Veronica Explains<p>Friendly reminder that you should consider everything you say on the Fediverse to be publicly available and archived by your adversaries, who can and will use it against you.</p><p>"Quiet public" isn't saving you from that. "Followers-only" isn't saving you from that. Don't assume your DMs are private either.</p>
Ryan Clough :scremcat:<p>I immensely despise LinkedIn as a form of social media. I typically make a point to avoid it as much as I can.</p><p>…and…</p><p>As a recently jobless person, LinkedIn is a relatively frictionless way for me to get in touch with former coworkers/managers to push on potential job leads, and it has been invaluable for me in that respect.</p><p>I limit my &quot;connections&quot; only to people I actively know. I don&#39;t interact with long-form posts and opinions. I only post myself when I am actively looking, want to bump someone else who&#39;s looking, or maybe to congratulate someone on a new role.</p><p>I mostly avoid the &quot;Feed&quot; page. I don&#39;t contribute to the &quot;Voice your opinion!&quot; requests. I unfollow any of my former coworkers who cause a lot of &quot;noise&quot; by constantly interacting. In short, I take a very &quot;Fedi&quot; approach to LinkedIn timeline, and I think it works.</p><p>Dismissing other forms of social media as inferior is easy, but also a waste. Spend some time putting other forms of social media to work in a way that gives you what you want/need.</p>

Bronwyn Harris<p>Today I worked with a third grader on multiplication. I told him that zero was an easy one to remember because it made all other numbers turn to zero. 4 x 0? Zero. A million times zero? Zero. I said, "Zero is a bully that way."</p><p>He said, "But in addition, zero never gets anywhere. It doesn't change a number at all. I think that's how it became evil; the wretched origin of zero." (yes, he really said that)</p><p>I said, "That sounds like a great story to write.</p><p>His eyes LIT UP and he said, "Please can I write that story?" When I agreed, he said "THIS is why I LOVE going to Bronwyn!"</p><p>The story is barely started but includes the lines: </p><p>“Zilch had a wretched soul because nobody wants to be zilch” </p><p>(That was because it doesn’t change the number in addition)</p><p>"But one day he discovered ’times’ and what it can do” (change all the other numbers to zero)</p><p>And then zilch laughs an evil laugh.</p>
