This project (Human Cell Atlas) is just indescribably cool

Researchers are building an atlas of the thousands of cell types present in the human body, to serve as a roadmap for future research, and preliminary results are already proving useful for disease prevention

Atlas of cells offers a milestone leap in understanding of the human body | CNN
An ambitious project launched in 2016 has made a dent in one of biology’s greatest challenges — with more than 3,600 researchers profiling more than 100 million cells.

Hi. I’m generally not a posting scold about what other people do here, but I am with this one thing:

Do not engage with political troll accounts. They want you to argue. So don’t give them the win.

We have excellent blocking functions here, and denying the troll farms oxygen is effective. Block.

Sorry I replaced the baby Jesus in your nativity scene with a Grogu doll and called it “The Mangerlorian.”

please give pedro pascal a swashbuckler movie

my man was grown in a lab specifically to wear a hat with a feather on it and go "a-HA" and it is a shame on the world that we deny him that

With Mark Cuban rejoining Bluesky, just going to note that his Costplus Drugs is one of the legitimately best things to happen to health care in a while. If you have prescriptions, it's worth checking if they're cheaper there. They likely are.

A helpful and also funny thread about How To Bluesky
Newsky Bluesky tips by me, figmentpudding;

1. Use alt text, it can take a little time but just imagine your bestie is sitting with their eyes closed and you're explaining a picture to them like a little ASMR meditation, because you care about them and want them to thrive <3

On videos and gifs too

Bluesky is built to make social more like the Web again, so we will never suppress links. Link to your writing, your art, your personal site — this is the social internet, designed from the ground up to be open and interoperable.
Hard to describe as a journalist how grateful I am to have a text-based app that does not suppress hyperlinks. I don’t know if people realize exactly how hostile the corporate internet has gotten toward news.

it would be really cool if cis people internalized the fact that trans people can't just detransition on a whim and that banning hrt is akin to banning insulin or blood pressure medication. even from supposed allies, there's the continued notion that trans people "don't /need/ need hormones".

And maybe in the future with a ~mrm~ film camera (or even DSLR) I can actually look into my little interests of sports photography or wildlife (the latter being combined with my desire to disappear off the map, per usual).

I'm looking forward to some future travels to NY and I'm hoping by then I have my hands on the telescopic lens I've been eyeing. As well as finding some sort of < more recently manufactured > film camera than the one I have.

the actual best thing you can do for your mental health the next 4 years is make it a point to not wake up everyday and google the president to see what shit he did while you were asleep. Stay engaged, stay aware stay alert but don't do this, it will not only not help it'll make you feel worse daily

Labelers are one of the coolest features here! One of my favorites is the pronoun labeler. Subscribe and follow the instructions to indicate your pronouns. Then they will show up under your name when you chat and reply to people and you’ll be able to see other people’s!
