Hey I just found this brandy new social media thing, get in while it's new so you can be on the ground floor like me

@job384 if you want to deter a normie from joining fedi, just tell them the fediverse is like if twitter and 4chan had a baby

Mastodon ProTip: instances can choose not to accept deletes. Once you post something it's here forever! Welcome to fedi!

I didn't realize she was from that terribly (yet hilariously) named university. Maybe now that she's on a mastodon instance, she'll finally learn what it means ... before she tries to dox every single person she doesn't agree with so she can make her way onto the editorial staff of The Washington Compost or the New York Crimes.

@djsumdog On one hand, she brings CUNY. On the other, she has a profile on the WEF website. https://www.weforum.org/agenda/authors/veronika-bondarenko

The Eurasian blue tit (Cyanistes caeruleus) is a small passerine bird of the Paridae family. As a residential and non-migratory bird, the blue tit rarely moves far from where they once hatched.
The yellowness of their ventral parts seems to be correlated to the number of caterpillars eaten, which contain carotene pigments, as well as the time of breeding. 🐦 🐣
Yes kids, a tit is a bird.

Another beautiful sunset tonight.

Sometimes, you just need a parent. Kiddo is at college (45 min away). Was out of an important Rx. Could Not Find their supply. Got a refill locally, ran it up tonight. Dorm room? Looked like a tornado hit. Kiddo has ADHD, too. Organization is a challenge. I suggested we pick up so they felt more settled. We did, even found the Rx they were out of! 😂 They were mortified. Nope. I was there to deliver hugs, a bit of calm, sew a button back on a coat with the emergency sewing kit I bought them, and we chatted a bit. When I left, dorm room was organized. Kiddo was calm. Lots of hugs given.

I told my husband I thought I was delivering a vital Rx when what I actually needed to deliver was some hands-on love. Glad to have been able to do so.

Sometimes, when life is crazy, we just need someone to help us pick up our laundry, hug us, and remind us that we are doing okay.

Something interesting I noticed on Mastodon vs Twitter after being on both for several years: posts get way more meaningful engagement here (per capita) than on Twitter.

I have an order of magnitude more followers on Twitter, but other than the occasional outlier, my posts here get similar numbers of likes, boosts and replies as they do over there.

It's an interesting phenomenon, and I wonder if it will continue if more content is actually being generated on this side.

New here. Seems like a lot of people moved over here from Twitter. I never used the site but the recent dumpster fire there and growing dissatisfaction with is leading me to explore alternatives. Here's a picture from a recent hike and one from the summer, if you like animals and/or vistas feel free to follow me. I work mostly with Python for the development of novel energy analytics methodologies, but don't often post about it...
