Reminder of how much we like to criminalize being poor.
Skipping a $3.50 transit fare results in a $425 fine while skipping a $20 parking pass lands you a $70 fine that rich people complained to high heaven about. What justification, other than hating poor people, is there for this not scaling?
Make parking fines $2000 and then let's talk about the fictional "war on cars"

“The reason most public transportation is seen as ‘losing’ money is precisely because it charges for trips. If you don't charge fares, suddenly it can't ‘lose’ money. It just costs money, the same as the roads.”
This random comment has given me my new favourite argument for removing fares from public transit.
A minha amiga fodástica Temporal acabou de lançar uma novidade: um micro livro para quem precisa usar Git e se sente meio sem direção, não lembra qual comando faz o quê, etc.
Já li e é um ótimo guia para as coisas do dia-dia! Super recomendo!

Conference organizers: it is not safe for your trans participants to go to a conference in Kansas because they can no longer safely and legally pee there. Florida is likely to do the same soon. And maybe in the future any state without positive protections in law already in place.
Pick your future venues carefully and ask for escape clauses in your venue contracts should anti-trans laws be passed.
The official Mastodon app is doing something new which is potentially very dangerous to the existence of Mastodon and the Fediverse.
The official Mastodon app now prompts users to join mastodon.social by default, when previously it prompted them to pick a server. If you're new this may sound harmless, but let me explain.
The entire point of this place is to be a social network spread out on as many servers as possible (the reasons are here: https://fedi.tips/why-is-the-fediverse-on-so-many-separate-servers/).
