This is gonna be juicy

Super interesting how climate change seems to be effecting different areas. While your July is cool and wet this year, a lot of the US and northern hemisphere in general has had record heat waves and wildfires in areas that are normally cool and wet. Go figure lol

Great pic!

How does it normally look? I’m from the Pacific Northwest in the states so the waterfalls here almost always look like this

Can anyone help explain how to find content worth following on Mastodon? I made an account today and despite going through the #explore category I’m finding it difficult to find content or people I want to follow. The few things I’ve found end up just being Lemmy communities which kind of defeats the purpose of having a mastadon account at all… maybe it’s because I never had a Twitter, but the Lemmy/reddit/forum layout makes much more sense to me

Agreed. Id take a step further even though. What one does for WORK to provide for themselves doesn’t give them value either. For example, a doctor, paramedic or nurse can save a life in the course of their work which adds value to others and may provide purpose to the healthcare worker - but ultimately it’s a dangerous trap to begin believing that this is inherently their value as humans. We all have a value by just existing, experiencing and interacting together. Our society has made it so that one of the questions we ask first is “what do you do for work?” Because we so often wrap up our profession in our identity and value

Not a techie. Paramedic / firefighter - I’m not the most tech literate, but I manage to get by lol

What is the next step in challenging this? Can they continue ue to do this indefinitely? It’s amazing that there is no real enforcement to an order from the Supreme Court. Republicans want it both ways… Use their packed court to force unpopular opinions on everyone else and ignore any rulings they don’t like. This is fucked
