In Japan, if a tree is in the middle of a road under construction, they dig and encapsulate its roots and replant it elsewhere. 🇯🇵 🌳#Trees 💚 #Nature #Respect

Still cracks me up when 17 refers to her monthly visitor as "Shark Attack"... in case you're wondering where she gets her demented sense of humor.

There is nothing strategic about the "Strategic Production Response Act" when it comes to helping working families.

In reality, its only "strategy" is to help out the GOP’s fossil fuel friends, who already receive billions of dollars in taxpayer-funded subsidies.

Kibble AND Bits? In this economy?

I don’t know if it’s just my experience, or more general too, but I’m noticing more journalists on #Mastodon posting breaking news. Which is a very good sign for the future of the platform.

I’m genuinely at the end of my patience with Twitter.

I have literally had a Law and Order episode made about harassment targeted at me on Twitter. My tolerance for it is extremely high. But something has changed about the character since Elon took it over.

The level of trolls are out of control. Every conversation is toxic. And it’s changing me in ways I don’t like.

I need to dedicate more time to Mastadon.

I activated my Facebook to reconnect with old friends after disappearing for years and my god that is the saddest website. The vibe is like those rows of old folks playing slot machines.

BREAKING: Classified documents not found at the home of Ina Garten but investigators did find roast chicken and potatoes for Jeffrey, how fabulous is that?

I must say I find the general journalist reaction (especially in Europe) to Musk banning a bunch of journalists to be a bit disappointing

It's sort of "oooh look there's an attack on journalism, that's wrong, but we'll keep using Twitter because we think there's no other option"

No. A social network that can ban or censor at a whim *is a central challenge to fair reporting*

Help build up alternatives *without* that central flaw!

Truth

Is it me, or does it feel like all the Fortune 500 corporations are demanding that we head into recession? I mean, they raised the price of everything and that didn't do it. Now they're laying off 10's of thousands while huge profits roll in.

Friends are getting burned out because corp stopped hiring and the work is still there. They would rather tank the economy then pay their workers more. Yay! Unchecked capitalism. ​

I got a little overwhelmed when that ISS lunar transit went semi-viral.

If you follow me (and have at least a minimal profile page) and I haven’t followed you back, just like this post and I’ll get on it.

Oh, and here’s a picture of Comet E3 I took last week.
