That said, she understands her limitations really well, seeming eager to surround herself with vibrant people who when given the option make terrific choices.
I do wonder if that's an indication of how she will govern as President. Obama was also a bright and optimistic campaigner but was a very mainstream president, surrounding himself with traditional corporate and trigger-happy democrat advisors.

Just travelled with “Transavia”, which I found out afterwards is basically KLM/Air France (which is an airline I try to avoid) trying to do a Ryanair impression, and getting pretty much nothing right.

never understand the myriad stories i hear about people ending their years-long vegetarianism because they accidentally ate a speck of meat. you know there’s no governing body that will disqualify you and take away your vegetarian badge, right? you can just make mistakes and that’s ok

@Whimsywithstyle Welcome!

One nifty thing here is that you can 'follow' hashtags. That's one way to keep seeing people posting about something that interests you, then you can check their profiles and follow more people. The hashtag for tips is #FediTips.

When I started I put some effort into finding a couple hundred people to follow, and that gave me a full enough feed, and I keep following new people as well.

These lists are a bit old, but hopefully still useful. https://github.com/nathanlesage/academics-on-mastodon

Egypt on Monday denounced Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir for a call to build a synagogue inside Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied East Jerusalem, saying his statement is heightening tension in the occupied Palestinian territories.

In a statement, the Egyptian Foreign Ministry said Israel is legally responsible for adhering to the status quo at the Al-Aqsa Mosque and preserving Islamic and Christian sanctities.

🔗 The Changing Composition of Disability among America’s Workers https://www.stlouisfed.org/on-the-economy/2024/aug/changing-composition-of-disability-among-workers?s=09

> Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, employment among people with a disability has increased. In particular, the employment-population ratio (E-P ratio) among individuals with a disability ages 16 to 64 increased by 6.2 percentage points between 2019 and 2024.

> The population reporting only a cognitive disability has grown substantially, by roughly 1 million, or 43%, since 2019. The growth of this category is quite significant considering the average annual growth from 2014 through 2019 was just 28,000.

Unlike many of the missions in New Mexico, St. Joseph Apache Mission in Mescalero was a labor of love, built as a gift to the Mescalero Apache over the course of two decades by one of the last frontier priests in New Mexico, Father Albert Braun. The small crew of Franciscan priests and Mescalero Apache volunteers used primitive tools to dig the foundation, which is seven feet deep in some areas.
