Open source projects be like: we made a library that can add two numbers together but because of the generic scripting language allowed for the input can also be used to visualise molecular structures and we actively support that use case.

I don't understand how someone can be anti-vaxx and anti-lockdown at the same time. Surely being against Covid19 vaccines means you're pro-lockdown?

Two Pfizer shots: 1st I felt absolutely nothing, 2nd tired + slight headache for a day.

People who don't get vaccinated may get Covid19 as side effect with possible complications of lasting heart, lung, brain damage and sometimes death.

Some people have difficulty choosing...

People who have gotten vaccinated please share your experience so we can retweet. Aggressively.

The narrative of unconfirmed disproportionate horror stories is flooding the socials and it’s causing a lot of hesitancy.

Star Trek has ALWAYS been political. Those politics were sometimes wrapped in allegory and metaphor, but Gene was never shy about making controversial statements. He designed ST to use s-f allegory to tell stories that wouldn't otherwise be allowed on network TV.

The fashion industry is a huge contributor to the climate-and ecological emergency, not to mention its impact on the countless workers and communities who are being exploited around the world in order for some to enjoy fast fashion that many treat as disposables. 1/3

When a post / tweet / status / toot / note / whatever pops up on your very personal screen, it may seem like you're the one being talked to and that a response is warranted. It isn't. Read / listen / learn. Don't insert yourself in a conversation you're not part of.

Another thought about twitter culture towards artists: if you keep @'ing an artist and demanding their attention, when do you think they have the time or headspace to make new art?

Gidi reshared this.

I see some accounts on twitter that claim to be Jenna Ortega fans, but aren't. Some act obsessive and possessive. Some put improper posts in her @'s. Some profiles use the n-word and clearly don't share her values. Some of this may be an attempt to make the experience toxic. 1/4

My posts here are shared with twitter in both directions, but only top level posts. I realise that there is no link back to the thread so you can't find the other posts.

What we learned in 2020? That oil is worthless in a society without consumption. That healthcare has to be public because heath is public. That 50% of jobs can be done from home while the other 50% deserve more than they’re being paid. That we live in a society, not an economy.

Color photography *did* exist before WWI. Sergey Mikhaylovich Prokudin-Gorsky began his journey to document early 20th-century Russia in 1909.

FALSE: Contrary to myths circulating on social media, COVID-19 vaccines do NOT cause erectile dysfunction and male infertility.

TRUE: SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, poses a risk for both disorders.

LONG COVID THREAD:

The people running the BBC Horizon "Great British Intelligence Test" challenge on over 80,000 people took the opportunity to see if they could detect any differences by whether people had had covid or not...
It's ridiculous that this is even a poll question. We live in strange times. How are we ever going to explain this to future historians?

I'm trying to watch #Schmigadoon on @AppleTVPlus since it's out today and it has @DoveCameron in it. But I don't think Apple bought enough servers because I keep getting play back errors and dropping back to a low res stream. Must be a popular show.
