Yay. I love the expansion of #communitylandtrusts for #affordablehousing...
with a few caveats.
For those out of the know, community land trusts #CLT's are mostly nonprofit organizations that acquire and own land to house existing residents and prevent displacement, and maintain community ownership away from the reach of private developers.
All good and well, but remember, acquiring land costs a BUTT TON of money. Land trusts have been notoriously hard to scale. Even with $20M from #MackenzieScott I don't have high hopes that this changes CLT's viability in making a dent in our housing supply.
I would love to see CLTs develop the land to be able to fit denser and more numerous units to accommodate more families. People can correct me if I am wrong, but I don't see this happening enough.

Did any #philanthropy people out there already know that #BurningMan is a tax-deductible 501(c)(3) #charity?
I didn't. Law professor Darryll K. Jones has a funny piece in Nonprofit Law Prof Blog mulling over its possible charitable purpose.

Yes, we cottoned onto this many years ago, most #philanthropy is #fauxlanthropy.
A brilliant documentary on how #thePeople have been systematically transitioned from being an active '#citizen' to a docile '#consumer' is The Century Of The Self (#AdamCurtis/BBC, 2002).
It cover a suite of propaganda techniques used to #engineerConsent for all manner of abuse by large #corporations.

Relics of Irish labour migration in Lancashire: preserved: ‘The resting stones, spaced roughly two miles apart, were installed in about 1860 to provide seats for the mainly Irish migrant workers who were travelling on foot for seasonal agricultural work.’ https://www.theguardian.com/society/2023/aug/18/stones-made-for-victorian-project-to-help-irish-workers-given-listed-status #IrishMigration #IrishHistory #Lancashire #philanthropy

Do any of you know of a Mastodon Instance where the focus is #youthdevelopment, #workforcedevelopment, #nonschoolhours #povertyreduction, #volunteering #philanthropy #tutormentor #youthmentoring #nonprofityouthorgs #youthProgramDesign #birthtowork
I have accounts on three Instances, but very few are posting information related to these hashtags.

Another thing I would do if I were a hundred-billionaire is just give the @internetarchive another billion bucks every time one of my fellow oligarchs tried to sue them into oblivion. #InternetArchive #Fantasy #Philanthropy
I've thought about this. I can't think of another institution of any kind (government, religious, educational, philanthropic, ANY) that I'd miss more than the Archive.
I should say "Wikipedia" but I hate them for their toxic and exclusionary edgelord-volunteer culture.
