Elon spends so much time on Twitter, how does he get any actual work done? Doesn’t he own a couple of other companies that need his attention or nah?

#JohnMastodon really isn't getting the level of appreciation that he deserves, if we're all being honest with ourselves.

Having a mastodon account is like being a thought dj.

Please y’all don’t spend the next 24 hours “unpacking” why this dudes behavior has/does not align with his words

There was NO “free speech” mission

Just a guy…and some friends…high off their own bullshit with enough wealth to make holding them accountable beyond challenging

I just keep having to tell myself it's better now than in the late 80s.

But is it really? Or are there just more of us screaming into the void about the injustice with no real movement?

Needless to say, Mastodon is different and better. It’s tempting to say that it’s better because of the chronological timeline, or its federated nature, etc.

But really, it’s better because we’re better people here.

Remember this, and burn it into your brain if you have to: THERE ARE NO PURELY TECHNOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS TO SOCIETAL PROBLEMS. Ultimately, we can’t code around racism or misogyny or ableism or homophobia or transphobia. That’s on us.

I’m actually in time for #caturday
This is Faran. She doesn’t get shown as much because she spends most of her time in her little heated Hut of Evil. Hobbies include costing us thousands at the vet, yelling from the top of the stairs and taking trips to pee on the only carpet in the house.

How books get scanned.

My dumbass always pictured an old librarian with gloves at the copy/scanning machining having to redo it over and over because it scanned crooked.

Let’s get this straight, once and for all: Hate speech is not free speech, it’s the perversion of free speech.

I’ll be in Ukraine through the holidays and hope to give you a little slice of how Christmas and New Years is observed in a time of war.

I’m sure there will be some shivering but I’ve also already tracked down a small bowl of pho

Reporters going back to Musk's Twitter after being "allowed" back on is a case study in how abusive relationships persist.
