@mcnees I have a Paisley-patterned cup with a gold-painted handle that I have used for about 40 years. The gold is almost entirely worn away.

It's perfectly weighted.

And, being a Brit, I have used it for about 5 cups of tea a day. (40 x 365 x 5 is about 73,000 cups of tea over the years...)

European Research Group Loses Two-Thirds of its Paid-Up Members

The hard-Brexit lobbying group, which produces research paid for by taxpayer-funded expenses, appears to be losing support.

The research provided by ERG staff members is supposed to be non-party-political. But the group and its members have been assertive in lobbying for a hard Brexit – maintaining that Britain should sever many of its political and economic ties with the EU.

The issue isn’t entirely reinstating Trump but doing it in a flippant manner based on a twitter poll. That’s a slap in the face to researchers and civil society globally who have spent many years studying the policies and issues brought on by unaccountable social media platforms and their core biz model of amplifying microtargeted content. /2

Meet Eugen Rochko (@Gargron), founder of @Mastodon, who just got a profile in TIME magazine. I encourage you to really read the entire excellent interview, bc not only will you learn more about the ethos behind Mastodon, but you can also hear what it’s like for an intelligent human being to talk about social media.
