it has been 0️⃣ days since someone with a "please be patient, I have autism 🥺" avatar said something very annoying, got blocked, and then hopped on their alt (that I assume they have because people keep blocking them) to cuss me out for blocking them

reader, they came back with a third account to call me a liar. I open myself to trial and judgment from the jury on this one.

okay but serious talk, I'm only mentioning this at all because it's a rare enough occurrence to distinguish between them. when I first got serious about mastodon during the great migration a few years ago, there were more antagonizers, but it's calmed down. I think my local @jerry must have good taste in moderation because I'm rarely bothered by randos but I also don't ever find myself unable to follow someone because their ten-thousand-user instance got defederated over a trivial drama three years ago

@0xabad1dea @jerry Jerry and the moderates here do a good job for sure!

People that have alts should do like I do and all name them the same thing. Way easier to find and block 👍

I use this instance to find out what types of evil are out there that may want to hurt my machines.

And possums every hour.

I do have an alt that I use to play with, and say things that my employer can't attribute to me. I hope. 😁 But now I'm wondering what kind of hilarity I could create with multiple alts with the same name.

It sounds like work though, so maybe not.
