#twittermigration

Imagine, you have to run a successful party for nine children but instead the whole school turns up, all 400 of them.

But you can’t turn them away, you have to feed them well and be cheerful, that would be very hard eh?

- - -

That is what the #mastodon technical administrators are doing now.

They are playing catch up while trying to keep the services live and we should all be patient, it’s incredibly complex to run these systems and keep them up 24/7.

Patience, please.

Was going to close down my twitter acunt … I mean account … sorry …but why bothersome myself …
meanwhile here is one of my fav yiddish Flutterbys

Ah to be in the company of mast-er-dones … prehysteric elephants of the future planet restocking

i am home 🫶🏿😹🏴‍☠️🦞🙏🏽

day 3 riding the elephant:

- stephen fry up (official queen of England) has joined Mastadin from totter/twatter
- start your instance/server tout sweet
- be extra kind to the noobs (moi for example)
- we come in pieces … take us to your ladder
- never underestimate peeps/people power, we iz flowers

This is my second day on mastodon. I am beginning to see the light. Soon I may be able to feel like a regular irregular. Watch your step, the path is wet.

… this is my garden master don statue aka Ganesha …
you can't have too many elephants … though in a small garden they can trample the other occupants …

I'm noticing a lot of people coming from Twitter.. and so many are hating on Twitter. I'm not from there, so could someone kindly tell me if I missed something?

Emptyness, I am full of it ... Most are full of it, a personal bullsit, horned ego and forms of comic karmic car/cowmuck delusion.
… here is one story I hope instills stillness:

I am a sukkha for dukkha. I like to suffer.

There are good things in my life. Buddhism is one. It Is stillness and goodish internet comrades. I like Tantra for its noise and variety and heresy for its non-existence. I like to hear from broken people repairing as best they can-can.

What story can you tell?

Good morning, this evening or 'Afternoon'. Time to a wake …
yawn … stretch … off to visit my pet zombies (only joking, they are free range)

I am a mastodonnery child. a newbie. bee gentle. Just wait till I grows up. That would be never-never land.

Hello Whirled! i am A Ware … not for sale of course … more a sort of A wer-lobster, ready to shed my shell …

As a newbie to wherever we are (Master Doner I think it is) so far so goodly. So far I have learned:

- there is light, head that way
- there is diversity, find your interests
- look for mountains, decide on steep, paths, ski runs, mole hills, in other words choose
- make friends, not fiends
- be helpful, obvious really

more tips as I cross over
And also:

- you are welcome
- the Way is on, up and sideways
- be patient, even if you are

The cat sat on the grass
The grass sat on the worm
The worm fed the bird
The soil was Earth
That is my spin, now spun.
What fun.

Who’d have guessed Elon Musk would pay $44 billion to promote Mastodon.

We are the ripple not the raspberries.

Serve to survive … but who, why and how? Ourselves if we are selfish and know no better. Or the greatest good we can muster, imagine, find.

I'll join …
