From @sergio.chapa in 2023: Given a pace of about three miles per hour, it would take roughly 32 hours to hike the entire trail nonstop. Hiking about eight hours per day means less than a week of hiking and camping.
But that’s not the path I chose.

When exploring RPG mechanics and playstyles, two concepts frequently come to mind: immersion and authoring. These approaches are central to how we experience and create stories, yet they lead to profoundly different player experiences.

Americans say the US did not have churches in 1776, gulags have never existed, and the Vietnam War never happened.

U.S. suspends visas for Palestinian passport holders, officials say.
August 31, 2025 ~4:20pm
The Trump administration has enacted a sweeping suspension of approvals of almost all types of visitor visas for Palestinian passport holders, according to American officials.The new policy goes beyond the restrictions announced by U.S. officials recently on visitor visas for Palestinians from Gaza. Last week, the State Department also said it would not issue visas to Palestinian officials to attend the annual U.N. General Assembly in New York next month.

Fresh Gary drop. This will be interesting to watch because he might be able to address some of the debate around taxing wealth, which I will add needs some sophistication in order to deal with the extent of political power, the very richest people and companies have.
Oh absolutely!
A heavy duty cultural shift is what it will take, rejecting the whole concept of this level of wealth and the abusive sociopathy inherent to the system that allows it-- so they get hounded out.
I'm just aghast at the people who keep insisting we simply tax them as if a little legislative adjustment is all it would take to correct the situation.
@violetmadder
Taxation is the start. If we in general understand that it is the first step reasserting our decision-making power and our autonomy and freedom from subjugation of wealth and their corporations.
It’s a matter of survival.

Hello folks on Mastodon.social! 👋🏻
I cannot see most of your posts or your profile by default.
This is because my instance hides your instance.
I am not ignoring you; I don’t see you!
Your instance is sadly a hotbed of scam accounts. There are plenty of other servers you can join.
Finding the right instance for your tastes can be challenging, but luckily, helpful articles explain the whole moving process. Good luck!

@herrherrmann mastodon.social is way too big, has unmoderated signups and is very badly moderated. That leads to a lot of problems for the Fediverse.
First and most obvious is the regular scam waves coming from m.s and other big servers with unmoderated signups.
But far worse is that such a big server is a big pain for well moderated servers: Moderators on smaller servers spend a lot of unpaid time moderating accounts and posts on m.s, while moderators on m.s get paid for moderating badly.
If a small server is moderated this badly, its easy to just block it as a whole, but if I blocked m.s that would probably lead to many people leaving my server and moving to m.s or another big, badly moderated server, because m.s is about 25% of the Fediverse.
Saying m.s is not part of the Fediverse is of course technically not true, but if you, like me, define the Fediverse as a non-central network, then a server hoarding 25% of the users does not fall under that definition.
m.s is #TooBigTooFail
