I see reports of slowing growth on #Mastodon. Good. Don’t tell anyone else. Everyone here is awesome.

Except the artists. Tell them. And the scientists. And the musicians. Tell them too. And the chefs. And the space nerds. And the mountain climbers and surfers. And the farmers. Tell them. And the horticulturists. And the photographers. And the software developers. And the poets. And the astronauts. And the dancers. And..

Tell interesting people, the fediverse is where you want to be.

Finding the courage to be joyfully bad at something is more important than talent in the long run.

Yet, the the tragedy according to MSM isn't 3000 excess deaths in a single week, but the possibility that people may need to wear masks. How is this an acceptable cost? Flu, COVID & resp infections would all be reduced with FFP2/3 masks & air cleaning.

"Priorities for synthesis research in ecology and environmental science" esajournals.onlinelibrary.wile

@girls_can The Soil and Water Conservation Society formed in 1946. Planning for it began in 1941.

@girls_can Another key early work is Our Vanishing Wild Life: Its Extermination and Preservation, 1913 by William Temple Hornaday. Quite incredible foresight. I own a prized 1st Edition!

@girls_can the same protest about obscene police budget I creases we had here in Montreal is about to happen in Toronto. We’re the frogs in the fascist stew.

I really need folks to put where they are in meatspace. Like just state/province/region would be fine. Sometimes I'm like "oh this city counsel debate sounds like it could be here" and I have to google to figure out that they're in like Toronto or Essex or some such.
