This is first on Mastodon! Please boost this thread. It’s an important one.

Good morning to readers. Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands.

Some career news: I’m leaving NPR as part of the layoffs that dramatically reduced the company’s workforce.

I’ve decided to go back into Ukraine to keep reporting.

But this time, alone.

My husband gifted me this special paintbrush I can use on my I-pad. It works almost like one but does not give me the fine control I like when I paint. Yet I love how my stroke came out on this pink heart.

I'm not a parent, and I'd be afraid to let my parrot learn science - she runs the house as it is, if she knew how to science, she'd run the world.
But boosted, for sure.

Some people are tactile learners - we learn best by doing. I'm one of them. I can't even have someone read to me, my mind wanders and I can't retain it. Let me do it myself.
But I had a great science teacher who recognized that and let me do, with oversight.

Back in my day, you could cyber on any day, not just Monday.

I've been super emotional today for no known reason.

Hello out there!

During the
#twittermigration five months ago I joined Mastodon and now with the #calckey surge going on, I'd thought I’d check out what this side of the #Fediverse is all about.

I’m a data
#journalist with the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. My work focuses on data visualization and storytelling, analysis and investigative journalism.

I’m also a recent dad and an avid
#skier, #cyclist and general lover of anything to do with #mountains.

I used to tweet a lot, mainly about news in
#Calgary, #Alberta, #Canada, and especially about COVID-19 #data during the first two years of the pandemic. But I quit Twitter in December 2022 because it just became too much.

@ScottSoCal Well, we needed to know when Diaper stock was going to rise....

Good.

The administration actually speaks out all the time, it just doesn't get the coverage.

There are bumblebees and hummingbirds in the wisteria and I guess I live on the patio now. 😍

This feels like a pile-on by a bunch of people, and you (specifically you, Caroline) are stating facts not in evidence.

Where's the evidence anyone is profiting? Covering costs is NOT the same as profit.
And yeah, wouldn't it be great if everyone could benefit from free, open discussion in an uncontrolled environment? Not everyone can, some people need a controlled environment to cope and open up. That takes resources.
