being from #Pittsburgh is appreciating the ā€œgiftsā€ of andrew carnegie but would totally vilify him if he was alive Ć” la #musk

say what you want, but we have many cool resources and parks thanks to 19/20th century #greed

(our #library system is pretty dope šŸ¤“)

shitty in the sense that that’s what you get for paying attention lol

for those who have #YouTubeTV, do you sometimes get the opportunity to skip ads and get ā€œrewardedā€ with a ā€œmoment of zenā€?

it honestly seems like a manipulative tool to make sure you’re still watching, but with a wildlife shitty video before resuming content 🫄

Percussive Maintenance would be a great band name. for what genre, i do not know
loving @Ivory so far! only following and boosting for now..

I put "John Mastodon, CEO of Mastodon" into DALL-E 2 and this is what it spat out.

The second photo is him founding the company in the late 1990s in his college dorm room.

Tired: Tech writers dumping on Mastodon without having ever used it

Try commenting on a right wing website:

Racism, conspiracy theories, even advocating violence, all allowed. Mild criticism from the left? Banned.

But their people will come over to a place like Slate,and when they're banned for calling our LGBTQ commenters pedophiles they SCREAM that we're suppressing right wing opinion and against free speech.

They don't care. They don't even believe any of it themselves. It's all bullshit. Musk is like every moderator I've ever seen from that side.
