Well #Twitter has gone bonkers. Today I could read DMs and see notifications - but not see anyone else's TLs or tweets.

Anyone talking here about what happened at the #Berks last night? I've not been able to follow what happened today or what they posted at all? The org was going to make a statement... #histodons

The #TwitterRefugees have doubled the #Fediverse population since my prior #introduction, so I'm doing ANOTHER ONE.

(I look forward to Mastodon veterans showing up in my mentions to tell me this violates protocol.)

My name is Max. I live in the Kansas City metro area; I work as a #ProjectManager, and am married with two kids. Interested in many geeky things (#PowerPlatform, #Python, #DataScience) and I crack jokes about work life and #productivity. (And I post a lot of messed up aphorisms.)

Since so many people asked for a close up of the #cleavage of my #CelticFling outfit here you go.

Hello world!

I've been here for six months or so, and lately I've been reflecting on what I use the fediverse for, so it's time for a little re #introduction

I'm a software developer and enjoy tinkering around with programming languages and runtimes, but I find I don't have much to say about it recently. I find the endless hype cycles in software tiresome and is there really anything left to say?

Photography is probably main hobby and I often post my pictures here. I enjoy other kinds of art too, both watching and making.

In terms of music, I like to think I've got eclectic taste, but when it comes down to it, I find I'm mostly listening to post-punk. I post a music links when I'm in the mood.

Politically, I have a left leaning slant and I believe in equality and human rights for all. I often boost political posts.

I like to listen to In Our Time podcast. I read Popbitch every week and play Rougle everyday.

Okay. So we all understand that the Supreme Court has become a right-wing ideological political institution under Alito, Thomas, Gorsuch, Barrett, Kavanaugh, & Roberts. They're for sale & illegitimate. Now, we have to beat them in the executive branch & the legislature.

Birdsite reminder 

Reminder that if people come here from Twitter right now, they want to join a community, not get lectured on their posting style. Let’s be as welcoming as we can be.

I honestly don't know how I'm going to make a steady monthly income without Twitter — my book payments are great but they're spaced out over years. It's been so hard to gain Patreon subscribers since Elon took over.

It's been such a dream come true to be reader-supported for the last few years and I'm scared it won't be feasible. Please become a patron if you enjoy my work and want to stay up to date:

Whenever people say "the left is always so triggered," remember that one (1) trans woman said she liked to drink Bud Light, so in response, conservatives said they would kill her.

Nothing works. You will die waiting for promised help.

Everything not nailed down has been sold and they’re pulling up the nails, even as water companies go bankrupt whilst suffocating our rivers with shit.

The election will be won by people who think managing decline is what grown ups do.

Everyone’s quietly surrendered to filth, suffering, victimisation and death on a global scale.

And you can’t even joke about it on a silly website because it was bought and killed by an idiot billionaire.

Feeling cute..might eat a whole loaf of French bread later

There’s nothing that screams “free speech” like limiting the amount of posts people can view.

Ok friends I need you to listen closely:

Elon Musk doubling down and compounding his bad decisions is NORMAL. This is how rich assholes behave.

This is how they ALL behave.

We're going into a climate crisis. One that requires immediate action. We have unprecedentedly unchecked corporate power structures and an elite that has zero understanding.

And they will make WORSE decisions the more they are pressed.

The rich will destroy the world rather than admit they don't know what they're doing.
