I've said it before, but it's really disappointing that you basically have to neglect your research and get a minor degree in computer science if you're a #humanities academic who wants to showcase their work on an ethical platform.

I don't expect to be able to do all the things that #tech folks do, but it seems like it shouldn't be as hard as it is just to get some text on a page.

Great appearance on Hoops for Harris by my candidate in the NJ7 critical swing district: Sue Altman. We need her energy--and ethics and intelligence--in Congress to replace nepo-pol Tom Kean Jr.

Ancient asteroid 20 times larger than the one that wiped out the dinosaurs likely hit Jupiter’s moon Ganymede.

CNN reports that Japanese researchers are studying the possible impact of the collision some 4 billion years ago: flip.it/KnQk9p

This EU #openscience policy announcement, despite the somewhat underwhelming EU lingo in some places, is a bombshell, if/when properly implemented:

op.europa.eu/en/publication-de…

IMHO, many places around the world, especially the rich ones not running something like SciELO/Redalyc etc. (looking at you, USA!), should closely study this document and what it actually means and entails.

That could be more accurate, yes, but it'd cost me a ton of characters 🤣

Moneyed interests, and all-too-eager stooges to do the dirty work because they get to play shoot 'em up... And oligarchs wonder why they are so despised by working people

It is always so good when the schizostylis finally blooms 💖
Its colours are fab 💖
My vermillion schizostylis in full bloom. I am holding it up so you can see a portion of my fingers, too, and the backdrop is the terrace.

Room With Cat.
Where is the cat?

🔸 Please don't give your result away, no spoilers 🔸

#Cats #CatsOfMastodon

A room. With a cat. You can also see the garden, a wooden 'cube' with some plants, a tv, a speaker, coffee of course, a bit of sofa, a bit of table, candles, wall, and more. I am very tired so no further Alt description because the goal is to go find the cat in the picture.

Next step of the solar image processing. Still can't see the prominences but they'll appear. Thinking about putting my h-alpha scope back outside during lunch and live streaming it. *note* It will not look this sharp but it will be monochrome.

@damkina Yes, a good point. Parents should also know that, even when measles doesn't kill children (and it does so sometimes), it can cause blindness. One of my cases of childhood measles was a serious case with high fever, and I remember my parents' strong concern that I might lose my sight. The photophobia was so intense that they had to find ways to block out any light coming into my bedroom, and for days, they worked hard to get the fever down.

@damkina Yes. I'm grateful for whatever and whoever helped me survive — notably, a grandmother and aunt who made clear to me from early childhood forward that they loved me unconditionally and that I always had a safe place with her. My aunt was unmarried, a teacher, and kept house for her mother, my grandmother.

@LaNaehForaday Yes, they count on a herd effect that they themselves are, selfishly and dangerously, refusing to assist. And then the numbers of vaccinated children fall dangerously low, and all unvaxxinated children are at serious risk — and diseases we once considered "conquered" roar back. The stupidity of this is mind-boggling.
