1/20 FAA Director fired

1/21 Air Traffic Controllers hiring frozen

1/22 Aviation Safety Advisory Committee disbanded

1/28 Buyout/retirement offer sent to almost all federal employees

1/29 First mid-air collision in the US in 16 years.

They starved the function by understaffing and made them afraid for their jobs which might actually be distracting. Nevermind that there’s airports operating without ATCs because they tried to privatize and low ball the ATCs who just threw up their hands and quit.

But tell me again about how it’s due to DEI hiring. 🤦♂️

@GottaLaff Now that’s a feature I don’t want and would turn off immediately.

Apple also has a dedicated classical app, which is excellent.

Just so you know @mekkaokereke has posted about the abuse of followers only replies many times in the past. Tbh, I had no idea people did this until he posted about it. Since then I’ve been the target of it as a minority as well, although not to the same extent (likely due to my own preventative actions).

Home is here, but I’d love for the AP-AT bridge to become standard both ways so we can simply choose how we prefer our content (such as clients) rather than have to choose between platforms.

@mekkaokereke

It is often disappointing looking back at people who were trailblazers in their time only to see their deep flaws. Idolizing human beings often sets us up for disappointment.

Stop, NewsMax. You sold me already.

Bees are also fantastic pollinators and honey producers! They’re wonderful.

The wasps and I are constantly at war though. They love building those damn nasty nests everywhere. Two Yellowjacket stings over the past three years. Little bastards.

Floating just above 40. Let’s go Donny!

Maybe, just maybe corporate ownership of social media isn’t the best thing in the world, particularly when a site is controlled by a narcissistic, man baby 🫠

@0xjessel can you view replies from other instances?

@GottaLaff @HistoPol

Fuck em. I’d prefer not to give them further traffic.

@yurnidiot @noondlyt @talia_christine Wait until she finds out that was based on the Jewish Cohanim Priestly Benediction.

Can we just stop with the “indiscriminate carpet bombing” claims please. It’s strategically directed munitions at a government that uses civilian areas to protect its assets.

My synagogue was one of them. 😔

So sure, maybe Meta wants your info too, even though it can’t push you ads here, to sell whatever they scrape (which they’re perfectly capable of doing other ways too). It’s possible, despite the minute size of even Mastodon users to Threads users, even though that seems like a low benefit proposition. But maybe their embrace of the Fedi and AP isn’t to extinguish, and they may want to permanently cover their own asses while offering something for normies and creators that other big names in the space don’t.

Just my $.02. Flame away, I guess.
