Jack FraserBecause I'm on a German server my trending topics are #keinVergessen and #niemalsVergessen. This is because 9 November is the anniversary of Kristallnacht.
These brass plates in the pavements memorialise Jewish people at what were their addresses. I saw this one in Berlin in the spring. #NeverForget
the Mad unPsychologistwhat are your favorite works of #solarpunk or other inspiring transformative fiction that helps imagine a better, queerer, freer future?
Stephen HeardJust finished reading this: "Book Parts" (ed. Dennis Duncan, Adam Smyth). Tapped into just the right vein of book-loving nerdery for me.
Chapters on all the parts that make up a book: the text, yes, but also Dust Jackets, Title Pages, Frontispieces, Indexes, Epigraphs, Running Heads, and much more.
History, function, etc. Some chapters are drier than others but all are interesting.
I'm not really in the academic world, so I have a question: I have a study I've designed, have access to land through my job, and have some preliminary data from testing the protocol for a few months ... I have been thinking about reaching out to profs and seeing if I could turn this into a master's project. Is that feasible, or do professors prefer to have students work on their own specific projects? #academia #ecology #botany
Eugen RochkoProbably not a lot of people know this now, but Mastodon's web app started out with "Publish". In 2016 a famous YouTuber jokingly offered to support Mastodon's Patreon forever if I changed the button to say "Toot" instead. Needless to say, this was a really early, and not very informed decision. The first glimpse of attention and financial support. As a non-native speaker I had no idea there was another meaning.
KevinTConnorImportant story on #ghostgear & how it impacts #ocean life from @guardian @mstdn.media:
🔹At the current rates of loss, the amount of stray fishing nets measured by area would be enough to carpet the surface of the planet in 65 years…
🔹Ghost gear contributes about 20% of marine plastic…
🔹… [ghost gear] affects 66% of marine animals, including all sea turtle species and 50% of seabirds.

Natania BarronI feel, as part of my initiation into this space, I must talk about my love of #Medieval elephants.
Yes, you heard me. You see, though bestiaries were very common in Western Europe, elephants were not.
So things like this happen.
"SO... lion body... got it, cloven hooves, okay, big ears and dead bird eyes... long snake face... PERFECTION."
Greta ThunbergHi, this is Greta. You are welcome to follow me here, if you prefer planet earth to planet mars.
Dean EcklesSay you were trapped in French estate with 15 experts on social networks for a week. What would you ask them?
Purely hypothetical question here.
