Seen a lotta posts about how to use CWs and such, haven't yet seen one about person-to-admin-to-server-level moderation/blocking but have seen some discussions where talking about that would clear up some confusion and worries so, here goes.

You have more power here than you did on the other place, both as an individual and as part of a collective, because of how federation works.

@Yukari I often have wild dreams like that. I had one where I had to rescue a beautiful dog that looked a bit like a Collie, who then turned into a girl. I followed the girl to a ruined church. There were three gods on one wall of the church, and they turned out to be bikers, complete with their club patches and the whole thing. So there’s that. Meaning? Dunno.

Great statement by Justin Trudeau. Our federal governments stands with workers. https://twitter.com/justintrudeau/status/1588610618793537538?s=46&t=J9LyX23JaaBFmcKUvuoylg
Justin Trudeau on Twitter

“I spoke with national union leaders this morning about the Ontario government’s inappropriate preemptive use of the notwithstanding clause, which undermines the fundamental rights and freedoms of workers. Our government stands firmly with our country’s workers.”

@YoWatShiinaEsq that’s not to say that they all are so underpaid. Many are making are CA$36,000/y, but it’s pretty hard to live on that here. #onpoli

@YoWatShiinaEsq /2 into private hands. When they’re done with this the next target is public healthcare.
RandomCanuckNov 5, 2022
@YoWatShiinaEsq you’re right, it is horrible. Many of the affected workers are paid just above minimum wage, which is CA$15.50/h, or CA$24,800/y (40h/wk, 10 months/year). They are not teachers, they are educational assistants, custodians, and support workers. The schools cannot operate safely without them. In the end, this government wants to destroy our public education system and replace it with charter schools similar to those in the USA. This is about putting public money /2

New study suggests #monkeypox outbreak may be fueled in part by pre-symptomatic transmission

New study suggests monkeypox outbreak may be fueled in part by pre-symptomatic transmission

Though people may be emitting less virus in the earlier stage of infection, when they have very mild or no discernible symptoms, they may at that time be more likely to have contact that could lead to transmission
