@chanda.blacksky.app Over several months and through many hands, via mysterious ways including two islands 5000 km apart, this signed first edition has reached its destination. May your book serve as inspiration.

"Zero or very minimal." That is the observed impact on inflation of universal basic income in the Marshall Islands after its first 9 months of being the first country in the world with a UBI permanently implemented.

Should UBI roll out at the full amount from day one, or phase in gradually over years? Like the take you agree with. 👇

Trillionaires shouldn't exist while poverty exists. Or as Paine wrote, "I care not how affluent some may be, provided that none be miserable in consequence of it. But it is impossible to enjoy affluence with the felicity it is capable of being enjoyed, while so much misery is mingled in the scene."

Yeah, this is the right approach. Give social programs to everyone and then just tax people with higher incomes enough to offset it. Psychologically, it's a way easier sell to the public.

As I read my copy of @chanda.blacksky.app's The Edge of Space-Time, which will soon be in the hands of my very brown college sophomore godchild, while listening to Joneice Abott-Pratt's lovely narration, I'm grateful for the care taken by the whole team to present this amazing book at its best.

If you’re planning to vote in the US General Election, it’s a good idea to double check your voter registration now! Sometimes registrations get “lost” 😬

The least of people's worries right now, I know! But an interesting note from Wake County Board of Elections member Gerry Cohen on X: North Carolina's new voter-ID law includes an exception for voters who are victims of a declared natural disaster (as Hurricane Helene is). ncleg.gov/enactedlegis...

(3)
Natural Disaster. - If a registered voter does not produce an acceptable form of photograph identification due to being a victim of a natural disaster occurring within 100 days before election day that resulted in a disaster declaration by the President of the United States or the Governor of this State, the registered voter may complete an affidavit under penalty of perjury at the voting place and affirm that the registered voter: (i) is the same individual who personally appears at the voting place; (ii) will cast the provisional ballot while voting in person; and iii) was a victim of a natural disaster occurring within 100 days before election day that resulted in a disaster declaration by the President of the United States or the Governor of this State. Upon completion of the affidavit, the registered voter may cast a provisional ballot.

Ok, sarcasm and rage aside: Biden’s DOJ just busted a police department in Mississippi for actions that might have made a Peak Jim Crow department blush. Just flagrant harassment of Black citizens. Trump’s DOJ will empower those dept, and Proj 2025 wants to target reformers who would push back.

A few points about public libraries: 1. Anyone paying council tax pays for them already 2. Are good value for money 3. As a source of unbiased information, they are a vital part of democracy 4. Essential support for literacy for adults and children www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It is critical that, if you are a US citizen, you check your voter registration every so often. I check mine every two weeks in the lead-up to an election, because the GOP is very sneaky about removing people with little fanfare. Go here: vote.gov/register/ to check. I'm good. For now.

Left-wing parties banded together in France, even though they disagree over many policies, to push down the fascist right-wingers and keep them from power. It's a template of sorts for what we should do come November.

For years I used Twitter as a news feed, and it worked well. I seldom posted, though I liked and retweeted others' tweets. The plummeting SNR at Xitter has significantly reduce its utility, and a kind friend took pity and gave me an invite here. I don't expect my behavior will change much.
