I have had @netflix since 1997 (Oh god 26 years) and their new password policies requiring monthly log-ins and travel codes (treating customers like criminals) AND the fact that they cancel every new series after the 1st season I'm genuinely considering canceling my subscription.

Instead of weakening the curriculum for millions of students across the United States why didn't College Board just say they wouldn't offer the course in Florida?

What am I paying for at this point @netflix? Old content that I can get elsewhere, original shows I can't rely on to progress beyond one season, and making access to the service as complicated and inconvenient as possible? What's your value? Make an argument for your existence.

Many have worried these past few years about what effect lockdowns and other covid mitigation measures might have had on our childrenās immune systems, especially babies and infants. So I dug into the science for New Scientistās immune system special.https://t.co/yW1TuuhQUk

A conversation in Discord just reminded me: It's a new year, so cosplayers and sewists should all go check their flexible tape measures against a ruler or cutting mat to make sure they haven't stretched out over the past year!

Um. The recordings are *wild.* Hear how UnitedHealthcare works to deny paying for needed medical treatment.https://t.co/RaZzJn8MdC
There is no āanti-scienceā attitude more insidious than the idea that the truth is represented by what the āmajorityā of scientists think at any given moment. Almost as bad: Stating that āmost scientistsā agree on something without any evidence that they do.

This map (based on @FracTracker analyses) shows exactly why community and #EJ groups worked so hard to create newly enacted safety setbacks from oil drilling. My latest explores why they're not about to let the oil industry overturn their hard-won gains. https://t.co/QUt5lmc9Eb pic.twitter.com/uhK79BGlnf

As @israelizreal wrote about today, cops are being (further) primed to fight their city's citizens like enemies in a war zone. It's not gonna get better with this shit.https://t.co/FqHUWHh8YK pic.twitter.com/H0i9Djtuaa

Debates around whether "chronic fatigue syndrome" and "long covid" are "psychological" vs "real" are mind-bogglingly unscientific. Both terms are catch-alls encompassing many different ills. Scientists who use precise criteria and modern tools have found biological abnormalities.
