"Gov. Ron DeSantis axed funding on Thursday for Central Florida projects to stop flooding during the next hurricane, strengthen government cybersecurity defenses, celebrate Black history and tackle gun violence."
From Orlando Sentinel
I can understand why the budding fascist, gun loving racist freak, doesn't support gun control or Black history, but flood prevention and cyber security?
Why does Desantis hate Florida?
Technical question re Mastodon. Why did my Mastodon stop working? Do I need a Mastodon account in addition
to Mas.to? Who can I contact to fix it if needed?
Had some sort of disruption of Mas.to account a couple weeks ago. Administrator fixed it and it's working fine. However, just noticed that Mastodon came to a halt about the same time.
I am not a tech person. Pardon my ignorance, but can someone please advise me? Thanks! 🌞
Fascinating to see how this works in countries outside the US. One of the biggest problems we have here is that huge corporations have bought up hundreds of local and national publications. More than half of US newspapers are in the hands of 6 companies. Competition is becoming non existent. Under the circumstances it's not surprising that fewer people subscribe and revenues are falling.
...a three-judge trial judge panel sided with a group of 12 self-described “non-African American” voters who alleged that their “personal dignity” had been injured because the new map with two Black-majority districts “racially stigmatizes,” “racially stereotypes” and “racially maligns” them." https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/06/politics/louisiana-congressional-map-voting-rights-act/index.html
