Aliens" is a science fiction horror film released in 1986 that is still highly regarded for its intense and thrilling plot. One of the main reasons the movie remains popular today is the strong performance of Sigourney Weaver as the main character, Ellen Ripley.
While the movie is set in the year 2179, the technological advancements depicted are similar to those of the mid-1990s.
The artist HR Giger, known for his work on the movie, is also widely praised for his genius.
@Julie “Make your own instance” is especially unhelpful to the targets of abuse because you’re just telling them to create a really attractive attack surface. Better to have a crap ton of instances with good policies and active moderation teams.
“Make your own instance” is for people with money and access and time who want to make their own rules or nerd out about something specific, it’s a totally different problem.

Getting COVID-19 a second time doubles a person’s chance of dying and triples the likelihood of being hospitalized, a new study found.

As we cross into the dark valley of Republican House control, give us strength to ridicule the ridiculous, appoint more liberal judges and use our Senate majority to hold the line and defend democracy.
To all of my new friends on Mastodon, thank you making me feel welcome, but most of all for your civility, inclusivity and community spirit. This is the future of genuine social engagement, you should be proud.
Happy New Year
OK so #photographers of #mastodon how do you feel about unusual #landscapephotography formats? I seem to end up being a fan but I know others detest anything out of the normal ratios?

Extremely smart thread by @mattsheffield.
It’s our dose of optimism for the next year:
The generation that lived through the last big wave of oligarchy and fascism — around the 1940s — didn’t vote for the party of big money for the rest of their lives, and we got the 1950s-1960s era of restraint on #oligarchs, workers’ rights, and civil rights.
If we can beat back this neofascist wave we face, we can do even more.
Happy New Year! #2023 #newyear
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
