remember kids - bandcamp is the ONLY large scale digital music platform.
Hopefully you see this before you go sharing any of your end of year “wraps.”

You may not understand why, but the healthcare insurance and PBM contracts YOU have signed for Tesla, SpaceX , @X, along with CEOs of other big companies , have more impact on healthcare costs and quality of care in this country, than anything you can do with DOGE

Our troll block list is growing fast. So, as an added bonus we're adding the very spammiest bot accounts we can find to the list. When humans subscribe and click "block," you clean your feed. When trolls subscribe and follow they get SPAM! 🫡

This is both important...and so damn depressing. I've definitely seen this.

People share misinformation when it sparks moral outrage. They know it might not be true. They simply do not CARE. arstechnica.com/science/2024...
People will share misinformation that sparks “moral outrage”
People can tell it’s not true, but if they’re outraged by it, they’ll share anyway.

Wow. We're doomed.
TIL that one reason raw milk is having a comeback is a lot of people don't know what pasteurization is. They think it's adding "chemicals" not a rapid heat treatment

Tree planting and biodiversity offsets give the impression we can just create nature, or replace what we destroy. But we cannot

No technology can replace a 500 yr old tree, and nor can 500 1 yr old trees

The only thing that can is 500 yrs

Nature is irreplaceable, and we must treat it as such

New social network! It's been months since we've had a new one of these. Will this be the one to kill Facebook? No, probably not. But it might kill xitter
