datum (n=1)the thing about echo chambers, is they reflect back what is put into them, "with character" - think of how a choir sounds in a cathedral, versus outsidenonsense in, nonsense with character outBUTglorious, coordinated, beautiful voices in? Reverberating, amplified, beauty out!what I'm getting at is: yeah, places within Mastodon & Fediverse are clearly echo chambersbut the voices in this concert hall are beautiful singly, and in harmony, and in dissonance. Songs that reflect the human condition, and broader reality.It's not misleading to be in an echo chamber where "2+2=4"[*] and "what does the evidence say" are mantras.I'm sure this is not an original thought, thanks to whoever (in this echo chamber!) planted it in my brain however long ago.[*] <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/masksWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#masksWork</a> and <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/CovidIsNotOver" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#CovidIsNotOver</a> !

Maggie Maybe<a href="https://mastodon.cloud/@raymondpert" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@raymondpert</a> “The letter also demands that Columbia ban masks on campus meant to conceal the wearer’s identity ‘or intimidate others,’ adopt a new definition of antisemitism, abolish its current process for discipliningstudents and deliver a plan to ‘reform undergraduate admissions, international recruiting, and graduate admissions practices.’”Ew. Just in time for them all to get measles.But back to the topic at hand, this is a great way to ruin people’s lives. Anyone in those programs is not matriculated if those programs end, meaning their student loan grace period or repayment starts. And if they’re on a student visa . . . idk but this is life ruining for people who have invested years working towards these degrees.<a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/StudentLoans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StudentLoans</a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/columbiauniversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#columbiauniversity</a> <a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/MasksWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MasksWork</a>

Maggie Maybe<a href="https://mastodon.nz/@pezmico" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@pezmico</a> I am excited to see so many Novids. 💚 I know a lot of people don’t believe us, but I have more than 100 photos of negative Covid tests I’ve taken over the years. And since I’m already disabled by MECFS I wear a mask literally everywhere, I haven’t eaten in a restaurant or had coffee in a coffee shop since 2019, and I would know it if I got infected. I crash if I laugh on the phone with a friend too long, there’s no way I would have an asymptomatic infection ever.<a href="https://zeroes.ca/tags/MasksWork" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#MasksWork</a>

🎤🧹Pop quiz: There's a costume party in 2 hours, and all you have is a pair of cat ears and a 3D printer. What do you do?We were invited to a birthday party over the weekend, and the hostess wanted everyone to come in "party animal" costumes, even if you "just throw on those old black cat ears you got for Halloween".<a href="https://infosec.exchange/@llorenzin" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@llorenzin</a> and I would be masking, since the party would be a bunch people in a small apartment, and I got to thinking about what I could do to add to those "old black cat ears" from the Halloween box...One of my protective masks has a SIP valve for drinking using a small straw. While out running on Friday, I thought about how could replace the SIP cover with one of my own design, adding an arch that could be used to hold some pipe cleaners as whiskers.We ended up with a very busy Saturday, but with a couple hours to go before the party, I pulled out my calipers, pulled up Tinkercad, and threw together a simple design for a cover with an arch (made of just 3 basic geometric shapes plus cutouts).My first two prints failed because I didn't slice it with supports under the arch, and the "arch" ended up as a big ugly glob of plastic. Doh! After re-slicing with supports, it printed great. The fit over the SIP valve was good, and it worked just the way I had hoped!

Maggie MaybeWelp, it doesn’t sound like anyone showed up to speak for the kids. The death cult is going to win this one.I guess nobody told this horrible woman that magical thinking doesn’t work. Wanting something to be over and it actually being over aren’t connected with each other when it comes to public health.“Rep.

BroadwaybabytoWorking on article about the slow & painful death of public health and the rise of infectious diseases. The focus is going to be on how fitted respirators can protect from almost all airborne disease, and it’s time we all start wearing them again.I’m hoping it’ll be fun and educational as well as inspire people to take control of their health. There’s so much we can’t control right now, but wearing a mask is something we CAN do. It’s a simple and easy way to protect yourself and your community. What would you most want to know about respies? What do you think people get wrong about masking? What convinced you to start masking again (if you stopped)?

BroadwaybabytoIf you’re not masking because you’re not worried about getting sick…take a beat & realize it’s not just about youI am worried about getting sick. I’m desperately trying to maintain the tiny bit of function I have leftWhen you refuse to mask, you’re choosing to put me at risk. You’re deciding to make public spaces less safe for people like me.

Lars Marowsky-Brée 😷When people ask me about why I wear a mask/respirator "still", I've found much better acceptance when I say that I have a friend with an auto-immune disease that I'm concerned about than when I say that I'm still concerned about <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/sarscov2" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sarscov2</a> <a href="https://mastodon.online/tags/covid19" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#covid19</a>.Suddenly dismissal & mockery turns into concern and support. 🤷 I'll take it.
