In 1933, FDR created the Civilian Conservation Corps, which went on to employ 3m workers (5% of the US male workforce!) in projects whose benefit we still feel today: road- and trail-building, tree-planting, firefighting, infrastructure maintenance and more.

Y'all remember libraries? Those are fucking cool. I miss those.
Secretly thinking this whole NYPost thing is hilarious. You know, nothing is stopping publishers/media from running their own ActivityPub-based web infra.
I can wish and hope anything I want on jonleibowitz dot social
so, how long has .social been down?

We're excited to announce the ActivityPub conf 2020 keynotes!
Opening up the conference we have a panel featuring the editors/authors of the ActivityPub panel: Jessica Tallon (@tsyesika), Amy Guy (@rhiaro), Erin Shepherd, and Evan Prodromou, with me moderating! (Hear from everyone else this time!)
Wrapping things up is Darius Kazemi (@darius) presenting "Let's Play and Win Our Own Game"!
See the whole lineup: https://conf.activitypub.rocks/talks
Update: Marqueece Harris-Dawson's Twitter account is still suspended. Yes, Twitter has suspended the account of a sitting city council member.
