@grammargirl Backup, backup, backup! I have a second drive installed as a backup that gets updated every day, and two more plug-in drives that I alternate; one is local while the other is stored off-site. I have stuff from my TRS-80 mod 1 when backups were on audio tape. Never lost anything in over forty years.

@stux That's what my daughter is doing for her upcoming September wedding. She has a friend getting married three weeks after, and the two of them are going to use the same second-hand dinnerware. No plastic, no paper, no waste.

@ZachWeinersmith "Supply chain collapse" is when people starve because food is rotting undelivered in fields or warehouses. "Supply chain collapse" is not trouble finding your favorite Ben & Jerry's flavor for a couple of weeks.

@Brandi_Buchman Not a drag queen.Didn't pretend to be trans to attack a girl in a public restroom.Not a liberal groomer trafficking kids from a pizza joint.Just another child-raping youth pastor.https://lawandcrime.com/crime/youth-minister-threatened-to-kill-wife-if-13-year-old-girl-he-allegedly-raped-didnt-send-him-pictures-of-herself-prosecutors/

@gentrifiedrose @Brandi_Buchman Their have been “many women attacked by trans women and in bathrooms”?Would you be able to cite some examples to support your dubious claim, because it sounds like complete bullshit to me.

#Atheism What is is with Christianity that attracts so many pedophiles? Is it the easy, unquestioned access to children? Is it the sense of power these "Men of God" feel?Type YOUTH PASTOR ARRESTED into Google News and see how many different cases from just the last couple of months come up. If clowns committed this many sex crimes against children, it would be illegal to take your kids to a circus, but somehow it's drag queens they say are the problem.

@gmcgath @freedomofpress Moreover, there haven't been three billion Citizens and legal residents of the United States since the Social Security Act was signed by FDR on August 14, 1935.

#TransRights If you don't know any #trans folk, chances are you do know some trans folk, but they are doing their best to hide that from you because they don't trust you.If it bothers you that you might have people in your circle who don't feel safe around you, you could maybe try to change.

@futurebird Well, there were trillions of them hanging around for 269 million years, so I expect they did pretty much everything it was physically possible for them to do!

@futurebird @whknott The closer we look, the more the universe seems to be fundamentally stochastic. Probability distributions on the small scale and statistics on the large are as important as calculus in understanding where we are.

@futurebird "Many teachers teach a wide range of grade levels. So you could have a teacher who *could* teach Linear Algebra teaching you in 4th grade math."This is really important. I taught 8th grade math at a 6-8 middle school. There were two of us among the 18 teacher who taught math who had degrees in math, and how much they'd learned in earlier grades was wrong was frightening. An unholy number of elementary school teachers never liked math and do a poor job teaching it.

@futurebird Yep. The African clawed frog is an impressive beast, able to live anywhere there's water, eat anything that will fit in their mouths, reproduce any time of year, and resist chytrid fungus. They've been released into the wild on every continent but one, perhaps after their common use in human pregnancy tests became obsolete.These little frogs are goddam monsters!

"A new survey has found that more than half of Americans do not believe #God exists or that He “affects lives,” prompting one prominent researcher to highlight the need for “sweeping national repentance and spiritual renewal.” Personally, I think the decline of Christianity is the "spiritual renewal" we need.https://www.christianpost.com/news/less-than-half-of-americans-believe-god-exists-barna-survey.html#atheism #religion #Christianity
