I'm genuinely curious to meet people who have had a great experience on #mastodon so far.

I am a big believer in the concept of the Fediverse and non-corporate/billionaire-owned social media. I remain skeptical that it will gain enough traction to be a truly viable replacement -- though I want to be wrong about that.

Serious question: What is the appropriate response when you overhear a neighbor having a domestic dispute that sounds...very concerning? I don't (ever) love the idea of calling the cops but I'm certain that doing nothing would be the wrong move.

Economics: Humans only value things monetarily.
Sociology: Uh, I don't ...
Economics: Humans are always rational and value is calculated by a complex inner calculus.

The waning days of DEI's dominance

The acronym for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion entered the common corporate lexicon with overwhelming force in 2020. Executives everywhere quickly learned they needed a passable position on DEI to stay employed, and a cottage industry of consultants sprung up to provide it.

Georgia has now outlawed abortion before most women know they are pregnant. I sure hope women in Georgia will make a point to get out and vote in the senate runoff.

Senator Warnock will protect your rights. Herschel the Hypocrite won't. His mistresses will still have options because he is rich. Most women won't.

So vote, damnit! And bring friends.

One of the things about Tumblr and potentially Flickr adopting ActivityPub is that it brings the feeling of mid-2000s internet back, when we had APIs and were encouraged to build cool new interconnections. Before the web was stolen from us by advertising companies.

I don’t want to alarm anyone regarding Mastodon but something strange just happened to me.
I started following a poet here on Mastodon two days ago. I really like his work. I had never heard of this poet or seen this poet ever before. My first and only interaction with this poet was here, two days ago.
I sign into Facebook, and I’m suggested this poet. This is not a coincidence. How does this happen?

Today’s poem is called ‘Fixtures’. It was written for a previous men’s football World Cup.
