@roguelazer@mastodon.technology Well, option 1 seems to boil down to "WTF is a firefox account" and that seems like it would be a common response.
re: uspol, ask for help.
@magicalmilly Wherever you are, there's probably a local chapter of the Democratic party that you can drop by maybe? I went to my local Young Democrats group for a while and I thought it was a good way to get some exposure to what low-level politics is actually like, and meet people also involved in it. (Some folks from that group went on to hold local and state offices, not sure anyone's "made it big" nationally.)

uspol, ask for help.
Repeating a toot from earlier:
I want to run for government. If anyone has any resources to help me get my foot in the door that would be incredible.
I don't *want* to be in charge, I just know that I have the spoons to actually deal with the bullshit and want to fight for our rights and someone has to do it. And I know that goal is enough reason to do it for me.
Please feel free to share and send ideas. Help me figure shit out.

I wonder why stories about telepathy aren't...
I lose the train of thought, and sit blinking for a moment. Then I read my notes, smile, and record another succesful experiment. It is perfectly reproducible - think about mind control, and...
What was I thinking about?

CLARIFICATION TO MY VALUED CUSTOMERS:
I am not now, nor have ever been, 'morally bankrupt'.
I did accept $500 million of moral venture capital in third-round moral fundraising, and yes that does mean I have certain obligations to my moral shareholders.
tldr, it is a complete coincidence that I'm pivoting toward the lucrative 'hold the world hostage with a laser moon cannon' market, and I hope that you all join me in this exciting next stage of our startup's mission to rethink pizza warming

Roses evolved 35 million years ago. We know because we've found fossils!
There are about 150 species of rose, growing all across the Northern Hemisphere, and humans have been growing them for about 5000 years. The practice probably started in Ancient China, before spreading to Ancient Persia, where damask roses were first bred – named after the city of Damascus in Syria.
The Persians also first developed methods for obtaining rose water and rose absolute, for flavourings and fragrances.

The traveler came across a pancake maker by the roadside, and was invited for a meal. The pancakes were tossed high in the evening air, and the traveler noticed that every seventh disappeared.
"Where do they go?"
"To the bats."
"They eat pancakes?"
"No! For adoption."

@pagrus@mastodon.social Hm. That seems like... a bad idea, IMO. Doubt it'll catch on. Then again, I'm clearly not in the loop, so I guess we'll see. I'm not planning to lobby my admin or move instances or anything...
@pagrus@mastodon.social Is there some push to defederate mastodon.social to force decentralization? I missed it...
