If you're a fellow educator, please know that you're not alone. Whether you're in a classroom, the library, the gym, the office, or some other place in your local school, keep your head up!

It's definitely not easy, and there's no shortage of reasons to quit. Yet, for the terms or years that we are there, let's put in our best effort for the kids that we are working with.

On its 10th anniversary, Signal’s president wants to remind you that the world’s most secure communications platform is a nonprofit. It’s free. It doesn’t track you or serve you ads. It pays its engineers very well. And it’s a go-to app for hundreds of millions of people.

While I rarely use it, I still do have a #Mastodon account. When I pulled it up earlier, I saw this at the top of my feed. It looks like they're going the way of Twitter, trying to use algorithms to show me content that they deem more important.

While likely not as evil and insidious as centralized platforms, this is definitely the wrong direction.

If you need another reason to give more of your time and attention to #Nostr, this is it.

Could it be a scam ... or some kind of social engineering attack?

For my fellow educators starting their new academic year in August & September, best of luck to everyone!

This sounds like the opposite of flag theory and all those guys that collect half a dozen or more passports.

Anyway, tell us more!

I'd be curious to see if similar movements pop up in other oppressive or war-torn nations. Some of the first candidates that come to mind are Burma and Vietnam.

Just imagine that, in 50 or 100 years from now, the next generation of Bitcoiners will be making shorts comparing home prices in BTC.

I'll have to admit I've never made it through a full Star Trek Film.

Worth trying again? If so, which should I start?
