Mastodon: a move to publicly owned scholarly knowledge. Correspondence at Nature.

"There is now a golden opportunity for every scholarly society to implement a Mastodon instance for anyone interested in their field. If the academic community can create a public resource protected from private interests, it could become a model for bringing the remaining scholarly record — encompassing text, data and code — into the Fediverse."

The bird site changing has completely made me adjust how I consume social media. I was addicted to it. Now I feel more intentional and less stressed.

"Americans remain shaken by the covid experience, including the government’s feeble and at times counterproductive responses. The coronavirus cost more than 1 million Americans their lives and left millions more disabled by extreme fatigue, neurological issues and other symptoms of long covid. At the same time, people are angry that government efforts to keep covid from causing even more harm cost many their jobs, set children back in academic development, and led to an uptick in depression and poverty.

Better public health policies could have prevented this devastation."

This week Congress can help prevent another pandemic catastrophe

Legislation included in the $1.7 trillion budget deal would keep public health officials from repeating 2020's mistakes.

i forgot to say it but the Washington Post is continuing its database of Fatal shootings by police into our ninth year https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/investigations/police-shootings-database/
Police shootings database 2015-2023: Search by race, age, department

Filter the Washington Post database, which includes police shooting statistics since January 2015, by unarmed police shootings, race and age of victim and more.

I love finding new people to follow each time I open this app.
I am not enjoying football today. I hope the commercials are good during the big game. Missing my #BuffaloBills
TGIF
Finally caught #Covid and lost several days to the recovery process. I'm praying for the souls lost to gun violence and mad about the #BuffaloBills. What else did I miss in the last two weeks?
