...long before pocket distraction rectangles, when all was analogue, we spent lots of time waiting around, chatting with whoever was nearby, and staring off into space thinking about things. ...letters used to be a thing, a way that you could spend a bit of time to communicate in a physically manifested way that would last for a long time. Letters would often bring forth tears when received and more tears when found decades later in shoe boxes in attics. https://3m.fyi/posts/remember-letters-and-those-who-deliver-them/ #SendAletter

I feel ya, brother. But still would be great if Holyrood and gov would move on:

• RCI: force SLP BO disclosure for land
• ban SLPs from public contracts
• Police Scotland SLP taskforce
• AML audits of Scots firms
• Scottish SLP risk list + bank alerts

@JoBlakely Me too. But quite the pejorative term among older confused Georgians (the one near Chechnya not the one near Alabama). Stalin and the worst Soviets used it as a sort of generic nationalistic insult and the residue has lasted among the Putin/Orban crew. But thanks for the reminder. It's due for a renewed embrace.

@gdinwiddie@mastodon.social The most saintly person I have ever known was my grandparents gardiner. He and his wife are buried right next to Joseph Heller. Great trio.

@pockets @mayintoronto Thank you for this. When I go into settings, I don't have anything that says import or export... I found this, "In the settings menu, click on the "Data export" tab, which is located on the left side of the screen." My settings don't have that anywhere that Incan find. Is that possible?

@peterbrown Each jurisdiction has its role and piece of the pie. London is where the babysitters meet the oligarchs to set up the Scottish entities through which to launder the funds. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scottish_limited_partnership Great new book by the world's authority on oligarchy and money laundering, for those interested: https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/everybody-loves-our-dollars-how-money-laundering-won-oliver-bullough/7959796

@andyjennings@aus.social Libraries have printers and find fun uses for these in case you may be interested. They're free. http://rorshok.com/ourzines/

@jonsnow@mastodon.online If you know anybody who might be interested, please forward this to them.... We are setting up a #Deshittification CoOp for whose who want to deshittify their lives and this world. We'll host a call to figure out how to do this on 29 April. All welcome. https://rorshok.com/tracks/dsht-coop/ #enshittification https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enshittification

@johncarlosbaez@mathstodon.xyz Says you and whose army?

@jwildeboer@social.wildeboer.net @tante@tldr.nettime.org I go for Digital Independence myself. Independence has the right vibe, at least for (US) Americans, and avoids the Sovereignty bro coding.
