From over on birdsite (while it remains): a pretty good, informed take on how to acclimate to Masto from a user with ~60k followers: https://twitter.com/garius/status/1588827775628369920
Sets some good ground expectations while offering good tips on setting things up and easing the migration process.

Got my dad to 3D scan his cat and now she doesn’t understand why he won’t stop laughing
.@ifixcoinops Amusingly enough, I still have the tools for this lying around. I used to use Calibre to generate my feed in the mornings, sync it to my Kindle 2 (at the time) via email to Whispernet, then feed that into my car audio via text-to-speech while driving to work. (This being 2010-2011 or so.)
I called mine The Daily Nibble. Also kind of a shameless plug that Calibre is really great.

#feditip: go to https://{your mastodon server}/users/{any username}.rss to get an RSS feed for your RSS reader.
Level 2: go about your day without internet, then in the evening settle down at your Computer Desk with a nice cup of tea to RSS-digest the day's shitposts.
Level 3: Aggregates your RSS feeds into epub format. Load the output onto your 2000's e-ink e-reader via USB cable. Sit in an overstuffed armchair with a nearby lamp, say aloud "Ah, yes, today's internet" and sip your port.
@qdot First, this is cool as hell. Second, I love that this means some component of the commercial and/or industrial sector will have a power glove meets Alien tech aesthetic.

This avatar is extremely good and validating. I'm gonna keep repeating that, because aaaaa
Mastodon's image upload is *really* slow, so for some extra variants have this Twitter thread: https://twitter.com/Tayruu/status/1579345674428362753

If you were a non villain NPC in a game like links awakening (think like, shop or minigame or one of those wild goose "I'll give you this if you trade me that" chases), which kind of npc would you be? What do you do in the game?
What can I do? So many things
@Aradia https://5calls.org is also my goto to find numbers to call. They provide sample scripts and even help with coaching you through making the call for those of us who have phone anxiety.

So if you're thinking "what can I possibly do right now", good news, there are answers:
1) When you earn those dollars, send some of them over to http://abortionfunds.org/ who will get them to the places they need to go.
2) Check in with your local clinic which has, or may no longer support, reproductive services and ask what the heck they need. Type in "local women's health clinic" into Duckduckgo or similar search engine to find it.
3) Tell your congresscritter what's up https://fiscalnote.com/find-your-legislator
4) Most important, meet up with other folks in your area interested in providing services to clinics across the country. It may be hard in your area so check in with your local DSA or Food Not Bombs group and ask who's organizing help in your area.
You have actionable things you can do! It takes time and it's always hard to start new projects, but you can do it!

Hey y'all, I don't have a lot to add today that you won't already read from others. But please be kind to each other today, stay angry at those who did this, and commit to doing what you can in the times to come.
This fight is, was, and will never be over. And these drunk-with-power fuckwits, who think they're insulated from any and all consequence, have not even begun to comprehend the political reckoning that is coming.
@qdot "oh no"
