We've got a kitchen emergency at the St. Francis House #Boston #Homeless Shelter — 2 constantly-used speed racks broke simultaneously.

I was shocked to discover how expensive they are to replace, so I'm fundraising — can you please help share this or chip in?

Thanks!

I am heartbroken by this news. 5 are dead and 18 wounded from this horrific armed assault at a gay club hosting a drag show night in Colorado Springs.

An attack upon our community anywhere is an attack upon us all everywhere. My heart is with the victims and their families.

I didn’t realize that the Dutch fought for their bike lanes. There’s a lot of history within this that I’m currently naive about but excited to learn!

Here’s the article I’m starting with — How the Dutch got Their Cycle Paths: https://www.pps.org/article/how-the-dutch-got-their-cycle-paths

Adding broad search (beyond hashtags and local search) on Mastodon would be really useful.

But it could be used by bad actors to find users to harass.

Would you like to see expanded search features?

Please boost so we can gather views across the fediverse.

A few recommendations for life on Mastodon:

1) Follow anyone you think looks potentially interesting; you can always unfollow later, and they may lead you to new people via boosted posts.

2) Boost posts you think are worthy, so others can discover new content.

3) Don't obsess on replicating your Twitter follows on Mastodon; let it be its own experience, and grow it organically. Obvs follow anyone you miss from Twitter, but this isn't a 1:1 replacement; have fun, follow your instincts.
