2/ I give up. Everything's so glitchy right now because of the (very good) problem of the overwhelming #TwitterExodus that I can't keep track.
If I follow you on the hellsite, let me know. Thanks.
NBC News, meanwhile, has responded by suspending one of its journalists who has reported on Twitter and been harshly critical of Musk. NBC News temporarily suspended tech reporter Ben Collins from NBC and MSNBC airwaves

FRIENDS: We are MeidasTouch, the unapologetically pro-democracy organization many of you know from Twitter, YouTube and elsewhere.
With the chaos at Twitter, we want to build our platform here on Mastodon to make sure we can continue to spread our message.
Can you please BOOST this post, FOLLOW our account and encourage your followers to do the same?
After being banned from Twitter I’ve done about 20 interviews with reporters around the world. They all ask:
If I get my account back, will I stay on Twitter? Unless Elon Musk makes a dramatic course change, I don't know why anyone—journalist or otherwise—would feel comfortable investing a single tweet into the hands of this volatile totalitarian. I won't delete my Twitter account, but Mastodon is home going forward.
Perhaps it's a good time to re-introduce the Mastodon "List" feature. I love it and it works fabulously in the "Advanced Web Mode". Nowadays, every time I follow someone I immediately add them to a list, or multiple lists.
Each list (3-4 at a time) can be "Pinned" to your view; and can be pinned or unpinned any time you like - depending on your mood.
I mainly use my own "Home List" and can run it next to the standard Home view to make adjustments.
Give it a try. Here's a list of my lists.

Whilst Mastodon has been suspended from #Twitter, it had been trending all day.
That only ever works out for #Mastodon. 🖖

What. The. Ever loving FUCK?! Yet another reason to divest yourself of #Google!!! You file a legitimate #chargeback against Google for legitimate reasons and Google will ban/ delete/ cancel your account! You will lost access to EVERYTHING even remotely attached to that account.
Well fuck the ever loving shit out of this!
My #1 goal now for 2023 is to completely divest myself of Google and anything remotely affiliated with it. Also means installing #GrapheneOS on my phone too.
Fuck them.
Fuck this.
Also: For Sale in the very near future… (3) Google Homes, (3) Google Home Minis, (1) Google Home Display, (1) Google Nest Max Display, (1) Pixel Watch.
welcome, new Mastodoners. Some (serious) advice:
1. Include an image and a bio. I'm not inclined to follow you back if you don't.
2. If you follow me, I don't feel obligated to follow you back. If I follow you, you don't have to follow me back. It's not a high-school cafeteria social scene. Personally, I'm trying to keep my follow list manageable.
3. Try to spend a month Mastodoning before sharing all your great ideas about things that should change to make it more like the bird site.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A 56 yo survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
