@npub1hgr…2e7r Content warnings go at the beginning, not the end. Your Mastodon client should have a mechanism for adding them that hides your message until someone consents to read it as well.

@npub1c5c…644a @npub1tre…x5pn I encountered a black bear in NC. It smiled as it ran by. Terrifyingly fast. Taller than a great dane, the size that would look down at a tall person if standing on hind legs. They are all over Asheville, as hundreds have been GPS tagged, but people hardly ever encounter them, and injury to humans is very rare. I am not sure if PNW black bears are the same kind or not.

@npub1vt6…w2mw I love them all. I vote for the Combestone tor. It has a wonderful detailed symmetry and an expansive vista.

@npub1cme…w4rh Maybe the firmware updated? If so there should be a lot of people with the same problem right now.

@npub152w…3tcl Some lists of science and journalism accounts.
People can share follows with you as a CSV file you can upload on web.
The other method is to copy someone’s address @name@servername and paste that into the search in the app or web browser you’re signed in with.

Michael Osterholm, Minnesota's longtime infectious disease specialist and Biden White House adviser:
“Over the next several months, we're about to see the public health system in this country systematically dismantled. I've never seen anything like this in my 48 years in the business”
"Please get boosted. We're already seeing the XBB booster may have some good protection.”

@npub1c5c…644a Thanks for sharing some of your views. I need some vicarious and aspirational hiking in my life.
That rock field trail looks pretty scary even under your very good weather and lighting conditions. Glad you are okay!
