Did you know that the universe is hiding many secret, scary places?👻
Apart from the sheer size of the universe and the emptiness of space, there are many places that will keep you awake at night! In this new ebook, just in time for Halloween🎃, the SETI Institute tells you about 11 of them, all making for a great late-night read under the dark skies!
Complete the form at connect.seti.org/11spookiestpl… to get a copy of this ebook, and be prepared to learn about the spookiest places in the universe.
Pls watch this 1 min video, in which anti-vax RFK says he's getting Sec. of HHS (which runs the CDC & FDA, & Medicare) & Trump says he's going to "let him go wild on health...& medicines."
All as it becomes more likely H5N1 will soon be transmissible human-to-human (based on the fact that it's now jumped to pigs).
H5N1 has historically had a > 50% mortality rate in people (exposed via animals). In an H5N1 pandemic, we DON'T want Trump & RFK. Lives depend on your vote.

This is the WORST flier I've ever made. 😳
But please come to the TRANS NERD MEET UP on Saturday, from 1:30 until whenever at Zeitgeist on Valencia.
There is NO gatekeeping, i.e. nobody will try to say that you're not trans enough or nerdy enough. If you are gender non-conforming and enjoy geeking out about anything at all, we wanna see you there. ❤️
The fallout from Jeff Bezos spiking the Kamala Harris endorsement has been swift. Since Friday, nearly a third of the Washington Post’s 10-person editorial board has resigned in protest, two Post columnists have departed the paper entirely (with more resignations expected), and 250,000 readers—10% of the Post’s total—have canceled their subscriptions.
It’s really frightening when Gannett, the Washington Post, and the LA Times cannot be as clear-eyed and forthright as BuzzFeed

Wooo! A near-future version of Mastodon is going to support a new `/oauth/userinfo` endpoint with the profile scope.
This allows you to retrieve back standard JWT-claims about the currently authenticated person.
Much less information that /api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials, and follows the OIDC standard for User Info Endpoint.
