Big Social not only enables harassment, their so-called "relevancy" algorithms throw gasoline on the fire.

Take the case of Annie Bonelli, a teenager on TikTok, who happens to have a facial scar.

Relentless trolls mock her trauma, demanding an explanation.

Annie owes people no explanation!

We need to build a better, human-focused alternative to TikTok.

We need a better future than a proprietary black box that thrives on uninformed outrage!

“Rolls-Royce could be a part of that ambitious spaceflight future. The venerable company released an early-stage design of a micro-nuclear reactor on Friday (Jan. 27), in the wake of a 2021 agreement with the United Kingdom Space Agency to study future nuclear power options in space exploration.”

As we plan to send @NASA_Astronauts to the Moon in preparation for one day going to Mars, we need to learn how extended durations in space change the human body.

I am so God damn pissed off with the corruption, the constant whining about problems that aren't, the pretending our problems are not what they are, the pervasive gullible ignorance brought on by that orange jackass and others, and God damn doing nothing about it from sea to shiny fucking sea! And along with my other problems, albeit personal, I am looking forward to death! I don't want any part of what's coming, and rest assured, it's fucking coming!

We also know of wandering exoplanets. These so-called rogues are untethered to any stars. Understanding them means better understanding planetary formation.

Ron DeSantis Has Questions About Your Daughter's Tampon https://www.wonkette.com/ron-desantis-has-questions-about-your-daughter-s-tampon

Florida has raided public health employees for doing their job, stripped corporations of their rights for dissenting views, banned all books and threatened teachers with felonies, removed elected officials, asked for liberal students to be placed on a list, asked for children’s menstrual records

…and now removed the liberal New College president and installed one loyal to DeSantis

Time to call republicans what they are: fascists.

When you forget the salad dressing for your lunch and look at the acetic acid in the chemical cabinet longingly

There is a crisis abrewing this morning on melon dot com, as the right-wing idiorati are having meltdowns due to broken behavior by the app (their own broken behavior a matter for another time).

In response, the owner of the company has…wait for it…locked his own account to test (something something). Totally normal way to debug and troubleshoot! Tech media, please cover this. Lol.
