Dear Self -- you have difficulty with long term memory, so here is a note for Future Logan:

You signed up for Twitter in February 2009. You never found a healthy relationship with the place and you don't like how much of your attention it has captured.

Twitter runs on monetizing attention and you refuse to help enrich #FascistSpaceKaren. You no longer spend any time on this site. You left this thread as a note to your future self, and you left your mastodon profile (https://t.co/CPjnQVMJyX) in bio for automated discovery.

4/4

So you moved over to #hachyderm for now, though you will probably run your own via https://t.co/vpIooqnixr or some similar service eventually.

You deleted all tweets older than 1 week from this account using #TweetDelete. This was your profile pre-changes.

post-twitter social internet platform adoption discourse often relies on comparisons to twitter and other status quo institutions. 👎

we must imagine a future for the People's social internet that is fully liberated from the oppressive ideals of today. 👍

This is how you sold peppermint schnapps in 1987.

“If we all rode bikes like the Dutch, annual global emissions would drop nearly 700 million tonnes. This mammoth figure exceeds the entire carbon footprint of most countries, including the UK, Canada, Saudi Arabia & Australia.” Via @euronews

Many cultures have their own traditions of nature therapy and self-care.

For the Japanese, it’s shinrin-yoku (forest bathing). For the Dutch, it’s uitwaaien (out-blowing); a kind of wind bath.

In both cases, access for everyone is considered, not just those with access to cars.

.@BicycleDutch observes a key difference on a cross-border cycle route:

In Belgium (top), even the most minor crossing streets had priority over the cycle route.

In the Netherlands (bottom), priority on most minor crossings is given to the cycle route.

In 2019, @AmsterdamNL equipped 700 cyclists with a device that allowed them to "ping" when encountering a complicated, clumsy or unsafe traffic situation.

36,460 events were registered, which will inform upgrades to their bike network in the years ahead.

There is a curious phenomenon that results from the relatively brief window of time a single human lifetime provides: we perceive the current state of the natural world as “normal”.

This is known as the Shifting Baseline Syndrome. 🧵

Where did the pandemic begin?

Was it from nature or a lab?

Since the start, this fundamental question has gone unanswered.

Until now.

Out in @ScienceMagazine: SARS-CoV-2 emerged into humans via the live animal trade at the Huanan Seafood Market.
