Friends, let me tell you about the Giant Palouse Earthworm, because this deserves its own thread.

The Palouse prairie ran from southeastern WA into Idaho, and it’s nearly gone, super endangered, not even 1% remains. It was all plowed under for wheat and lentils more than a century ago. But there are programs now to replant retired ag fields with native vegetation, which is great!

Anyone have a lead on an Amiga 2000 keyboard for sale?

Intro post: I'm a professor of #Biology at the #UniversityOfWashington. My training is in #EvolutionaryBiology, #BehavioralEcology, #PopulationGenetics, and #Epidemiology. I did lots of work in #Bibliometrics and #NetworkTheory. I teach #DataLiteracy. These days I spend a lot of time thinking about the spread of #Misinformation, the #ScienceOfScience, and #PhilosophyOfScience. I do a lot of #BirdPhotography and love #ravens, #crows, and all #corvids.

For your trouble, here's a perfect crow.

Contrary to popular belief, it is a very good thing if your neurodivergent friend is infodumping. This is a sign that the friend in question trusts you and feels safe. This is a good state to be in.

Someone informed me a few days ago that in our game Freedom Planet 2, which has a parry mechanic, you can parry the damage from drowning underwater

You can *parry drowning*

I love video games

OKAY, #fedimins! I got some good news.

There's an upcoming course with the Anti-Racist Classroom, for Community and Moderation. They had Admins and Moderators in mind for this course.

"Antiracism and Communicating Online
In this two part series, come together in community to discuss and problem solve the challenges of communicating and moderating online with an antiracist lens."

This classroom is aimed at white people. The courses are discussion based, so there's no sequential curriculum, You can sign up as long as you have a commitment to Anti-racism (that means awareness of your actions in this case, and willingness to keep growing)

The first cohort is on the 20th and 27th of December (the two parts, one on each)

You can view more info, and how to sign up here:

It's a paid course, and luckily there is a stipend if you can't afford it.
You can even donate some money to help other people attend the course.

I took my first anti-racist course with them (their 101 course) back in January this year.

If there's still interest, but these dates don't work for you, because it's short notice or anything else, they will be looking for more opportunities in the new year. So still let them know!
