Want a quick profile who's on an instance? Checkout the emoticons. On mstdn.social/tusky, there's at least 500 🐱 . On mastodon desk browser, there's a good 100 🚋 / :objects: 🖊️ . and LOTS of 👫 👭 👬
I've multiple accounts only because of difficulty logging in from different devices. I would combine them, but my profiles are diverging as I respond to my audience(s). A friend on mstdn.social tells me "representation matters." I get it.

I made it to the first page of 'Explore Mastodon'. How did that happen? Persistence pays off I guess. Note to self: apply some persistence to website.

But I can't figure out how to navigate my logins between fediverse, mastodon.social and mstdn.social. I keep looking and discovering new rooms in the mastodon mansion, but am baffled.

People used to own their own websites in the pre-social media phase.

The ISP model was web hosting. Everyone would be a publisher. Everyone would have their own website.

Now the model is: you provide the content for someone else's website, for free. You don't own it, and it is used for a comprehensive surveillance system like the world has never seen to not only observe, but to manipulate and influence your affect and conduct. It is aggregated and used by every government and large corp.

Ballad of a Thin Man
Bob Dylan
"You raise up your head
And you ask, "Is this where it is?"
And somebody points to you and says
"It's his"
And you say, "What's mine?"
And somebody else says, "Well what is?"
And you say, "Oh my God
Am I here all alone?"

But something is happening
And you don't know what it is
Do you, Mister Jones?

Heart breaking news! 🙊

waiting to exhale... announcement of Kamala as VP and NOBODY LEAKED! Well they didn't need to. it was so obvious for months we all pretended to not know just so we had something to talk about. watchout for Trumpitter in Chief to scratch his toenails like a rabid dog in the vets kennel. Olé! May Trumps death angel give him a kiss like the manta ray gave to Steve Irwin.
Ha! Kamala Harris. I guessed it 3 months ago. Truly a no-brainer. Biden & Harris. It even sounds like a bumper sticker. 😌

@envgen When my father's dementia made him unable to comprehend spoken words, he still understood expressed emotion--just like infants do from birth.
