Jasper insisted on tasting my fingertip this morning, I guess I had some butter residue left over from my breakfast toast. I really shouldn’t indulge him but it’s a cat, what are ya gonna do.

Just a few finishing touches! Hope you and your loved ones are having a great Christmas Eve.
Then there are fledglings! If crows trust you, they will introduce you to their young ones.
Nothing is better.
Nothing.
Lord Jesus. I am not just... Making things up so I look cool on the internet. For fuck's sake. I might have done shit all for SciComm in the past 7 or so years, but before that I poured my heart into it. I broke myself on it.
I spent years of my life with dozens of other people distilling the best way of helping people who aren't scientists understand science. The best way to answer their questions. To coach the scientists we had to answer in ways that would break down their knowledge so everyone could understand.
Without AskScience there would be no AskHistorians which is actually MORE popular now. They are so fantastic. They are doing what I wish we could have done with AS, but that's a different discussion.
So I'm not just some random yahoo. I'm just a yahoo who had a breakdown trying to moderate 6 million people with tools that made it impossible. I don't know how the current team does 23 million. They are amazing.
The kittens have almost trebled in size within 2 months and they chose to demonstrate their gains by pulling down the Christmas tree. What a double-act.
Apologies for the blurry photo, it was a quick snap on the phone.
NEW: Elon Musk sent a Signal message ordering his staff to aid in the Twitter Files: "please give Bari [Weiss] full access to everything at Twitter. No limits at all.”
That triggered a frenzy inside Twitter, which was under a decade-old FTC order. IT staff refused to onboard Weiss, worried Twitter would be breaking the law.
Days later, two executives were fired.
"These guys did amazing damage,” a former employee told me of the Musk subordinates running the company.

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.
