@Sustainable2050@mastodon.energyTrump didn't like the fact that the US jobs report showed the weakest pace of hiring for any three-month period since the pandemic recession in 2020.
So he fired the commissioner of the Bureau of Labor Statistics.

@andres4ny@social.ridetrans.itI actually haven't been to Seattle since I left in 2019. I had plans to go back in 2020, but you might remember that a thing happened and instead we spent that year staying home.
We're finally flying out there mid-August to visit.. provided no one gets sick and we don't have a civil war/FAA strike/additional pandemic.

@penguin42@mastodon.org.ukI just found this UK report on #covid epidemiology from 2020 to Dec 2024; the graph I most noticed is below - they looked at blood donors for spike (S) and Nucleo (N) protein antibodies over time; The spike proteins are in both infection and vaccine, while N is infection only - so you can see when people got vaccinated and how now pretty much everyone (95.5% as end of January) has been infected as…

@mxp@mastodon.acm.orgI find it kinda funny that the 2020 MacBook Air—my work machine (albeit with 16 GB of RAM)—is now described as being “still capable at handling basic tasks like a champ, including streaming video, browsing, and dealing with documents.”
I haven’t noticed #Emacs slowing down, so what do people do that needs so much more computing power!?

@davidaugust@mastodon.onlineIn late 2020, I wrote an odd little musing of thoughts. Just re-read it today, and I like these lines:
"Love must have compassion and empathy at its beck and call.
As uncomfortable as truth can so often be, it remains true without any believers, without any champions arguing its case.
Pain is, heartrendingly, unavoidable. Misery is an option we can choose willfully by thinking we know everything and have nothing to learn."

@izzychambers@vivaldi.net@… Our vet used to do house calls (before we switched to her practice), but in 2020 she decided, for obvious reasons, to buy a vet van. It's great. My dog is still nervous, but much better than she would be visiting an office.
@mariyadelano@hachyderm.ioI’m so proud of my little brother.
I just spoke to him in his dorm room at a top 30 college here in the US, he just arrived for freshman orientation.
He got in on a full ride - tuition, housing, food, books, travel, stipend for daily expenses. Won a competitive scholarship to do so.
More than that, he’s had a tougher road than most to get there:
- he had to suddenly move away from Manila, Philippines (where he grew up) in middle school because of COVID restrictions that didn’t let kids go outside (2020)
- then, just as he adjusted to school and a different language in our home country, Ukraine, Russia invaded (2022)
- he stayed in Greece for a month while I was calling our congressional representative here in NY and negotiating with the US embassy to get them a visa ASAP to enter the US and be with me and my husband. There were no paths for Ukrainian refugees yet, we just wanted them with us temporarily for a few months to figure out what options they even had next.
- he had to wait, not going to school, with no clue where they’d move next, until TPS became available to Ukrainians and they got to stay here in the US
- then he had to continue high school in yet another system, yet another country, amidst news of bombings and destruction back home
- my mother wasn’t allowed to work for months while their documents were pending, so we had to raise money with a public GoFundMe campaign and my husband and I maxed out our credit cards to help them get by
- they shared a one-room cottage for the first year, graciously hosted for free by an elderly local couple
- he saw a therapist who also graciously took him in for free while they didn’t have insurance
- he had to graduate high school amidst news of other immigrant students getting arrested, detained, and deported at their own graduations around the country
- he wasn’t sure if he would even make it to college as this administration publicly considered canceling TPS for Ukrainians and cutting off their pathway to maintaining legal status.
We don’t know what tomorrow holds. But he’s there. He’s on campus. He got to go to college.
I love him so much.
