PSA: Law Enforcement advises you to avoid buying baggies of eggs in dark alleys, direct from vehicles or from “egg houses”.
I’m not the first to notice this: Luigi has completely disappeared from the news. It’s an unnatural quiet. And the news media and social media are all owned by Big Business or oligarchs. Somebody does not want reporting on him or his motive.

I’m really not happy with any of the social media systems for community and discussion.

Gosh, I like that. I like the whole thing.
I just ran across this: Multiverse which appears to be a micro blogging network (eg. Twitter, Mastodon, etc.) Members appear to be able to post more than just text, so you have greater freedom of expression. That seems to be what makes it different. I have not joined so there may be more.
Egg prices have gone up sharply instead of down. Surprise, surprise.
