Epic fantasy aficionado, writer, artist, by night.

The header pic is my cat, Marx the Elusive Tine-Tine. She's super cute.

I'm politically progressive, a cishet he/him, and atheist AF. A philosophical anarchist with a small "a" (Hobbes was right). A democrat in any case.

I came home after running some errands, and there was a hawk who had just killed a mouse in the middle of my street.

"Even if Mastodon were to remain Twitter’s very tiny stepbrother, I would still like to be part of a Mastodon journalist community because I think we got lazy as a field, and we let Mark Zuckerberg, Jack Dorsey, and, god help us, Elon Musk and their staff decide all these major journalistic questions."

@adamdavidson talks with @Julia about his experience starting a Mastodon server for journalists.

"It’s really one of the best professional experiences of my life."

Anybody else not seeing what I’m not seeing?
@newfangl3d @blaine @realcaseyrollins @amirouche I think this is it exactly. I was never a Twitterer, so the QT thing is somewhat lost on me. But in line with the philosophy of consent here, why not make it an opt-in feature for those who want their toots to spread outside their own network?
