I'm reading @sarahjeong's story about Mastodon and completely relating to her description of twitter addiction.

"Is the Merriam-Webster dictionary subtweeting the president today? I wish I knew, so I could pretend to not care. I am scum and don't deserve mastodon.social. But here I am."

@micahflee @sarahjeong I can't help but feel like there's a way to be silly snarky and obsessed with political news and still be nice, conscientious of triggers, and not a nazi.

I have hope yet that some social network (or maybe mastodon instance) with that as a focus could exist, but in the meantime 🐘🐥
