One of the things I need to do better at is promoting my writings. So opening a Telegram channel thing to track my future writing interludes~ t.me/+4ZqWf3x56fhkNWY7

So many non-furry accounts have started following me today. I don't know how to react, I don't know their social rules. Do normies sniff each others asses when they meet new people, or is that just like a 'formal occasion' thing for them? How long do they wait before discussing their favorite sexy cartoon animals? I don't wanna seem gauche.

Some people need to stop seeing Mastodon like an insurance policy or a modest lifeboat.

It’s an opportunity to rebuild the things that we loved about Twitter so much we were still willing to put up with all the things we routinely hated.

Yes, it’s more work in some ways than it used to be, but you can’t build something great if no one is willing to put in the effort.

Learning anything new can be frustrating at first. Just like life, the attitude you have will make it easier or harder.

...I should gather instance names for furry spaces that would be up to have us advertize them so people on meow finding us though the joinmastodon list can learn about all the other wonderful servers out there...
If you're a furry admin and see this, feel free to poke me if you think it's a neat idea!

Content Warning: American Politics 

I would still say McCarthy is odds on likely to get it but at the same time it is funny

Content Warning: American Politics 

The Speaker is third in line to the presidency, has requisition access to most secret documents, as well as their own duties. This is one of the most important federal positions.

Which is why when everything Dennis Hastert did came to light beyond the clear ethical and moral violations it everyone should have been upset.

I realize its mostly insider baseball but this nonsense with Represenative McCarthy perhaps not having the votes is funny in its own way. The guy spent years bending over backwards and having the spine of over cooked spaghetti and its clear that cowardice essentially just chummed the waters.

To be clear the Speaker of the House is an insanely powerful position.

It's costing me $50 to order in cough medicine.

Sigh.

It's sounding more and more like Bronchitis.

Anyway, if anyone wants to help with the surprise costs...

Just want to make a quick argument to furs for alt text because almost all of the images I've seen on the local timeline lately are from furs without alt text too.

Alt text goes beyond accessibility! Let's say you're at a furry convention and you can get Mastodon to load up but images aren't loading or are loading super slowly. Alt text allows you to also see what's going on with that image!

Fill in the alt text for your images, it's not only accessible, it's more inclusive overall!

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.

Oh, wow, Tom Lehrer has released all of his songs into the public domain. Apparently also his website will shut down "at some date in the not too distant future" so now's a good time to download directly.

"In short, I no longer retain any rights to any of my songs.
So help yourselves, and don’t send me any money."
