I don't think I am going to mind much if birdsite dies and I am not artificially pseudo-famous anymore. It might make it harder for me to make my side income, but I will deal somehow.

It's just really surreal to find out that people who are actually real-life famous and also had a massive impact on my life are following my shitposts - and sometimes I have had so much traffic in the feed I did not even notice it.

I feel like I would have said something smarter, or more meaningful, or posted less hamster photos. Even though people like them!

@hacks4pancakes hmm since ppl will remember the good hamstershots, you've probably qualified into famedome since one lives on by that memory, as long as ones doings makes ripples n waves one lives on πŸ€™

@hacks4pancakes had to check wtf i did remember that from πŸ˜†πŸ€£
Sir Terry Pratchet, said by The Reaper:
No one is finally dead until the ripples they cause in the world die away, until the clock wound up winds down, until the wine she made has finished its ferment, until the crop they planted is harvested. The span of someone’s life is only the core of their actual existence.

@hacks4pancakes @C0redump Terry Pratchett has that effect ... some of his observations are achingly accurate.
