I'm in the process of switching away from this "drink from the firehose" instance that I joined 4 years ago. Soon, I'll be @[email protected] where I've already joined my instance's Patreon to support it. I appreciate not being 100% the product and want to keep it that way.
@TindrasGrove Riiiight???
#Spoonie friends, hold my hand and give me strength! Today was my final ebike-through-a-drive-thru treat day before my annual Social Hibernation starts. Took my KFC to the park and a 7 yo had some questions about my envomask. He backed up immediately to 6', so I was patient with the kid. Partway through walking away, he turned around and insistently pointed out that eating *healthy foods* would help my immune system. Wow. Entitlement to diet shaming and patient blaming starts *that* young?!
@christianaellis Welcome! Good to see you!

Remember when protesters in Portland were kidnapped in unmarked vans and the news cycle was so nuts it was not a big story? This should widely circulated 👇🏼 https://twitter.com/gizmodo/status/1588861712622825472

@GiantMilitaryCats Seeing this has made that last little anxiety over "but I'll lose all my "awww!" and "funny" Twitter joy" vanish. Thank you, sir.

I am so excited, as a dismayed biologist and as an immunocompromised person frustrated in searching for current info, that Your Local Epidemiologist has been hired as a consultant to help with the CDC's communication, erm, gap? Fail? Fall from previous standing?

Her newsletter has been a really good resource for me for the last few months. Recommend. https://yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/

@Nobilis I've found one listing of stable servers accepting new users. Do you have other resources for finding new servers?
In a more meaningful version of the common "What X makes you think of me?" FB game, what Mastodon server is suitable for *gestures at whole self* this?
