Congrats on the launch @mike!
I couldn't think of a better place where to take a portrait with my new, awesome @Mastodon t-shirt that reads: "I write #AltText" : the Louvre Museum, in front of the painting "The Battle of David and Goliath" by Daniele da Volterra.

And may I share an ambitious goal with you?
I want to start advocating for the Louvre Museum to join the Fediverse (they're currently on all Big Tech social platforms only). Let's see what I can do 🤗
Here's a long interview with Hannah Spencer (the new Green Party of England & Wales MP), which among other things confirms the caustic role of the media in this country in trying to smear & discredit progressive politicians;
if you have the time this morning its worth reading, not least of all as it marks a welcome contrast to the sorts of interviews of career politicians that usually grace the media.
The 34-year-old plumber last month secured the Green party its first byelection victory and a record fifth concurrent MP. She discusses the problem with career politicians – and being screamed at by voters
Miss Marshmallow Face and Mr Blepalot (not their real names)
I am thankful that I do not need to say „thankyou“ to #Bluesky, the company and its investors for the verification of accounts or to ask them for changes in their configuration so that my social media platform is working.
It shows how dependent #Eurosky and #ATProto still is on Bluesky. They are at the mercy of them. And I do not trust Eurosky to be ever free and fully independent, even if I really want to believe in it.
Please change my mind, but for now I keep on building on ActivityPub.
She looks so fluffy in this picture. She is actually quite small and lean.
