@brianbeutler i’ve always thought that about Presbyterians. I mean, who the fuck came up with that name for a religion?

Facebook and Twitter boil down to really just being server farms with billboards. Gotta have infrastructure or they just don't operate. The is incredible, but the beast will need to be fed, so to speak. The interface that Facebook or Twitter provide is really not much more than what Mastodon has, but they host the servers and they (ehem) do content moderation; what all of us want and expect. My prediction is that we will have a two-tiered, federated model where you can choose to pay to host or be hosted on a federated server, or you can join an ad driven server with your federated based avatar free of charge.

For #AcademicToots #AcademicMastodon I’m wondering if universities established dot edu masto instances that we adopted, this could supplant paid #BlueCheck #BlueTick verifications as a de facto employer verification in the #Fediverse, at least for our sector.

#WhoGoesNazi read this piece, written by the first female journalist to be expelled from Nazi Germany, #DorothyThompson she sets the reader up at a gala. Each person we meet is a letter of the alphabet. Which letter would you be most similar to? Your neighbor? Brother? Auntie? (Ps. I don’t know who shared it first, but thank you. It is so helpful to understand the human nature, & background that helps create the #Nazi).

What is this? A 1930s radio show?
He really has no idea what he bought does he?

Then they came for the surrealists,
And I did not speak out,
Because my tuba was on fire.

@StillIRise1963
I actually think, maybe, they are trying to commandeer it.

Of course, you know the difference between a pizza and a drummer?

Pizza can feed a family of four.

Elon Musk only bans Black nazis. The rest are fine with him.

Legit question: When is it finally time to walk away, no matter what it says about "ceding ground." Because if the Daily Stormer aint it what is? If you're still there (I am) whats the line? Asking for real. mediaite.com/online/elon-musk-
