More than with any other social media platform, #Mastodon often feels like a family. The Addams Family, that is. That's a good thing.
@lauren I volunteer to be Granny Frump. I’m definitely frumpy. And I have a large pot I refer to as β€œthe cauldron β€œ.
@lauren It's my happy space

"That's a good thing."

Morticia used to say that to their "pet hand" all the time!

@lauren I guess I get to turn on lightbulbs in my mouth.
@Tock I had -- and probably somewhere still have -- an "Uncle Fester" light bulb I got as a kid. It had an AA battery inside and you could light it up by shorting the contacts at the end with a piece of aluminum foil in your mouth. The potential problems with this design are fairly obvious, but it did work.
