Today is World MS Day. As a Canadian, I am sharing that Canada has one of the highest rates of MS in the world, with on average 12 Canadians diagnosed each day.

I’m also sharing this digital carnation to #TakeActionForMS and show my support for the MS community.

in 2023, if you are serious about building a social network, you *start* with good moderation and *build outward*

we don't really talk about people being "highly strung" anymore

we should get back to acknowledging that some people are, indeed, Highly Strung

I’ve had luck with chat through their support app. I’ve had to contact them a couple of times about credit card issues and vendors charging without permission.

I’ve been getting one every two weeks.

Feeds are one of the best things about Bluesky & the science feed is objectively* the best one

It would be amazing if people liked and shared the feed to boost it's discoverability

AND if you have new scientists or sci-comms people coming in, please see link in replies for how to get them added

Pertinent to another conversation. Arguing with people online is never truly valuable. Unless you're having fun - don't. If you are having fun - have at it, just make sure there's no collateral damage.

I actually hope for this more than I care to admit.

Happy Pride! Happy to be here! Looking for anime, comic book, Canada, Japan and UK connections. And of course always great to connect with fellow queers!
