Around 80% of long-standing #Mastodon users are currently explaining how to use Mastodon. So I'll join in by saying...

If you like a post then press the boost button. Liking a post is great and shows your appreciation but there's no other system functionality behind it. Boosting on the other hand, shares the post with a wider audience, which is the only way posts really get seen. Oh and use lots of hashtags as that's the best way to find specific content. #MastodonMigration #TwitterMigration

Three multibillionaires now own more wealth than the bottom half of America – 160 million Americans.

Don’t tell us we can’t afford a wealth tax on the super-rich.

Big Journalism is still largely unwilling to call things what they are. Today's example is the Washington Post's use of "vaccine hesitancy" to describe a movement that is based on rejecting science and evidence in favor of dangerous and, increasingly, politically motivated lies.

The people who reject vaccines are attacking their communities. They spread disease and death. We should recognize this, and say it out loud.
