Sitting at the doctor's office. Can't help but wonder how many hours of my life I've wasted trying to get the medication I need instead of dealing with doctors that dance around the real problem, and prescribe half-measures that cause side effects the proper medication wouldn't.
Part of me wants to try to find my existing social media frands on here, but part of me wants to see what kind of tooters I come across, much like I originally did with the bird site.
I have complex thoughts about Mastodon but I'm extremely glad it's being built from the ground up as a _protocol_ rather than as a service. We need more protocols on the internet these days.
You, normally acclimated to society: LOL what a stupid thing to write who would think of that
Me, a world-weary internet traveler: y-yeah... who would think of such a phrase...
With gems like, ""It is decorated in various shades of taupe, biscuit and fuck you," and, "“It’s like eating a condom that’s been left lying about in a dusty greengrocer’s,” this review is a goddamned masterpiece.

I love that the cool kids on Mastodon are the queer anarchist French witches. :heart_eyes:
