Now featuring #TipOfDay (a bit grandmotherly at times except for enjoying Gogol Bordello and some metal.) Oh yes, Anti-Fascist.

Anyone know about exporting an archive of your posts and media? The settings shows the option to get a download in ZIP file but I notice that it has looked like this screenshot now for 30 minutes: 1/26/25 Compiling archive... Ideas?
Also, ridiculous spam. Wonder who is doing this and why. I got this just now in Mastodon. #ElonSpam

I’m going that away—->

This is pinned there so you know it’s me. 😄😍😘❤️

Yep, I like history, science, reading, art, cooking and metal.

Today a Golden Day for me, because I found this! If you want to know the story you’ll have to look at the Real Cobalt profile. #Recipe
I’m starting to make sure I get those I want to continue to follow over to my alt account which will be my sole account in 6 weeks: @cobalt123
So you may notice random notifications that there is a Real Cobalt following you now.
Unsure if I will continue my #TipOfDay posts there but here’s a lightweight one: sodium percarbonate in water soak takes out coffee and tea stains. Before and after photos. How I use it next comment. 1/2

Well drat. I guess I am going to be transitioning over to my alternate account at @cobalt123

To be exporting posts I hate to lose 2 years, transfer followers, and retain those I follow. Got 6 weeks to do this, so probably no big push. My thanks to awscommunity.social for allowing me to join quickly just as the first big Twitter Migration was getting going a few years ago. I had had an account since '17 but that original instance closed a few days after I came back! #Migration

He’s given up looking for his breakfast early this morning and wants a nap. But he is also on alert for any sound to tell him I might be moving towards his food bowl or the tub of dry food. #DogsOfMastodon #MonDog #Nap
As promised, a self-portrait I knew I had to get as soon as I saw this Palo Blanco tree bark up close. #Bark #Peel #Paper #Tree
I’d like to know an ID for this type of ornamental tree used in architectural plans with businesses in the US Southwest. This is in Phoenix near the Banner Estrella Medical Center. Next post will be a fun one - a self-portrait in a closeup of the peeling bark. #Phoenix #Arizona #Tree #IDplease

@cobalt In my experience, that page doesn't refresh to tell you when your archive has finished. To be on the safe side, I'd try opening it again in a new window to see if it has completed.
