OK, it's getting late, so here is the insane overreach that #Bluesky are attempting:

Not only do their Terms of Service grant them a limitless, free-for-all, forever license to all your content for using their application (Bluesky). They are taking, get this, a limitless, free for all, forever license for anything that touches their AT protocol. And they imagine a future where all social media runs on their protocol. Isn't that rich?

Most of the time I feel mournful sadness for the world we are losing, burning rage for the inaction and denial around, incredulity at the powerlessness we find ourselves in despite knowing what needs to be done; at the same time I'm hopeful that solutions exist and we just need to embrace them and leave this corrupt husk of a greedy system behind, and I also have unending love for those destined to fight on regardless.

Oh you didn't REALLY want to hear how I'm doing?

I'm fine, thanks. And you?

As you see healthcare workers and hospitals celebrating the end of mask mandates, remember that "nosocomial bloodstream infections led to a 3.4-fold increase in 90-day mortality at a hospital." And that's not just #COVID19. We KNOW that ill patients seeking care who are infected in hospitals have a MUCH higher rate of death. The question isn't, "Should we remove masks now in hospitals?" It's, "Why aren't healthcare workers masking all the time to protect patients?" https://www.jwatch.org/na54494/2022/01/13/nosocomial-bloodstream-infections-markedly-raise-death

I told a joke on a Zoom Meeting and no-one laughed.

It turns out I'm not remotely funny.
