Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:
Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.
If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.
Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Excellent public health messaging from New York City!!
Be the happy peace sign waving emoji instead of the sick and sniffling emoji.
How can you do that?
Wear a mask! Ideally a respirator like an N95.
It’ll help keep you and your community safe.

Do yourself a favor: read *Hand to Mouth: Living in Bootstrap America*, by Linda Tirado. Acquaint yourself with the kind of life more Americans live (as the working poor) than those who are currently holding us hostage (both literally via ICE & by refusing to do their jobs and govern).

I just want a social media site where I can learn from others who have experiences I don’t have, connect with folks who do, laugh and find joy in people’s (& animals’) foibles, and know that vulnerable populations & I are safe from harassment & AI meshugas. Is that so much to ask???

One good thing is that there are almost endless ways to take care of one other today while also making the future a safer and richer (measured in complexity, human and non-human not $$ lol). Those are the two urgent tasks now, yes? Isn't it cool that they so often go together?

Thanks for the reminder @janemunday.bsky.social. Every summer, I repost this article DROWNING DOES NOT LOOK LIKE DROWNING. To date, I know of FOUR kids who were saved after someone who'd clicked on the link learnt how to spot actual drowning. Take time to read and pass on.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

In Taiwan mask wearing has been identified as a major factor in slowing the current Covid wave. Masking on public transport has made a huge difference. It's Winter & NB 1.8.1 (Nimbus) is in NZ. Respirators protect people & this simple action protects us all. 😷
