Starting to think we should specify in our #introduction posts whether we prefer fave or boost. Some folks need the visibility of a boost for professional or other reasons. Some would rather avoid it, but don't want to lock down their account.
Me, I don't care which you do. I'm just happy we're both here and we see each other. #nobirb
Friendly dude over on Twitter trying to tell me why I should have my own site and I'm trying hard not to be all "do not cite the old magic at me" cause he's just doing a healthy self-marketing thing
I did mention my drinking-age blog though. So I guess I kinda did the "I was there when it was written" thing after all #nobirb
The Local timeline has never been more lovely to me than these last couple weeks. I got too enthusiastic with the new follows, and the main feed's a bit much. I could turn off boosts, but what if I miss a great account to follow?
(only applicable if your host instance has fewer accounts than the number of accounts you follow)
oh dang i forgot again
Note to self and others. When you're replying to a thread, the other handles are right there. Decide if they all need or want to be in on your part of the conversation. If not, just backspace them out. No extra clicks needed. Like how Twitter used to be. #nobirb
If someone you know is looking at cohost, have them read this Twitter thread first. People — including me, alas — looking more at cohost's cute UX and can-do attitude than its TOS.
Sharing here because I know some are already going #nobirb as they look for new homes.
Brady is out of town for the weekend (in NJ to play games with his nerd friends), and managing the dogs by myself is proving to be challenging. :(
Doc said the swelling and pain may last up to a year from the sprain, and unfortunately the PT is aggravating it. I know it's important to do, as my mobility on my sprained ankle is only about half as good as the other one, but it makes it very sore for several hours afterwards.
The new dog is still in the process of being trained so she still pulls *really* freaking hard, and nearly yanks me down the stairs on the way out. She's making great progress, but some things are more challenging than others.
She's getting much better at controlling her barking (very food motivated, which helps a ton.) I can get her to *stop* now (mostly), but we're not at the point where she can just *not* bark. She's got "sit" and "wait" down, but once I give her the "okay" to release her, she's like a bullet down the stairs.
She's smart and is a quick learner, so I'm hopeful. We haven't had her long.
@thegibson FYI, question from the birbsite: https://twitter.com/DaveWilsonD/status/1526329922163249153?s=20&t=dLP7Tjylu0zsAU-VpvLj6A
