You work in tech. You regularly have to input some form of MFA, whether passkey or a rolling code MFA from something like Google Authenticator or Authy. You work from home, and slack is the primary form of communication, with email becoming a distant secondary form. Time AFK (Away From Keyboard) is possible if you have your #smartphone, and you panic if it's not within reach. How do you go to a #dumbphone, in this scenario? I would like to ditch my smartphone, carry a camera on #bike trips, reduce my #addiction to the internet a bit, reduce the #surveillance of my activity a bit. My main concern is work requirements for communication and MFA. I am curious about things like #grapheneos, #fairphone, dumbphones. I have a Google #Pixel, an older model, and definitely don't want something newer that has more #AI integration, surveillance. Have you done this? How did it go? Please boost.

Great idea! #Chicago is repurposing old newspaper boxes to create "little free libraries" of Narcan in areas with high overdose rates. https://blockclubchicago.org/2026/09/09/free-narcan-newsboxes-expanding-to-more-chicago-neighborhoods/#Illinois #addiction

Free Narcan Newsboxes Expanding To More Chicago Neighborhoods

The newsboxes were established a year ago through a partnership with the Chicago Department of Public Health and the 46th Ward office to help make the opioid overdose reversal drug more widely available.

Medical bias is killing addiction patients — safe treatments exist but doctors refuse to offer them https://www.npr.org/2026/08/06/nx-s1-5845162/addiction-treatment-overdose-deaths Addiction treatments are safe, effective — and rarely offered to patients. That's because many doctors and nurses still view people with alcohol or drug addiction with suspicion and hostility. #wellness #addiction #healthcare

Hospital staff said he was faking it and released him. He died from an overdose soon after

📣 If You Can Help Them, Don’t Hurt Them I’m on my way to volunteer at the New England Center and Home for Veterans here in Boston. ➡️ It’s a reminder that when we see someone who may be experiencing homelessness, mental health challenges, or active addiction, we’re seeing a human being. They could be a veteran, someone’s father, mother, son, daughter, grandparent, or loved one — someone who belongs to somebody. I’ve been homeless before. The only reason I was able to rebuild my life was because people believed in me and gave me hope. ➡️ If you’d like to support the NECHV, they always welcome volunteers, donations, and community engagement at https://nechv.org 🗣️ At the end of the day, we have more in common than not. If you can help someone, don’t hurt them. #Boston #veterans #addiction #recovery #ODAAT #housing #homelessness #mentalhealth #hope

Coupe du Monde : les pubs pour les paris sportifs sont omniprésentes. Mais avez-vous vu ou entendu ce clip de prévention sur les dégâts liés aux paris ? Non ? Normal : les régies publicitaires ont refusé à Addiction France de le diffuser. C’est une forme de censure — ripostons en le partageant à leur place. Plus d'infos sur les conséquences de ce type de ces publicités → https://addictions-france.org/actualites/coupe-du-monde-face-a-lomnipresence-des-paris-sportifs-addictions-france-alerte-14067/ #publicite #football #coupedumonde #parissportifs #addiction #antipub

All of this is reason to end the #oil #addiction API gravity tells us how light or heavy the oil is. • US WTI: ~40° API — light, golden, and easier to refine • Iran Light: ~34° API • Russia Urals: ~31° API • Venezuela: ~8–12° API — extremely heavy, like tar Oil quality plays a major role in global energy economics and politics — not just the amount of oil a country has. The lighter the crude, the cheaper and easier to refine into gasoline and diesel. Heavier crude requires more refining. #energy #crude #pimpsofthepumps #fossilfools

"Fracasse est un ouvrage collaboratif hybride fait de textes et d’images en tous genres. Il vise à questionner ouvertement les liens entre l’alcool et nos vies en prenant soin de s’épargner au maximum le jugement moral et les a priori portés sur ces questions. 24 contributeur·ices, artistes et amateur·ices ont participé à ce projet de plus de 60 pages qui contient également un fascicule de ressources pour mieux vivre avec ou sans alcool. Par la pluralité des expressions – BD, témoignages, poésies, illustrations, archives – qui y sont rassemblées, Fracasse tente avant tout d’ouvrir les voix et de sortir des schémas binaires et des positions de surplomb, pour se sentir un peu mieux, peut-être." Un grand merci à @chdarling@mastodon.social, @lisiere@mastodon.social et Max Cahun d'avoir initié ce projet que je suis extrêmement content de pouvoir diffuser avec la BIM et dont la lecture m'a vivement enthousiasmé ! #fanzine #alcool #addiction #rdr
