So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.

We did it, guys. We made it to the dystopic future.
How to Catch a Mountain Lion
an illustrative guide
1. Place a cardboard box where the animal frequently visits.
2. Sit back and wait.
3. A cat is a cat is a cat.
Visit to the Newton Room today (regional STEM hub for secondary schools), loads of renewable energy based experimental stuff. First year class, and very engaged. On top of that, one of the girls dug into SparkVue, an app I spend time explaining to 6th years and teachers, and created a beautifully well annotated set of multiple data runs, very impressed. All off her own initiative.
Absolutely delighted to join Mastodon!

Every #Walmart in the United States of America cost its community on average a million dollars per annum in subsidies for its workers since they can't pay them enough.
My 7-day Twitter suspension just ended but the last 7 days have been more than enough time to recognize the fade of Twitterβs glow. Sad to see how easily raw financial power can destroy, especially in the U.S.A. What an ungrateful immigrant Elon Musk has turned out to be!
It's time to forget about shaming Elon Musk. The whole point of his vile attack on Fauci is to Trigger The Libs. Shaming him only persuades his followers he's "drawing blood." We have to adapt to the reality that he is waging right wing information warfare.

"People want to believe that the Trump NFTs are a jump-the-shark moment. And that would be great. I'd like it to be the case. But is this any more embarrassing or self-abasing that Trump U, or Trump Steaks, or the Official Trump Card?" https://thetriad.thebulwark.com/p/about-the-trump-nfts

As an Army Veteran, this is exactly what stumps me. If we want/need our military members to be able to protect our nation at the drop of a hat, as I do, then we MUST protect them just as we protect ourselves against communicable diseases/viruses and such. To be against COVID vaccinations is reckless & seems to play into the hands of our enemies abroad & perhaps at home, and that may be the ultimate purpose for Republicans. If so, that is contrary to America's safety! Vax UP! Mask up!
BBC reports:
Earlier on today, EU commissioner Vera Jourova threatened Twitter with sanctions under Europe's new Digital Services Act which she said requires "the respect of media freedom and fundament rights".
"Elon Musk should be aware of that. There are red lines. And sanctions, soon," she added.

Just in case you weren't aware that this is a thing, and these are real books.
"Children need a mother": A common xenophobic statement directed at me & our 2-dad family.
I'm a pediatrician. I know the research. Many kids don't have a mother for a range of reasons & thrive. I have 2 healthy, happy kids.
Stop perpetuating false narratives that hurt kids.

What do you need to know about me? I'm a late-diagnosed Autistic ADHDer (She/Her). Went back to university at age 40 and I'm in my last semester of a psychology honors program. I'm especially interested in neurodivergence.
Currently researching autistic employment experiences. I strongly believe accessibility, making systems/structures/environments more accessible is a better solution than a hodgepodge of often challenging-to-access individual accommodations which require privilege to access.
Twitter was transformed into a vital tool the Black community used to amplify its collective voice to protest injustice, organize, commiserate, and spread its unique brand of tastemaking cool, humor and wit. In 2019, I wrote about how for Black people, quitting Twitter was never an easy cut-and-dry proposition as it is for those far more privileged. Revisiting this piece now is very bittersweet. #BlackMastodon #BlackTwitter
