“There was very little that was written for and about the Canadian Black community, and the presence of Black people as part of Canadian history…It was a passion of mine to see how we could make this happen – to have Black history be part of the curriculum, and Black people acknowledged and celebrated in the Canadian mosaic.”
— Jean Augustine, PC CM CBE, first Black woman elected to Canadian Parliament

Im a baseball card collector - not sure how many people on qoto could relate... but I could use some Topps Chrome 2022 or Update blaster boxes. So many chasers, prices go ridiculous when they first come out, and then come back down to Earth, as gravity would have being used as a literary device.

I collect baseball cards, mostly among others. Here's a Topps Fire orange foil. 299 were printed of this color.

... And for that matter (I have no clue how I'll gather these later to add to my intro, but what the hey) and even ( !) !

Since Mastodon saw its initial popularity circa 2017, I've noticed that most users and those reporting on it either don't think about the Fediverse as anything more than Mastodon, or treat its history as beginning with Eugen Rochko and the beginning of Mastodon. In fact, Mastodon is the latest in a long line of federated social networks, going at least back to Identi.ca, and though I wasn't around for all of it,I find this history pretty interesting. (Thread; boosts welcome!)

Those of my #vegan and #atheist friends and followers - I'd urge you to look at the #sentientism website.

Briefly, it espouses "Evidence, reason, and compassion for all sentient beings"

"Sentientism is a philosophy or worldview – a way of thinking about what’s real and what matters.

Sentientists use evidence and reason to work out what to believe in, so don’t hold supernatural beliefs.

Sentientists also have compassion for every sentient being."

Check it out.

I tend to follow back those peeps who toot about #climate issues (bad and good,) #de-growth (and it’s opposite - #extractive #colonialist #capitalism,) #mass extinction, #adaptation, #resilience. I’m sure you catch my drift 🤔. I also enjoy communicating about #aiart, #buddist philosophy, #literature, and the Oxford comma, as well as anything else that captures my interest.

Now that I know more about this place, I guess it's time for a new #Introduction. I'm perpetually online. I'm a #copywriter by day, & by night I hostThe Q-Dropped Podcast. Each ep. is a close look at how QAnon has destroyed a relationship. It's not easy to do, but #QAnon claimed my parents, so I feel compelled to raise awareness. You can listen to the #podcast here: porthosmedia.net/qdropped I'm also a #StarTrek nut, a mom and I love #Food #Hiking #Dogs #TV & I #swim 2km every morning! #GoBrowns

When #Twitter kicked #QAnon off on 1/8/21, the #diaspora largely ended up on #Telegram which is full of #nazis and #Russians. #diasqora

The people #radicalized on Telegram for two years have gotten far worse because it’s basically a Kremlin #psyops marketplace targeting every interest, demographic and vulnerability with propaganda and almost zero #moderation.

Twitter just sent QAnon away for an upgrade.😬

I'm looking for experts who study/research #Extremism #QAnon #FarRight #ConspiracyTheories #Pseudoscience in the #Wellness community, etc., to be on our podcast. Let me know if you're interested or know of someone who might be.

#Adoptee folks, feel free to DM me with questions if you are here & struggling to figure out how Mastodon works. I'm hardly an expert on everything Fediverse, but I'd like to think I've got most of the fundamentals for Mastodon down.

If you're trying to figure out how to get more content showing up in your timeline, you're struggling to find people, or you're not sure what all this talk of federation or a Fediverse means, HMU.
