@peterbrown You seem to think I’m against it, or that I set the arbitrary number at 400 - which you said was fine. I said zero. I want the war to stop. However, it has to stop on both sides simultaneously.
@la_sombra@mstdn.ca And that was a shame because it was a great show. @RickiTarr
Here’s What Michael Phelps Wants You to Know About Covid-19.
Be prepared and act quickly if the virus strikes, says the swimming legend.
Phelps later learned that his depression puts him at a high risk for severe Covid-19, “which makes sense because I’ve experienced how mental health can affect physical health,” he says. “This was really eye-opening for me, and I know I’m not alone. There are so many people who don’t know they’re at high risk for getting very sick from Covid-19.”
😳Via Daily Beast:
Nine precincts in #Mississippi’s most populous county ran out of ballots early on Election Day.
In case anyone is trying to contact someone in Australia and can't, it could be because Optus is down nationwide, affecting mobile, phone, internet.
This has crippled many ambulance services, hospitals, public transport, and more (including (2FA such as for banking).
It's been down since 4 am Australian Eastern Daylight Time.

I've taken some time off to recenter myself, and now I'm officially re-entering the job market.
If you're in need of a technical editor, writer, or manager of either, or if you know someone who'd be interested, let's talk.
I've worked on tutorials for DigitalOcean, books for O'Reilly and Pragmatic, and other stuff besides.
Boosts for reach are appreciated.
@peterbrown You have a point there. And it’s far fewer than were killed in the original attack on Israel.
@peterbrown Because so many people are only outraged at the numbers, not the deaths themselves, just the numbers. So like with Covid, I’d like to see the number of deaths from a reputable source. Will you be as outraged if it’s only 400? I doubt it.

@Chalkllate They look like purple peter peppers! They sound wonderful.
Sen. Schumer told #Democrats to more forcefully push the #GOP on #Ukraine aid given there’s no clear path to passing it before Thanksgiving.
There’s a real risk that tens of billions for Ukraine, #Israel, the border and #Taiwan will be left on the sidelines.
