Two actions today.
1 A tradie came round to fix some leaks. I offered him a tea or coffee, and I've never received so much thanks for such a simple thing
2 A man dropped some shopping near me so I and another lady helped him pick it up. He was visibly choked by this small act and I asked if he was ok, and he mumbled that he was and we went our separate ways.
It strikes me that simple acts of kindness, community building camaraderie, treating people with respect and compassion, are anathema to some, if not many, people. Certainly the reactions I got today were over the top for things I consider to be basic courtesy type actions.
Be kind!

Huh, "Discord's age verification isn't as bad as people say", you might think?

Mastodon server admins, important news!
The Mastodon developers are going to stop suggesting mastodon.social as a "default server".

If your server matches these:
- General public server
- Running vanilla Mastodon
- Mastodon Covenant compliant
- Have existed for 1+ year
- Have shut-down & disaster plans
...then see this post for details: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/115989802617165343
