I heard there might be a batch of Mastodon newcomers this week. So first of all:

WELCOME TO MASTODON!  ​ ​ ​

1. If you need some guidance from an external website, for you or to share with people that aren’t here yet, I wrote this little guide that might help: https://controlaltdelete.technology/articles/the-mastodons-guide-to-the-fediverse.html

8. And don't forget to HAVE FUN!  ​ ✨

Imagine in 20 years having to explain we used to have chocolate and coffee but we let a couple of guys destroy the earth so they could have all the money.

Future generations will think we're insane. We look back at cave people and think 'yeah nice finger paintings and bone tools you absolute idiots - we did planes and twitter'.

We are the cave people now. We are the idiots.

Remember, when the internet gets disbanded, don't blame Hasbro Interactive. They had nothing to do with it.

The only legitimate use of privilege is to help bring about the kind of world where you would not have had it to begin with.
