UPDATE: Remember the ASU scholar who harassed and berated a Muslim woman?

@asu President Michael Crow has banned Jonathan Yudelman from ASU permanently saying, he “is no longer permitted to be on campus & will never teach here again.”

Well done to ASU for standing up against hate, bigotry, misogyny, and Islamophobia! ❤️✊🏽

From Jared Kushner to Salt Bae: Here’s who Elon Musk was seen with at the World Cup

Earlier today Elon Musk said that my ban was temporary, 45 min later he denied my appeal to reinstate my account and confirmed that I am *permanently* banned. The email I just received says the decision cannot be reversed.
I have never once violated Twitters rules or terms of service. I’ve never had a single tweet flagged, my account was permanently banned with no warning and with no reason, after I reached out to Musk for comment.

It's interesting to see friends posting on Facebook that they've left Twitter. In terms of societal reach and negative effects, Facebook (and Instagram) have been far more problematic than Twitter. But because Zuck has kept his megalomania in check and actually invested in a few reasonably serious structures for handling the hardest content moderation decisions, people don't mind the lukewarm water bath of Facebook. Whereas with Twitter the frogs are jumping out of the boiling water, as they do.

#FediTip #FediTips If you're not reading the alt text on posted images, you're really missing out. Some of them are quite good and add more detail to the toot itself.

Remember to add them to your own toots as well!

A #FediTip I’m just now starting to understand..and it’s so cool! Last week, I created a #PixelFed account (OpenSource Instagram replacement). I can go into any #Mastodon app and follow any Pixelfed account, and see it’s posting activity in my feed!

It works in the reverse as well. I can follow any Masto account on Pixelfed. It’s like being able to follow Facebook, Instagram and Twitter favorites all in one place. Sweet!

It is remarkable -- remarkably depressing -- how slow news media organizations are on taking up Mastodon, especially after Musk's attacks on reporters this week. Get with it, people!

It would absolutely wonderful if news outlets hosted their own Mastodon instances. A few news orgs that have done that: @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] And several others that have created official Mastodon accounts on general instances: @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] @[email protected] Not sure if this one is official: @[email protected] If anyone knows of any others, please let me know. #News #FollowFriday
