Me: I was fired from my last job and now i'm applying for this one

Smiling is showing our skeletons to each other and I won’t do that until the third date.

Taking it down...

Broccoli stalks are just small magical trees with even smaller magical elves living inside them.

It's the elves that taste so gross.

Cupid has replaced his heart shaped arrow tips with serrated four pronged ones and is attacking people indiscriminately. He says death is now his mistress and we will court only her.

Oh hell yeah. @mozilla is launching a Mastodon instance in early 2023! I’m very excited for this. Mozilla is really good at what they do. Firefox has over 200M monthly active users, and with any luck they’ll build better support for the fediverse into Firefox itself. Mastodon will greatly benefit from easy to use professionally run instances that can handle massive scaling https://blog.mozilla.org/en/mozilla/mozilla-launch-fediverse-instance-social-media-alternative/

Ill be posting some past work on here, seeing the great response from my current project. This is an 1959 IBM 1401, 1:16 scale, scratch build, 100% hand made

Reading through timelines on a few instances and noticing some awesome image descriptions. One was a weather forecast graphic, with details! As a blind person this is amazing and refreshing. I know sometimes words are hard for people and I get that. But, when you can and do add the descs, thank you!

There is no such thing as “running the servers & software teams.” No tech/social media company on earth is or would ever be organized and structured. This man is a 100% fraud and an absolute dipshit.

I’m sure that the folks who’ve been on Mastodon for 6 months or a year or longer feel like they are under siege. I assume this was once a quiet and peaceful place until all of us #TwitterMigration folks showed up.

So, thank you.

A tidy summary of A Christmas Carol

This place seems nice.

It’s so easy to not buy Twitter. I do it every day.

Today’s social media status quo isn’t cutting it, so Mozilla is exploring an alternative here on Mastodon. In early 2023, Mozilla will be testing a publicly accessible instance in the Fediverse at Mozilla.Social. We will keep you updated, but for now learn more here: mzl.la/3BNXQMQ

"Hand of the Green Man"

This beauty was on Bainbridge Island in the Pacific Northwest, but was cut down by a developer shortly after I took this photo. I still cry for the loss of this tree.

January 1, 2023 is Public Domain Day: Works from 1927 are open to all! https://web.law.duke.edu/cspd/publicdomainday/2023/

Apparently there are people out there who think it's inappropriate to use Mastodon to talk about books you've written or promote projects you've worked on because it's marketing and self-promotion?

I am not one of those people. I implore you to write about the work you have done and the things you have made - I want to hear about that stuff!
