When I take over the world, non-smokers will be legally allowed to slap people who smoke on train and subway platforms.
Allowed? Better yet... required to!
#TIl about the #PublicSpaces Incubator, which ...
"... brings together ABC (Australia), ARD (Germany), CBC/Radio-Canada (Canada), RTBF (Belgium), SRG SSR (Switzerland), ZDF (Germany), and New_ Public (United States) to re-conceptualize how to use PSM [Public Service Media] platforms for public connection and conversation."
This might be of particular interest to @cubicgarden, given your recent role at the BBC.

Lake Oswego Corp., owned by wealthy homeowners with properties adjacent to Lake Oswego, recently lost a years-long lawsuit over restricting public access. On the 4th of July, these entitled rich people believe they can deny public access to swimmers and boaters. However, Portland has a different idea and is planning to crash the party. Instead of having a small exclusive event, their actions will create a massive spectacle. Bring fireworks, booze, marijuana and other party favors and your favorite floating device it’s going to be lit. Be sure to share this invitation with everyone you know: https://www.reddit.com/r/Portland/comments/1lkj6rp/lake_corp_cordially_invites_you_to_celebrate_the/ #uspol #oligarchy #publicaccess #publicspaces #pdx
Interested in the Downtown Master Plan? Come attend the next Council meeting Tuesday, 6/24 at 6 pm!
The meeting will feature a video tour of a 3D model, with sections on public spaces; a proposed hotel; mixed-use buildings; renovation/building of City Hall; a public market and adaptive reuse of office space; and park areas.
As always, I encourage public comment at the meeting, especially on this project. I’ll also include links in comments to flyover videos.

Good morning Fedi friends!
I'm currently packing my suitcase - destination: Amsterdam! Tomorrow I have the great honor of speaking on a panel at @publicspaces about the Fediverse: https://conference.publicspaces.net/en/session/engagement-strategies-of-the-fediverse
And right after, in the same room, there will be this superb panel: "No Musk, Zuckerberg or Trump can shut us down" feat. @bjoernsta and @andypiper (just reading the title makes me erupt in applause).
Wishing everyone a great day!
@BjornW thanks, yes I am interested in all opportunities to contribute to discussions/sessions where the topic ‘how to deal with recent ATproto developments‘ is relevant.
In Vienna, a group is forming that wants to focus on translation and bridging, and whenever appropriate: convergence.
We are searching for collaborators within other communities that care about this.
I’m looking forward to meet you again at #publicspaces in a few days :)
