@georgetakei It's only 120 years since the discovery of radioactivity. So amazing.
@stevenjgibbons Not weird, lovely. You have 4 seasons. It's wonderful.
@pwinn All the instances (like @qoto.com or @mastadon.social) are highlighted in colors. Plus, sometimes the instance is actually repeated.

December 15, 1989, KLM Flight 867- a Boeing 747 jetliner carrying 231 passengers & 14 crew - on approach to Anchorage International Airport experienced loss of all 4 engines as volcanic ash from Mount Redoubt clogged the turbines 🌋✈️
Is anyone else disturbed by the highlighted instances in the Home feed? I keep reading those instead of the Toot.

In the south of Burkina Faso lies a small village called Tiébélé. It's home to the Kassena people; one of the oldest ethnic groups that settled in the region in the 15th century.
Tiébélé is known for their amazing traditional Gurunsi architecture and elaborately decorated walls of their homes.
Dating back to the 16th century, wall decorating has always been a community project done by the women.

@TheConversationUS @flipboard Really, you need to make clear that this is a problem in Theravada Buddism, but not it Mahayana and Tibetan Buddhism. *smh* at the lack of differentiation.

Free covid tests by mail
I know, the content warning sounds like a spam email header, but the White House will soon be reviving their free at-home COVID testing program.
https://www.politico.com/news/2022/12/14/free-covid-home-test-program-restart-00073962
Starting tomorrow, you should be able to request tests via UPS from https://www.covid.gov/tests
In the meantime, people in limited areas including Seattle are be eligible for another free tests-by-mail program.
Another domain that looks like a spam site, but I've used https://www.sayyescovidhometest.org/ repeatedly.

I miss the naive old days when Bill Gates was the worst billionaire we could imagine
