Just to say that little tab on the left in the Micro Blog app that says ‘Posts’ - boy do I find it useful for a quick post pub edit to fix an issue.
Thankyou @manton
I know how they feel …

Taxpayers money paid to individuals going to the mothership?
This smacks of the Catholic Church operating like a large multinational corporation …
Priests eligible for JobKeeper asked to donate the extra allowance to their Catholic diocese.
Well that all makes sense. It is.
It’s now easier to show the Green states.

For all aspiring activists that plan to hit the streets.
I posted this on the 16th of June pointing out that at prior milestones there was a countdown.
6 days later we passed another million.
6 days isn’t really enough for a countdown.
Trump’s 3-Point Plan to Win in 2020
-
Attack the independence and integrity of the legal system;
-
benefit from foreign help and trust that by the time the help is proved, it will be stale news of scant interest to anybody;
-
benefit from voting obstacles, particularly those that will impede black voting, and super-particularly those that will wedge apart the Democratic coalition on racial lines. (The Trump administration is not directly to blame for the coming mess in Kentucky—states manage elections—but it clearly relishes such situations.)
”So now Bolsonaro’s close ally is safely ensconced in the U.S., presumably out of the reach of the Brazilian law enforcement investigators scrutinizing suspected criminality. And Bolsonaro, to smuggle his ally into the U.S. where he can be immune from Brazilian legal process, manipulated the public health order of President Trump that is designed to protect Americans from the spiraling, unprecedented coronavirus crisis in Brazil.”

(It’s the same for Micro Blog podcasts.)
Emoji question for the cognoscenti.
I am using the #️⃣ emoji.
The second link uses a reference not the raw image - but the raw image is used throughout the site - like all other emojis - with no problem.
Any ideas?
With Twitter’s new voice tweet feature, I’d like a simple way to post a voice message to RSS … I have lots of working code for dealing with feeds …. let’s make podcasts super easy for the people.

Another great graphic from Visual Capitalist - the underlying data comes from 511 experts. Pause for thought. Example : around 21 of them think that we will never … ever … exercise at a gym again.
Missed this a couple of weeks ago - but love how thoughtfully presented data can deliver so much information in a single image.
