Monday is January's #FullMoon — the #WolfMoon.

It's now exactly 2 #lunar cycles to the #TotalLunarEclipse on 2025 Mar 14, the Night of the #KrononautMoon, and our invitation to #TimeTravelers to come visit or send us a #quantum #signal. (To be followed by 2 more Total Lunar Eclipses in the next year!)

Here's our extended version #Checklist for the Night of the Krononaut Moon, a celebration of Time Travel. (Original post located here: me.dm/@KronoMoon/1136102025338).

☑️ Coming our way next on 2025 Mar 14 #UTC 07:00, 2 months from now.

☑️ #Observe the #Moon & #stars that night, wherever & however you like, with friends & colleagues or on your own. Local #times flexible.

☑️ #Connect with the #cosmos & with your #past & #future #selves. Send a #signal to #beings in the #future(s). #Candles & safe #campfires are good; #music & #dancing are good; #radio #wave #antennas are good. Be experimental!

☑️ Click & share many #photos of the #Moon, with you (and your #family / #pets) under it — what we call a #Moonsie — and any nearby #UFOs. Share your #images with @KronoMoon & @KronoMoonPhotos.

☑️ #Enjoy a deepened #moment of #peace, #love, #authenticity & #meaning, with other #Mastodonians around the #world & #beyond — wherever you are.

As we close in on 1000 Vote Forward letters, I got a bit frustrated trying to track progress on the site. I made a little tool to help me, and maybe others.

I would once have documented this tool as a bookmarklet but nowadays it seems easier to just explain how to open a dev console and copy/paste the code. Bookmarklets still do work, but it's gotten harder to explain how to install them!

I’m impressed by Abrome, an alternative K-12 school in Austin, Texas, that has had ✨zero✨ COVID-19 cases throughout the pandemic, just by sticking to protocol: abrome.com/layers-of-protectio

TL;DR: the entire school masks (N95+), rooms are ventilated with CO2 monitors ensuring <800ppm, daily screening and surveillance testing, vaccines mandated. The 22-page plan is available at the link above.
