These wolves are running through the Fediverse!

Boost to help them on their way, and to help them them visit friends! :D

Let's see how many instances the wolves can reach on their journey! 🐺

@smallcircles @radix @GeeksLoveDetail @opencollective @conservancy Note also that as Open Source Collective is a 501c6, it *legally can't* transfer those trademarks or domains to a for-profit company.

Sending these things to a fiscal host like Open Source Collective effectively ensures that something like Gitea Ltd. can't happen. It's a great way to lock yourself off from being able to do unethical things.

I’m wondering if y’all can help me build a community of trans people of colour on the tag #TransPOC as i miss the wonderful people i knew on a different animal themed app.
After seeing reports of racism and bad moderation I guess i’m just trying to find my people. Boosts very welcome.

Today’s #APOD is a #video about the power of ten, made in the late 70’s.

I won’t share it here because I believe there are better and more recent videos to explain the HUGE scale difference between the very very small, sub-atomic and the very very large, astronomical scales.

I like the one below, made by Harry Evett. On that video you can see the difference between the smallest scale we know, until the largest one.

A cryptobro DMed me to ask if I wanted to join his mailing list.

I spent slightly too long making this to send in reply.

Can I get some help?

I tried making my first Omeka site, documenting sites of anti-Asian housing discrimination in Berkeley, California.

I'd love any suggestions or early feedback — technical, spelling, unclear text, etc. Thank you!

A new supercomputer simulation animates the evolution of the universe

It’s the most accurate, detailed glimpse of the early cosmos yet, researchers report

https://www.sciencenews.org/article/universe-evolution-supercomputer-animation-stars-galaxies

"This virtual glimpse into the cosmos’s past is the result of CoDaIII, the third iteration of the Cosmic Dawn Project, which traces the history of the universe, beginning with the 'cosmic dark ages' about 10 million years after the Big Bang."

To all Mastodon-admins: seems like there's an attack on all instances by troll accounts. Servers get slow because of it.
They use thousands of subdomains of activitypub-troll.cf. My 'pull' queues skyrocketed.

I now blocked the domain activitypub-troll.cf and all is back to normal. Please check if you're hit too.

The decision to leave vs. stay at the fowl place shouldn't be framed as one about ceding ground because it's not— it's about complicity in proving a bigoted billionaire's business thesis.

That thesis is simply that there are enough individuals and organizations willing to remain despite rampant racism, antisemitism, and other expressions of hate.

Elon is banking on holdouts because he needs them to get advertisers to bend to his will. Staying on Twitter *is* ceding ground *and* fueling hate.

@tchambers thanks. I've posted it on reddit https://www.reddit.com/r/Mastodon/comments/zaz8oj/awesome_analysis_of_the_twitter_migration/
