Imagine explaining to past previous generations that a major issue these days is not the fact we can prevent or cure a loooot of diseases that killed them but many people refuse to accept these vaccines for themselves or their children because they think they know something the scientists who developed the cures don't

Maks, #ElonMusk is planning a purge of #Bots and #Trolls on #Twix. He posted this warning about 4 hours ago, with a note saying if you're swept up by accident,let me know on #X - how, if you're account is deleted?
He's planning on removing a swath of #NAFO and pro #Ukraine accounts - I guarantee it.
Just be aware of this for tomorrow morning...good luck.
It occurs to me that, since the demise of Twitter and the half-hearted move to Mastodon, most of my communication on social media is only with people I know. My brain is currently actively calculating if this is a good or a bad thing.
I do miss old Science Twitter, however. Is that still a thing here or elsewhere in another form? Is everyone partying without me? Leads welcomed. #Science#SciComm
I feel very strongly about calling Elon Musk's social media platform "X" because I want to remind people that Twitter is gone -- it's dead. And we know who killed it. We need to acknowledge the power that one edgelord billionaire has over our public sphere, and remind ourselves that we cannot reclaim that space. We can't make it "ours" again by calling it Twitter. I'd rather build up new spaces online than chase after the memory of one that is lost.

Russia helps elect Trump. For the first time in US history, a hostile foreign power has an American ally in the WH. Eight years later, Republicans are helping Russia wage a genocidal war against European democracy. It is the greatest shift in America’s stance in world since 1776. A major US party has joined forces with a nuclear power waging war against democracy. If Republicans prevail in helping Russia, what it means to be an American will forever be changed. A shroud of shame will descend on the legacy of the Greatest Generation. They fought to liberate Europe. Republicans are fighting to enslave a European democracy — Stuart Stevens #quotes#quote#Russia#Putin#PutinGOP#PutinPuppets#RussianAssets#Trump#MikeJohnson#Republicans#Ukraine#uspolitics
