"#Jeers and #cheers" represent opposite reactions, with jeers acting as taunts, mocks, or boos and cheers serving as shouts of praise, approval, or thanks. Often used in public commentary, jeers reflect mockery (like reacting to a poor performance in sport or recent news, misconduct at solemn events), while cheers celebrate success, such as winning a game or play, athletic feats, or the usage for "thank you" or "goodbye".

(*the two sound identical 😬)

#CheersAndJeers, Saturday edition!
#Cheers to @debcha whose How Infrastructure Works I just finished - brilliant, compelling page-turner about, um, infrastructure
H/T to @pluralistic , whose glowing review put me onto it
#Jeers to the #Ransomware #JerkFaces whose attack on the Seattle Public Library system is preventing me from returning & allowing someone else to enjoy it. Boo! Hiss!

If you are still on the former Twitter, this is not an implicit condemnation of you.

Yup, Done With the Former Twitter | Whatever

I love John Scalzi, but I don’t always agree with him.

If you are still on Twitter, I condemn you.

At best, you are a coward.

At best.

#Jeers to #Iceland for resuming its gruesome killing of fin and minke whales after reversing a temporary ban. See how you can #takeaction and let the Icelandic Tourist Board know you won’t step foot on the island until whale killing ends: https://friendsofanimals.org/boycott-bloody-iceland/ Be #Vegan
