it would certainly be nice to have those apps and I am very much looking forward to Ivory that tapbots is making but I don't think that's what holding up Mastodon migration. A number of Mastodon apps are already available including the official app.

In Russia, an ex-cop serial maniac who murdered 80 women, wants to join Wagner. He told about this in an interview with the OFFICIAL Russian TV channel.

He believes that his military specialisation is "in demand". Official media have no problem speaking to this individual.

On January 15, 1850, Russian mathematician Sofia Kovalevskaya was born. Kovalevskaya was responsible for important original contributions to analysis, partial differential equations and mechanics, and the first woman appointed to a full professorship in Northern Europe.

@irgarner the incomprehensible thing is that way too many people (including state leaders like Scholz) in the West still subscribe to the same notion too. and not just about tanks but about better weapons in general. Even US is not guiltless here. Still refusing to provide longer range missiles and planes to Ukraine for fear of “provoking” Putin.

Yes. 💔​
Many Ontarians are suffering through an awful healthcare experience right now &
Ford's #private hospitals sound like a perfect solution, especially to someone who's on a surgical waitlist.
However, #Ontario hospitals currently have Operating Rooms sitting unused due to lack of funding & lack of staff. The infrastructure is already there, Ford just needs to provide the funding and staff that would keep OR's open longer - perhaps even 24/7 to address the surgical backlog.

💯 Please *everyone* get a bivalent booster when you’re eligible. Expert immunologists suggest waiting ~6 months after a previous booster or recovery from a case of COVID —whichever happened most recently. twitter.com/DrCaliff_FDA/statu

Suppose there is a profession where there are an equal sized pool of qualified candidates in two groups - let's say "right-handed" and "left-handed" to keep the example relatively neutral. Some recruiters are unbiased and would pick right-handed candidates 50% of the time and left-handed candidates 50% of the time, but other recruiters are quite biased against left-handers and would only pick them 10% of the time, choosing right-handers 90% of the time. 1/

@ChristopherJM Good. I was dubious of Sunak's commitment to supporting Ukraine when he became PM but he is actually delivering.

Well that's definitely not good.
Ocean heat shatters record with warming equal to 5 atomic bombs exploding "every second" for a year. Researchers say it's "getting worse."

How many deaths have the “Died Suddenly” crowd actually shown to be vaccine related.

Every. Single. Time. They fear monger and Tweet out someone’s death for likes and follows and it constantly gets debunked when the actual cause of death is revealed.

(The answer is 0 BTW)
