Now that I'm a little settled here in the Fediverse, I'm going to make my first major change and move to a different Mastodon instance. Wish me luck!

For those of you who are considering doing this as well, here is the guide I am following:

How to migrate from one server to another

With the sad news that KNZK was shutting down we thought it might be useful for people to have a refresher on the features that Mastodon has built in that make moving instances easy and painless. Backing up Your Data Data export If you are moving to a new instance the first thing you will want to do is to get a backup of all of your data. Thankfully this process is painless with the Data Export tab under the “Import and Export” page.

@Lockdownyourlife I hope you feel better!
@Lockdownyourlife There's a lot to be said for getting to set your own hours.

All,

The moment has finally arrived! 🥳

and I have been hard at work for the past week putting together a Mastodon instance so that we can create a backup disability and chronic illness community.

It can be found here:

https://disabled.social

For now, we have set up a terms of service, privacy policy, rules and best practices.

I have plans to set up a Twitter space to go through each of these with the disability community directly to add/subtract/reword things.

disabled.social

A place for people who are chronically ill, mentally ill, disabled, and friends/families/allies to come together, meet, share knowledge and random banter, and just about anything else.

Nothing quite like encountering TERF-supporting cis women to boost your cardio. Damn. How difficult is it to listen to trans people & accept that what they’re saying about their lived experiences is true? Like, if a trans person says a guest speaker is highly problematic & that they don’t feel comfortable attending the event because of this person being there, ADDRESS IT AS AN ORGANISER. It’s not a philosophical debate. Seriously. 🙄

From what I understand, the original brewmaster for the Great Lakes Christmas Ale went to Thirsty Dog and this is the result. I like it.

Hi friends! I'm a classical pianist and writer with an accidental reputation for 1) being funny/sarcastic, 2) championing the works of underrepresented composers, particularly women, and 3) making classical music generally fun/approachable/relatable.

You can hear me on your streaming service of choice, and read my writing in VAN Magazine or on my personal blog and Substack. Current projects include a world premiere of a new-ish piano concerto and a chapter in an upcoming book.
