@Ronald Nu heb je het over traditie. Wat niet per se hetzelfde is als 'diep geworteld'! 😜

@Ronald Hoe bedoel je diep geworteld in onze samenleving? Toen mijn ouders jong waren was dit hele vuurwerkgebeuren er nog niet eens.

@AbandonedAmerica Looks like we don't have material shortages at all...

We merely abandoned them.

Saying not to bother with the favourite button on mastodon because it doesn't affect any algorithm is like saying not to say thank you to someone because no one else will hear.

Stop thinking in those old social media ways of engagement and visibility and algorithms and reach and audience and start thinking about being social.

@RagudMezegis That is so sad. 😢 I know what it is like to lose a beloved pet and it sucks. Cherish the good memories!

@javifields I wonder if they hit too hard on purpose sometimes to ensure that they are, in fact, dead NOW!

@ceoln Everything's closed here on 1/1 :)

Happy new year, don't go hungry. ;)

I STILL have a spreadsheet full of #Steam #game keys (all legit!) and giving them away isn't just for Christmas any more.

I'm NOT doing this to get new followers. You DON'T need to follow me to get a key. This is about generosity when the world could really use some. The only thing I'd ask you to follow is the Wheaton rule: "Don't be a dick".

To avoid keyfarmers and resellers, I have some guidelines, though.

1. No new accounts. Sorry. You've got to have been here on Mastodon & obviously human; ie. no keyfarmers (If I don't know you, I'm checking profiles).

2. One game per person, but please pick your top three preferred games that you want to play.

3. First in, first served. If your first preference is gone by the time I get to you, that's why there's a 2nd & 3rd preference.

4. *DM* me with the row number, name, and preference order of the three games (my DMs are open)

Green: My keys
Blue: Keys donated by @McCovican.
Orange: Keys donated by @tojosan

Game listed multiple times = multiple keys.

We've given away ~100 games now, and I'll be adding new keys as I get them.

If you don't mind boosting this post; this is my small way of trying to make the world & Mastodon a nice place to be.

An irregular reminder that calling this place "Mastodon" has a bit similar energy as saying "I just sent you a GMail."

"Fediverse" (or "fedi") is a better term.

Mastodon is just one of many software projects that talk to each other to create this multi-instance social network:

(kudos to @axbom for this fantastic infographic!)

There are blogs, Reddit-like communities, video instances and many more, all part of fedi.

@peterdrake Give poor Violet an extra cuddle. My cat seemed to have slept through it fine.

@slash
Impossible with all those floating diamond formations in the way!

@lucifargundam

@Floyd You mean upside-down negates upside-down? Huh, fancy that!

@gpowerf
That sounds just as scary as 'may you live in interesting times' 😅

Not too memorable, please!
