Home educating teens; spend my time cycling, hanging out with my tiny church, sending out invoices for https://www.jumoo.co.uk.

I believe in things. They will probably become apparent.

if youre new and see cw's as some authoritarian measure forced upon the masses, i invite you to examine the systems in play in our lives that connotate a kindness extended in empathy, with that.
Saw somebody on The Bad Place saying that joining Mastodon and finding all your people again feels a bit like surviving a zombie apocalypse and your heart lifting every time one of your friends walks into the compound, battle-scarred but alive. I can’t find the original tweet now, so I’m sorry not to give credit. But I keep feeling like that whenever someone I recognise pops up.

Nightmares around the world: Money, sex, falling, snakes, blood, teeth falling out.

Nightmares in Greece: HATS.

For anyone wondering why folk CW for eye-contact: it's because it can make some people feel stressed to see lots of faces staring at them while they scroll.

I am one of those people.

For me, I have the most issue with photos of humans and realistic or semi-realistic art of human-like faces.

I don't have it at all for animals or more stylised art.

But the cool thing is -- I usually open things CWed for selfie or eye-contact! Especially if it's art. It just means I have a moment to prepare.

Hey! Spent all day (technically night) fixing delayed feeds on mastodon.social and mastodon.online, both are back to normal now, I had to add more capacity. There's just so much more activity during peak hours, even with closed registrations! #devops
Blocked my first Mastodonista. Feels like I'm settling in.

Shop friends,

We've made the careful decision to temporarily suspend invitations to the Wandering Shop at this time.

I do not know how long this will be for, I suspect on the order of several days to a week-or-so, but we will review an update you.

We have gained over 500 accounts and have around 1000 users *active* (up from maybe 100 or so) since the birdsite exodus, and we're working on stabilizing the current load.
