Today's my birthday, and all I want is YOUR CLIPBOARD! Hit reply and paste—NO EDITING! ✂️📋🎉

I used to do this every year on Twitter, but it’s time to bring this tradition to Mastodon! In 2020, I wrote about why I love these paste parties so much. https://waxy.org/2020/04/paste-parties-the-ephemeral-chaotic-joy-of-random-clipboards/

Paste Parties: The Ephemeral, Chaotic Joy of Random Clipboards - Waxy.org

Yesterday, I posted a tweet asking to see everyone's clipboards, and got over 2,000 pasted replies. It's a snapshot of digital ephemera, stripped of context, reflecting our work, lives, and concerns.

Attached: 1 image Up for Donating Books? try the @internetarchive new app to find out which ones will help fill out the collections (if you go through this, we can sometimes cover postage) Randomly scanning your or friend's books to see if the Internet Archive already has it... Again, try the app. (I find it fun, but it might just be me) Search for "donate books" in the apple or google app stores.
