@Surasanji Now, did he/she/they get some of that coffee that you had on the desk? 😜

@akashpunera Yes, and on a good way, I think. 😃

Welcome, Akash.

@nlvraoin This server had 174 new users joining in the last day.

Surely there's something bring all these people in, right? 😃

It's like Twitter, but with less corporate control or aggravating, radicalized users. More moderation, and each server controlling what their place looks and feels like.

Cory Doctorow's review of Edward Snowden's "Permanent Record" book is very good. The book is on my wishlist.

"Just one set of numbers, from the University of California, Berkeley, economist Gabriel Zucman:

The 400 richest Americans — the top .00025 percent of the population — now own more of the country’s riches than the 150 million adults in the bottom 60 percent of wealth distribution. The 400’s share has tripled since the 1980s."

@mostlystardust Been reading a lot on the mastodon feedlines since getting started here last week. I had just finished "Code Ezra" by Gay Courter. An interesting read.

@Surasanji I haven't seen it mentioned yet (usually Mango, mint, menthol mentions) but it would be a good idea.

Sure would help sell more coffee, once people vapped it, want the real thing.

@Surasanji LOL, Yeah, I imagined that. I just thought it could be a good complimentary line for the company. Here, buy some coffee to go with your vapping supplies. Ca-shing.... 🏧

@Surasanji Juul Coffee, what an idea.

@netkitty poor kitty. Is a belly rub ok?

@Grootoq I hope so too, only have been here for a few days, but I like it. Have fun and welcome!

@jnlsosses Hola jnlsosses!

Quizá se añades una leyenda en Ingles más personas comprendan la mensage?

Bienvenido.
