I was very alarmed by the idea that people could edit posts on here when I moved from Twitter. So, in my settings, I put on every single alert. An edit is the *only* thing that makes the mastodon app make noise.

I expected to catch wicked subterfuge, chicanery.

But, I hear the alert sound very rarely.

And? I'm always excited to see what spelling error is corrected.

😆

(Darkly: Posts and their corrected versions would be a killer training set for a nice tame spelling LLM)

I'd love some advice from #pottery folk. I've switched from a brush-on glaze to dipped. It's working well, except for two problems:

#1: The glaze doesn't seem to stick to the rim of the cups very well.

#2: The glaze cracks as it cools, rendering the cups functionally useless. I assume this is because of a mis-match between the thermal coefficients of expansion, but I'm not sure. Do I just need a different clay? Or can I tweak the glaze?

Private instance, so boosts = ❤️

🚨 NEW: One of the largest COVID-19 vaccine studies ever (28 MILLION people in France) just dropped.

Results?
• 74% lower risk of death from severe COVID-19
• 25% lower risk of all-cause mortality
• No increase in 4-year mortality
• Vaccinated people had lower risk of death from any cause.
In short: mRNA vaccines weren’t just safe — they were protective across the board. 🔥📉 https://shorturl.at/GcZeK

Hello, how are you all? Today, during my trip to the beach, I found truly marginalized families living on the shore in tattered tents made of rags, without winter blankets. Whoever wants to help them, please don't hesitate. They are truly marginalized and living next to garbage. https://gofund.me/eed6031c @fabio

So this is a good reminder : what ever you got on Apple, Google, Microsoft, Amazon, Meta & co is not your property. It is theirs.

And they can remove the whole of it in the flash of an eye for whatever reason appears to occur ⬇️

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart to everyone who donated or shared my previous tweet. Thanks to you, I was able to buy school supplies for my children. If you can continue to support me, our goal today is $100 so I can buy food for my children this week, and it can be achieved if 10 people donate $10 each. 🍉🥬🥦🥖🍳🥗

Please stand by me.💔🙏🇵🇸
