Give her what she really wants this holiday season. Death to the patriarchy, an ancient tome of curses from the forest witch, the hearts of her enemies, and deep pockets in every dress and pair of pants.

It's freelance job hunting time!

I'm a very experienced audio producer/podcaster / videographer/editor / comms/social video person.

I'm based in Bristol UK (moving to Nottingham next spring hopefully!), fully kitted out with all my own equipment plus a car and clean licence, and very happy to work ad hoc and remotely.

I also play bass / guitar / sing / write songs / arrange songs / remote record/arrange/compose.

Your kind shares of this post are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

@grammargirl one of my favorite jokes from the 80s was about how “in China the word for crisis also means opportunity” but also “the word for Tibet also means China” and their definition of freedom of speech seems to also mean “oppression.”
Don’t allow your days to slip away aimlessly. Get organised, and squander your time according to a strict schedule.

I can't help but notice many toots from helpful newbies encouraging you to support the Mastodon Patreon.

It's fine to do that but understand it goes to just two big instances and the official Mastodon dev team.

It does NOT trickle down to YOUR instance. If you want to support your server, donate to it directly. Nearly all the costs of the explosive growth of the past few weeks is borne by local instances.

Mastodon is decentralized. There is no Mastodon Inc. This is not Twitter.

What a day! Thank you #NewUsers for being patient and understanding what a strain Mastodon is under. The performance issues you experienced today are not normal. As you can see things are running more smoothly now.

We witnessed the incredible resilience of a distributed system. Admins all over the world responded swiftly, and will manage future growth challenges too. This is the future of social media.

These are incredible people. Support your instance if you can.
