@skinnylatte I would love to do this! I'm in Australia so I'd have to figure out the right time.

I keep reading the same thing in article after article about #charliekirk — "all of us were forced to see the horrible video on #SocialMedia whether we wanted to or not".

Not to be too smug about it but no, not all of us, right? Because I'm on #Mastodon I didn't get auto-playing videos of Kirk's shooting brought to me by an algorithm which decided it was "popular".

@ATLeagle @rupert @log @Lana Every journey starts with a single step. Post some more content and tag it!

As written, that would seem to go against the laws of physics. I must be missing something. Where does the extra matter come from?

@mattblaze Charming of you to assume that all the attendees were motivated to HELP with US election vulnerabilities…

@xgranade Wait, arms dealing?!?

A Yum-charmer, if you will.

@PhoenixSerenity @sand @SRDas Drive through as in, they bring the alcohol to your car window, you don't have to get out?

No option for 'zero'? Check your clothes-owning privilege!

@goatsarah Oh I get it now, thanks. Post-medicated as in, the part of each day when the meds wear off—not the part of your life after you started taking the meds.

@goatsarah I'm finding this a little confusing, sorry. You used to feel that way all the time, then you started the meds, but it hasn't helped?

Washington State Park created this playlist for those people:

Why do we think it's blatantly AI?

Just in case anyone had missed it, the title of the new book about #Facebook / #Meta is “Careless People” because of this line in “The Great Gatsby”.

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Hi, #Today I decided to try to #getfedihired — I've got many years of experience with web development, programming and production (#HTML, #CSS, #Javascript), I can make myself useful in anything on the open-source side of back end, i.e. the #Perl, #Python, #PHP, #MySQL, #Linux kind of area.

I live in #Sydney Australia and would be happy to work in-office, remote or hybrid.

Let me know of any opportunities, or pass this on to anyone else who might know of something? Thanks.

What if I asked you to draw an apple? Could you do that?

@Lana
They introduced DEI practices in orchestras, because they believed male musicians were getting chosen over female musicians due to bias.

Everyone performed their auditions blind, behind a screen.

This … didn't work. Male musicians still got chosen over similar or better female musicians.

Because of shoes.

The panel were hearing female footwear sounds on the stage as the auditioners walked out behind the screen.

Once they eliminated that problem by having everyone wear sneakers, it turned out that "merit" included a way higher percentage of female musicians.

How about a Trust, like the Guardian has?

@the_etrain At least one Upper Nile character, one Lower Nile character and one special deity.
