@Gargron @blogdiva liar!

I need the help of #mastodon #philosophers.

Why the f*** would #Putin try to coopt the legacy of Immanuel #Kant?

It's probably not a serious question. Maybe it's just a silly immature dunk on #Germany / #German pride. Or maybe there's something darker in Kant's writings that #Russia thinks supports recent #Russian behavior (I have no reason to believe there is, I'm just openly musing).

Either way it's certainly a bizarre new front in the conflict: #philosophy war.

@aral

you're in luck!

if climate change shuts down Atlantic meridional overturning circulation, you'll have clear skies. yay!

you will also freeze, and walnut brains will go "while large swaths of the Earth regularly see spikes to 45 degrees celsius now, it's colder in the British Isles, so climate change isn't real"

moss can be monoecious (one plant having both male and female reproductive organs) or dioecious (male and female reproductive organs on separate plants). dioecious plants can switch gender from female to male or male to female

the natural world is complex

we are part of the natural world

harm is done when bigots feel the need to shove everyone into hamfisted mental categories to satisfy their ignorance and indecency

@Gargron you did good

decentralized is the future, and you've built a foundation

@pixelfed @loops

*this* is how you kill #tiktok

@eff

yeah i'm unfollowing you #EFF

i expect "perfect is the enemy of the good" nonsense from random commenters

but i expect better from you

#tiktok is a vile obscenity of privacy defilement. nevermind the propaganda and disinfo angle

and here you are, saying we should go soft on this sh**ty evil thing

because you want more

why is this "i stand against this good thing because i want better" such a seductive take for otherwise intelligent people?

#tiktoktban

@eff @cooperq @NBC

Weird take #EFF.

Do you think increased tech literacy will result in more people understanding how #Tiktok is a command control tool just like #Facebook?

Ok, good.

Then is there a reason why this isn't the most important point here EFF?

@arstechnica i think the cat pictured is unrelated to the story, but whoever chose that cat pic did a good job of communicating the right emotion from the cat's perspective
