As a child, I was taken from my home and imprisoned without cause. Today, in Florida, it’s happening again. People are being held in cruel conditions, denied dignity and due process. We can’t look away. We can’t wait for things to get better on their own.

Please join me in calling for the immediate closure of Alligator Alcatraz by signing the petition below. Your voice could help bring this injustice to an end.

Three orange & white kittens cuddling & napping in a cage - two of them are looking at the camera 'cause the sound of taking pictures woke them up. One is sleeping soundly.

John Cormier 🇨🇦

Hi everyone! My old introduction was getting a little stale so I figured it was time to write a new one. I’m John, and I now live on the east coast of Canada. I’m a 50-something physicist who invented a laser technology to detect diseases using exhaled breath, in addition to some holographic technologies. I love R&D but the best part of my career has been mentoring promising young scientists, engineers, and founders. I have a wide variety of interests that include music, art, science, health, photography, books, reading, video games, biking, hiking, gardening, and much more. I am a lifelong feminist and ally. When I came to Mastodon from Twitter in the fall of 2022, I had no idea that I was actually autistic. If you made it this far, please wave or say hello! #introduction #actuallyautistic #physics #science #Canada #startups #founder #mentoring #books

Not only did the students discover that chatGPT is extremely wrong a lot of the time, it also lead them to realize that they should not use it as a primary source.

Calling on my #tacoma fam, can you recommend a staffing/temp agency? The work doesn't need to be exactly in the city but would prefer the recruiter to be at least Tacoma metro or the near.

#crafts #CrossStitching #pinball
1/4
In my intro I said I do cross stitching. But not just any sort of cross stitching. My dearest hobby shows in this, too.
I've made all my patterns utilising screenshots of the ColorDMD videos, as there are so, so many of them.
I make these for my own amusement and to decorate our arcade. They are on display at the hangout area by my register, so anyone can come and take a look at them.
The first one's from Monster Bash, the second from Twilight Zone, the third one from Fish Tales and the fourth from Scared Stiff.

Cross stitching, the top says Monsters and below it, Creature of the Black Lagoon is playing saxophone, Frankenstein's Monster is playing the keyboard, the Mummy on bass, the werewolf on drums, Bride of Frankenstein is singing and Dracula on guitar
Cross stitching, the top says The Twilight Zone, the middle says Lost in the Zone and below that there are a gumball machine, the white door and a pyramid
Cross stitching, the top says Fish Tales, in the middle is a man smiling very widely and he has a trophy on each of his sides, below is the same man next to a very large blue fish
Cross stitching, the top says The Stiff in the Coffin, and below that is a white coffin with a creature with red eyes pushing through it as it comes to life

Owls in Towels

Couchie the Eastern Screech Owl, an ambassador at Refugio de Jason in Panama, showed early signs of respiratory difficulty. Thanks to quick action and prompt veterinary evaluation, it was not too serious and he recovered well.
Link to donate: owlwhispererws.wixsite.com/owl #owlsintowels

Couchie the Eastern Screech Owl has one eye closed, the other half shut. He is swaddled in a taupe scarf patterned with round white irregular shapes. His head is prominent, showcasing his intricate feathering: a mottled mix of browns, tans, and hints of rust, providing excellent camouflage. Below his beak are fine hair-like rictal bristles serving a sensory function. On the scarf are some small flecks of debris, possibly straw or leaves.
Couchie is swaddled in the scarf, on his back and in the crook of a denim-sleeved elbow belonging to rehabilitator Ileana Cotes at Refugio de "Jason" in Panama.
Couchie's right foot is banded. He stands at ease inside a transparent perspex tray atop an electronic scale. The LCD is backlit in electric blue and reads 125 (presumably grams) in seven-segment digit display. Speaking of digits, Couchie's feet (and all Owls' feet for that matter) are zygodactyl, meaning having two toes facing forward and two back. The resulting ‘X’ shape, shown here on this model's pink-grey toes, is helpful for climbing and gripping tree trunks. The back outer digits can be rotated to face forward as well, a trait Owls share with Ospreys.
Couchie's health has improved and he is back to normal. His greenish grey eyes are open and alert.
