#Mastodon is a nice social network. I have less than half the followers I had on the 🐦. I also follow less people. I have 10x the interaction. I actually chat with people. I always sign off happy. What a change.

GOD DAMN IT, Penguin. Linux users stick together :) I'm glad he made it, tho.

#medium members: welcome to our instance! & if you're brand new to Mastodon (like me) save this list to read great stories about how to use & understand this fascinating place :) https://scottlamb.blog/list/getting-started-on-mastodon-f4843d1cc80f

More serious talk:

This is especially important for people living in states with a Republican majority.

In 2022, the leading cause of death among children was gun violence.

There were no deaths involving a child reading a book.

There were no deaths because a child went to a drag show. (The greatest risk there is a Christian showing up with a gun.)

Take a look at your children and ask if sacrificing their lives is really worth it, just to own the libs.

If your elected leaders are more concerned with limiting what your child can read or drag queens, then they are about your children reaching adulthood, you elected a very bad person.

Twitter can't pay its bills. The banks that funded the acquisition can't syndicate the debt. Revenue plummeted and shows no signs of improving. There aren't even any plans to improve revenue. Stock awards are worthless.

If Christians ever become curious about why some former Christians left, I suspect there are many former Christians who would be willing to share their stories. Might be a good way to troubleshoot some problems.

"AI hype is playing out today across many products, from toys to cars to chatbots and a lot of things in between. Breathless media accounts don’t help, but it starts with the companies that do the developing and selling. We’ve already warned businesses to avoid using automated tools that have biased or discriminatory impacts. But the fact is that some products with AI claims might not even work as advertised in the first place."
