'Fair Share' outpaces other revenues
The Fair Share surtax is a 4% tax on annual income above $1 million in Massachusetts,
which was approved by voters in 2022
The funds are dedicated to public education and transportation.
As of 2026, it has generated over $2.3 billion for these purposes.
The new forecast from the Executive Office of Administration and Finance anticipates that the Commonwealth will collect a total of $44.9 billion in revenue this year,…

Several years ago, a street medic described a system like this and wanted to know if it could be built.
https://hackaday.com/2022/09/08/the-tak-ecosystem-military-coordination-goes-open-source/
Back then there was just no way to make it happen. Hardware was too expensive. We couldn't really ever get it cheap enough, per medic, to deploy. Best I could put together was a bunch of burner phones.
But now it's starting to really make sense. LoRa is cheap, and possibly cheaper in bulk. And it wouldn't be necessary to build everything since ATAK-CIV exists and has several open source implementations. It can even tie in to drones (which are illegal to bring to protests in at least a few states).
This has a lot of potential applications for street medic coordination, protest marshal coordination, and for airsoft teams...

Afronding winddeel actie
Begin 2022 was ik kandidaat-raadslid voor GroenLinks en heb ik het initiatief genomen om samen met een aantal andere kandidaat-raadsleden meerdere winddelen bij De Windcentrale aan te schaffen. De opbrengst van de winddelen was bedoeld voor de Energiebank Schiedam. Zij zijn inmiddels gestopt, waardoor ik voor de opbrengst van 2023 grotendeels aan een vergelijkbaar doel geschonken. Want de afspraak met…

Sept ans ont passé depuis ce post.
Et pourtant, la justice n’a toujours pas terminé son travail.
En Belgique, le jugement définitif est tombé en 2022. Mais en 2025, certaines indemnisations sont encore bloquées. Des victimes attendent toujours que leur souffrance soit reconnue dans les faits, pas seulement dans les mots.
En France, l’affaire OKC/Spatz a été relancée en 2017, réouverte officiellement en 2021. Et aujourd’hui ? Toujours aucune mis…

Good Morning #Canada
My morning routine includes #CBCRadio with my coffee and this morning they had an interesting segment on Canadian youth returning to church. According #StatsCan 2022 data, 22% of Canadians ages 15-24 attended religious services at least once a month. That's a significant increase compared to ages 25 to 64. Angus Reid found that positive views of religion by #GenZ adults grew from 35 to 40% between 2023 to 2025, while views from every other generation significantly decreased.
This led me to read several news articles from late last year that reported on these studies, one of which is linked below. It appears the trend became noticeable during and after COVID lockdowns. The words of multiple interviewees tells me that young people's were looking for community and human interaction with something grounded with a sense of morality. That's positive even if you don't believe in her holiness above.

Big thanks to @… for having me on his podcast. While I never actually went to Ottawa (though I have visited!), it has been quite a journey since landing on the Fedi in 2022.
The struggle continues to try to get our Canadian politicians to understand that *they* will drive viewers no matter what platform they're on.
Also, I am just one person. There are, thankfully, a whole bunch of people trying to accomplish the same goal!
