This would help explain the severe drop in support for the Voice. We're looking at potential foreign interference in the Australian referendum via the Atlas Network. Certainly warrants further investigation. #auspol

The purpose of this change is to make lives of indigenous peoples better. If you are voting No because you believe that makes their lives better, by all means, vote No. But if you are voting No to make their lives worse, then what does that say about you? #auspol #voteyes #voteno

Mask fitting— getting the nose seal right by extending depth of creases where nose and cheeks meet then resmoothing: video I ran into a couple months back (found on birb site) by @sleepyknave. It’s main focus is getting rid of the ‘corner’ on vertical fold masks but consciously knowing what I’d been doing by doffing/ donning my duckbills multiple times to get a decent seal check sure made it faster and less frustrating. link is to YouTube, hopefully ‘skip ads’ will work

I didn’t start photography until I was in my late thirties. It’s cool to discover interesting hobbies at this stage in my life when I’ve lived long enough to be able to appreciate them.

I have a bunch of hummingbird photos but this one is special because of the lighting and the neatly contrasting backdrop, which is the hanging fronds from a fan palm.

@bethsawin Even though I still am trying to understand how Mastodon works, I always find interesting conversation here. It doesn't leave me feeling addicted or overwhelmed. There is a humanity here - like a nice bookshop/coffee bar rather than a Rave.

@ianmclean
I view it as classification. I've looked into the backgrounds of far too many 'No' proponents. I found significant conspiracist ideation, climate science denial and anti-vaccine sentiment. We shouldn't ignore the fact that many with whom we must deal have a tenuous grasp of reality. We need to work with them or around them.
