Welcome to the new users who have decided to give mastodon a try. Also thanks for choosing genomic social. I don't get anything out of this other than the satisfaction of providing a service and potentially an alternative to twitter. An alternative that doesn't have ads and doesn't try to manipulate you with an algorithm to farm your engagement.

Have fun, start following (this is how you kick start your feed), and be kind.

I'm joining the Central Ohio Heart Walk taking place this Saturday, and I've set my goal at $250. I need your help because more money raised means more moms, dads, brothers, aunts, and babies' lives saved. Even the smallest donation can make a big difference. Please consider making a donation to support the cause!

Reading my academic spam like they are a daily pep talk

Before folks start railing on open source - let’s not forget there are plenty of examples of undocumented backdoors in proprietary commercial products too, the Boeing 737 Max 9 for example
