There is a slight problem with alternate text/captions for images. At least on Toot! - You cannot view the entire picture.

@tomcapuder This is why I get so angry with believers when they try to win the discussion with “free will.”

#Christians:
For argument's sake, let’s say #Jesus existed and cured a blind guy.

Why would #God create blindness?

The U.S. keeps laws on the books so that regular people won't think they can commit the same crimes that rich and powerful people get away with. politico.com/news/2022/12/30/n

@TransitBiker @robryk @TechConnectify @sass They don’t have them in upstate. Just in the city burb area like Orange and Richland counties.

I chose an instance pretty much at random, and then I discovered that I really liked the person who was managing that instance (@KuJoe). Other than that, it doesn't seem to matter much who else is on that instance.

@TechConnectify @sass @TransitBiker Hence the alternate merge. Never saw a problem or heard anyone complain about it.

@TechConnectify @sass @TransitBiker Or do like they do in NY and put up signs that say “alternate merge.”

@sass Hot take - the only way we're gonna make zipper merges work is if the stop telling people which lane ends.

If a sign just said "Caution: Lane Reduction in Three Miles" we could force people to take turns.

But saying "Left lane ends" means planners will plan, they get over, then they're annoyed at the people who didn't plan, they don't let them in, yadda yadda.

Ginni Thomas confirmed in her Jan 6 deposition testimony the “best friend” she referred to in texts with Mark Meadows was in fact Clarence Thomas.

Ginni’s texts implied that calls with Justice Thomas helped her to “keep holding on” as she worked to overturn the 2020 election.

Posting links to Twitter in Mastodon is similar to saying you don’t care about your ex by obsessing about your ex.

You are better than that. Stop it.

#UPDATE The United States has condemned Myanmar's junta for handing ousted leader Aung San Suu Kyi a total of 33 years in prison in its final sentencing and demanded her release.

The fight for #DCStatehood is a critical component of the movement to expand, protect and defend voting rights throughout the country. brennancenter.org/our-work/res

There was a wooden shoe in my toilet.

It was clogged.
