I suggest that the scientific term for whitewashing be "anglopomorphizing."

I just signed up again for Skype-a-scientist for this year skypeascientist.com/sign-up.ht

Scientists, this is a great way to chat with students all over the place - I've talked to really enthusiastic kids in New Zealand, California, Kansas, Alberta, and New York City.

You can sign up to get a scientist in a particular field to talk to your group if you're a teacher or a volunteer with another group at all interested in science (scouts, church, library, prison, lots of possibilities). Great program!

It's so cold out, I just saw a landlord put their hands into their OWN pockets.

- Hey! Maybe for the new year you should try something new.

- Oh! Well, aye, but...

- But what?

- Well, I just went for a walk and met this really cute bit of moss...

@AJEnglish Google pushes extremist videos on Youtube, Facebook fills minds with propaganda, Amazon recommends Far-right content creators. The huge corporations must be broken up into smaller companies or else there will never be peace.

Most Right-wing trolls use an alt account to do their trolling, especially when they own a business. Unfortunately no-one told that to John, the owner of Remnant World Carpets in San Jose, CA

Are you going to make a New Year's resolution?

Honestly, the way #Threads is evolving right now, I can absolutely understand why so many Mastodon instances are already blocking Threads before it becomes part of the #Fediverse.

For over a year now, I've known how social media can be and how social it really could be. In less than two weeks Threads has managed to become a brown swamp of anger and hate speech.

If this hits the Fediverse, then all the moderators' work over the last few years will have been for nothing.

Threads is simply turning into a racist, trans-hostile, homophobic swamp due to a lack of moderation.

As a moderator of my Mastodon instance, I was one of the few who was against blocking threads directly without having seen anything of it. Now I would very much vote in favour. (And I'm glad we voted for the block already together with the community)

A lot really needs to happen for Threads to earn a place in the Fediverse. If it will ever happen. (Doubt)
