Probably the most useful thing here going forward would be for this to work and for everyone get that Trump is really the Speaker.

Angry grandpa just walked over to the kids table, told Cousin Matt to stop shooting milk out of his nose, gave Cousin Andy a smack upside the head and menacingly yelled yet another warning about putting boogers on other kids plates when they're not looking, and pointed over at Cousin Marjorie (who had a pea shooter hidden under her folded hands on her lap) as a positive example they should all follow.

attempting to understand mastodon as a newbie. used to be on twitter as @SeymourStrange
if anyone wants to follow me or stuff -
I am interested in Scottish independence, satire, good humour, furry animals and philosophical musings.

I am anti-Tory and pro-trans/LGBTI so if that offends you please leave me alone.

The GOP extremists now sabotaging and humiliating their own party are sending a message: When it comes time to fund the government, to provide for the basic well-being of the nation, they will sabotage and humiliate their own country.

Hi I’m Chris. I’ve wandered to spend time with remote communities in the Amazon, spent time with the Hadza in Tanzania and have visited every continent apart from Antarctica.

I love spending time in the #mountains and #camping in the woods, generally being #outdoors.

I started #running Couch to 5k, about a year ago, and kept going to 50k. Now I have 5 #Ultramarathons booked for next year. 🤦‍♂️

I’ve been paid for taking #photos, but that’s on hold while I get settled into my new home, #Dundee.

A quick reminder that law enforcement *responds* to crime, but a living wage, food and water security, accessible healthcare, and public education *prevent* crime.

If you want safer communities, invest in people, not punishments.

Hey friends - I am in Antarctica with extremely slow and limited internet and I have a book coming out this year that I'd normally be posting more about because pre-orders are *critical* to a book's success.

Help me get the word out?

OUT THERE: THE SCIENCE BEHIND SCI-FI FILM AND TV

From black holes to space elevators and extraterrestrial civilizations, this is a rich and beautifully illustrated book for your coffee table. And astronaut Mae Jemison wrote the Foreword!

The Wilson Cycle Illustration

A much better picture of the Wilson Cycle with a volcanic island arc and double subduction for your enjoyment. All the details are beautifully labelled. Gorgeous work, and the Wilson cycle still fits.

Remember, Kevin McCarthy lost his bid for Speaker in 2015 after admitting publicly that the sole purpose of the Benghazi Select Committee was to hurt Hillary Clinton's election chances.

He's always been too stupid to lead.

Dr. Trudy, just wanted to mention that I really appreciate the work you do here by boosting interesting people in the sciences and elsewhere. My "following" list has been enhanced and enriched quite a bit by your pre-selection process. Found yet another great follow just now because you pushed them forward out of the rumbling heap where I could see 'em.

I think a newcomer could do quite well by just following you and the ubiquitous Don Melton as a starter kit. 😉 Y'all have good taste!

Hi there, posting my #intro in the last day of 2022. Looking forward to a growing #twittermigration and more useful social media in 2023.

I'm a #bioinformatics scientist at TRON in Mainz, Germany, a private non profit #Translational #research institute.

I use mastodon strictly for my professional life, but I post my own views and opinions.

Three conspiracy theorists walk into a bar.
You can't tell me that's just a coincidence!

So I pop onto Amazon to check the delivery estimate for something I'm waiting on, and they have a big section on the page labeled "Deals based on your views." So, they have a sale on Marcus Aurelius or something?
