see, we could do that. Government subsidized supergroup? Free concerts, obviously. more free concerts is more good for everybody. Free concerts are great, people will still stop in at spots aroind the venue, theres still money for caterers, vfx, security, transit, tourism/accomodations, etc. Theres a lot of economic juice in free concerts

From 1928 to 1972, the Alberta Eugenics Board imposed sterilization on individuals deemed by an appointed board to be "mentally defective".

I’m looking to hire an artist for a small project.

My mom’s 87 and in a nursing facility. She loves adult coloring books and has covered the walls of her room with her work. She especially likes animal designs and gives them names and stories. I keep her supplied with books, but she wants DONKEYS. And I haven’t found her a book with a good donkey design. I’d like to commission a coloring-book style line drawing similar to this photo of our boys. Interested? Hit me up in DMs. #asstodon

The Money Pit's Secrets: Booby Traps and Curses

The Oak Island pit seems to be protected. Searchers have battled ingenious booby traps, including flood tunnels that fill the shaft with seawater as they dig deeper. A stone slab with cryptic symbols was also reportedly found. A legend persists that seven people must die before the treasure is found. To date, six have lost their lives in the search. #Canada #OakIsland #TreasureHunt #Unsolved πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦

WARNING: the #fediverse is not immune to #blackface #astroturfing; especially in the age of #AI.

just blocked an AIslopped account literally invoking the same Bernie Sanders grievances of the last 20 years, with a guest apperance of corporatist dems new target, Zohran Mamdani.

the #USApol consultant ecosystem is a special kind of grifting hell. they are sociopaths who don't care about political parties, only how much money they can make wrecking havoc.

block them with prejudice.

Day 2 on Mastodon:

I don’t fully understand the Fediverse yet, but everyone seems super nice and no one's tried to sell me crypto, so that’s already an improvement over most of the internet. πŸ”πŸ˜…

So, if you like birds, bees, gardens, my quirky art, or quiet backyard moments… we’ll probably get along just fine. 🌿🐦🐝🎨

Hope you're all having a wonderful day ✌🏻
