OKAY STOP GIVING ME LETTERS. I GOT WHAT I NEEDED IN SPITE OF ALL Y'ALL'S SMARTASSERY. *grumble*

I kind of want .social to close for new accounts at 100,000. I'm more & more concerned that the task of moderating & nurturing a meaningful community within the instance will become far too large for the resources of our tiny, basically volunteer team. :S

I also feel like massing so many people on one instance weakens the potential of mastodon in general to play with models of building interconnected, human-scale communities.

wanted to update my bio to add more but apparently you only get 160 characters

500 characters in a post makes that feel just a little cramped

Transphobia description, a warning 

Genetic determinism of gender is transphobic.

Do not use this as an excuse to misgender someone! That's not ok and makes for an easy decision to suspend from my perspective.

Anti-trans rhetoric is unconditionally unwelcome on Mastodon.social.

WARNING
@1oveposting@mastodon.social​ is transphobic, probably a TERF. blocking recommended (until they get booted off mastodon.social)

Petition to replace the term 'walking simulator' with 'stroll-playing game'

went with Spouse to $bucks and got a mocha, and now CAFFEINE YAY *twitch* *jitter*

silly dream 

but then the people who owned the giant pig didn't want it back (yet) for Reasons, and I protested that I didn't have anywhere permanent to keep it and it was disrupting my job, which involved turning a handle regularly for a long time.

silly dream 

I dreamed that I found two birds that I identified as magpies and another creature that I initially identified as a turkey wandering around my yard. the turkey had a sign on it, which I took for a collar and attempted to read. turns out the turkey (now a turkey *vulture*) belonged to some people over on the east coast, so probably the magpies did too. so I rounded them up and put them in a pen, by which time the turkey/vulture was a huge pig, and the magpies were kittens (of course)

OH HEY Y'ALL does anybody (in the Seattle-esque area) know how to sew buttons on coats and is willing to do so, possibly in exchange for HUMAN CASH MONIES or OTHER FORMS OF RECOMPENSE? I can provide the buttons, the coat, entertainment while doing the thing, lunch, and stuff. eeeeeee (<--pre-caffineated brain-squeaking)
