I realized what makes Mastodon, and Bluesky, and Post, and Notes seem so odd. It’s the complete absence of the “if you won’t pretend this shit sandwich is sirloin it shows how biased you are/how much Trump broke you/what an echo chamber you’re in.”

I find people accusing me of being a simp for whatever I'm simping for this week are not exactly absent on Mastodon, but at least the incoherent scoldings about not suppporting what turns out some anarchist equivalent of Time Cube, for which I am methodically and, in some cases, alphabetically, accused of every item on Wikipedia'a list of rhetorical fallacies, are rare enough that they count almost as a fun little adventure, instead of only the second-worst part of my daily routine.
