This is great news but such a change would be best passed as law as opposed to just an FTC rule. of course the way things are nothing much can pass as law in US.
Critical under-the-radar item in the Ford #Conservative government's 2022/23 budget:

Sending its convicted murderers and rapists to Bakhmut, Russia is losing its worst. Ukraine is losing some of its best. https://twitter.com/mykhed_o/status/1610705656897585163
@davemark your original post was in quotes. what were you quoting?
just as I was saying: McCarthy is making concessions to the far righters tryting to get their votes to become #SpeakerOfTheHouse including offering them commitee slots. this isn't going to end well.

@colo_lee @TheOldGuy@newsie.social I would not be so sure that bill will be sufficient even for a year. decisions on the type and amount of aid offered are changing constantly.
People are understandably making fun of the debacle that is the #SpeakerOfTheHouse election but I have a bad feeling about where things will end. Which I think will be McCarthy caving in to many/most of the demands the GOP holdouts are making. This can only be a bad thing. For example Matt Gaetz is demanding the chairmanship of the Armed Services subcommittee. If that clown gets it this will be VERY bad news for many reasons. Chief among them: Gaetz will torpedo aid for #ukraine .
Finally! #Ukraine will get US tanks!!

Jill Barber - All My Dreams
I think I mentioned before that Jill Barber is my favorite Canadian singer. She deserves to be better known.

The number of active Mastodon users — those who've logged in in the last 30 days — has fallen to 1.8 million from a high of 2.6 million. This reflects the fact that while there's a wave of new users after each Musk tantrum, the majority aren't sticking around. Even the 1.8M figure is inflated by new accounts, so I expect a further drop.
Still, the number of active users is over 4 times what it used to be before the Twitter takeover.

3. The incentive to play hurt is amplified when you consider that the average NFL career is THREE YEARS.
And about three years after retirement, most NFL players are broke.
@davemark is this rule in the constitution or is it tradition?
On January 4, 1643 [N.S.] (25 Dec 1642 [O.S.]), Sir Isaac Newton, famous physicist, mathematician, astronomer, natural philosopher, and alchemist was born. With his Principia Newton laid the foundation of modern classical mechanics. Besides he constructed the very first reflecting telescope and independent of Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz developed differential and integral calculus.
