I just love this photo of my Mandarina!

(P.S: I'm not very good with words, and my native language is not English, so please excuse the rather lousy media description. I'd appreciate suggestions for improvements)

When I was a teenager in the '90s, my boyfriend at the time gave me his old skateboard.

The trucks and wheels were fine, but the deck was heavily used and the design had been scraped off most of the bottom, so I took some paint markers and decorated it by painting a black and white checkerboard background with a large stormtrooper head in the foreground because Star Wars and ska were two of my favorite things at the time.

I was mostly just a poser and barely rode it and it remained in the back of my car for several years until I was at a sporting goods store and saw a kid doing tricks on a demo deck and I told him he was really good and he said "Thanks! I have to practice here because I don’t have a skateboard."

At that moment, I remembered my backseat skateboard and told him he could have it, but warned him that the "graphic" was kind of nerdy so he was more than welcome to draw/paint over it.

I went out to my car and grabbed the skateboard and brought it to the front of the store where the kid was waiting and he flipped it over and said "Whoa! Star Wars and ska?!? These are two of my favorite things!"

I’m so glad that skateboard finally found the right owner.

Heute mit den Fragen: Wann kommt die Maus ins #Fediverse Hat sie schon beim DiDay mitgemacht? Und werden #Plushtodon und der Elefant beste Freunde? 🐘

Die Maus vom #WDR ist bekannt dafür, auch komplexe Themen einfach und kindgerecht darstellen zu können. Schon 2001 hat die Maus "das Internet" erklärt (➡️ Link). 2026 wäre vielleicht ein guter Zeitpunkt, zu erläutern, was im Netz schief läuft und welche Probleme #SocialMedia für #Kinder mit sich bringt.

Liebe Maus, am 05. April ist der nächste #DiDay. Sprich doch mal mit @hyperjinx, der kennt sich hier schon ein bisschen aus und kann dir bestimmt zeigen, wie man einen Account anlegt. Du hast schon so viele Generationen begleitet, es freuen sich bestimmt ganz viele Menschen, wenn du Teil von #Mastodon & Co wirst! Zudem standest du schon immer für Neugierde, und dafür, die Welt zu einem besseren Ort zu machen. Das versuchen wir hier auch ❤️
