juancole.com/2025/03/movements Popular resistance in Trump’s first term accomplished more than many observers realize; it’s just that most wins happened outside the spotlight. In my view, the most visible tactics – petitions, hashtags, occasional marches in Washington – had less impact than the quieter work of organizing in communities and workplaces.

Informed Comment · Social Movements constrained Trump in his first Term – Much more than People RealizeBy Kevin A. Young, UMass Amherst (The Conversation) - Donald Trump’s first term as president saw some of the largest mass protests seen in the U.S. in over 50 years, from the 2017 Women’s March to the 2020 protests after George Floyd’s murder. Things feel different this time around. Critics seem quieter. Some point to fear of retribution. But there’s also a sense that the protests of Trump’s first term were ultimately futile. This has contributed to a widespread mood of despair. As The New York Times noted not long ago, Trump “had not appeared to be swayed by protests,

I am going to look at other server on Mastodon to check if they have good rules and good moderation team (maybe some of them like to do everything by themselves)

I am going rating on how the moderation going on? Do the server have their community guidelines? Do they have strict policy NSFW content

#MarshMadness day 22 :boost_requested:
Not many leaves on the trees yet, so marshes look less lush, but it's still a marsh!

If you can spare a few minutes for our environment, please leave a comment against the Removal of the National Environmental Policy Act. This is the "Magna Carta" of environmental laws in the US, and removing will bring total destruction. Once removed, it will be easy to decimate even our National Parks. federalregister.gov/documents/ Comments close next week.

From the right bottom corner to the middle left is marsh waters that reflect the gray sky above. There is not really any greenery in the photo due to it still being cold, so grasses and sedges are in their tan brown dormancy state. Some trees along the edge in the background are also leafless. A power line is faintly visible.

'Elbows up Canada:' Windsor community protests U.S. in cross-border rally
The message from hundreds who rallied at Windsor's riverfront on Saturday was clear: Canada is strong and proud. But there was also disappointment and disillusionment about the rhetoric of the U.S. administration toward its closest ally.

Late #parkrun report. Back at the local on a grey day. Ceri was pacing and then ‘scrunning’ (scanning bar codes after running). I was trying to beat the 31 minute pacer, who clocked in at something like 30:25, so even though I was behind her I still got sub 31. First time since last year - which was nice. Washed and sorted 181 tokens afterwards (norovirus is prevailing). So we both got runs in and volunteer credits. Always nice to chat to our Parkrun friends.

sites.libsyn.comNext Comes What: Time to Act — Fighting Ignorance While We Still CanThe dismantling of our government has begun, which means fighting ignorance is critical. All of us are due for some education. Read the post that inspired this episode: Subscribe to Andrea Pitzer’s Degenerate Art newsletter to support Next Comes What:   Do you have a question about a particular Next Comes What? Do you have more of a comment than a question you'd like to send in? Do you have a local or a national success story? Email your thoughts to nextcomeswhat at gmail dot com. You can write it. You might record it. You could even videotape yourself or your actions.  This week's episode takes on what to do in the face of the ongoing lawlessness of the Trump administration. The courts are working to uphold their role; Congress is pretty inert for now. Yet even if both branches of government rise to meet the occasion by pushing back against the current administration, a lot will come down to us, to everyday people around the country. Andrea Pitzer talks about the weird dynamics created by online rage, and exactly how that nuclear-grade energy could be better used elsewhere. She considers the different kinds of ignorance we're facing and strategies for overcoming it. Building community groups and coalitions, understanding peoples' needs and what motivates them, and easing the suffering that's already been unleashed—addressing these harms will also help us get ready to take bigger actions as Americans.
