Happy Mars New Year! The Martian year is about twice as long as a year on Earth, and the Martian epoch of 0 was arbitrarily set as May 24, 1953. So today we start the year 37. Or if you want to Long Now it, 00037. https://earthsky.org/astronomy-essentials/mars-calendar-years-began-in-earth-year-1955/

The city is absolutely dark with no electricity, mobile connection is shit. Water is now a luxury.

It’s still better than being part of Russia. Fuck them. Ukraine will win.

Guys, billionaire behavior expert here. You may think it's cute or funny, but billionaires only buy social media platforms and run them into the ground when they're scared or otherwise in extreme distress. This poor little guy is terrified.

Some Mastodon tips I've learned:

- You need a fit, young hunting party
- They are not easy to bring down, so make sure your spears have extremely sharp tips
- Ensure you have a supply line and pack animals available to transport the meat and pelt back to the cave

Greg Bear passed away today. I think I may pick up Blood Music again soon in his honor.
Think the main difference between the two platforms is that on Twitter when you make a joke you get one haha and two death threats, whereas on here you get one haha and someone earnestly explaining the 6th century origins of the specific road that particular chicken crossed. Yet to decide which is more distressing.
