@emilyfern @StillIRise1963 @Lowie@universeodon.com I was never on twitter either, and I'm mostly gone from FB, but I have a small business with a page there, so I can't really completely abandon it.
Honestly, the social media site I spend the most time at is Youtube. If you go there often, you learn how to avoid the videos with the toxic comment threads and find the good ones. Just ignore what the algorithm tells you to watch and find your jam. And don't feed the trolls.

@sharongascoigne Phototshop!!!
Just kidding, that's a really cool shot.

@futurebird If the reptile heat pad doesn't work out for you, they have a similar pad for keeping the roots of seedlings warm. It might be a little more gentle, I don't know.

I'm presently re-watching some Juzo Itami movies, and I just wanted to say that if you have never seen the amazing acting of Nobuko Miyamoto you are really missing out.

@kyra_davis I was never on Twitter, but I left Facebook a while ago. It's kind of like smoking; the longer you are away from it, the easier it gets. Yesterday I had to check somethign at Facebook, because sometimes you just have to, but I've been gone so long that I wasn't even tempted to stay and look around. I did what I had to do and left. By all accounts, Mastodon isn't a direct replacement for twitter, it's its own thing, but unless we sink into open civil war, Twitter will die and be replaced by something better. And hopefully it will sink Musk with it.

@rvawonk We've always had lots of guns and as a result lots of gun violence, but to increase so dramatically like that tells me that there is an additional factor in play here. I believe that that factor can only be Stochastic Terrorism incited by the Right-wing Hate Media. To me, this seems like the most urgent thing we should be focussing our attention on, and perhaps gun control can stay on the back burner until we solve the fascism problem.

It finally happened. The played Siouxsie and the Banshees on the muzak at the grocery store. I am officially old.

@wdlindsy @jackiegardina Tied at the hip maybe, but it's a loose knot. Any allegiance they have is tenuous, and now that they have what they were working towards, there is no incentive left to keep them from together.
Make a fake account pretending to be a fan of some far-right hack, and say something along the lines of "boy I sure am glad that president Trump gave us so many Catholics on the Supreme Court. I can' t wait until the whole country is Catholic."
Maybe that sounds over the top, but I bet it would work.
Time to take off the gloves

@wdlindsy @jackiegardina One thing that we ion the ground can do is to sow dissention between the Catholics and the Evangelicals. They only tolerate each other to get their precious abortion ban, but they have a long history of animosity that we can exploit if we play our carsds right. Drive a wedge! Taking the high road hasn't worked and won't work. FIGHT DIRTY!
