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:
