Sorry, nihilists, for filling your timelines with lots of nice things about your fellow Fedizens tonight. I'll try to find something doomier to post tomorrow.

(Not really. Fuck you.)

Thank you to everyone who has participated in this thread. ๐Ÿ’–

@maxleibman Kris (@theropologist) is the nicest admin a person could ever hope for
@maxleibman @SiameseSoprano cracks me up so fucking much and always cheers me up when I'm sad through the sheer power of ridiculousness

@maxleibman

All these dimensions of somebodies who live in my phone on the #fediverse are my kind of cult

@maxleibman @DevoTheMad has got to be the best friend we've had in a while, he's been there for us for ages, been through a lot of our ups n downs, sure we may have had other friends longer but none so committed to brightenin up our day, workin thru shit with us, bein silly with us, all that n we can only hope to do as much for him as he has for us. love ya buddy

@maxleibman

@Alice The hottest girl in Internet class.

@BPStuart An appropriately angry account.

@chris Seems sensible, plus Canada rules.

@econetwork A man without cynicism. No, seriously.

@TheBreadmonkey It takes a village, usually, but it's a million pounds to make this one work.

@ikonha The guy you would accidentally team up with to defeat a velociraptor.

@lisamelton How often does intelligence intersect with generosity? Not goddamn always.

@futurebird Ants kick ass. Here's why.

@Gustodon Awwww, thank you so much for including me in this list of awesome (and delightfully weird) people. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿ’–

@maxleibman @Alice @BPStuart @chris @econetwork @TheBreadmonkey @[email protected] @futurebird

@Gustodon @maxleibman @Alice @chris @econetwork @TheBreadmonkey @ikonha @lisamelton @futurebird

Namaste, Gus.
Merci beaucoup!
May you have a fine weekend. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

@BPStuart @Gustodon @maxleibman @Alice @chris @TheBreadmonkey @ikonha @lisamelton @futurebird Vous parlez franรงais ๐Ÿ˜€ pour nous, nous utilisons simplement un traducteur pour rendre cela possible. J'espรจre que vous passez tous un bon week-end
@Gustodon @maxleibman @Alice @BPStuart @chris @TheBreadmonkey @ikonha @lisamelton @futurebird โ€œThank you, that means a lot. I just try to stay real and positive.โ€

@Gustodon @maxleibman @Alice @BPStuart @chris @econetwork @ikonha @lisamelton @futurebird

Thanks for including me Gus. Beaming you all the very best and hope you're having/had/will have a terrific Sunday. ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ•บโค๏ธ๐Ÿ™Œ

@maxleibman @adhdeanasl is a model of positivity, humility, and humor to which all should aspire to.
@Conflictional ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿป Positivity is more and more difficult lately, but Iโ€™m trying hard. @maxleibman
@maxleibman I also have to say @falcennial he is soooooo nice to everyone, and also very funny.
@maxleibman @JonBaker is constantly hilarious, creative, and a comforting escape from *waves arms frantically in all directions while screaming โ€œwhat the actual fuck?!?โ€ Into the void* all this.
@maxleibman @Conflictional my dude! Way too kind of you to say!
@maxleibman I put @NorcalGma2 at the top of my list. Down-to-earth and uplifting simultaneously. Even her bad days, and we all have them, make me feel good. I hope her costumes went over well.
#positivity #NoKings2 #gratitude
@maxleibman as much as I want to call out each one of you by name, there are just too many of you. Every person named in this thread is amazing, as are those who speak out to call attention to them. I love you all. You have no idea how much your dumb jokes and observations help people like me get through each and every day. ๐Ÿซถ
@maxleibman Man, I think @alipunk is pretty rad and she flies the #punk flag proudly.

@maxleibman YOU WANT ME TO PLAY FAVORITES?!?!?! WHAT KIND OF MONSTER ARE YOU?1?!?

No but for real, all of the other scientists (and former scientists) on here who let me talk about science and complain and sympathize about lab life (and university woes) to people who are not my co-workers has been priceless for the, 3 (wow!) years I've been here now.

@SRLevine I'm not asking you to play favorites. Just make like, what, forty replies? Fifty?

@maxleibman Sheesh! The pressure! Anyone tagged should feel free to add other people, I am for sure forgetting people with this level of intimidation!

@DrFerrous , @GetzlerChem , @SRDas , @sollat , @titania , @MCDuncanLab , @steveroyle , @Canageek , @iris , @xtaldave , @stevegis_ssg

A shout out to "all the freaky people that make the beauty of the world" *
i.e the whole fediverse in its entirety,
because I find new amazing people most days.
* Michael Franti
@SRLevine awfully kind of you ๐Ÿ’œ
@SRLevine @maxleibman oh man, very much same. Appreciate getting to be human on here among scientists.

@maxleibman

@ai6yr posts fascinating stuff. If you want to find out about a lot of different interesting things, that's someone to follow.

@springdiesel @maxleibman Thanks (although I feel like I need a disclaimer on my random-posting)

@maxleibman thanks to some of the devs of open source software I use daily:

* @nikclayton for the very client I'm typing this from: #Pachli
* @_jocmp for RSS reader with the quality and simplicity I love: #CapyReader
* @CalcProgrammer1 for allowing me to tone down the RGB party that every PC hardware now embeds, without having to install a different malware per brand: #OpenRGB

And I'm sure I'd find many other contributors to software I use if I looked better, but thank you all!
