Does it need to be a phone call? Can you just email someone and let them sort it out in their own time? If so do that! #cartoon #cartoons #comic #comics #instacomic #instacartoon #academia #science #research #errantscience
I’d been hearing about the coal-mine protests in Germany, but this photo by Sean Gallup is the first that gave me a real sense of the titanic size of the thing and what’s being protested. Just… unreal.
My favourite part of every "In our time" episode is the end where the producer comes in to the recording studio: "Would anyone like a cup of tea?"
My second favourite part is where I go and make cup of tea for myself!

This is a really, really nice base stylesheet with excellent typography (at least in the serif and monospace families) and markup considerations. https://edwardtufte.github.io/tufte-css/
Setting up my out of office reply! I think something along the line of "Not even Telstra will be able to contact me where I'm going. Good luck!"
why do I need a separate editorialmanager.com account for each journal? It's great that I can link with ORCiD but Arrgh!
This is the best Downfall video ever. A live look at Elon Musk's war room.

The reason Mastodon and the Fediverse is spread out on so many servers is it protects it from being taken over by anyone. Not even the richest can buy this place.
Centralised services like Twitter are incredibly easy to buy out. If you move from Twitter to another centralised service, sooner or later that will get bought out too.
The point of the Fediverse is to break this buyout cycle, to let people be permanently in control of their accounts. More info here:
replace "at Cornell" with "in the Basement" (and "tunneling" with "transmission") and this would express how I'm currently feeling about twitter.
First toot! 😜 and happy to be here!
It's like there's a tweet for everything he does. I love this.
So I understand that the bird site has started blocking links to common/known Mastodon instances, and that doesn't seem like free speech to me. So... I did a thing.
If you go to https://spacekaren.sucks it is now a URL shortener that blocks the twitter user agent. That means you can share that link that will redirect to your Mastodon account without the pouty baby stopping you. If you find this helpful can you boost so others can find it? #TwitterMigration #Mastodon #Musk #introduction
