The #CDC employees who staff the #children’s #vaccine program were *largely* untouched, 3 sources familiar w/the situation said.
🚨However, about 20 others were fired who comprised a unit that helped promote the program in #communities at high risk of #InfectiousDisease, including during the current #measles #outbreak, these sources said. These employees helped bolster the confidence in the safety & effectiveness of #vaccines, they said.

Day 16 cont ☢️🏭

“There is a “growing backlash” to the #Coalition’s #NuclearPlan, ☢️ with #community groups furious at the lack of consultation and angered that the policy would not give local #communities the #PowerOfVeto and that #NuclearPlants ☢️ would be built regardless of local #opposition.

Opponents say the pro-nuclear ☢️ lobby group #NuclearForAustralia ☢️ has been hosting #InformationSessions but that it makes it overly difficult for people to attend and ask questions, and is not able to answer those #questions that are posed.”

#LeeZeldin’s move effectively ends 3 decades of work at the #EPA to try to ease the #pollution that burdens #poor & #minority communities, which are frequently located near #highways, #PowerPlants, #industrial plants & other polluting facilities. Studies have shown that people who live in those #communities have higher rates of #asthma, #HeartDisease & other #health problems, compared w/the national average.

Calling all restaurant workers and owners: Eater has got you covered #immigration #ICE
“'The lives of #immigrants and U.S.-born residents are deeply intertwined, and it is not possible to target #undocumented immigrants without harming citizens and U.S. residents and immigrants of other statuses too,' says Hahn. 'Everything that they are doing is impractical, destructive, costly, it’s going to hurt our #economy. And immigrants are essential members of our #communities.'”

"Running infrastructure for yourself is hard...

Running infrastructure for others is exponentially harder."

💬 #Quotes from @localden

Continued... (hashtags added for #keywords)

"As any forum moderator or administrator can attest, the sheer volume of #spam, #abuse, and just generally #trash #behavior can wear down even the most seasoned veterans of the .com era.

And that’s if we’re talking about #communities that #host tens of thousands of users. Scale that to a few million and there won’t be enough hours in the day to either keep the servers running (stuff is costly too) or to monitor the content for anything potentially harmful or inappropriate.

For anyone that wants to start a #community, it’s a no-brainer that they should probably start somewhere where they can “#outsource” the hard things, like moderation and infrastructure, to someone who is an expert and has built-in mechanisms to handle everything in-house. Especially when the funds for this are at or around zero dollars. That’s a totally reasonable stance to take, and I absolutely get the rationale there.

Not only that, but a lot of the existing ecosystems rest on the shoulders of network effects.

Once everyone you care about is on #Reddit, are you really going to be the only one not on Reddit and try to #bootstrap your own little corner for a specific community? Probably not, and attracting people there would be much harder. Reddit is the one-stop-shop - I can go there for woodworking advice, but I can also chat in #local communities, or communities around collecting #stamps, with the same account and within the same interface. Are you really going to post #photos of your fridge that you want to #sell on your blog and hope that in a year someone discovers it through a Google search? Of course not - you will go to #Facebook #Marketplace or #Craigslist and get it sold within a few days.

You, the #user, are going to go where most people are, because you’re optimizing for #solving your #problems, such as finding like-minded individuals or #selling the fridge quickly and getting it out of your garage to make room for a table saw.

Most people are this way - they don’t care who or how maintains or runs a community or network as long as that place solves the problems they set out to solve. When that #goal overlaps with the company’s desire to make money, you end up in somewhat of a goldilocks zone, but that’s typically a short-lived experience with #modern services. More on that shortly."

When I Accidentally #Outed #NikkiGiovanni

As a #fan of Giovanni, I admired her #brilliance and #activism. But a #misstep caused #backlash—labeling her an “#out #lesbian.” This incident highlights the need to respect #privacy and avoid #assumptions.

— Giovanni never publicly #identified as #LGBTQ+, though her work inspired #queer #communities.

In a #world where #fastfoods and #tinnedfood are becoming the #norm, we need to start using spaces close to our houses to grow food #organically, using #natural compost from our Kitchen rather than #artificialfertlizers . This will provide us with a constant supply of healthy #food and #vegetables and improve the well-being of families and #communities. Be the change.

@ntnsndr For anyone, the Open Social Incubator project is ... colorado.edu/lab/medlab/2024/0
...an example of how people can build technical #skills to create #communities in online spaces that are democratically-run, open #SocialNetworks, not corporate spaces that are run by autocrats.
