In the past 24 hours, Ukrainians have been been blocked from signing up for Twitter using their phone numbers and using 2FA and accounts tracking Russian oligarchs' jets have been suspended.

What happens on Twitter can seem like a sideshow, but Elon Musk's actions are a direct threat to democracy.

I don't usually watch or recommend videos, but this one was worth the 12 minutes — even though I've already followed Covid news pretty carefully.

From cardiologist Dr. Rae Duncan: "I've seen the inner linings of people's blood vessels, I've seen the torn endothelium. That's after 1 or 2 infections. I have no idea what their blood's going to look like after 10 reinfections."

This also gels well with my group's research:

"#Mastodon’s traffic increased by 1.4 million in November, a 588% increase in just a month, figures show...going from 1.4 million to 9.5 million in just a month as the ongoing Elon Musk Twitter overhaul sees users and advertisers seek alternative platforms.

Google Trends data also reveals that worldwide searches for ‘Twitter alternative’ soared 504 per cent in November to an all-time high."

It looks like The NY Times staff walkout will be going through tomorrow, so reminder that a digital picket line (which includes all NYT platforms and products) is still a picket line. Don’t cross it—break your word game streak for workers’ rights!

You can also write in directly to let them know you support giving their workers a fair contract.

Last time I posted a bread pic, I got the best response ever. This is the nicest loaf I’ve made in a long time as I just didn’t get to bake much this year. Can’t wait to cut it in half. #Sourdough #bread #baker

Split my #StarTrek “Voyage Home” rewatch over two nights—the adventure continues!

Our heroes are hardly being inconspicuous. There’s the helicopter, to start. A massive plexiglass panel disappearing in mid-air. Broad daylight. Golden Gate Park (third most-visited park in the US).

I love that we get (almost) an entire movie in which the “hero ship” is a rusty Klingon cruiser. Makes the reveal of NCC-1701-A that much sweeter.

More than one #geography #PhD student working with me has expressed the desire to communicate their research in a #comic or #graphicnovel format, but it's hard to know where to start and there are few examples in our field. I love this #openaccess article and hope to see more like it.
