Cleaned out a file cabinet. Got rid of giant piles of paper from when we were desperately trying to qualify for state and federal assistance. Entire reams of documentation, representing countless hours of determination, stress, humiliation, worry.

People who think #covid is no big deal, that if they do become #disabled there will be systems to support them, that their needs will be met...

You have no fucking idea what you're in for.

I hope you don't find out. But you probably will.

I’ve deactivated my Twitter. I’m really struggling right now and would appreciate it if any of my old Twitter friends on here could talk to me? If anyone actually sees this, which seems unlikely. Thank you 🙏

I've been so worried about my lens having a fungus or haze problem, and it's nice to have the sharpness that made me want the lens in the first place back!!

Whoa! 🤩
Über Frankreich (genauer Le Havre) ist heute in der Nacht ein Asteroid verglüht. Das bisher beste Foto, das ich gesehen habe ist von Gijs de Reijke auf Twitter: https://twitter.com/GijsDeReijke/status/1625005582800281603

The pleasure of getting to know your local patch over many years - watching the creases and hollows in the landscape change through seasons, storms and changing light. Late afternoon light today on pines growing in a hollow, on the edge of Ilkley Moor.

Mini Popehat Signal: this is a long shot, but looking for a lawyer familiar with laws governing discipline of public school teachers in NC who might be able to offer some pro bono advice and guidance to a teacher there.

March 15 is the day people leave Twitter.

The abandonment of Twitter in the Musk era has, for now, been inconsistent and chaotic, with people leaving at different times and for different reasons.

An organized effort to promote a "Leave Twitter" day, when everyone still reluctantly there logs off for the last time, with enough advance to line up alternate sites, should help get people out.

Thus, March 15. The Ides of Musk. Spread the word.

Earth's human population recently reached 8 billion people.

Here's where they live.

Hah! I just noticed that someone translated the mastodon UI to #esperanto

It is truly wonderful what geeks produce when you give them an open API, and a platform that welcomes contributions.

I've since left twitter in response to Elon Musk's repeated attacks on public health and his repeated endorsement of medical disinformation. My account is locked and people can no longer see the original thread unless they followed me before I left.

In light of the Times story, I think it's important for people to see the original thread in full. I've therefore made a pdf available here:

Feel free to cross-post that link to twitter if you still indulge.
