Oops! We completely forgot Mellie's 10th anniversary of first publication. Yes, indeed, "Soft Pink Rain" (by Ginger Amelia Sprockette) was published 11 years ago on April 15, 2014 and we completely forgot to tell everyone about it... Yes it would have been more "timely" if we had remembered last year, but there you go; amnesiac rodents!)

I can’t believe EchoFeed is already 1 year old!

Thank you @robb for making such a wonderful and easy service. It has been so easy to use and something quite frankly I could live without!

Looking for something that allows you to share content to multiplaces (even the Fediverse)? I highly suggest you give EchoFeed a try.

Happy 160th anniversary of a bunch of murderous cowards finally giving up on the idea that they should own other human beings.

"The Battle of Appomattox Court House [...] was the final engagement of Confederate General in Chief Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia before they surrendered to the Union Army of the Potomac under the Commanding General of the United States Army, Ulysses S. Grant."

"3rd anniversary of the liberation of Bucha" [ ± 1min]

Quote by ki:
"Mar 31, 2025
March 31st marks the third anniversary of the liberation of Bucha, a Kyiv Oblast town where Russian forces massacred hundreds of civilians during the occupation in early 2022.
Bucha was liberated after Ukrainian forces repelled Russia at the battle of Kyiv, forcing Moscow's forces to withdraw and leading to the discovery of the massacres."

Fancy #cotton bow tie for him (I will teach him to tie it later), fancy cotton #yarn for me because whatever the anniversary material you can pretty much guarantee I'll be excited for craft supplies.

Also had some garlic bread. Nice.

BTW, did I mention ALMA is now officially 12 years old? On March 13th, 2013, ALMA was famously commanded by then President Sebastián Piñera to point to the galactic center!

Since then, ALMA has been delivering stunning science year after year, and during Cycle 10 we managed to provide more than 4250 hours of quality data to our Principal Investigators, our highest number ever!
