Teenage Me: "So, in the 2020s is the world a corporate dystopia with cool looking motorcycles and everyone is constantly connected to a global information network?"
Time Travelling Me: [Dragging hands down own face] "I mean ... yeah. Sure. But it's so much fucking stupider than you're imagining it to be."
RT/Russia Today no longer has a “state-affiliated media” label.
Nice job, Elmo. You’re really doing great on this rapidly-declining shitshow.
Just a reminder to folks... don't rake your leaves (there are bumblebee queens and bugs and all manner of life that is part of the food chain in them), don't mow or poison your dandelions (there is bee food in them, not just for honey bees but for all the different kinds of pollinators that we so desperately need).

One thing I miss from Twitter when using Mastodon is the ability to click on a new account and see who else of my mutuals follow that account. It's a really useful first-pass filter to identify whether an account may be a troll, someone I know IRL, a friend of a friend, etc.
Federation makes this a little trickier, but definitely not impossible! Nothing a little caching can't solve for most use cases.

decided to pull a DeviantArt move and change its Terms Of Services to include anything you post there on their AI dataset, to re-publish your art and benefit from it without your consent or compensation.

I will only leave my contact information there, nothing else.
