Sitting in a bar terrace (in Spain)and the next table to me are a bunch of loud “expat” (immigrant) Brits who are all banging on about how great Brexit is.

The irony of their conversation seems utterly lost.

It’s taking every ounce of self control I have not to but in and tell them what utter cretins they are.

I hear new people noting how chill, tolerant, and pleasant Mastodon is.

Mastodon isn’t chill or tolerant or pleasant. It’s a tool… a foundation on which to create and maintain a culture.

It’s those who’ve been on Mastodon, run servers, and served as admins who did the hard work and created the culture you now enjoy.

Now, it’s your turn. The only way it stays tolerant and chill is by us doing the work to keep it that way.

A good example of, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”
