Good morning cosoβ˜•

Light snow falling today to add to the snow on the ground. The chilly cold weather has arrived.

Hope your day is a good one whatever you have planned.

Off to read some fiction and hope the snow doesn't accumulate much more.

We watched a movie called "Reptile"

Could have run a bit smoother identifying characters at first but overall a good story and acting.

Also.... HOLY CRAP! Thank you!

Brazil’s first lady, Janja Lula da Silva, swore while addressing billionaire Elon Musk during a G20 event on the weekend, at which she spoke about the need to regulate social media to rein in misinformation.

A ship’s horn sounded as she spoke Saturday and she joked, β€œI think it’s Elon Musk,” before adding, β€œI’m not afraid of you, f**k you, Elon Musk.”

Musk, owner of social network X, reacted to a video of her remarks by posting a laughing out loud

Hm. Seems like this could be a threat to CoSo if its data is held on US-headquartered cloud (AWS). Maybe I’m reading too much into this? CoSo fam with better knowledge, what say you? I don’t know the legal details of Section 230?
β€œ β€œCongress should do so by ensuring that Internet companies no longer have carte blanche to censor protected speech while maintaining their Section 230 protections,” he wrote in Project 2025.” cnn.com/2024/11/18/media/brend

10 to 15 cm of snow predicted. Going to get cold this week brrrr.

Chose which new microwave to get hubby has gone to pick it up at a store near us. Miss ours for reheating our oatmeal hubby makes enough of steel cut oats for the week for us.

Watched the usa news this morning and wish I had not... Oklahoma Education choosing 500 Trump bibles for their intended curriculum based on religion.

πŸ‘€ peeking inπŸ‘€

I have been in hockey games since early am into now.

Exciting games but a lot of sitting.

Some good social time too.

Time to try and sleep early hockey game tomorrow followed by afternoon game.

Sleep well when you do!

I have a blue air 311+max air filter and it is now showing the pm 2.5 as excellent.

Great news after the smoky day!!

Over the years, in my β€œwelcome new folks” posts, I have often referred to CoSo as an oasis in the soc med desert.

It’s not hyperbole or an exaggerationβ€”the beauty, importance and value grows as the malignant shadows of politics creep wider.

Even if you’re not into the β€œwoo-woo” of community and this platform exceeds all others when it comes to overall integrity, features, & user safety.

I’m so grateful for J’s hard work and all the people who show up to make this home.
