A 🧵 on what I want to call #CriticalMastodon. Just a personal view, but without the insight or dress sense of Jacob Bronowski.
I'm going to have to thank @happysinger for his enduring James Bond fixation for the inspiration.
I think the James Bond films gave us unrealistic expectations as to exactly how nefarious evil billionaires could be.
"Do you expect me to die?"
"No, Mr Bond, I expect you to post 'parody' on your social media account!"

Look, does anyone remember Usenet?
You could run your own group. You could join any groups. It was up to your local Usenet admin which groups were carried at your site (usually a university or government domain) and how widely your local groups got promoted.
It was also up to you/your admin what you DIDN'T see in your usenet feed. Lots of sites didn't carry alt.sex.*, for example.
If your're old enough, "the fediverse" is kinda familiar.
Is it mastodon etiquette (or whatever the portmanteau for this is) to "favourite" toots as "I like this" but without adding further comment?
Virtue is eating leftover birthday chocolates, *then* eating grapes, right?
Well, this is already less terrible than the birdsite.
