Thought that I would introduce myself to #BlackMastodon 🙌🏾😁 I’m Nadine. #Writer. #Lawyer #Comic Book fanatic and a Londoner! South-East #London if I’m going to be specific 😏 here’s me at my desk, posing and not working 👩🏾‍💻 #crimewriter #blackwriters #nanowrimo

If you've migrated from #AcademicTwitter let's connect! We have a lot to discuss!

Hi! #introduction toot! I love #tea #nature #gardening #photography #science #cinema (esp #scifi, #comedy & old film classics), #music (collect #FilmSoundtracks on #vinyl) I have eclectic tastes. Some say no taste at all😆

I love passionate, funny, nerdy, scientific people. I’m a #green #leftie #GTTO.

Used to work in #film for many years now raise awareness of #MyalgicEncephalomyelitis & fundraise in #FancyDress with #DressForME for #InvestInMEResearch. I’m also a #Trekkie #Whovian #Jedi

Still figuring out how this app works. Meanwhile, #introductons time. Hi 👋🏽 I am a PhD student & my research examines gender issues, with a focus on using big data and AI approaches for social science research. My doctoral dissertation is on violence against women-in addition to offline forms of viol, it covers online misogyny on Twitter as well (the irony of the timing is not lost on me). I am defending later this month so whoever is seeing this, please send good vibes ✨

Yo #ornithology #BirdScience #BirdResearch #bird peeps of Mastodon! 🐣

I'm looking for a diverse flock of bird researchers/scientists (any discipline) to feature in my new #ChildrensBook (about, well, birds) highlighting a range of cool science/fieldwork. 😎

Please reply and say hi so you're on my radar!😍🐦 My illustrator and I *really* want to hear about you and your cool research/fieldwork and - if you'd be happy - to have you appear in the book.xx

I see a lot of people talking about how Mastodon "Feels like the Internet I remember from 20 years ago."

That's no accident. That's Federation. That's UseNet, IRC, Email, Message Boards, etc. What do they all have in common?

Federation: Users congregating around watering holes of common interest, but still being a part of a larger whole.

THIS IS HOW THE INTERNET WAS DESIGNED TO BE. And I am HERE for it.

If you need help with using Mastodon and the Fediverse you can ask me for help, but please check the website at https://fedi.tips first. It has lots of questions answered!

If you can't find what you need on the site, @ me or message me and I will reply as a DM.

(I'm not doing public replies from this account any more as it will unnecessarily stress the server.)

For today’s poetry offering, here’s an assortment of haiku.

I know there are plenty still doing #Wordle daily, because I see the results in my feed!

If that's you, you might like #Thirdle thirdle.org as sonething similar but different.

You get 3 words arranged in a crossword grid, with the joining letters given. Yellow is in the wrong place but the right word, while pink is in the wrong word.

I find it a slightly more strategic challenge.

Like many people, over the last couple of days members of the Bylines Network have joined Mastodon, mostly on the mast.to server. We created links and invited people to join us, and thousands did!

It was exciting to set up camp here and the welcome has been great. But it didn't occur to us that this might overwhelm the server!

So thank you to @trumpet for keeping everything going! If anyone would like to buy our admin a coffee, visit their profile and click on the Ko-fi link.

North East Bylines is on Mastodon! Please follow us. More coming soon!

Hello there smiley mitochondrion! #CellBiology #ElectronMicroscopy

Hi! I’ve created this account on the advice of an author friend who is far more digitally savvy than me. Having migrated from the #WritingCommunity and #BookTwitter I am wondering whether the way to connect with other bookworms will be using the hashtag #BookStadon or #bookstodon or simply #Books ? Anyhoo, talk to me about writing, reading (especially historical fiction, literary fiction and thrillers), theatre, fusion cooking and general silliness.

So, I don’t know if we do #FollowBackFriday on #Mastodon, but here goes. #FBPE #GTTO Here is a picture of Penguins as a bonus. #penguins

#FollowBackFriday you might get some #retrocomputing, you might get some #art or #photography, you might get #science, you might get some #politics and you might just get #StupidThingsThatMakeMeLaugh

The easiest way to improve ones #MentalHeath is to spend a few days away from Twatter interacting in a normal and polite way with intelligent and knowledgeable people. Happy to #FollowBackFriday about any subject matter. #climatecrises #EU #COP27 #impactmeasurement #UNSDGs
