"That’s why it’s so disheartening to see the Times adopt the cynical framing of the fascists, as this headline does."

Change "disheartening" to "expected", and I'm right there with you. They're fully on board with fascism.

Dear New York Times,
Forcing women to give birth against their will is β€œbig government.” Protecting an 88-year-old program like Social Security isn’t. Whether you agree with Biden on the fine points, it’s obvious that he’s trying to save rational, democratic government from the ongoing fascist assault. That’s why it’s so disheartening to see the Times adopt the cynical framing of the fascists, as this headline does.

There are some really kind people here, that constantly make me go to someone I love and say "look at what this person said about my song, that's so wonderful and kind..." and smile a lot. It's not an easy time for me, so I just want you all to know your support means a lot to me. Thank you ❀️

About ten years ago a flying squirrel snuck into my house and spent a few hours playing hide-and-seek with my cat. Anyways. Here's the best photo you're likely to ever see of a flying squirrel hiding inside a #sunmicrosystems E4000 server chassis. #retrocomputing #mammals

Minimizing it also relies on the pile-on urge. "Oh, this is new and hot - I must be part of it!" leads to "Oh, this is old and tired - time to abandon it." That will work with a segment of the population, but not all.

Zelensky hugs BBC Ukrainian reporter at news conference

During a press conference, a BBC Ukrainian journalist rose to her feet and prefaced her question by saying she would like to give #Zelensky a hug, but would probably not be allowed.

β€œWhy not?” Zelensky responded, before vacating his lectern and offering a warm embrace.

Hello everyone, I'm new to mastodon because I'm sick of FB which is gladly deleted πŸ™ƒ

I'm excited and overwhelmed but dunno how or where to start lol πŸ˜†

Selfie, eye contact 

No makeup and a little bit of stubble because I need a better morning routine, but we've got spring-like weather this week (it'll get cold this weekend), so I went with a spring-like top.

You ever have a dream with another person in it and, the next time you see them, you keep staring at them and telepathically asking if they want to talk about it, but they’re not responding because they’re clearly too embarrassed about the super weird stuff that happened in the dream?

While the GQP screams about censorship.
Maybe you could start the meetings with a big chart, showing them how the 1st amendment actually works? They seem confused.

Social media is a powerful tool with the potential to amplify both positive and harmful messages.

As a Member of Oversight Dems, I will utilize every opportunity to question social media executives about their plans to combat disinformation campaigns and hate online.

People who don't speak a word of German are far too confident in their ability to assassinate baby Hitler if given the opportunity to time travel.

Every so often, patience is rewarded. For 30 minutes I watched this tricolored heron fishing in a canal. He would be very still, tense up, then take wing & pounce on the fish. He then ventured down by a reflection of a yellow blossomed tree and I captured him in a β€˜dance’ above the water.
