I'm never, never going to forget the epic failure of police during #Uvalde. I'm not anti-cop or anything like that, but there is zero defense of this level of total mission failure. Read only if you have the bandwidth to be pissed for a bit.https://www.propublica.org/article/uvalde-officer-student-trainings-mass-shootings

I appreciate Mike and Bailio on our team putting together a video update on what's new in Jetpack. It's a different format from the ones we used for previous updates. I hope it is helpful to y'all!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iB6fgLmG2ug#jetpack #wordpress

Jetpack Social launched a Social Notes CPT as a simplified posting experience (no title, etc).Connected with the auto-publishing to social networks and the ActivityPub Fediverse native publishing through that plugin, this is a nice step closer to make it easier to make WordPress your personal home on the web.https://bk.cx/sn/64963/

@macmanx Does it look the same if you check out the @kraft@bk.cx user directly?I wonder if it is the social note being Publicized vs federated via AP.I know one thing they want to do is when you share to Mastodon and have ActivityPub, I think they're going to look at boosting the native post instead of making a new one.

My heart aches tonight for the families impacted by the fatal school bus collision outside of Austin today. 44 Pre-K students returning from a field trip to a zoo with 11 adults were on a bus that was struck by a concrete truck that veered into them. One child was killed and one adult in a third vehicle that hit the bus as it was rolling over also died. Latest said 4 were medevaced via helicopter and 6 others by the primary medic agency. “Others” were also transported…https://bk.cx/sn/64991/

The school district released the name of the Pre-K student that died in Friday's school bus vs concrete truck accident. The article includes links to a GoFundMe for his family specifically and a second one for the overall school community. https://www.kut.org/education/2024-03-25/5-year-old-ulises-rodriguez-montoya-identified-as-student-killed-in-hays-cisd-bus-crash?utm_source=KUT_daily&utm_medium=KUT_email&utm_campaign=2024-3-25_email

@monarchist KMFA started when the only commercial classical station switched formats back in the 60s. There is a great amount of support—the 200k is only 7% of the budget. IMO, it's one thing to end funding (I do think there is value in the government supporting the arts but fair that others disagree), but clawing back already approved funding is regretful and is painful for a lot of non-profit organizations that didn't expect to fill this gap immediately.

@monarchist that's part of the kicker. KMFA isn't an NPR station. I think they syndicate a program from NPR that makes sense for classical music, but they aren't an affiliate. Austin's NPR station isn't associated with KMFA at all. CPB supported a lot of things that are now collateral damage if the intent of the claw back was to hit NPR or PBS (in general or their news operations specific).

@monarchist eh, again, cutting funding... I disagree with but fine. The claw back is my main issue. It runs counter to my inclination that the government should honor what it said it would do.But, federal funds are well-known for having a ton of strings attached. Carve out any organizations that produce or broadcast national news [some type of ability to broadcast local information allowed, which also negates the criticism that it would impact local news], etc.

Processing the weekly cash deposit from the baseball fields concession stand… someone paid for candy and a soda with two $2 bills: one a 2017 series and one a *1928* series.

In the end, there are two more young people who are the victims of gun violence in our country. There are probably two dozen more across the country today. Too many.
