I think I'm the only #Outlander fan on this server, but I hope my fellow ex tweeps fund me through hashtags. Follow me if you love #OutlanderStarz #SamHeughan #CaitrionaBalfe #Scotland #Mypeakchallenge #MPC #TheSassenach #Sassenachspirits #MeninKilts #Clanlands #waypoints

Hello! Huge Outlander fan here.
This whole business with trying to migrate my account has got me thinking about place names and our inner geography. I’ve recently moved house, and the hill I live on once gloried in the name of Faerie Knowe. That place is gone now, swallowed up by change; it has a much more prosaic street name today. But I wonder what it was named for? The ancient and fey oak tree in my garden? The whimsy of a Victorian gentleman? The in-jokes of 18th century potters? Here it is on a map #folklore #faeries

Back atcha!
It’s my intellectual fantasy happy place.
@SparkleTea “ASOIAF anything” on your profile is an automatic follow

@jamieBGN @kmakice

on my phone that is controlled by my notifications settings. I can get a banner or a badge or a little flag with a number, etc.

On Metatext when I click the notifications bell at the bottom, I get a list of people who have boosted me or followed me etc.

Garland better choose someone who is a decent communicator, orally.

I really like the favorite/boost/bookmark distinctions. I also like the fact that here you have to go back to the original post to talk--my brain says lovechild of Twitter and Pillowfort. Also, accountability, woohoo!

So. In my view.

Favorite: HEY YOU this was a COOL THING.

Boost: HEY EVERYONE this was a COOL THING.

Bookmark: HEY ME don't forget about this COOL THING.

Reply: OMG WHAT A COOL THING can we TALK about it?

Today on Greg Olear's PREVAIL:

"Trump made the story into a vast conspiracy about the Deep State. But what happened is: Russia helped him. The CIA found out about it & warned us. The media failed to convey the magnitude of what was happening. 63 million Americans voted for him anyway."

Trump vs. the CIA (with Kristin Wood)

The USIC warned us. We didn't listen.
