Hi all - just a wee plug for my #art website which I’ve just spent all day updating! I’m a #doctor by day (and night), but an #artist in my dreams! I #draw mostly #portraiture and #Aotearoa #NZ, but have some statement pieces too.
If you felt comfortable, I’d really appreciate a #boost to get myself out on to #Mastodon’s art instances and on to people’s federated timelines. Meri Kirihimete all! X
@mydogwrotethis a lot of us are in that same situation. Fascinating insight, isn't it?
@mayahustle It sorta depends on your end goal. Since I am blogging with no interest in payment or building a digital newsletter while keeping cost as close to zero as possible, I eschewed Substack and self-hosted Wordpress. I am using Blogger as my primary site, and Wordpress.com as my backup. I wrote about it here - https://www.mguhlin.org/2022/12/switching-blog-platforms.html
Today I said goodbye to Twitter (at least until things... doubtful... improve), and I think #TwitterMigration will increase, so another introduction!
I'm an information science professor who researches #techethics #aiethics #onlinecommunities #hci #cseducation and #fandom (also, at least once, all of those things at the same time!)
I also do a lot of science communication (and occasional silliness) on #TikTok (@professorcasey) and my #YouTube (CaseyFieslerPhD) is full of #gradschool advice!
@jnyrose @herr_sander @edutooter @edutooters That’s hilarious! Thanks for sharing your experiences.
Mastodon relay functions download all subject matter posts from relay server/instances.
I think the user algorithms add enough general posts.
So, I'm working on adding something that will just grab #Native #NativeMastodon #Indigenous #IndigenousMastodon posts from other selected server/instances.
These posts will import into the Federated timeline for https://Mvskoke.social users.
@yehuda Great explanation. Thanks. It is quite sobering, heartbreaking to read the real purpose behind what I was taught in fake history classes in American high school.

@regeneratedarts write a blog entry then send them a link to that…I do that with https://go.mgpd.org/feditoots - I can’t imagine Twitter will check every bit of content on internet to decide if it contains Mastodon info. And since it is not a Mastodon link, no filter will catch it. At least, for now. 😀
Long quote from fascinating article
@DrCAleaseSmith Thanks! This quote captures it: “White America can continue living within a fantasy of an inclusive nation while remaining outside of the realm of inclusivity and inclusion, because they do not include themselves among the diverse, will never include themselves among the diverse, and will therefore never be inclusive, but will maintain themselves in a space where segregation persists, separate and perpetually exclusive.”

Hi folks! New here so I'll post a little #introduction. I'm an activist, musician and writer based in Boston. I help run @team . I write poppy queer political punk songs and have a few albums out on Get Better Records & Don Giovanni Records (read more about that here https://pitchfork.com/reviews/albums/evan-greer-spotify-is-surveillance/). I care a lot about the ways tech policy impacts LGBTQ+ folks & other marginalized communities. I'm starting to think through a book project exploring abolitionist tech policy. Happy to be here! <3
I have a surprise for you all. 😏
I've committed someone to create a proper logo for #Sengi.
I didn't go the "contest" way because it leads to make people work for free. So I found someone that has a nice portfolio and paid upfront.
He just sent me the result, I'm waiting for the final files but... here it is! 😀
@MBLee@universeodon.com @oneunderscore__ so mote it be 🤣
@herr_sander @edutooter @edutooters To be clear, I didn’t come up with it. The author is on the document. That aside, it was interesting and worth sharing. I haven’t formed an opinion yet. 🙂
I love to read, learn, and write about it. "The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best." -Epictetus #Quotes #Stoic #mastodon
