things like #Livejournal, etc. were the place to be? No? Meh.

    #Lyvio is chronological, and an algorithm doesn’t dictate what you see.

    There are also no ads.

    How long until the app is bought by some company with other ideas?

  2. Excellent comms strategy by #Burnham and team. Populist policies that put a few pounds in working people's pockets each day.

    - 5% off electricity
    - £2 bus fares
    - cheaper pubs, clubs and music venues

    Well done! #PeopleBeforeProfits

  3. Canberra’s fossil fuel overlords are shaking in their boots thanks to David Pocock calling out Labor’s spineless dodge on a 25% gas windfall tax – because apparently taxing Gina Rinehart’s mates more than our beer is promoting grievance! Betoota nails it: with a 94-seat supermajority, Albo’s crew is too captured by lobbyists to grab $60B in wartime profits that could fix wages, healthcare, and the cost-of-living hell for everyday Aussies. Time to tax the gas barons properly and fund the future.

  4. RE: mastodon.social/@LibertyOverGo

    Following the massive farmers’ protest outside EU headquarters, farmers dumped potatoes onto the streets and invited people to collect them.
    Instead of waste, they chose solidarity — handing out free food to the public. 🚜

  12. What's wrong with Capitalism in one example. 👇

    A major #FossilFuel company (BP) makes some small effort to reduce fossil fuel and shift to renewables - while also lowering grotesque profit levels during a cost of living crisis

    ...yet it is punished heavily by the market and faces a hostile takeover.

    BP is doing what the world needs (at least somewhat), but the profit motive ignores all that.

  13. The individual actions we make for the planet every day matters, but let’s not forget that in order to tackle global inequality and solve the multiple crises we must demand systemic change.

    By asking governments to #TaxTheSuperRich we can act for a green and fair future with the speed and scale required!

  14. 2024 created 204 new billionaires, with overall billionaire wealth surging by US$2 trillion (a speed of ±US$5.7 bn a day) and their global power soaring out of control.

    So very this 👆👆👆

    We're so brainwashed to think that anything good for business is good for the country

    But anything that raises worker's wages is "inflationary" and bad.
    #PeopleBeforeProfits

  18. @KimSJ @ChrisMayLA6
    It is unforgivable that any mature economy has only a single tool (central bank interest rates) to tame inflation.

    The *first* tools should be anti-price gouging rules, trust busting actions and windfall taxes.

  19. A couple of hours ago a train derailed in Florida carrying 30,000 gallons of propane. No leakages yet.

  20. #TrueThis…
    Most food banks were started as a short-term, stopgap measure to help folks survive a period of dramatic economic collapse; they were never intended to be a core piece of our social structure. That they are is a symptom of our failure to:
    —adequately, responsibly, and fairly tax the super rich;
    —ensure minimum wages actually provide the basic necessities of life;
    —put the basic needs of all members of society ahead of corporate dividends…

  21. “There's a better way: "platform co-operativism," in which workers clone the apps - a trivial task - and then turn them into nonpredatory, worker-owned businesses that support the real economy instead of annihilating it […]

    “The biggest co-op success story is Spain's Mondragon Co-Op. They [are offering] courses in platform co-op entrepreneurship.”
