Trying to escape American brands can be so hard sometimes… ugh it’s nice to know the European and Asian brands I can count on but it’s tough to know whose owned by a parent company in the US sometimes.
Hi, I’m Magenta.
I’m new to the fediverse, still exploring.
I am #vegetarian and really liked Harmony Chinese vegetarian restaurant that is no longer here. Are there other vegetarian restaurants in #Philadelphia that you can recommend?
I enjoy #FiberArts #Pottery #Photography and love #Animals
Yooooo #Denver rave crew - so stoked to announce that I'll be playing at the Black Box next month! 🙌
Gonna be rolling some banging #dnb of course
Early bird tix on sale now! 👇 👇👇
Give me a shout if you wanna come by, got a few guest list spots! 🙏
Are there simply more typos on the internet today or am I simply noticing them more often?
I feel like whenever I’m on Reddit or Instagram all I see are typos. I can’t imagine looking at my post once over before sending it to see if I’m using something wrong. Like the completely wrong word is used or words are missing type of typos.
Idk am I alone here? Am I just becoming a millennial boomer? #typos #internet #old?
Ugh I find myself in the tough place of having to use ai for work but wanting to ensure my job security as well.
Then I see how stupid AI is and I think “yep I’m safe for a while. This stuff is straight up slop”
My current way to interest people to join us: The Fediverse is more like local politics, with small communities discussing things. Centralised networks like Twitter, TikTok, instagram etc are more like national politics, with loud mouthpieces shouting over everyone else.
This mental image helps me in understanding why the influencers fail here and they of course think that means that the fediverse must be a lost cause while we commoners happily chug along and enjoy our little street parties ;)
Energy fallout from Iran war signals a global wake-up call for renewable energy

The Iran war is exposing how much the global economy still depends on fragile fossil fuel supplies. The conflict has virtually choked off the Strait of Hormuz, a vital shipping lane for a fifth of the world’s oil and liquefied natural gas. That's shaking up markets and pushing prices higher. Countries reliant on imported fossil fuels — from wealthy industrial economies to poorer developing nations — are facing major disruptions that can quickly ripple through utility bills, food prices, transport costs and electrical grids. Analysts say the crisis is a stark reminder that energy security is not just about stockpiles and shipping, but also about the lagging transition to renewable energy.
