“This is the first study suggesting that bee decline is a global process, and that the most significant changes have occurred in recent years.”

@ErikaDesign Even if you just love science or want to be surrounded by science people you would be welcome here. No topic restrictions

Ah oops? Explains why not many ppl with same interests to me here. I wonder how I got here then? I only followed a link from an journalist article explaining this new world, didn’t even know there were ‘instances’ when I signed up. Well I suppose my amateur biologist and inherent drive to learn is a bit of link ☺️

@freemo question, because you don’t seem to mind 🙈
What does it mean/is happening when an image doesn’t load but shows an exclamation mark in the middle? It doesn’t show the “hidden” option. Is that an image removed after posting or something? (Trying to trawl for other sculptors and seen it a few times now)

Hey #mastodon, what are some nice people / accounts i can follow? Looking for #comrades.

How to avoid drama on the fediverse (part 2):

Stop and think before you reply:
- Does this conversation benefit from my input?
- Am I the best person to speak on this topic?
- Do I have a full understanding of what's being said?
- Is that *really* what's being said right now?
- Do I know and/or understand where the OP is coming from?

If you answer "no" to any of these questions, shhhh.

For the new folks on Mastodon, here are the various ways you can discover new people on here to talk to!

Please boost :)

I ran out of space for searchable hashtags in my previous post 😂 trying it this way.

Random question, hoping for interaction ☺️
Do any of you have specific dreams (nightmares) when they are extra stressed.
Due to some life crap combining at the moment I am quite stressed. And I’ve noticed that my reoccurring nightmare always is the same: “I’m back to being a first timer high school student- 12/13. And I have to navigate all these classrooms and new schedules in this humongous building. New teachers, tall older kids. The room numbers are always in the hundreds, I’m always late”

To help some of the newcomers make connections: name 5-7 things that interest as tags so they are searchable. Then boost this post or repeat its instructions so others know to do the same. Add to the post.















Found a clementine while tidying earlier. Wondered how it got behind the chair 🙄🙈


Currently owned by an opinionated cross and 50 guppies, but dream of my own . I’m a fulltime multidisciplinary , , . Hungry for new ; perpetually curious. Hoarder of and and . I read all sorts, news hoover. I’m Dutch but live in the U.K. area. Don’t talk to me about unless you want to discuss or or . Many more sides to me: just ask

Ah, so you can’t edit toots either 🙊
Better pay more attention then!

Sharing an oldy sculpture of mine. Alas the title temporarily escapes me. Something like “invading&escaping”.

Also this instance timeline doesn't have enough pangolins on it:

political 

Holy moly. I thought this platform was supposed to be the anti nazi opponent? Within 2 hours of signing up- 4 clicks into a #- I’m confronted with an extreme vocal white supremacy tooter. A barrage of anti otherist-whites are under attack- type toots. This is just part of one example. Frankly I’m shocked.
What is the mastodon etiquette of what is/isn’t allowed? What sort of things warrent reporting? I see the report option is there, but I don’t want to faux par on my first day here.

Soooo at the moment I can only login via the profile settings in the confirmation email. (Which I’m sure will become tiresome after some years) And not via the app icon. Anyone have any suggestions as to what I’m doing wrong? What are instances?

If you want to read about anything interesting this weekend, then please let it be the concept of the Water Footprint. What is it? Read it on the website of the Water Footprint Network: waterfootprint.org/en/water-fo

Arjen was an amazing man, with whom you could have incredibly energetic and joyful conversations. He was somehow everything in one person. The water professor, the activist, the organiser, the teacher, the inspiration and the action.

I really don’t need another time consuming app 😂
