Hey everyone ππ» new #introduction

We've flown the coup and are now fully active on Mastodon! Come engage with us.
Elon is trying to say what Iβm posting isnβt public information.
ADS-B and ACARS are all over public frequency and are acquired by organizations like ADSBExchange.
This is like saying AM or FM signals arenβt public and that reciciving a frequency is private.
Aviation enthusiasts have been reciciving this information over the air for atleast a decade now. Even companies like FlightAware and FlightRadar24 rely on hobbyists to receive this data.
For nearly a quarter of a century I have been studying Earth's #climate history, hoping that providing natural records to contrast with abrupt #AnthropogenicClimateChange would cause action. It hasn't. Nothing has. During this quarter century, the work of me and many, many others has largely been ignored because we didn't want to change the way we live. We live on the crest of a wave of #TechnologicalProgress, and we just can't fathom living in harmony with our planet.

Aida Rostami was a doctor who treated protesters until she was tortured and murdered by Iranian officials.
Dec 12, after taking care of several wounded protesters in Ekbatan, Aida left a protesterβs house to get medical supplies and was never seen alive again. Officials told her family to pick up her tortured body a day later. Just like that.
She was 36.
This is the face of theocracy. We must all fight to keep religion out of our respective governments. Or else.

Dear white friends: It's Black Friday when Black Mastodon celebrates its cultural heritage.
Follow the hashtag periodically today. I've already enjoyed music I haven't heard since I was a teenager; I've also seen some great artwork and bookmarked some reading material.
Expand your world with #BlackFriday every week. Boost Black and BIPOC voices as you do so.
And follow @BlackAzizAnansi who's made a great start increasing Mastodon's cultural diversity.
@ScottSoCal I completely get that. Especially living here in deep Red Texas. I always try to keep my work life and my social media life separate. Not only is it necessary for my mental health but my possible physical well-being as well.
This holiday season remember that the cancelled child tax creditβwhich slashed childhood poverty by 30%βwould've cost only $1.7T over the next decade, while the ever expanding Defense Budget will cost around $9T over the next decade.
Children are suffering and starving now because corporate bought politicians would rather by bombs than bread.
We can thank GOP & Manchin/Sinema for this cruelty and grotesquely misplaced priorities. A reminder that our standard must be justice above all else.
Love letter to #Mastodon:
Itβs weird how the brain (well, mine anyway) got so used to associating social media to doomscrolling, that coming here almost like a warm blanket on my brain.
I open this app and find incredibly smart, witty and empathetic folks who find each other by searching hashtags. What a concept!

So almost 24 hours on Mastodon and I'm thoroughly enjoying it. Excited to have almost 100 followers 
Bluebird had become so unpleasant.
There are great people on there, but it's getting through the boatloads of bots or RWNJ's that was it's downfall.
I would liken it it to Andy in #ShawshankRedemption crawling through hundreds of feet of raw sewage to get out to the blessed rain outside. #freefromtwitter
Read this, oh...and get a hanky.
I have the game too, and now I can't wait to find all the hearts with their initials in them.π’
Hey,
Thank you for boosting other peopleβs posts so generously! So much good stuff. I have a great home feed! πππ
β‘οΈ Thereβs no AI/algorithm. Itβs up to us to boost! π
β‘οΈ Keep in mind to also boost #BlackMastodon, #Indigenous, and #PoC (People of Colour) posts. Make an effort to follow people with different experiences and backgrounds. (If you feel uncomfortable, sit with it, read, learn.)
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.
