I just don't seem to have the followbot problem so many are complaining of. Like in my real life, I'm just not that popular, I guess.
I love that the cool kids on Mastodon are the queer anarchist French witches. :heart_eyes:
it's so bizarre that everyone's judgment of mastodon's success uses the same rubric as twitter's success.
for me, marginalized ppl feeling loved, cared for, and supported in a radical, restorative space is a success and I don't think forbes will ever understand that
@rhorsman Start small and don't push yourself and get hurt! That's advice I'm trying to take, getting back in to physical therapy. I always want to see results, do a lot the first few days and hurt myself :-P
PSA: support your sysadmins

@gayatri I think that cat disapproves of romance. :-)

@fennec My hair isn't even that long and I feel the same.
Your apartment walls are thin when....

@emdeesee Right? I'm learning that the hard way.
@drjeats Yes, although I think I need to rewatch the end. I maaaaay have fallen asleep and missed it. Whoops!
So #tusky started to work with octodon.social but there was no update. I guess the instance admin did something about the auth and SSL setup.
nevertheless, it's great news that it works now!
@max It's not Idaho. Idaho exists. It's North's Dakota that's the conspiracy of cartographers.
@rhorsman This has been my life for the last couple years. Sometimes the right word never comes back. Aging is no joke, man.
@emily She's the best, really.
