@commandelicious Hah. Yeah, I think I'm going to unfollow that specific bot. Just an odd thing to see something very close to (But again, not.) NSFW on my timeline at work. :P
@hadret Hey, no hate towards it- just a little odd to see some (admittedly somehow SFW and tame) bimboification/Mind-control kink captions. Totally unexpected.
Federation Bot boosts some odd things sometimes.

I saw a van with a Mastodon sticker, but since they also had Slayer and Black Sabbath stickers, I don't think they were talking about us.
Today's #RandomQuestion is...
@indiauplko @bfgdhrubo For sure. We can only hope we've passed the great filter already. Otherwise.. well.. things don't look so good.

Today's #RandomQuestion is...
@Surasanji for me it has to be whether there is life somewhere else in the universe. I would like to think that there is. I mean the universe is VAST and old. This means that the universe would have had enough time and random trials to come up with life many times over. So eventually I would love for humans to have contact with these other life-forms. Which in turn could shed light on how light began on our own pale blue dot. Sounds reasonable?

Hey there! Today's #ShareTheMusic takes on a bit of a new format. A little bit of a longer, bloggy format. Let me know if you like this better, or prefer the short 'Hey this is a song I like format'.
Onto the music!
Today I'd like to talk about Daniel Kahn and the Painted Bird.
They play Klezmer music (Big surprise that the Ashkenazim Zionist Dude listens to Klezmer, yeah? )
And there is one particular song I'd like to suggest, from the 2012 album "Bad Old Songs" called Good Old Bad Old Days.
Daniel himself calls it an 'Ostalgic Ballad' and it has an interesting sort of story of a man singing about how he misses his time in East Berlin.

Check them out! Great musicians.
Bonus track, Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah in Yiddish: https://youtu.be/XH1fERC_504

@Surasanji Tell ya what, the best way you can help is to try to organize the community in positive ways.
Think of recurring events and/or hashtags we can do that will engage the community in interesting topics.
I think that would help way more than money. Of course, if you choose to help with money it will be appreciated as well.
@freemo @indiauplko Why not both?
@freemo @indiauplko Yeah, let me know. I'm sure others would like to help out, too. We all appreciate getting the service here, I'm sure, but it doesn't feel fair to me to not at least offer to help (And follow up on that offer, of course.)

@Surasanji
Right now i just have my paypal donate for my open source company. which is a different entity so wouldnt be the best way to do it. I will set up a paypal donate for #QOTO at some point in case anyone wants to help out. I appreciate it. I'll keep you informed on that front when i get it set up.
@freemo @indiauplko I'd be glad to donate something, even if it is just a token amount. I'm not rollin' in it, but I do feel it is right to support initiatives like #QOTO that encourage dialogue.

@Surasanji I'd figure out who came first, the chicken or the egg.
But seriously, I don't know. Solving a mystery may remove the wow factor and with some stories, I enjoy the mystique. I would like to find Atlantis, not necessarily discover that it was all just a great story. I would like to prove that aliens exist, not find out that they are a hoax.
This is a thinker of a question. Nicely done!

#QOTO announcement
Hi all we did NOT migrate the servers yesterday but instead just begun that now. It shouldn't effect anything until I redirect the DNS in a few hours. At that point there may be momentary downtime. I will keep everyone informed ont he schedule.

@Surasanji
That's pretty cool!
Personally I wouldn't mind being able to prove (or disprove) the existence of God, for we currently can't determine whether or not such a being exists when it's not on our standard human, 4-dimensional, observational scientific plane (that is, something we can't identify with our 5 senses).
This isn't exactly a mathematical equation or anything, but if I had the opportunity to solve *any* mystery, this would probably be the thing.
