Hi all - I abandoned the other place in November, but didn't post an #Introduction. Here it is.

#Boro supporting Northerner exiled on the South Coast of England.

Interested in the #FermiParadox, the cosmological #DistanceLadder, the relation between #Science and #ScienceFiction - and have written books on these and other subjects.

Fascinated to see if #EdTech can improve learning, particularly for #Physics and #Maths students.

What else? I have a BIG collection of #Asimov books!

Happy to share the first article building on our GEM-STEP project. This was a blast to write, and the whole special issue in the Journal of Applied Instructional Design (JAID) is quite interesting.

Hello Mastodon, I'm a journalist based in Reno. I write about water, public land, wildlife, energy and other environmental issues in Nevada and the West.💧 🏔️ 🏜️

I'm passionate about journalism, particularly on the local/statewide level, and I strongly believe in the need for an independent and open press.

I plan to use this account to share my reporting (articles, photos, documents, etc...), work I admire, and perspectives from across my beat.

We're giving you the chance to win a glorious new collection of Grimms' Fairy Tales!

With beautiful full-colour illustrations, fun rhyming text and even a textured foil cover, this really is a book to treasure: https://www.booktrust.org.uk/books-and-reading/have-some-fun/competitions/win-this-beautiful-collection-of-grimms-fairy-tales/

There were three men came out of the West
Three kings both great and high
And they have sworn a solemn oath
John Mastodon must die.

They took a tank and ran him down
With bullets in his head
And they have sworn a solemn oath
John Mastodon was dead

But when the Spring came kindly on
And showers began to fall
John Mastodon got up again
And did surprise them all...

I guess I should re-introduce myself. I'm Christine Lemmer-Webber, I'm co-author of the ActivityPub specification by which you are probably reading this message right now.

I'm also CTO of @spritelyinst https://spritely.institute where we're a 100% FOSS nonprofit building the next generation of decentralized networked technology for communities. It's cool shit.

Chief cassandra complex haver of the internet. I like lisps and programming in them. Etc etc etc.

I'm also a queer translady. Don't forget that the queers largely built this place.

School Library Journal's Best Graphic Novels of 2022 list is live!
https://www.slj.com/story/best-graphic-novels-2022-slj-best-books
These lists involve a *lot* of reading nominees, discussing what to keep and cut in writing and meetings, distilling books into annotations...
I'm proud of our group and the work we did, is what I'm saying.
