We're hosting a talk this Tuesday on 'Global Governance for Pandemic Preparedness and Response post COVID-19' - online and open to all! https://www.lshtm.ac.uk/newsevents/events/global-governance-pandemic-preparedness-and-response-post-covid-19

#Principals #Teachers #Educators

Your #school #culture is made up of every single interaction that happens (or doesn't happen) between people throughout the day.

Your school #climate is made up of how people feel about those interactions (or lack of them).

Your words have Weight, they can bring people down.
Your words have Height, they can lift people up.
Most importantly:
Your words have Length, they last a lifetime!

Be #kind #thoughtful #intentional and #present.

@edutooters One idea that I’ve recommended to our #teachers who stress about weekends being over too quickly is to stop #planning Monday through Friday and instead make a small shift to planning Tuesdays through Mondays instead.

Sundays are a little less stressful when you're already prepped for Monday.

Binge-watched #1899netflix this weekend, and my goodness it is GREAT

Evolution doesn’t look how it’s depicted in pop culture. We often picture the famous “March of Progress” illustration where a series of apes stand in line leading to a modern human.

But evolution is not linear. It branches and branches. Divides in some places and recombines in others. #science

I don’t understand why people think Mastodon is difficult. It seems pretty straightforward, and the separate servers are no biggie. I’m enjoying this fresh start here, like moving to a new apartment!

now that our server qoto.org is (temporarily) not listed in the main mastodon website joinmastodon.org, it seems convenient to promote our server directly in the birdsite. Therefore please follow the link below and like or retweet the post, so that it will be ranked higher in the search field of the #birdsite

How freakin' cool. A #meteor was picked up by EarthCam's CN Tower webcam in #Toronto.

Several hours before it hit, David Rankin at NASA's Catalina Sky Survey spotted the object, and Michael Busch started a thread: https://mastodon.online/@michael_w_busch/109368965024525842.

As the night unfolded: https://groups.io/g/mpml/topic/c8ff042_probable_impactor/95129080

EarthCam archives about a day's worth of video, so you can still catch it here: https://www.earthcam.com/world/canada/toronto/cntower/?cam=towerview. Tap Archive, select the 3-4AM clip and scroll to the 3:25:56 mark. #astronomy #space

The German word "bitte" means "please".

Combined with other words, it means more:

Bittebitte! (expandable by as many "bitte" as you want) = Prettyplease!
Wie bitte? = Say what?
Bitteschön (literally: pleasenice) = There you are.
Bittesehr (pleasevery) = There you are.
Na, bitte! = Told you so.
Also bitte! = Stop that!
Aber bitte doch! = Go ahead!
Bitte was? = That's impossible.
WIE BITTE?! = ARE YOU F*CKING SERIOUS?!

Enjoy our language!

So it seems joinmastodon removed QOTO from their directory without cause, without contacting us, and without any discussion or due diligence.

Since this is the only way to actually find QOTO for new users if it isnt reversed soon it could mean the end for our wonderful community.

If you care about this place remaining fair, respectful, and inclusive environment I highly suggest everyone reach out to them annd voice your objecttion and your disapointment and having no procedure to keep this fair and inclusive.

If you want to see QOTO stick around you can email your objecttion here:

hello@joinmastodon.org

Feel free to CC me here: jeffrey.freeman@qoto.org

Please be respectful, we want to show them we are the good guys and not give them any reason to object.
