Principled and courageous words from #Columbia Math Professor Peter Woit in the wake of the University's burial of academic freedom.

“they appear to have decided to not support Mahmoud Khalil or other university community members facing imprisonment and deportation"

Sunrise whispers soft,
Blankets hug in sleepy warmth,
Dreams linger, time lost.

Adding mastodon.world to this list, sadly. They’re experiencing a massive wave of spambot signups and we’ll need to limit them while they work to reign things in.

The original Dear Abby was a badass, esp for her time, she was a champion for queer acceptance in her column and was very big on telling parents to listen and accept their children instead of punishing and fighting with them. But also this response is a banger. Top 10 advice columnist responses of all time.

My favourite thing in the whole Fediverse is when I get a notification that someone has edited a toot I favourited or boosted months ago. Like, something in that toot has been bugging them for half a year. A comma that could've been a semi-colon. A spelling mistake they belatedly spotted. Some good information they wish they'd put in the Alt Text. And thanks to the magic of Mastodon, they can just fix it now, all these months later. I feel happy for them, knowing they can sleep soundly again.

most of the advertising for the day announced “jerry garcia & friends,” but this newspaper ad does list the grateful dead. this ontological question is important because it’s about whether or not the grateful dead really existed in march 1975 or if this expanded flexible lineup was meant to represent the next still-undefined phase. @Corry342 gets into the day: http://lostlivedead.blogspot.com/2012/10/march-23-1975-kezar-stadium-san.html [2/7]
