⬆️ Check this out tomorrow. Lozier writes perceptive and nuanced histories of French-Indigenous relations. This will doubtlessly be a great talk. @histodons

Take a deep breath.

I shouted for joy when I read this great justice.

"Uber and Lyft to pay $328 million for stealing $ from their drivers"

"Of the incalculable amount of money stolen from drivers by Uber and Lyft through various accounting shenanigans, $328m will be paid back to them..."

" . . in what New York Attorney General Letitia James called the largest wage-theft settlement her office has ever secured."

Applicable EVERYWHERE.

Another good question to ask, legally speaking...

Did Amazon Prime let content providers know in advance that they were giving Amazon the right to run ads in their content?

How do they feel about this?

@neilhimself , any thoughts about having Good Omens chopped up with ads?! Will any of the revenue make its way back to cast & crew?

neilhimself ,
@neilhimself@mastodon.social avatar

@KraftTea I don't know anything about it.

KraftTea OP ,
@KraftTea@mastodon.social avatar

@neilhimself I didn't think they would tell their major content creators... even you.

It feels like a kind of unfair jab at both writers and actors, which Amazon will likely blame, in part, on the strike.

It certainly makes me want to cancel my subscription with them, and just watch their content in a different way, when I want to watch it at all... which presumably hurts anything negotiated, such as residuals.

If I wanted to pay for ads, I'd still be on Twitter.

A post from February:
Charles Henry Turner was a pioneer in entomology - and he couldn't get a job in higher ed, so he taught high school biology.

"Across his distinguished 33-year career, Turner authored 71 papers and was the first African American to have his research published in the prestigious journal Science."

His simple but elegant experiments in public parks revolutionized understanding of bees.

I love this study. It emphasizes how vital written communication is to autistic people. (If your business or service requires a phone call or an in-person interaction, it's not accessible to us.)

Also, it's the kind of research we need more of: not about how to "fix" us, but about what we want, and who we are. There are still people out there who think that we can't even have our own opinions, that we're just parroting what we've been told. There are still people out there who believe autism is a learning disability or a disease!
