I always thought “areola“ sounded cosmic. Like “Nipple“ was a planet that was surrounded by the “Areola belt“.

on the subject of the "Try That In A Small Town" song controversy. I very much agree with his take on it. The song is awful and Aldean and the people who wrote it are assholes.

@jcrabapple She is speaking a timeless truth. There are countless examples in editorial cartoons that show some version of wealthy people diverting the attention of poor folks by giving them 'reasons' to fight one another, or giving middle-class folks a reason to blame poor people and immigrants while their pockets are being picked by the rich and powerful. Y'all may have seen the one with the men and their plates of cookies? The first version of that that I saw was from the 1800's.

But what is the actual PROBLEM with Mastodon?? Said one hundred dozen people over several months of threads here. So I wrote it up.

It's too long, but we got bad doors, stilt-walking French shepherds, water bugs, a bunch of @/shengokai@zirk.us quotations, What The Fuck Is Up With Bluesky, and more.

Very nice article.

And you identified for me why I get stuck in my new doctor's exam room every. time. The handle just doesn't match what my brain thinks the action should be, but now that I'm not there I can't recall exactly what it is 🤷🏻‍♀️ (I can hear his voice in my head, me awkwardly standing at the door: "uhhh...it's a slider")

A partial list of the bread-and-butter posts of today’s digital media companies that, I think, are about to be automated away by mediocre AI tools.

Which ones did I miss?

And what should newsrooms do with AI?

Do you think AI will still provide a paragraphs-long prequel to the recipe? For sure I'd miss that

Florida’s public schools will now teach students that some Black people benefited from slavery because it taught them useful skills, part of new African American history standards approved Wednesday. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/new-florida-standards-teach-black-people-benefited-slavery-taught-usef-rcna95418

@nbcnews Ah yes, the Benevolent White Savior, now formally and purposefully embedded into American public .

It's bad to teach kids the truth about and , but good to teach them that even though that stuff kinda sorta maybe happened a long time ago, it was a good thing.

There’s never enough Gowron in my opinion.

Remember when lots of journalists tried Mastodon but then found it too complicated, so they left? I think about that every time I read their 'analysis' of something

@taylorlorenz
Hey Taylor :o) What are those key features? btw I made a list of news orgs & journalists so that I can better track news. Many of them were very active for a few days in mid-November, then poof! I don't follow those, but a (very) few, like you, managed to hang in there :o)

    I went to my local farm today to pick up my CSA, and on the way back home I listened to an interview with a farmer in Vermont who said that his entire crop, everything he has grown thus far, is gone. The past two days, they were canoeing over farm land covered by water. He estimates $350k+ losses.

    Having the ability to see remotely threads by default like remote profiles is something that can interest you?

    Ie: that means to see all public messages especially messages not federated with your instance.

    @apps
    Advance appreciation to anyone seeking to explain this to me, a noob 🙂 Is it related to Threads, and being able to see those posts?

    sea ice remains on its own this year compared to any other July in our satellite record. Keep in mind when looking at this graph that the y-axis interval is 1,000,000 km². This is a massive deviation from the previous record for the date.

    @ZLabe
    If I'm reading that correctly then, it's millions of square km less than the previous lowest level? :o/

    The farm my kid gets CSA produce from in MA has completely flooded, ruining everything that was grown for summer, as well as the fall. Climate change is ALREADY HAPPENING.

    @StillIRise1963
    I'm really sorry to hear that. Just picked up my own CSA today and would hate for that to happen to any small farm :o/

    There are lots of interesting group accounts you can follow on here, they work like this:

    1. Follow a group's account to see discussion of its topic
    2. @ the account if you want to post to the group
    3. The account boosts anything @-ed to it, be careful when you @ them so that you don't spam the group (spammers tend to be reported and blocked)

    More info, incl. how to create groups, at:

    I've listed some active and friendly groups at:

    So...is there a way to see the feed, or...I don't even know what words to say here, but someplace you can go to see the discussion of the whole group? Like a home page?

    I can laugh about the silly aspects of imploding, but the fact remains that it was (and is) a vital communication tool for millions of people.

    Okay. I've got to get serious about getting off of . I'm addicted! I admit it!! But Elmo Muskrat is killing the place, and the expanded hate profiles...hoo-boy. It's bad. A major struggle for me with my account is that I don't want it to end up super political but I want some politics. I don't want to be out of the loop, but I don't want that twitter vibe (IYKYK 😬 )

    Anyhoo...any suggestions?

    1. I think I should start making lists on here (?) ...
