Those who don't dissent, divest or resist through #CommunityCare ARE equally as violent as those #facist they fear
But go on and assume bigoted views rooted in Anti-Blackness and #Ablism and don't believe victims if ongoing #systemic oppression and injustice when we ask for pennies for food
Or a simple fucking #boost when even $1 from a few people would help us eat
i know you don't want to be on fuckface but pls read what my comrade and sister wrote, before you vote:
https://www.nationaldiversityawards.co.uk/awards-2025/nominations/systemic/
we NEED more votes. Please share with all your friends far and wide to promote our #choir for the #NationalDiversityAwards. Winning this would be a dream come true!!
What we are all about;
#SYSTEMIC very existence is built on the values of #inclusion,
Many of our members suffer with social anxiety and have experienced isolation and have often felt not valued in life in general. In SYSTEMIC it is different!
We make sure absolutely everyone who comes through the door feels special!
For instance, one of our members travels approximately an 80 mile round journey on the bus to sing at our weekly practice and had mentioned that in many years of trying to attend choirs, he was never offered a solo.
We believe everyone has a song inside of them, its just a case of finding the right song and arrangement. This member has his solo with us! leads the way with his rendition of Dirty Old Town and also brings joy to our audiences as they can see how much fun, and how proud we are all to be there together. Our choir is very different. We accept and welcome non singing members! As we often find that once a person feels included, they will find their voice and raise their confidence level enough to use it.
We have already begun this year's #PRIDE performances as we have shone at Teesside University Intersectional PRIDE event which followed on from our previous performances at the Uni and many other places.
We are built on the ethic of #TrueEqualityMatters which means, everyone attends with zero cost. #TheArcStocktonArts centre understands this and offers us the dance studio each week to practice in for free which gives the wider public an opportunity to witness and join us without any financial barriers or sense of hierarchy due to qualifying on low income. We shine in many places around our region and have recently won the Inclusion award 2025 with Catalyst Stockton who are the regions voluntary development organisation. In winning this award we were invited to plant our tree in a “trees not trophies” initiative which we did so PROUDLY. Our organisation has provided a safe an inclusive space where EVERYONE is welcome, valued, and appreciated. Changing the world, one song at a time.
At least #Perplexity got one thing right:
-----
Multiple #independent #investigations and #leaked #internal #data confirm that #SocialMedia platforms—especially #Meta (#Facebook and #Instagram)—have engaged in #widespread, #systematic #censorship of #pro-Palestinian #content, often in direct response to #Israeli #government #requests[1][2][3][4][6][7]. This censorship has resulted in the #removal, #suppression, or #shadowbanning of tens of thousands of #posts and #accounts, with a disproportionate impact on users from Arab and Muslim-majority countries, but also affecting users worldwide[2][3][4][6].
Key points from the evidence:
- Meta has complied with 94% of Israeli government takedown requests since October 7, 2023, resulting in over 90,000 immediate removals and the suppression of millions more posts through automated systems[2][3][4][6].
- The vast majority of these requests targeted #content #critical of #Israel or #supportive of #Palestinians, and only a tiny fraction targeted Israeli users[3][6].
- #HumanRightsWatch and other NGOs have documented this as a #global, #systemic pattern of #censorship, not isolated incidents[1][5][7].
- There is no comparable evidence of systematic censorship or suspension for users expressing pro-Israeli views; the #documented #bias overwhelmingly targets pro-Palestinian speech[1][2][3][4][5][6][7].
In summary, the documented reality is that pro-Palestinian views are aggressively censored on major social media sites, while pro-Israeli views do not face the same level of moderation or suppression. This creates a significant imbalance in the digital public sphere[1][2][3][4][6][7].

Answer from Perplexity: pplx.ai/share
@israel@a.gup.pe @palestine@a.gup.pe @gaza@a.gup.pe
If there's someone around you who is #suffering especially from #isolation and doesn't get to be with other #people in #community much, take the #initiative to #ReachOut and #invite them to engage in a #social #activity with you. Try to #identify and #eliminate the #barriers keeping them isolated, if they want to be more engaged. Part of having a strong community is having #robust, #systemic ways to #adapt in order to fold people in.
#systemic practice #TheVillage after my little cry, and invited me to sing it solo for our performance on the 29th of April.

I am so grateful to all of you, specially Elisha for welcoming and opening your #ellieverse for me!

"Voters hv been hit w a barrage of attack ads fr special interest groups, & record-setting sums of money have been spent to sway residents.. “tt piece of #legislation made things worse, Our #public #discourse is basically who can inflame things in the most clever way w some terrible TV ad that’s probably not even true.” “this spending has the potential to drown out speech rights for all citizens, narrow debate,.. & increase the risk of #systemic #corruption.”" 
Govt policies lack foresight

I just took that course, and you should to ! It was amazing, like very, very good.
Well, of course it might depends of the people attending... But 5 out of 5 of my teamates were amazing, so the statistics are in your favor :)
And the material is amazing, too.
Did I say it was amazing ?
#system #systemic #softwareArchitecture
We just reached the end if the last days of @RuthMalan System Design course, and is was exceptional 
I mean, of course Ruth is a well of knowledge on systemic and technical architecture design, and her slides+context by themselves are worth the cost of the training. They are just amazing, a succession of pearls distilling the vast knowledge of that broad field. Look by yourself!.
But in addition, I spent 6 days doing group work with an amazing team - that said from someone for whom even anticipating social interactions is burning energy like the sun -, and I practiced a lot of unfamiliar tools that gave shape to intuitions, the kind of "actually that's that you're looking for and you forgot all these parts in your attempt" feedback you get when you're at the beginning of a learning curve.
Thank you Ruth for having organized and shepherded that meeting!
The Last Generation of Black Americans Under Jim Crow

Prescribed burn in the the Valley of the Giants gone wrong
Save the tourist infrastructure not the national park?
"A plan to protect tourist infrastructure has resulted in an estimated 180 large trees falling over. Western Australian authorities say the planned burn was carried out east of the Valley of the Giants precinct to protect visitor infrastructure. While the tourist hub was untouched, conservationists say the fire has been "catastrophic" for a nearby section of bushland, and the outcome should have been predicted."
