#TomFord (new queer neighbour) is about to make life even more awkward for Trump at Mar-a-Lago
In 2019, a tweet went viral with a quote attributed to Ford that claimed he didnβt want to dress Melania because sheβs a βGLORIFIED ESCORTβ

I don't think she's glorified. Calling her an escort gives her more credit than she deserves.

Maybe TFG should see about switching his theme song?

Someone's worried no one will show up! #Trump #2024
The ex-president plans a smaller event than his usual big-arena rallies. https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-campaign-south-carolina_n_63c1a554e4b0cbfd55f2d7c9
"Hey, can you switch instances? Your admin favorited a joke that I didn't appreciate once. Might need to block you otherwise. Oh, and that crowdfunding platform you use? Back in 2006 they let an organization I don't personally align with use their platform. You should abandon that. Also, -"
Shhhh. Let people enjoy things. I am all for being socially conscious but we can't boycott everything. We are so tired. Please go outside.

I'm perfectly OK with that. This whole face-to-face fixation most people have is highly overrated.
Thank you @gretathunberg for your support in #Germany! πͺ π
Excellent news though

rbreich@masto.ai - Your feelings about Musk aside, this isn't something to celebrate. Our focus should be on fixing an economic system that allows one person to gain such massive wealth.
Despite losing more than the rest of us can even imagine, Musk is still the second richest person in the world.

"Is... Is it okay to be weird?"
The witch studied the young woman.
"No."
"No? I thought you'd understand."
"Don't be weird," the witch said. "Be yourself."
"But..."
"Now, some people may call that weird, but that's their word, not yours. Be yourself, however that is."

βThe floatovoltaic industry is poised to expand rapidly. Science and policy must move equally fast to ensure that this use of the worldβs reservoirs is sustainable & equitable.β
Some valuable insight to consider today as we fight to end fossil fuel use.
@MarkRuffalo
I have so many questions about that article.
"But for some projects, so much methane β a potent greenhouse gas β is released from decaying submerged plant matter that they can emit as much carbon per unit energy as do fossil-fuel power plants."
Yes, methane is a powerful greenhouse gas, but short-lived in the atmosphere. It breaks down relatively quickly.
Sunlight powers plant growth in the water, filtering pollutants. What are the effects of reducing plants?
I was just fired. If you know someone hiring staff level software engineers, preferably in a #sre, #devops, or #PlatformEngineering space, I'd love to talk.

I've given up. As malnutrition sets in and they're being served an eviction notice, they'll be glued to Tucker Carlson telling them it's all, somehow, Biden's fault - and by extension every Dem. And they'll believe it.

Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing.
