@MoreFunMakingIt not really repair, but basic screwdriver set and cleaning supplies is a must have for those charity shop purchases.

I'm going to be doing a video on my favourite tools for retro repairs.
What are yours? And why?
Would love to feature some of your answers in the video so spread this far and wide!

John Mastodon is just a figurehead; the real work was done by Ernestine Toot. he’s recently been trying but failing to erase her legacy.

Inspired by this, I asked DALL-E 2 for an early 2000s magazine photo of John Mastodon, founder of the Mastodon social network.

Hello Mastodon! I'm Brian Klaas - an associate professor of global politics at University College London, a contributing writer for The Atlantic, and host/creator of the Power Corrupts podcast. I'm originally from Minnesota.

I'm also writing a newsletter on Substack called "The Garden of Forking Paths."

And yes, that is a lemur on my shoulder...I spend a fair bit of time in Madagascar for research.

Oh my.

@Mediaite conservative writer Isaac Schorr misread the Twitter account @joinmastodon as "John Mastodon," and said that the open source social media software was named after this imaginary person. mediaite.com/opinion/hypocrisy

@thrick it’s not your fault, they are not designed to be held easily. They are designed to be slim and look good with no thought to the ergonomics. That’s how I see it anyway.

@KraftTea he’s not really thinking things through, he is simply on a power trip. He’s a very wealthy guy but quite socially inept, he hungers for the adoration of fans and gets deeply upset when people mock him or boo him in public. This emotional rollercoaster is making him unpredictable and highly emotional.

Any journalist who is happy *some* of you have had your #Twitter accounts restored, while others are STILL #suspended without a shred of justification, simply do not understand where #elonmusk is going with this.

He plans on monetizing the mob to humiliate you and keep you compliant. Your intentional targeting and discomfort will be a financially valuable form of entertainment.

Having a mastodon account is like being a thought dj.

Are phones today really usable without a case? I feel they’ve gotten so thin that they are uncomfortable to hold with no case, also there’s so much glass surface that they are quite fragile.

Do you use your phone with a case or without?
