       Today is Indigenous Peoples' Day in the US. One way to celebrate is to donate.I donated to the Cherokee Nation: https://webapps.cherokee.org/OnlineGiving/Donations/create(It asks who the recipient is; the two non-obvious ones are Angel Tree, which provides gifts to children, and One Fire, which helps survivors of abuse and violence.)http://cherokee.org/

       @josemanuelIf your concern is that something has issues, and this is unrelated to whether you are the audience, then I don't understand how this relates to the toot you are responding to.

       @josemanuelThanks for clarifying.I don't read Craig as trying to limit what one can say, but instead suggesting an alternative way of thinking about the world. Instead of thinking "this is no longer good," it might be more healthy to think "I am no longer the audience."When it comes to helping solve problems, the target audience is always going to get the best results. So if something has problems, we can delegate to the new audience to fix it.

       @josemanuelThe Daily Dot article, as I understand it, contains a mix of "I am not the audience" concerns with "here are problems everyone has" concerns. My timeline is filled with people responding to the former, ignoring the latter.The author can write anything they want, but if they wanted us to focus on fixing the place for everyone it would have been wise to leave out the first style of complaints.

       @feld if you have a product without moderation tools and you're trying to attract users, you will get some -- but will they be the ones you want building your community?

       Long story, but I have a small collection of unopened, unexpired food that I would like to donate. Can anyone in #nyc  recommend an organization or mutual aid group that would accept this?
