Today, the House is voting on bills to strip away DC’s rights (H.R. 5143 & 5125). This isn’t about safety, but an attempt to undermine autonomy from DC.

I’ve just been verified by Aral and Joy through a lovely video call on Signal.

I’m grateful to have my name added to the Verified Gaza List and I truly hope to reach my goal of $1,500 to buy tents for myself and my family to shelter us from the coming winter cold.

This morning I went to Google News.

🟢 Found a story from CNN.

🟢 Tapped on the three dots beside the story.

🟢 Tapped on “Hide all stories from CNN.”

Easy!

Now I’m recommending you do the same on whatever news platform you use. Let there be consequences for giving a platform to a wannabe dictator.

This week, Science published a stunningly irresponsible news story entitled "Fake scientific papers are alarmingly common" and claiming that upward of 30% of the scientific literature is fake.

Below, the first two paragraphs of the story.

Headline and intro notwithstanding, the story itself later notes that the detector doesn't actually work and flags nearly half of real papers as fake. Does the reporter just not understand that?

Fake scientific papers are alarmingly common

But new tools show promise in tackling growing symptom of academia’s “publish or perish” culture

With the end of the Public Health Emergency, the CDC has removed the #COVID transmission map from their website.

This is how you manufacture the disappearance of a pandemic.

I think Mastodon people should use the "like" button more.

People are told not to like because liking doesn't broadcast posts like boosting does, and the site needs boosts. And replies are preferred because they're deeper engagement or something.

But, on some level, we want people to keep using Mastodon. If someone posts something and followers like it, they know stuff is getting seen here and they'll want to keep using the site. I just don't see what's gained by holding back on the likes
