We had another successful Decentral Park meetup on Tuesday night! @tbsocialist (author of Blockchain Radicals and co-founder of Bread Coop) and Beth McCarthy (Program Director of Web3Privacy) led a workshop where we looked at global case studies of municipal socialism through a technology & sovereignty angle, and then used them as inspiration to draft decentralized tech proposals for a progressive NYC administration. Some of the ideas we brainstormed: - Community pension fund management - Using EBT rails to give the city privacy-safe data to spot price gouging and plan city-run groceries - Community owned and operated broadband infrastructure Come join us in future nyc meetups, our tg link is below :) https://decentralpark.nyc/ https://bit.ly/decentralparkTG

More of one of these, than the other please! The impact of having poetry in our communal public spaces is 10x compared to having just another AI ad. The poem on the left is put on by The Poetry Societyx MTA’s Poetry in Motion program, which places poetry in transit of cities all over American cities. Public transit is a space where we are quite literally in transition, in flux, and having an opportunity to pause, interact, and engage with beautiful words brings life to my daily rhythms. Please more of this instead of just more vc funded AI promotion
