@kathimmel No problem! I'm thinking FreeTech Project - hopefully they'll get in funds for web tweak in the future, so may well need quotes from you. I'll keep you posted!

@kathimmel Yeah it's a part of the media landscape battle many forget about! I talked about it on my website. And speaking of websites, saw your awesome work and will mention you to the organisations I'm involved with. I reckon something could be sorted!

@kathimmel That sucks! I must admit I was surprised Sheffield was getting a visit. Hopefully at some point they keep going further north!

can i be perfectly frank? i'm useless at self-promotion & nobody knows about my web design business; so...before i tear it all down, i'm giving it one last push here.
if you need a website to promote you or your organisation - a great idea in a world where you have increasingly less control over your social media info - i produce lo-fi, future-proof, sustainable #websites with an emphasis on quick-loading, energy-efficient, impactful #design.

I'm still shipping around a few written works in progress, mostly covering pro wrestling and pop culture from an anti-capitalist perspective. Let me know if you have sites you'd recommend I submit them to - they don't all have to be paid. #ProWrestling #PopCulture #AntiCapitalism #union #writing #journalism

@Mordantivore Hell yes!

@myeyesaredim @antiaall3s Yes - I wanted to tell me partner about that one in particular, so read it out aloud but just spontaneously burst into tears at my desk before I could even get to the end.

@antiaall3s Ooh nice, thank you!

Had to log into ExTwitter for an old account that's getting deleted (yes I feel dirty, and not in a good way) and discovered something amazing called the #BerlinBuyersClub who are doing some incredible awareness raising around #LongCovid from what I can tell - hopefully they show up on the Fediverse!

Profits just keep rolling in at T-Mobile US. So only thing to do is axe 5,000 workers https://go.theregister.com/feed/www.theregister.com/2023/08/25/t_mobile_layoffs_5000/ #TMobile #capitalism

So I cut a podcast episode for @theleftfist about pro wrestler Bray Wyatt, who has died at age 36 after having Covid, and it turned into a rant about capitalism being a death cult and the pandemic being a mass disabling event as #CovidIsNotOver (such content there is often free, just patrons get early access): https://www.patreon.com/posts/88232405?utm_campaign=postshare_creator

@theleftfist I wonder if even a Covid-related death of a young and popular professional wrestler will wake up more people to the scientific fact that, despite what capitalists would have us believe, #CovidIsNotOver.
