That early morning #autumn feeling in Epping #Forest.

It's that time of year when the nights become longer than the days, the mist starts to form on those cold mornings, & the leaves start to turn a glorious gold.

I hope everyone is having a great start to the week?

If not, remember that every day is a new day. It's a chance to wipe the slate clean & start afresh. Remember to be grateful for the little things in the world around you.❤️

Ghosts matter. This is a hill I will die upon.

They were like us once, human. These rich stories serve as portals to the past, conduits for everything that came before us and also everything that will be. They hold up a mirror to us, our own hopes, fears and isolation. They are history, legacy and memory.

Ghosts give us a chance to understand.

The Ghost barge of Ironbridge is a brilliant example of this.

My twitter followers are jumping ship. My engagement is dropping rapidly. They changed the algorithm to force feed me right wing accounts. And white supremacy, Islamophobia, & antisemitism on Twitter are being defended as valid points of view.

By contrast this Mastodon community is igniting robust dialogue, respectful disagreement, and offers little comfort to racists and bigots.

This is what Twitter could’ve been, and I’m really hopeful this is what Mastodon continues to be. Thank you all.❤️✊🏽
