My last toot notwithstanding, this place is only going to survive if we have enough toots about things *other* than Mastodon. Making this up: maybe we should be shooting for a ratio of 10:1 or better for non-Mastodon/Mastodon toots?

In that spirit: I will now proceed to live-toot my work on my book for the rest of the day. Hopefully this will make me *more* productive, not less. #quantum #booklife
