As always, Wile E. Coyote’s plan had unexpected consequences.

In case you were unaware, RT, aka Russia Today, is the propaganda arm of Putin’s authoritarian government. They appear to have an Instance on Mastodon. I’ve blocked them. You may want to share this information and block them too.

I'm having sort of a Santa Clarita Diet day, today.

"I know you're worried that I'm going to kill someone, but look at all the people I *haven't* killed! Literally everyone in the world, except three people."

What. A. SHAME. Looks like #Missouri AG Fascist Bailey had to take down his little nazi report form!

You know about binary, at least a little. Its a numbering system. The one you know best is the base ten system. You count up to ten, and that becomes a group called ten, two are called twenty, etc. Binary counts to two. One, ten, eleven, "a hundred" (its not called a hundred) 1, 10, 11, 100, 101, 110, 111, 1000

Some inuit kids invented a written system for the ancient inuit base 20 numbering system.

@ScottSoCal Ugh. That's so sad. You can't see, but there is also brown mesh, mixed in with the green, from when they originally put sod in, I think.

We're working to return a lawn, put in by previous owners, to meadow/wildflowers. In the process, this is what we dug up, a whole mess of plastic. Please tell me people don't still do this. #SaveThePlanet #Microplastics

I love seeing AOC dunking on shitheads as much as the next guy, but can we please stop treating it as some kind of victory? It’s not. It’s just words. Bills becoming laws which protect vulnerable people, now that’s worth celebrating. More of that, please. Otherwise, no matter how satisfying the clapback it’s still just talk.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' extreme 6-week abortion ban requires rape victims to provide documentation of the rape. Governor DeSantis doesn't understand that rape victims need help, not hurdles.

I've been disgusted by the lack of professional solidarity among journalists ever since Musk bought Twitter. As Musk bans journalists one-by-one, their colleagues stay on Twitter, tweeting out their work, hoping that they'll survive the next round.

Mmm... still looking for a job as a one year junior sysadmin-DevOps...

Common Sleeping Pill Could Slow or Stop Alzheimer’s Disease

poor sleep is linked to higher levels of both amyloid and tau in the brain. The question remains as to whether good sleep has the opposite effect β€” a reduction in amyloid and tau levels, and a halt in or reversal of the progress of Alzheimer’s disease β€” but mouse studies with orexin inhibitors have been promising.
