What's the best way to describe spousal/partnered support when referencing heterosexual partners?
Enjoying messing around with #ChatGPT to build curricula. The making up of sources tickles me. Like please stop making stuff up.
As most of you know, our library is being sued by 4 corporate publishers who want to stop the Internet Archive from lending books. The date for oral argument has just been set for March 20.
What's at stake? Lia Holland from @team elaborates: https://www.fightforthefuture.org/news/2023-02-23-statement-major-decision-on-libraries-digital-rights-a-step-closer-on-march-20
@MLE_online that's pretty cool. It's like Pandora music but for art. Will there be an app?
@Noupside smh. Then what when she counter sues?
I'm so excited about this paper we are wrapping up.
What books do you prefer to read aside academic authors?
@bookstodon kindly reshare after voting.
I’m not one to demand content warnings but I’m wishing more of you would consider using one if you’re going to post descriptions of Tyre Nichols’s death.
Consider that there are many Black folks and PoC who are activated, triggered, and/or traumatized by these events and are trying to keep ourselves and our people safe. Safe from state-sanctioned harm and from the videos that document it.
If you need to watch the video or write detailed posts about it, please do so with care.
Scary.
"The number of Dutch adults who believe the Holocaust is a myth was higher than any country previously surveyed"
"These numbers are higher among Dutch Millennials and Gen Z, where nearly one-quarter (23%) believe the Holocaust is a myth or the number of Jews killed has been greatly exaggerated, while 12% are unsure."
"22% of Millennials and Gen Z feel it is acceptable for an individual to support neo-Nazi views"
Sharing this "Filming Protests and Demonstrations in the U.S." tip sheet by Witness just in case. Stay safe everyone!

New #data out on #Vaccination rates and nursing home residents. Happy to contribute to this article in The 19th. Https://19thnews.org/2023/01/covid-booster-rates-nursing-homes-aarp
It's real. It's really real.

Alabama Department of Corrections will no longer track the number of deaths in prisons by month. “The story itself was a shock to me considering how terrible things are within the department." DOC ended the fiscal year with 225 deaths in state prisons.

@ChrisFriese_RN for sure. Its very good.
Every faculty member and doctoral student in a university school of nursing should read Dominique Tobbell's new book Dr. Nurse. Not only is it a great read is critical history as we think about the path forward for our discipline.
@vmcintosh well that explains why we switched providers on the first.
On #scienceTwitter, my favourite thing was reading and, on rare occasions, writing "paper/preprint threads". From the researchers I followed and through the #Twitter algorithm, this became my most important source for new #research.
While people start to do the same on #Mastodon, I have the feeling that I miss important work bc no algorithm "saves" it for me if I don't watch my timeline constantly.
Two simple solutions would be: a commonly accepted hashtag that everybody uses when writing "paper threads" or an [...] @ a.gup.pe group with a similar adaptation rate.
#Question 1: is there already a mechanism for this that I missed?
#Question 2: What hashtag or group name?
I saw #TootPrint before. Maybe #PaperInAToot? #PaperInAPost? #PaperInAThread? #PaperPost? #MastoPrint?
Suggestions and boosts, please, we need reach for this! 🤓
