Yesterday the Washington Post app ran a story about the #handsoff #protests at the top of the app. Today it is hard to find any coverage. This is now buried in the "The District" section of the app and only found by searching for me.

This is a gift article. I recommend people visit the article, share the link with others... And show the WashPo that massive voter turnout deserves more than a few hours in the spotlight.

In the meantime they keep the same junk articles on the top stories for days

Let's see if their Top Stories algorithm actually works.. boost and click through.

Politicians aren’t nearly outraged enough at the Trump regime disappearing these students of color. I’m not qwhite sure why?? But I bet we’d hear a very different tune if these students had the complexion for protection.

If you’re willing to sit silent when Black & brown people are denied due process and abducted by a fascist regime, then don’t be surprised when you’re the next victim of that same regime. That’s how fascism has always advanced—through complicit silence.

7 students of color who have been disappeared by the Trump regime for daring to speak up for justice for Palestine

We can surrender to the forces of autocracy, bigotry, xenophobia, and minoritarian rule.

Or we can organize the pro-democracy majority to reclaim its power.

@mastodonmigration I really appreciate the work that fedi.tips does over at @FediFollows sending out themed lists. Maybe someday there will be a technical way to follow them all at once. Maybe I'm weird but I also rather go through the accounts one by one and decide.

@DeweyOxberger @rejzor @djlink I still liked Xen in the original. Was too young to know it was bad

@renwillis @kim_harding Yes and to be fair, drivers also sacrifice their time having to sit in the pickup and drop-off line... If only there were some way to let kids safely get to school on their own...

Oops.

GOP Senate candidate Larry Hogan touted an endorsement from in a private donor call and suggested it helps him with the former president’s “hard core” supporters, after repeatedly stating that he did not want Trump’s endorsement.”

The US is asleep: come with me on a journey about birds.

It's Bird of the Year time here in Aotearoa New Zealand and friends I had NO idea.

I knew about the event of course. John Oliver has his own mural here in Wellington.

Buckle in.

It's a monument to the Forest & Bird 'Bird of the Century' competition, with all the birds and a cheeky Last Week Tonight with John Oliver cameo. A big mihi to Wellington Electricity for making this happen." 

The mural is the entire front of an electrical substation in downtown Wellington. The the center is a giant flamboyant pūteketek with John Oliver peeping over its shoulder. On the right and left are profiles of all the other birds glaring at Oliver and the pūteketek.Photo by me: The Bird of the Century mural, by Kiran Parbhu Photography.
