Mayor Anne Hidalgo of #Paris announced on #X that she was quitting the social media site because it had devolved into a “gigantic global sewer” for disinformation, hatred, anti-Semitism and racism, and a “tool for destroying our democracies.” #Twitter #Musk

Why is sourdough suddenly so in? My father made sourdough bread, pancakes, cake, etc. back in the late 70s. We had starter filling up the fridge. Nobody else did it. I brought some to college with me, and introduced it to my housemates. Today, it’s far from my favorite.

Human Rights Watch:

"The explosion that killed and injured many civilians at al-Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza on October 17, 2023, resulted from an apparent rocket-propelled munition, such as those commonly used by Palestinian armed groups, that hit the hospital grounds".

Hamas, Islamic Jihad or other Palestinian terrorists killed or injured their fellow-Palestinians with a projectile exploding at Al Ahli hospital, fired from within the Gaza strip.

@stevesilberman Is it normal for people to lie on the floor in the Florida Capital? @hannu_ikonen

Social media should be fun, if you're not having fun you should log off

>> please just don’t trust Amnesty

#Amnesty accuses #US State Dept of targeting groups that advocate "using peaceful means, such as boycotts" but one look at violent #BDS protests in front of #DNC, their disruptions in Congress, Bay Bridge, & such give away the lie

US "is using false & politically motivated accusations of antisemitism to harm peaceful activists"
That, in itself, is an Amnesty lie

This morning, hubby found a YouTube video of Mice for Cats. Well this cat sure enjoyed it!

Real shame. 🎻 Rudy Giuliani joins your self-inflicted club.

“Far-right attorney John #Eastman, one of #Trump's co-defendants in the Georgia election racketeering case, told conservative publication The Federalist his legal expenses in the case have left him in a dire financial situation.”- Raw Story rawstory.com/john-eastman-fult

@Judeet88@universeodon.com I toss those immediately. Then I go to the manufacturer’s website and download a digital version. Saves space, and you never misplace them.

#Science is littered with #zombie studies. Here’s how to stop their spread. Just by citing a #zombiepublication, new #research becomes #infected: A single unreliable #citation can threaten the reliability of the research that cites it, and that infection can cascade, spreading across hundreds of papers. A 2019 paper on #childhoodcancer, for example, cites 51 different #RetractedPapers making its research likely impossible to salvage. thehill.com/opinion/education/ #KM #education #medicine

@ljwrites The year after I completed my dissertation, I spend endless hours helping classmates who had neglected my initial advice on using the APA template the MS had so thoughtfully provided. @A11yAwareness @troypatterson
