Oh cool! Musée d'Orsay is now on Mastodon.

I started working with a personal trainer 3x/week a few weeks ago, and hooboy have I been ignoring my core all these decades.

If y'all are interested in a really smart, funny trainer who's available to work over Signal or other video platforms, DM me. Worth a pound of cure.

Well, that conveniently solves the question of whether I'm going to get one.

Folks always ask me how I do all the stuff I do and ALSO make music.

I tell them I couldn't do it all UNLESS I made music.

At this point, it would probably just make more sense, and save a lot of hassle, if the FDA told us what foods are NOT being recalled.

Maybe the "H" in MAHA stands for "hungry."

I was inside the cloud of smoke in NYC on 9/11. More than 20 years later, I got cancer. I applied for help from the WTC compensation fund, and was rejected because I didn't have enough evidence of my presence in the arbitrarily-drawn "exposure zone" several decades later.

Nonetheless, it's good to see the truth exposed.

Thinking of all the wonderful scholars, artists, and other human beings I know in Germany.

We will always remain friends, regardless of what crimes, injustices, and hateful proclamations are made in our names.

Man, I really really really wish she hadn't said that Anne Frank shit.

The album is so good and she's such a great artist and I'm such a huge fan and I'm seeing her next week and I can't stop thinking about it.

If this seems like a strange or random direction for MAGA hate speech, read @adriennemassanari's work. Online gaming culture was the crucible where MAGA hate speech was first brewed.

Kudos to the @Gizmodo editor who wrote this headline

@Rhube Apologies. It helped with my tinnitus, thought it might help with yours.

This isn't merely an embarrassing fuckup, it's symptomatic of the fundamentally anti-science stance of MAHA: begin with the conclusion, and tell AI to justify it for you.

@marielgm @aram @rwg @couldrynick @driscoll @rickf @paufder Now listening to Kevin Driscoll - as an AoIR member myself (and fedi researcher), although I'm not at the AoIR instance (I'm a proud member and co-admin of ursal.zone), I keep up with fellow AoIR members' posts by pinning the instance in my app's home (I use Moshidon), so thanks for the instance, folks.
