Looks like I might just hit 30K followers in the next 3 days or so at current rates... Who wants to have a beer to celebrate?

@freemo @arinbasu @SteveZissou I’m very new here, but must say I’m loving this server! Excited to be part of such a great community which is not something I’ve felt on social media before! 🤩

@DrK

It makes me really happy to hear that. Me and many others here have committed a lot of effort to try to have a community mature enough to talk and not fight, to be respectful and decent without the need for much if any censorship (there is always the occasional bad actor, but its rare).

Myself and im sure my fellow long-time qoto members all appreciate very much hearing that you feel safe and at home here, and most important, you are happy to be here.

Did I mention I'm a #DoctorWho geek?! Here's my #TARDIS Console (It's the real one from the Paul McGann 1996 TV Movie)

I guess that’s it for today 🥱😴 - have a great evening all!

As someone with Stage 4 cancer, I was really struck by this quote at the beginning of Mukherjee's "The Emperor of All Maladies:"

"Illness is the night-side of life, a more onerous citizenship. Everyone who is born holds dual citizenship, in the kingdom of the well and in the kingdom of the sick. Although we all prefer to use only the good passport, sooner or later each of us is obliged, at least for a spell, to identify ourselves as citizens of that other place." -- Susan Sontag

Hello to all our new followers! Watch this space for news, campaigns and that all important #nature and #wildlife content.

Oh gosh today’s #florespondence is beyond delightful. It’s beardie season! These are #calochilus genus and they are some of my absolute faves. Look at this little face!

We’ve got Copper Beard (the real gnome-ish ones) and Red Beards here. Cannot capture the iridescence of these beauties.

"Steep Street," from Dinotopia: The World Beneath. The two kids in the striped pajamas are my sons, who stayed up late to pose for this picture.

@felicityhannah I’ve not felt the need to go on the Dead Bird site today. I’ve gained some followers to engage with. I’ve found excellent people to follow. I don’t miss the aggro or the adds!

Good #evening everyone! Hope you have all had a good day today!

Just wanted to check in and also let you know that before we said “cheese” for photographs people would say “prunes”! This was because it kept the upper lip stiff and limited the ability to smile which was considered childish and immature!

So if you ever need a perfect-pout say the word “prunes” and the photographer won’t know what hit em! 📸😗

Just found this gorgeous shot of when I was playing Mr Wormwood in Matilda in April 2012. Cannot wait for the movie of the musical with the mighty Stephen Graham as Mr W.

Hi. I'm a Twitter escapee although still on there for now @marilynholnes11 Would love to follow & be followed by like-minded people. Send me a toot to say hi.
Bonjour à tous. Je suis un évadé de Twitter bien que toujours là pour le moment @mailynholnes11 J'adorerais suivre et être suivi par des personnes partageant les mêmes idées. Envoyez-moi un toit pour dire salut.

Mastodon is such a soothing experience. Slowly detoxing from “The Bird”. Wishing you all a fabulous Wednesday.
